Draw Closer to God – Family Prayer

Family prayer time is vital to a successful summer as a family. Family prayer builds a sense of spiritual community in your home. It truly helps everyone in your family realize that you are one as a family and that you serve the same God.

I pray that the fellowship of your faith may become effective through the knowledge of every good thing which is in you for the sake of Christ.
─ Philemon 1:6 NASB

God created you and each one in your family as a physical, mental and spiritual person. When you pray regularly, you stimulate the spiritual part of your being that all too often rests dormant, unused, ignored or neglected.

Going to God together in prayer helps you share one another’s burdens and celebrate your victories.

Your family will enjoy more closeness in your relationships when you are intentional about your prayer life. Praying together connects you with each family member. Going to God together in prayer helps you share one another’s burdens and celebrate your victories.
