DAY 30 - 6 KINDS OF PRAYER: AGREEMENT

Based on the article “Six Kinds of Prayer”, by Frederick Price.  Original article can be found HERE.

Matthew 18:19-20
“I also tell you this: If two of you agree here on earth concerning anything you ask, my Father in heaven will do it for you. For where two or three have gathered together in My name, I am there in their midst."

Many Christians aren't aware that there are several “types” of prayer discussed in God's Word.  Consider, over the next six days, how each type of prayer might help you in your conversations with God.

The First Prayer - The Prayer of Agreement
In Matthew 18:19, Jesus introduced the prayer of agreement when He said, “If two of you agree here on earth concerning anything you ask, my Father in heaven will do it for you.”
This is an interesting concept, and something worth pondering.  There is obvious power in people praying together, bound in unity and agreement.  Too often we keep our prayers personal, restricted only to ourselves.  Yet Jesus makes it clear, that if you and another person (or several people) can be unified in belief, resolution, intent - there will be a uniquely powerful form of prayer.

PRAYER #30 - Prayer of Agreement  
Consider this challenge:  find someone to pray with.  Find another person - someone you trust, someone you find agreement with.  This could be a spouse, a friend, a mentor.  Pray with them.  Pray with boldness and expectation.  Put the Matthew 18 Promise to the test, and see what God will do!
