The Importance of Prayer

Welcome to the Wisdom International Global Prayer Team! We are so glad that you have chosen to join us in prayer. Our desire is to distribute Bible teaching resources worldwide, with the goal of helping people KNOW what God's Word says, UNDERSTAND what it means, and APPLY it to their lives. We believe God's Word, accompanied by prayer, is the key to personal transformation.

Prayer is God's means of welcoming us into His presence and allowing us to connect and commune with Him. In these moments of communion, we worship God, express our gratitude, seek guidance, and share our deepest concerns and hopes for ourselves and others. Here are some reasons why prayer is so important:

  1. Strengthens our relationship with God: Prayer allows us to nurture our personal relationship and grow closer to God. Through consistent and heartfelt prayers, we develop a deeper understanding of God's presence in our lives.
  2. Encourages personal growth: In prayer, we reflect on our lives and actions, seeking wisdom and guidance. God uses this introspection and communication with Him to bring about personal growth and a stronger sense of purpose.
  3. Brings comfort and hope: Prayer provides solace in times of difficulty, helping us navigate the challenges that life may present. It reminds us that we are never alone because God is always immediately present with us. Prayer reminds us that there is always hope, even in the darkest of times.
  4. Unites communities: Prayer can bring people together, transcending boundaries of race, culture, and socio-economic status. Through shared prayer, we foster a sense of unity, compassion, and empathy, ultimately creating strong and supportive bonds of community.

We are honored that you have chosen to join this community as we pray for each other and this ministry. By praying together, we can strengthen our faith, uplift each other, and bring the needs of the world before our Father in heaven. We invite you to visit here often to learn how you can pray specifically for this ministry. We also invite you to submit your prayer requests so that we may pray for you.

Let us stand together in faith, united by the power of prayer.
