When the church needs to pray
from Grace Bible Fellowship Hosted by Alan Simmons
In this message, Brother Alan Simmons shares how the book of James has a dual message for the believer and the church - the assembly of believers in the same chapter! Using chapter 5, Bro. Alan explains how the chapter is focused on how we, the individual believer, is to live a life as if we are ready for Jesus to return at any moment. He explains how this mindset is important because it affects everything we do. He discusses how it helps us face those who mock the faith we have in our Lord, just as it did in Enoch's day and in the days of the first century church. But James' epistle doesn't stop there. He discusses the importance of prayer - and Bro. Alan explains how many churches do not set aside time to come together as a congregation to pray. He asks a rhetorical question based on James' statement - the fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much, how much could the church accomplish if the congregation gathered and lifted their voices in prayer?
