VERY easy to misunderstand this message, prayer is not a mere ministry focus but the eternal identity when in resurrected bodies in the New Heaven and Earth, most think prayer is important and painfully admit we don't do it much, Christians do not see it as their identity, where God speaks to our hearts and we speak to His heart, ALL ministry is a house of prayer - know it or not - or it is not God's ministry and YWAM perspective of missions, of 100 favorite verses Isaiah 42 sing a new song, prayer for nations is a call for God to come near and ultimately return, pray FOR Jesus means for His ADMINISTRATION, prayer meeting was first after the Red Sea was parted and first building commanded was for prayer, Jesus began in prayer, Acts - the Church was borne in a prayer meeting and ends in prayer and in the New Earth forever, the Word must move our heart to speak in prayer and we must declare war on everything that interrupts that process
