What makes a prayer effective when we are praying for another believer? As I study this question in the word of God one thing jumps out; one particular characteristic than should be present whenever we pray for another believer. If you will do this one thing, your prayers for others will be both scriptural and effective. Without this characteristic your prayers for others will be on the opposite end of the spectrum and be both unscriptural and ineffective. What is this quality? Well, I don’t just want to tell you, I want to show it to you in the scriptures. I wanted to spend a little more time looking at praying for other people and have been studying the prayers of Paul and Jesus for other people in the Bible. It took a little while to find the common trait but as we go through the word you will see it.
