Megaphone Towards Heaven

It was small group time tonight. Four of us guys gathered around pizza and pasta while we talked about God, our lives, jobs, church and our daily walk with Jesus. As always, it was awesome to just be surrounded by people who make a positive influence in your life, making you want to pursue higher goals for yourself.

Prayer time was simple but powerful. Have you ever tried listening to a person while he prays for you? Didn’t you ever wonder why that person would have the audacity to ask God for things in your behalf?

When a brother prays for you, some spiritual value gets added to your life. It’s as if your faint voice suddenly reverberates loudly in the throne room of God like you used a megaphone because it’s not just you who is asking, you got two or three people rallied behind you to ask God for whatever it is that you need.

God is compelled to listen to a group of people praying the same prayer. You know why? Aside from the fact that He is hearing multiple voices agreeing in unison, He is the one who promised so. “I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by my Father in heaven.” Matt. 18: 19

    Well said!!

    Small groups is for me the place where I get heavy spiritual content added to my life. Being with my brothers and sisters in Christ and just basking in the presence of the Lord with them, makes life worth living for me. And then, like you say, if they pray on your behalf for something, there is just that added bit of growth that takes place for me.
