It is so sad to see churches no longer having the mid-week prayer meeting. Once a must have, now an expendable item. Every Bible believing, Bible preaching church needs to assemble for the mid-week prayer meeting. Listed below are some of my reasons for having it!
Top 10 Reasons To Have A Mid-Week Prayer Meeting
(Hebrews 10:25) “Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.” (KJV)
- It is an opportunity to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ.
- It is an opportunity to share prayer requests that have come up since Sunday and have a service focused more on the activity of prayer.
- It is an opportunity to meet corporately and have good Christian fellowship.
- It is an opportunity to have a spiritual boost during the week.
- It is an opportunity to share information that has changed or arisen since Sunday.
- It is an opportunity for the community to come to church. Fewer and fewer churches are affording the community with the option of a mid-week prayer meeting.
- It is an opportunity to take up special offerings.
- It is an opportunity to have missionary presentations.
- It is an opportunity to have specialized children’s programs like Master Clubs, etc.
- It is an opportunity to let more people use their spiritual gifts.
Conclusion…
There are many more reasons why fundamental churches should have a mid-week prayer meeting. It suffices to say that they are a real blessing and provide opportunities for service that otherwise would not be available. Be sure to back the mid-week prayer meeting!
