Beyond the Weekend: Powerful Prayers
Powerful Prayers A 7-Week Series | May 10–June 21
What does it really mean to pray?
Prayer is one of those things most people think about but aren't sure they're doing right. Is God actually listening? Does it matter what you say? Does prayer even work?
This series digs into some of the most powerful prayers in the Bible. From the Lord's Prayer to Daniel's cry in a crisis, we'll see what happens when ordinary people bring their real lives to God.
Whether you've prayed your whole life or you're not even sure God is real, this series is for you.
50 Days of Prayer | Prayer Day 49
PRAYER DAY #49: Throughout these 50 Days of Prayer, we’ve grown together in prayer. We've used Hannah’s example to bring our sorrow and deep emotions to God in lament, asking him to move and trusting his character (1 Samuel 1:1-18). We’ve prayed Jehoshaphat’s prayer for when we feel overwhelmed: "We don't know what to do, but our eyes are on you" (2 Chronicles 20:12). We looked at Solomon’s prayer of dedication and prayed with adoration, confession, thanksgiving, and supplication (1 Kings 8:22-51). We followed Paul’s prayer for overflowing, insightful, and reflective love (Philippians 1:9-11). We learned from Daniel’s model of reading and responding to Scripture in prayer (Daniel 9:1-19). And we prayed Paul's prayer for a worthy life (Colossians 1:9-14). Pick one of these prayers to return to today, and pray it for our church. Pray we would continue to grow in prayer, impacting our families, friends, and community for the gospel.
If you haven’t shared a story yet about how you have grown in prayer throughout this 50 Days of Prayer challenge, we would love to hear from you! Please share a sentence or two with us HERE.
