WHAT IS A PRAYER  WALL?  By Pastor Kevin Schuessler

A prayer wall is a spiritual wall that is a barricade to evil and holds people inside its walls together!  It is doing by prayer what Nehemiah did physically.  Nehemiah and God’s people were in a broken-down state.  The city wall around Jerusalem was in shambles, allowing Israel’s enemies the ability to keep its citizens in a defeated state.

4. WHY BUILD A PRAYER WALL?

Video ~ ~ pastorkevinschuessler ~ 1 Comment

Today is day 4 of 5 answering your questions about joining us in building a prayer wall for America.

What difference could the Prayer Wall make?

The Prayer Wall protects us from easy access of the evil one into our lives and shuts down his plan to “kill, steal and destroy.” (John 10:10)  Through prayer we seek to ask God for what he has already promised and desires for us – that we may have “life and have it to the full.” (John 10:10)  This is what Jesus, our Good Shepherd promised to those who follow him.  Let’s ask for God’s fullness for our people and our country, through Jesus Christ.  Later in John 10, Jesus promised that “my sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.” (John 10:27 NLT) What if because of the Wall of Prayer offered up by God’s people, we see this kind of response to God’s goodness – people listening to Jesus and following Him in their daily lives?  Let’s believe and pray!

God listens and answers people’s prayers.

Nehemiah’s prayer was no small request.  He was planning to ask his king for help, which could have gotten him killed!  This is what he prayed to God before meeting with the king.  “The people you rescued by your great power and strong hand are your servants. O Lord, please hear my prayer! Listen to the prayers of those of us who delight in honoring you. Please grant me success today by making the king favorable to me. Put it into his heart to be kind to me.”  (Nehemiah 1:10-11 NLT) God SO answered Nehemiah’s prayer!  The king asked Nehemiah what his trouble was, and also what he could do!  The king could have executed Nehemiah. (It was illegal to have a “bad day” around the king!)  Instead, God answered Nehemiah’s prayer by causing the king to feel favorable towards Nehemiah and to be willing to help him. This same God who answered Nehemiah’s audacious prayer, answers ours!  So let’s pray. Let’s ask specifically, audaciously, boldly for our country, for our people.  Ask and pray as boldly as the Holy Spirit leads.  And watch what God does!
