Congregational Prayer
O God, help us to overcome our unbelief. Let the Holy Spirit fill us with the faith and power that rescue the prisoners enchained by the enemy. Make us people who pray. Make us people who believe. Make us like Jesus. Amen.

Leader:
When they came back down the mountain to the other disciples, they saw a huge crowd around them, and the religion scholars cross-examining them. As soon as the people in the crowd saw Jesus, admiring excitement stirred them. They ran and greeted him. He asked, “What’s going on? What’s all the commotion?”

All:
A man out of the crowd answered, “Teacher, I brought my mute son, made speechless by a demon, to you. Whenever it seizes him, it throws him to the ground. He foams at the mouth, grinds his teeth, and goes stiff as a board. I told your disciples, hoping they could deliver him, but they couldn’t.”

Leader:
Jesus said, “What a generation! No sense of God! How many times do I have to go over these things? How much longer do I have to put up with this? Bring the boy here.” They brought him. When the demon saw Jesus, it threw the boy into a seizure, causing him to writhe on the ground and foam at the mouth.

All:
He asked the boy’s father, “How long has this been going on?”

Leader:
“Ever since he was a little boy. Many times it pitches him into fire or the river to do away with him. If you can do anything, do it. Have a heart and help us!”

All:
Jesus said, “If? There are no ‘ifs’ among believers. Anything can happen.”

Leader:
No sooner were the words out of his mouth than the father cried, “Then I believe. Help me with my doubts!”

All:
Seeing that the crowd was forming fast, Jesus gave the vile spirit its marching orders: “Dumb and deaf spirit, I command you—Out of him, and stay out!” Screaming, and with much thrashing about, it left. The boy was pale as a corpse, so people started saying, “He’s dead.” But Jesus, taking his hand, raised him. The boy stood up.

Leader:
After arriving back home, his disciples cornered Jesus and asked, “Why couldn’t we throw the demon out?”

All:
He answered, “There is no way to get rid of this kind of demon except by prayer.”

Lord, I will lift mine eyes to the hills
Knowing my help is coming from You
Your peace, You give me in time of the storm
You are the source of my strength
You are the strength of my life
I lift my hands in total praise to you
You are the source of my strength
You are the strength of my life
I lift my hands in total praise to you
Amen
