101 Prayer Points for Church Growth - How to Pray for Church Growth

By Emmanuel Allotey

Prayer is important to church growth as the church is under the sovereignty of God. The growth of the church will come from God because increase comes from Him. All committed Christians have a responsibility to pray for the growth of the church of God. Anything that does not grow becomes a burden. Growth is possible when you learn to pray Bible-based prayers. Many pastors and church leaders pray for their church to grow, but many don’t have a clear-cut vision and scriptural basis for their prayer, hence don’t see the growth they so desire. 

As you read this book you will be motivated to see prayer as a key to church growth and you will learn about how to pray for the growth of your church. Furthermore, you will learn about life changing aspects of prayer including faith, the Holy Spirit, grace, the will of God, confessions and warfare. Praying for the salvation of souls is a great thing that we must all give ourselves to. This is a book on prayer which is easy to read, understand and apply. Your faith for church growth will increase as you read, giving rise to a new dimension for your church to grow as you pray faithfully using the points outlined in the book.

Prayer is a Master Key to Church Growth

Asking is a fundamental requirement for God to do anything for us on earth. To ensure that God answers our prayers, it’s important to ask God for things that He has instructed us in His word to ask. Many of our prayers are not answered because we are not praying according to the will of God. One of the great things God wants us to ask Him for is the heathen. He has promised to give us the heathen for our inheritance.

An inheritance is something valuable, and God wants us to pray for valuable and eternal things. Praying for the salvation of a soul is a great thing that we must all give ourselves to. The salvation of a soul is very precious to God.

There are times you need to spend many hours in prayer in order to breakthrough opposing forces to the growth of the church. Also, for the church to grow we must commit every aspect
