The joy of praying together

Every Tuesday morning the leaders of Kristent Fellesskap have met together for prayer for many years now, and I still find great joy in praying with my fellow servants of the Lord. This morning we were only nine brothers, but we had a wonderful time together in the presence of God. We meet six o'clock in the morning and sometimes some of our friends oversleep. We start by reporting and updating one another and by sharing insight from the Word of God, but spend most of the time just praying together.

This morning we sensed that the Lord is promising us a spiritual breakthrough in the work, the churches and in our nation, even though we have to change some of our plans and trust the Lord only.

There is great joy in praying together in the presence of God. We come closer to God and each other when we pour out our hearts before the Lord. When we pray together we come to know each other after the Spirit and not after the flesh. In prayer we discover that we are actually kindred spirits! We are carrying the same burdens. We are having the same longings and dreams. And we all focus on the Lord as our source!

It is a great privilege to be part of a leadership group that prays together. It is good to work together, but even better to pray together!

    I agree. Most of the time I pray with our brothers and sisters in heaven, where before I did not have a close brothers/sisters relationship with them, I know feel closer to them, and I love them with all of my heart, and I can say that they are truly my true brothers and sisters.
