Does Prayer Actually Work? · With Authority · September 27, 2026
Notice what John puts first: we ask according to His will. The enemy wants us to project our own will so we will be disappointed when God doesn't obey us. Jesus doesn't hype up or lie about who He is and what He does — and neither should our expectations. So this week, ask someone if you can pray with them. Stop, talk, pray. Don't say “I will be praying for you” and walk away — actually pray right there.
Father, this week I will pray out loud, right where I am — not for my expectation, but for Your will. Put someone in front of me, and let Your name be praised in the room.
