Believe OR Worry?

Joel Osteen Ministries

'It takes the same amount of energy to believe as it does to worry. You can use your energy to worry, or you can spend that same energy saying, “Father, thank You that You’re supplying all of my needs.” '

AGREEMENT IN PRAYER by Pastor Sam Adeyemi



Mathew 18: 18-20
Jesus taught us that one of the factors which makes prayer effective is agreement. Some people call this the prayer of agreement. When we walk together with others, God’s creativity is unleashed (Genesis 1:26; 11:6). The issue of agreement in prayer is not just a formula. It is much more than the holding of hands when praying or praying about the same prayer points. For us to get heaven to work in our situations, we need to align with the pattern of heaven. It is also important that our prayer points should be in alignment with God’s will (1 John 5:14). Unity is absolutely necessary if corporate prayer is going to be effective. Jesus lets us know that what makes our prayers powerful and effective is His presence; not our eloquence, volume or posture when praying (Matthew 18:20). Agreement in prayer guarantees the presence of Jesus and His presence guarantees miracles.
