Prayer is not just a spiritual discipline but a powerful weapon in the life of a believer. Pastor Lee Jenkins concludes the Triple Threat series by teaching how prayer, alongside giving and fasting, equips Christians to fight spiritual battles. Drawing from the story of King Jehoshaphat in 2 Chronicles 20, he emphasizes making prayer our first response and praising God in advance for the victory.
