Prayers

Our team gathers daily in Prayer.

“After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.”

Matthew 6:9–13 (KJV)

Prayer is central to our faith. Through prayer, we commune with God, seek His will, and place our trust in His unfailing love. In every season of life — whether marked by joy, uncertainty, or hardship — prayer draws us closer to Him and aligns our hearts with His purpose.

We believe in the power of prayer. Prayer connects us to God, brings peace to our hearts, and invites His presence into every area of our lives. No matter where you are in your journey, prayer is a place of hope, healing, surrender, and renewed faith.

Prayer is more than words — it is:

  • An act of worship, honoring God for who He is

  • A personal connection with God, where we speak honestly and listen for His guidance

  • A means of surrender, placing our needs and concerns in His loving hands

  • A source of comfort and peace, especially in times of uncertainty

  • A source of strength and assurance, firmly rooted in God’s promises

  • A way to lift others up, bringing their needs before God in love

  • An expression of faith, trusting that God hears every prayer and faithfully responds

When His disciples asked how to pray, Jesus gave us a simple yet powerful model:

“After this manner therefore pray ye:
Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil:
For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.”

Matthew 6:9–13 (KJV)

This prayer teaches us reverence, dependence on God, forgiveness, and complete trust in His sovereignty.

Heavenly Father,
We come before You with grateful hearts, acknowledging Your holiness and grace. Teach us to trust You fully, to seek Your will above our own, and to rest in Your perfect peace. Meet every need, heal every burdened heart, and guide us in Your truth.
For Yours is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory forever.
Amen.
