The power of prayer should not be underestimated. James 5:16-18 declares that, "The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective. Elijah was a man just like you and me. He prayed with total earnest that it would not rain, and it did not rain for three and a half years. He also prayed, and the heavens rained, the earth produced its crops." God definitely listens to prayers, answers, and moves in response to the prayers.
Jesus said, "I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you" (Matthew 17:20). 2 Corinthians 10:4-5 says, "The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretense that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ." The Bible encourages us that we pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints (Ephesians 6:18).
