In this sermon, Evangelist Martha P. Davis emphasizes prayer as one of God’s greatest gifts to believers—a direct line of communication with the Almighty through the name of Jesus Christ. Drawing primarily from James 5, she teaches that prayer is both a privilege and a command, reminding listeners that God desires His children to come boldly before His throne with confidence that He hears and answers.

Evangelist Davis explains that effectual, fervent prayer carries power and produces results. She highlights that prayer is not merely asking for personal needs, but also interceding for others, seeking justice, healing, forgiveness, and spiritual strength. She points to examples such as Daniel’s unwavering prayer life and the biblical promise that “the prayer of faith shall save the sick” to show that persistent, faithful prayer moves the hand of God.

The sermon also stresses that prayer develops patience, submission, and spiritual sensitivity. Through prayer, believers are refined, drawn closer to God, and taught to hear His voice. Evangelist Davis encourages Christians to pray continually—in private, corporately, and in every circumstance—trusting God’s promises that even before they call, He will answer.

Ultimately, her message is a strong call for believers to embrace prayer as essential to their walk with God, recognizing it as the means by which they receive grace, strength, guidance, and victory.
