Prayer Ministry Training

Prayer Ministry Training

Friday February 28 | 7:30pm-9:30pm
Saturday March 1 | 9am-4:30pm
Sunday March 2 | 11am-4pm

People’s lives can be messy and overwhelming, and there are times that we need external help to bring our lives back into right order with God. We believe that God can make a difference in every person’s life as they open their hearts and give Him access to their souls to encounter Him and allow Him to meet them where they are at. Churches need to be a safe community where people can come with their brokenness, hurts, and burdens to receive care and ministry through a confidential, caring, equipped, and effective prayer ministry. Prayer Ministry is an important ministry for the local church to provide. Where else do you see people empowered, released and sent out to intercede, support, pray for, give words of knowledge, prophecy and pray for healing? This is frontline ministry. Prayer ministers, when equipped and released to do Spirit-led and empowered ministry, can be an effective and vital part of the ministry team of a church, both on the weekends and throughout the week.

Sessions Include:

• Session 5 - Deliverance Ministry

Foundations and Prayer Ministry
For those interested in growing in prayer ministry skills this session focuses on equipping the prayer minister for effective ministry in praying with and for others. We will be exploring: What is a prayer ministry? Why does prayer ministry matter to the local church? 

Practicing Prayer Ministry
In this session we will be offering tools and tips for how to be an effective prayer minister in the local church. We will have some time for workshopping.

Soul Care and Prayer Ministry
We all have souls, but do we know how to care for them. The biblical rhythms of confession, repentance and forgiveness are foundational for our spiritual health. Prayer ministers need to learn to offer these spiritual pathways to others, but they first need to practice them for themselves.

Hearing God for Others
Often we have ideas of what would be good to pray in response to a person’s presenting concerns, but this session will guide the minister in how to listen and discern how the Holy Spirit may be wanting to speak into the person’s life and difficulties.

Deliverance Ministry Team Training  
Sometimes in the midst of prayer ministry there may arise situations that require more than prayers of encouragement or inner healing. This training equips the prayer minister to discern the need for deliverance ministry, and how to minister with love and spiritual authority in deliverance.
