Praying churches are always the catalyst for revival.
Unfortunately, too many churches treat prayer as a secondary activity in ministry - a mere transition, if time permits.
We must become praying churches!
"Prayer cannot be retired as a secondary force in this world. To do so is to retire God from the movement. It is to make God secondary. To give prayer the secondary place is to make God secondary in life's affairs. To substitute other forces for prayer, retires God and materializes the whole movement. Satan has effectively disarmed us when he can keep us too busy doing things to stop and pray."
- E.M. Bounds, The Weapon of Prayer
