Is prayer really making a difference in your church? In this Words From The Word devotion, Pastor Roderick Webster opens Acts chapter 4 (KJV) to remind us that the early church was a praying church — and that prayer is still what makes all the difference today.

You might be asking: Why does it feel like our church gatherings are shrinking? Why do some sermons land and others seem to fall flat? Why should I wait on God when others around me could help? Can God really be trusted to take care of my family?

Pastor Webster speaks honestly from his own life and ministry to show us that prayer is not just a ritual — it is the place where we turn our eyes away from our problems and fix them on the only One who can truly solve them.

Key points from this devotion:

- A prayerful church expects God to hear and answer

- Psalm 62:5 calls us to wait on God alone for our expectation

- God is sovereign — He is Creator, Sustainer, and He knows the end before it begins

- Recognizing who God is changes how we pray
