Prayer is Necessry for Effective Participation

Ephesians 6:18
Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints.

Paul urges Christians to make prayers and petitions for all the saints. Believers in Jesus Christ are saints!

Joseph Dicks in his article about ways to become an effective role prayer in church quotes John Bunyan, "You can do more than pray after you have prayed, but you cannot do more than pray until you have prayed".

Our words, our thoughts and works will all be in vain if we don't first seek the Lord for wisdom.

Do critical spirits, or excessive complaints build up a church/school? Not at all! Let us reprogram ourselves to pray instead of criticize.
Our object of our critique will change. Excessive grumbling and objection only leads to quarrels and factions.
