How Can We Take Our Prayers for Others to the Next Level?

Are you praying for others and feeling like you’re just saying words? Do your prayers feel trite or without impact? Perhaps you’ve been praying the same thing in the same way for a long time and you’re wondering if trying something else might be more effective.

God’s Word also tells us: “whatever you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive” (Matthew 21:22 NASB).
