Think About It … What do you most miss when the power goes out? Peter Deyneka, founder of the Slavic Gospel Association wrote, “Much Prayer, Much Power” – Without prayer, we are lacking in spiritual power – Today we look at Paul’s emphasis on prayer in the church

Listen for how and when to pray. Ephesians 6:18 (NIV) And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.

Pray for Each Other What are words and phrases Paul uses to describe the nature of our praying as believers? Paul has just finished talking about Spiritual Armor. How do you think these verses are related to those concepts? What words emphasize the constancy and the comprehensiveness of our prayers?

Pray for Each Other What does it mean to watch (be alert or on guard) ? What are some synonyms for “alert” Why are these characteristics important in our prayer lives? What would happen if a person’s prayer life or study of the word decreased ?

Pray for Each Other What obstacles prevent us from praying as Paul instructs in this verse? How can the command to pray at all times influence our daily routines in a practical sense?

Listen for a prayer request list. Ephesians 6:19-21 (NIV) Pray also for me, that whenever I open my mouth, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel, 20 for which I am an ambassador in chains. Pray that I may declare it fearlessly, as I should. 21 Tychicus, the dear brother and faithful servant in the Lord, will tell you everything, so that you also may know how I am and what I am doing.

Pray for Church Leaders For what needs did Paul ask the Ephesians to pray? What keeps us from being more aware of our church leaders’ prayer needs? What are some ways we can organize and prioritize our prayer ministry?

Pray for Church Leaders Though some may have thought he was a prisoner, how did Paul see his himself? Why do you think he felt that way? As an ambassador, how did Paul aspire to speak? When Paul spoke, what did he want his speaking to accomplish?

Listen for details about Paul’s helper. Ephesians 6:21-22 (NIV) 21 Tychicus, the dear brother and faithful servant in the Lord, will tell you everything, so that you also may know how I am and what I am doing. 22 I am sending him to you for this very purpose, that you may know how we are, and that he may encourage you.

Pray Specifically What tasks did Paul have in mind as he sent Tychicus? What were Tychicus’ credentials for such a mission? Paul had Tychicus. How can we use the tools at our disposal to more fully support each other through prayer?

Pray Specifically What effect does praying for others have on your own spiritual growth? When you know people are praying for you, how does it impact the way you feel and behave?

Application Pray for salvation – Start praying this week for the salvation of at least one person – Write their name in a place where you will see it regularly to remind you to pray – Persevere in prayer for these folks who need Jesus

Application Pray for church leaders – As part of your regular prayer time – Commit to pray at least 5 minutes for you pastor(s) and church leaders – Ask them how you may pray for them

Application Pray for at least one missionary every day for 30 days – Write or them and tell them you are praying – Ask them for specific needs they have
