IV. Closing Worship:
A. Songs
B. Spontaneous prayers of praise and thanksgiving for the
success of the prayer meeting and other gifts the Lord
has given them.
C. Petitions for the needs of the brothers and sisters
especially those that were just discussed during the
sharing of problems.
Usually the prayer meeting ends with everyone exchanging
greetings while a song of fellowship is sung.
REMINDERS:
1. The prayer meeting should not be more than two hours.
2. The leader should control the length and number of
testimonies. Two minutes is more than enough to make
agood testimony. When the testimony goes beyond the
time limit, the leader should call the attention of
the speaker.
3. Although the reading from the Word of God canbe taken
from any part of the Bible, we suggest, however, that
the reading be taken from Mark 16: 17-18. The purpose
is to prepare their minds for the praying over of the sick
that will be done after the prayer meeting.
4. The prayer meeting should always end with a joyful tone
by singing lively and joyful songs.
