There is a single challenge facing the church of God these days, and it is a disciplined prayer life. At times, the church focuses on everything except prayer. When the church understands the importance of prayer, it also experiences the power of God. When the church's prayer life is strong, all problems meet solutions. All difficulties eventually disappear when prayer life is revived and becomes a vital and powerful part of a Christian's spirituality. Prayer is the life of the church's individual members, its worship, its ministering, and of its varied experiences.
