What a Privilege to Carry - Everything to God in Prayer


When we decided to draw up guidelines for prayer time, the intention wasn’t to tell us “how” to pray.  They were suggestions to keep us focused on the many reasons 'Christ In Pogo came to be.  Those being, the Ministry of 'Christ In Pogo', it's members and their prayer requests and to help us be guided to those in Pogo who aren't Christians or have backslidden and to grant us wisdom in how to reach them. Current events including natural catastrophes, our soldiers, and missionaries are also prayed for.  This doesn't mean that if a person is led by the Holy Spirit to pray for a different purpose, they are restrained.

We are often found speaking praises to our Heavenly Father, one after the other and His presence is felt!  We are indeed blessed during prayer time!

If anyone has been offended by the guidelines, we apologize as this was far from our intention.  Prayer is God's appointed way of doing God's work. The guidelines are not rules or commandments.  We are not obligated to follow them if God prompts us differently through the Holy Spirit.

Jesus set the perfect example of prayer.  Although His day was filled from morning to night with many pressures and responsibilities – He made prayer a top priority.

Praising and worshiping God with other believers is one of the most powerful and significant things we can do in our lives.  Worship through prayer causes bondages to be broken, and it makes the way for wonderful changes in us that might not ever happen otherwise.  God wants us to praise Him together with other believers.  "I will declare Your name to My brethren; in the midst of the assembly I will sing praise to You." ~ Hebrews 2:12

 






No matter what our church background is or has been, we need to ask God to make us into the true worshipers He wants us to be.  We all pray differently.  We need to be considerate and respectful of our varied Christian backgrounds and thank God that He made each of us different – but He made us in His image.

To those who come to prayer – we thank you for following the Lord’s promptings to praise Him each night with us.  "Praise the Lord!  For it is good to sing praises to our God; for it is pleasant, and praise is beautiful." ~ Psalm 147:1  For those who haven’t been there yet, you don’t know what you’re missing!  Please join us!

"But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him.  God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth." ~ John 4:23-24
