Brothers' Prayer

We were so much helped by a brother's fellowship on the importance of prayer both individually and corporately and the urgency of such prayer for the Lord to move. As the Lord has been gracing us to shepherd the flock of God in our locality, the only way to do so is by the Lord's shepherding life flowing into us and through us in prayer. With this burden we selected a day and a time for prayer; pray-reading the word of God and praying the word itself.

Since we began this practice few months ago I personally feel very blessed to be a apart of such a brothers' meet, solely for prayer. We came together and pray-read a verse. It was amazing how rich the word of God is. We could pray-read just a phrase, not even a verse, for more than an hour. Every word of the phrase of the Bible verse is so rich. The more we dwell on it , the deeper it becomes, and sweeter by and by. 

And every time we come together, the Lord would give us a verse or two to pray-read through any one of us. The Lord knew exactly which verse we should pray-read, and gave us the best verse for that time of the day. 

On top of this pray-reading, the Lord's burden was also made known to us concerning His church in Gurgaon. Each prayer time will ensue in specific, strategic and intercessory prayer for some new ones whom the Lord has blessed us with. 

Everytime we enjoyed the brothers' prayer, I had a deep realization within my being that all that we prayed for were already answered. Though outwardly they may seem yet to be fulfilled, yet in the eyes of faith I can already comprehend its complete accomplishment. 

Praise the Lord for this wonderful way of brothers' prayer. The more, the better.

Lord, grace us ever to be praying brothers, even in oneness and one accord in a blended way in the brothers' prayer.
