Every Tuesday night at 7:15 in the evening, people go to the SFCC Worship Hall and there, they spend an hour and a half praying and praising God. As soon as we could talk in syllables, our parents teach us how to say our prayers, and rightly so. Even in our limited human understanding, we know that we need a Higher Being to help us get through life. We pray for a variety of reasons. We come to God with our specific requests, believing His promise that He hears our prayers. Our prayers are not in vain, even if we do not receive specifically what we asked for ( Rom. 8:26-27 ). He has promised that when we ask for things that are in accordance with His will, He will give us what we ask for. At Praise & Prayer, the congregation basically prays in unison and in agreement with one another. There are specific prayer points flashed on the screen for every area ( church services, ministry teams, programs, projects, mission teams, etc.). Anyone can submit a prayer request either verbally, via mail, or text message. After Praise & Prayer, there is free dinner at the courtyard for everyone. Here, people get to have fellowship and create bonds with one another. SFCC has a lot to be thankful for, having hundreds of ready prayer warriors each week joining together in earnest prayer. God desires to communicate with us. He loves hearing from us. He also loves to tell us things—wonderful things beyond our imagination. So let’s keep on praying and enjoy the direct access we have with our Heavenly Father.
Ex. 15:21 “Sing to the Lord, for He has triumphed gloriously!”
