What If My People Prayed

At our Children's Ministries Meeting yesterday, we talked about prayer & the importance of it. We as christians & the church can do all the "things"(programs and such) but if we do not pray, it'll do us no good.

I was wanting to share something with you on here and wasn't sure what & then I heard this song this morning. It is a song by Casting Crowns.

What if the armies of the Lord

Picked up and dusted off their swords
Vowed to set the captive free
And not let satan have one more
What if the Church, for heaven's sake
Finally stepped up to the plate
Took a stand upon God's promise
And stormed hell's rusty gates

What if His people prayed
And those who bear His name
Would humbly seek His faith,
And turn from their old ways
And what would happen if we prayed
For those raised up to lead the way
Then maybe kids in school could pray
And unborn children see light of day
What if the life that we pursue
Came from a hunger for the truth
What if the family turned to Jesus
Stopped asking Oprah what to do

What if His people prayed
And those who bear His name
Would humbly seek His face
And turn from their own way

He said that He would hear
His promise has been made
He'll answer loud and clear,
If only we would pray

If My people call by My name
If they'll humble themselves and pray
If My people call by My name
If they'll humble themselves and pray
What if His people prayed
And those who bear His name
Would humbly seek His face, yeah
And turn from their old ways
He said that He would hear
His promise has been made
He'll answer loud and clear yeah
If only we would pray
