Foursquare church in the Philippines grows very rapidly

Which comes first: strategy or prayer?

Below is an excerpt from an article written by Jim Montgomery that I found in the internet (www.churchplantingvillage.net/.../Jim%20Montgomery%20Luke%2010%202b%20Strategy.doc)

"But now I was documenting and analyzing the very rapid growth of the Foursquare Church in the Philippines. While their leaders had never studied church growth strategy, they were growing 36 times faster per foreign missionary than any comparable group!

What they did have was prayer for the sick, prayer for infilling of the Holy Spirit, prayer for provision of local resources, prayer for conversions and rapid growth, and lots more prayer besides."
