You are called to pray

God has a wonderful plan by which you can have a worldwide influence. This plan is not just for a chosen few. It is for you. Let me tell you about it.
God has great expectations for you and me. He has every right. The average person has more ability to influence others Today than before. This is especially true for Christians.

Through the tremendous help of the media, and the expanding technology, we have the facilities to speed up God's work beyond anything we have yet known. We can reach the farthest nation more quickly, we can present the gospel in more languages, and we have the means to recruit and guide prayer for the whole world more efficiently. We can reach our world, If we will. The greatest lack today is not people or funds. The greatest need is prayer. We could see multiplied results if we would only multiply prayer.

There have been outstanding prayer saint over the centuries. By no means do we forget them or the tremendous histcry-changing role they played through prayer. Thank God for James, the half brother of Jesus, who spent the latter years of his life praying for the churches God was raising up. When he died and his body was prepared for burial, it was found that his knees were so calloused from hours and hours of kneeling that they were almost resembled the knees of a carmel.
There's no reason in the world why you cannot  become so steadfast in your personal prayer life that Christ will count on you to help build His church and advance His kingdom in many parts of the world. Beginning with your family, your church, and your community, you can play a significant part through normal daily prayer that will make a difference, even in distant lands.

Again and again God has used persons like you and me to help Him meet special emergency prayer needs on a particular day or occasion. When He calls on someone for this special and temporary role, He usually selects one of His children who has been praying faithfully and consistently.
You don't have to spend hours each day to qualify for God's prayer army. Thank God for those who can and do pray like that. But He knows the limitations of your own situation, your schedule, your home, your employment responsibilities. His plan is intended to add a whole new dimension to your prayer life. Whether you are a business executive or a housewife, a factory worker or a student, a layman or a minister of the gospel, God desires for you to begin a thrillingly new and more effective life of prayer. You can have new power and effectiveness in prayer. Prayer is the greatest resource of the church. It is the most effective means of preparing the way of the Lord available to us as Christians today. You yourself can influence more people for God and have a greater role in advancing Christ's cause by prayer than any other way. It is not the only thing you must do but it is the greatest thing you can do.

The devil trembles when he sees God's weakest child upon his knees.

If that's true, think what could happen if every Christian really took his prayer role seriously and began to pray regularly and specifically, uniting with thousands or millions of others all praying for the same priority needs around the world. Are you willing to be a part of such a prayed army?
