Engage

When God first cre­ated man­kind His inten­tion was not to offer us sal­va­tion – it was to inter­act and have fel­low­ship with us.

Engage is for women who desire to seek God’s face and inter­cede for the body of Christ. Our aim is to inter­act with Him and con­nect with all women who desire to be part of see­ing His king­dom estab­lished through prayer.

We believe that through a deep­en­ing rela­tion­ship with Jesus Christ we can agree with God’s will and pray that His king­dom will come and His will be done.

We believe that prayer is a God given priv­ilege and respons­ib­il­ity that God ordained and which He delights in. God has prom­ised to respond to prayer. “and this is the con­fid­ence which we have before him, that if we ask any­thing accord­ing to His will, He hears us (1 John 5:14). Some­times we don’t know how to pray accord­ing to God’s will but desire it earn­estly. It is then that “the spirit of God inter­cedes for us accord­ing to the will of God” Romans 8:27).

This year we are stand­ing together as prayer war­ri­ors to pray for the things in this world which breaks God’s heart. We want to do battle for the people affected and caught up in the social injustices of our world. Hand in hand with this we also aim to pray dili­gently for those who do not yet believe.

Once a month on a Thursday even­ing at 7:30 we gather in the upper hall to join hands in prayer and wor­ship. Each month will have a def­in­ite prayer focus and we wel­come all women to par­ti­cip­ate in this call to pray.

John Piper com­men­ted on how our pray­ers are a gift from the one “who works in us that which is pleas­ing in his sight” (Hebrews 13:21). How grate­ful we should be that He has chosen us to be employed in His high service.

How eager we should be to spend much time in prayer! Please join us. If you need any fur­ther inform­a­tion, con­tact the church office.
