This Means War!

     We are at war against an invisible Enemy that wants to steal, kill and destroy our lives. This kind of battle can only be won through spiritual warfare. Prayer is our most powerful weapon.

     The Bible says that we don’t fight our battles the same way that the world does.

     We use our powerful God-tools for smashing warped philosophies, tearing down barriers erected against the truth of God, fitting every loose thought and emotion and impulse into the structure of life shaped by Christ. -- the Message (2 Cor. 10:4)

     Jesus died, raised Himself to life, and ascended into Heaven to give you the God-tools you would need to be victorious. The Word of God is your most powerful defense. Take up this “sword of the Spirit” and engage in spiritual warfare by praying God’s Word over your life and circumstances. If you will do so every day, you will be sure to overcome defeat.

     At ePray.org, we believe that the foundation of spiritual warfare is faith in Jesus Christ and the work that He completed at the cross. While we go about our daily lives of work and play, let us not forget that everyone here at ePray.org is in a battle-- one that Christ has already won!

Why Daily Prayer Matters

     If two married people only talked once in a while, sure they might stay married, but would they enjoy the healthy, life-giving exchange that God intends for husbands and wives to share?

     Probably not.

     Jesus made it possible for us to enjoy an intimate relationship with God. The best way that we can effectively do that is by communicating with God through prayer each and every day. At ePray.org, we come together to support and encourage each other in our daily prayer lives. Why?

     Because God wants us to THRIVE in our relationship with Him.

     You can experience a vital connection with God through daily prayer. At ePray.org, you are not alone when you pray. You have a daily invitation to join with others who are also seeking after the heart of God.

     Daily prayer has the power to change our circumstances. More importantly, daily prayer has the power to transform our hearts so that we can enjoy a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ.

It is only the life abiding wholly in Christ that can pray the effective prayer in the Name of Christ.--Andrew Murray

Morning Prayer: It's Not Just For Morning People.

     We all have prefered times, modes, and postures of prayer. Our unique prayer lives are one of the many things that make up the beautiful body of Christ. Even though we have full access to the heart of God and the community at epray.org morning, noon, and night, consider the words of the Psalmist, David:

     ...Every morning you’ll hear me at it again. Every morning I lay out the pieces of my life on your altar and watch for fire to descend. (Psalm 5:1-3 MSG)

     You have audience with God and with the community here at epray.org any time of the day or night. But, there is something special about the quiet stillness at the break of a new day. Morning prayer is a chance to meditate on the truth that God’s mercies are new for THIS day. It is a moment to open up the sacred spaces of your heart to the Lord before the pressing concerns of the day are allowed to invade. It is true that God is always listening. The question is:

     When are you most likely to hear Him speak?

     Some of us are morning people. Some of us prefer to hit the snooze button once or twice. But what if we approached our morning prayer time like the Psalmist, David? By laying out the scattered pieces of our lives before God first thing in the morning, we can freely go about our day knowing that He has a plan to fit them all together.
