When the church fails to pray, the enemy tends to prevail, and souls are lost. Pray with Unity at the Lord s Supper Prayer at the Lord s Supper also builds unity in the church, which impacts the spread of the gospel. As prayer at the Lord s Supper increases, anger and arguments decrease, drawing the members of God s family closer to each other and closer to Him. Peace within the church, in turn, has a profound impact on evangelism. When the church is fighting and divided, unbelievers are turned off to the message of the church.
Church unity attracts unsaved people to the gospel.
Therefore, the Lord s Supper is a powerful motivation for believers to stay unified, which in turn impacts evangelism. The church in Acts 2 modeled what Paul taught in 1 Timothy 2. The church began with a dynamic and dramatic demonstration that the Lord s Supper is a biblical foundation for evangelism. The gospel is the most vital truth that God has given the church to proclaim. The Lord s Supper, with its focus on prayer and unity, provides a powerful biblical foundation for doing just that.
