Why United Prayer is Important

Prayer in Every City is a new ministry dedicated to promoting united prayer throughout America. Our goal is to have 1200 prayer groups meeting on a regular basis, whether it be weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly. There are many websites dedicated to prayer for America, but this one is different because of the empasis on united prayer.

Many of the Great Awakenings in the past were a direct result of people meeting together to pray. The early church in the book of Acts met regularly to pray. When Peter was released from prison by an angel, he found many praying together at Mary’s house. Before the Holy Spirit came down at Pentecost, there were over 120 followers of Christ who were continually devoting themselves to prayer. Jesus said that, “His house should be a house of prayer for all the nations” (Mark 11:17). Jesus also said, “where two or three have gathered together in My name, I am there in their midst” (Matt. 18:20).  According to this verse, Jesus will attend your prayer meeting when two are praying together.

If we want to have effective prayers for our nation, we need to pray biblically, in one accord and with a right heart. The posts on this blog will be designed to teach you how to pray effective prayers. We will learn how to move the hand of God to pour out his Spirit on the churches in America.
