“Pray for US”
Sermon by Pastor Joy Matos
Order Of Worship
SUMMARY: The Power of United Prayer
Pastor Joy Matos emphasizes the critical importance of prayer, both individual and corporate, for spiritual growth and effective ministry. Drawing from scriptures like Hebrews 13 and Matthew 18, the sermon highlights that even prominent biblical figures such as the author of Hebrews and the Apostle Paul frequently requested prayers from their congregations. The pastor also shares anecdotes from Christian leaders like Billy Graham, Dixon Edward Hoste and Edward McKendee Bounds, who all underscored prayer as fundamental to God’s work. Ultimately, the message encourages the congregation to actively engage in prayer, recognizing it as a shared responsibility that fosters unity and empowers God to work in and through them. The sermon concludes by announcing new prayer initiatives within the church, aiming to put this vital principle into practice.
