Three Different Ways to Minister to the Lord

What if the most powerful thing you could do wasn’t asking God for something, but instead, was simply ministering to Him? Gene Edwards takes us through three distinct biblical experiences to uncover how God teaches His children to pray: alone, as a whole church, and in focused small groups. Drawing on the narratives of Abraham, the Acts 12 church praying for Peter, and the prophets at Antioch, Gene Edwards illustrates that the Lord is the one who gives the prayer, and we are simply instruments. The message compels us to follow and pursue the Lord, staying before Him to receive the “twilight blessing” after He has shown Himself in brightness,. When brothers come together to minister to the Lord and fast, as the Antioch group did, they bear the true burden of the church’s life, and God can use that gathering to change the course of human history.
