The Power of Prayer

The Power of Prayer 

Acts 2:42 


They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.


James 5:13-14 


13 Is any one of you in trouble? He should pray. Is anyone happy? Let him sing songs of praise. 


14 Is any one of you sick? He should call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord.


Acts 4:24 


When they heard this, they raised their voices together in prayer to God. “Sovereign Lord,” they said, “you made the heaven and the earth and the sea, and everything in them.


Mark 16:16 


Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.
Acts 28:10 


They honored us in many ways and when we were ready to sail, they furnished us with the supplies we needed.


Colossians 1:3 


We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you,


Amos 3:5-15 


5 Does a bird fall into a trap on the ground where no snare has been set? Does a trap spring up from the earth when there is nothing to catch?


6 When a trumpet sounds in a city, do not the people tremble? When disaster comes to a city, has not the LORD caused it?


7 Surely the Sovereign LORD does nothing without revealing his plan to his servants the prophets.


8 The lion has roared— who will not fear? The Sovereign LORD has spoken— who can but prophesy?


9 Proclaim to the fortresses of Ashdod and to the fortresses of Egypt: “Assemble yourselves on the mountains of Samaria; see the great unrest within her and the oppression among her people.”


10 “They do not know how to do right,” declares the LORD, “who hoard plunder and loot in their fortresses.”


11 Therefore this is what the Sovereign LORD says: “An enemy will overrun the land; he will pull down your strongholds and plunder your fortresses.”


12 This is what the LORD says: “As a shepherd saves from the lion's mouth only two leg bones or a piece of an ear, so will the Israelites be saved, those who sit in Samaria on the edge of their beds and in Damascus on their couches.”


13 “Hear this and testify against the house of Jacob,” declares the Lord, the LORD God Almighty.


14 “On the day I punish Israel for her sins, I will destroy the altars of Bethel; the horns of the altar will be cut off and fall to the ground.


15 I will tear down the winter house along with the summer house; the houses adorned with ivory will be destroyed and the mansions will be demolished,” declares the LORD.
