Prayer not only helps with the personal circumstances of life that benefit oneself and others, but beyond that, it also impacts kingdom and ministry purposes that help us to effectively minister to people. Notice that in prayer a powerful anointing is released and imparted in which many times you can identify with that same anointing that surfaces in various areas of ministry that you are involved in. Whether you teach, preach, lead a department, witness, play music, sing, or whatever service you render in Christ, that ministry or service becomes much more effective and powerful when it is reinforced with a prayer lifestyle. Prayer helps you to stay focused on your calling. Prayer should play a major role in every ministry in the Church worldwide. The simplicity of prayer makes it accessible to everyone, from the youngest to the oldest, in any ministry. The power of prayer, which is active in ministry through us, can forever change the course of temporal and eternal affairs for the better.

 

Prayer is Rewarding. Through prayer, you will receive and reap! Prayer has the power to turn people from the power of Satan to the power of God. “To open their eyes, and to turn them … from the power of Satan unto the power of God … ” (Acts 26:18) So, reap the harvest! Receive God’s empowerment and divine ability and do greater works! “ … He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do …” (John 14:12) Reap all the benefits of prayer! “ … the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following.” (Mark 16:20) Allow the Spirit of God to demonstrate, unto His glory! “And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power” (I Corinthians 2:4).

 

Pray and ask the Lord to help you in your ministry of calling.

Through praying to the Almighty God in your communication and relationship with Him, He can anoint you from “head” to “toe” in ministry, and in all things for Him. You are complete in Him, lacking nothing! (Colossians 2:10, Psalm 23:1)
