Description

Prayer should be a priority for every servant of God. It is life’s greatest time-saver and is essential to a ministry leader’s personal life, leadership, teaching, and relationships. If we don’t spend time on our knees before the Lord, we will find our ministries fail to have a lasting impact for the kingdom of God.

In this message, Dr. Stanley shares how prayer turns our persecution into the most profitable preparation for future blessing and ministry. Nothing occurs without God allowing it, and that’s why we must accept all things as coming from Him. Remember, the Father uses everything to accomplish His great plans for our lives.

In these moments of conflict, the right response is standing in prayer—because the safest place in the world to be is in the center of God’s will. Pray so you don’t focus on your enemies, but on God. After all, no enemy can argue with the will of God, and, if they try, they will have to live with the negative consequences, not you.
