Groups encourage, strengthen, help cover all the bases, find agreement. And there’s something helpful about meeting regularly too. Prayer isn’t just about getting what we want: Not my will, but yours..., Jesus prayed – having asked three of his disciple to watch with him (Mt 26:39). And we’re promised answers to prayers ‘in Jesus’ name’, with faith that what we ask is actually God’s will (Mt 21:22; Jn 14:13). As for how long we should pray, Jesus encourages pe...
