The Power and Benefits of Prayer Partner

How often do you pray with someone else? Or, do you tend to keep your prayers to yourself or maybe just submit a prayer request every now and then?

In this post, we’re looking at 5 benefits of praying with a prayer partner. Keep reading to learn why you’ll want to seek out a prayer partner in your life!
Praying with others amplifies your prayers

We need to pray for and with others, not just on our own. Prayer isn’t meant to be solitary and self-focused. Jesus wants us to pray together.

“Again, truly I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything they ask for, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.” (Matthew 18:19-20, NIV)

In the HOPE Church, we believe strongly in prayer; and we believe in the power of praying in agreement.

Please take the most advantage of or prayer partners network, and see how you can tap all the resources and strength of prayer with other members of the church.

Praying with someone else can be instrumental for your prayers.Praying with a prayer partner can be informal, such as prayer partners during a church service or a friend in your small group or Bible study.Or, it can be a more formal prayer partner relationship – a person or small group with whom you commit to regular meetings and prayer.

5 Benefits of Prayer Partnership

#1: Someone to pray for you

Sometimes we need someone else to pray on our behalf. We may not have the words to pray and need someone else to stand in the gap and pray for us.

Hearing our needs prayed by someone else can help to refocus our own prayers.

Jesus taught that prayer is more powerful when prayed by more than just ourselves.


#2: Keeps your prayers from being too self-focused

Praying for someone else keeps your prayers from becoming too self-focused.

You spend time focused on the needs of someone else, pouring out your heart to God on their behalf. It’ll help bring your own prayers into better perspective, too.


#3: Someone to help you with discernment

Discernment is listening to God through prayer to get an answer to a question, guidance on a decision, or clarity on God’s call for your life.

Discernment needs confirmation through others. It cannot be done in isolation.

So, praying with a prayer partner or a small group can help you with discernment.


#4: Creates a deep connection with someone else

Forming an ongoing prayer partner relationship will create a deep connection between you.

You’ll have someone to open up and share deeply with, someone to celebrate and share blessings with, someone to care for and pray over.


#5: Provides accountability for prayer

Committing to pray with a prayer partner will provide accountability for your prayer life. You’re committing to pray for someone else and meeting with them regularly to pray.

The prayer partner relationship will provide that added accountability to not skip your prayer time, but instead make it a priority.
