The Son of God gave us this promise with His name and honor, “You may ask me
for anything in my name, and I will do it (John 14:14). It means that we are
guaranteed and all we have to do is pray. According to His word the living Son of
God said, when we pray depending on this word, the answer surely follows in
accordance with His pleasure and will.
However, Christians take it for granted that patients with a serious disease pray
and are not healed. It proves that this generation does not recognize God and live
without Him. We should be surprised with no answer, and think of the fact that our
prayers are followed by their answers.
Our church prays together for a long time after the sermon. If you listen to the
sermon and find out your sins, you should repent and pray according to the word
you heard. This is because we should restore the right spiritual relationship with
God. In addition, this is for teaching the saints what they should pray, providing
the power to pray, and improve their faith.
There is a difference between the prayer that is said when the saints want to pray
and the prayer the Lord's servant leads. Although the saints come to church and
pray for a few days, there is often no answer. However, when the Lord's servant
tells us to pray, there is often the answer. Prayer after a sermon is the time when
God works absolutely and the time when we focus on our prayers and our exact
prayers reach to God.
Nowadays, it is said that a number of churches do not cry out to God after a
sermon. The church which prays revives. Revival is not just for certain individuals
to pray, but for all the church members. People who do not pray cannot be a
driving force of revival. God’s people, let's pray for revival!
