The early church shows us that when it came to gathering, prayer was essential. But it wasn’t just something they did—it was something God used to work through them. Imagine a large, outdoor bonfire. As each person arrives, they add some wood to the fire to make it grower larger and burner hotter. Prayer in worship is like adding fuel to a bonfire. Without it, the flame dwindles. With it, the Spirit ignites passion, unity, and mission.
