When you pray…

When you pray… Don't beg.Don't bargain.Don't blame. Ask to be blessed. Subnit to God as you seek the path for this prayer. Know that when you "knock" you are trusting in hope God will bless you regardless of the mess that prompted your prayer. Ask to be blessed in a way that the ultimate result is being more like Christ because you are walking and working with Christ, regardless f the "thing" you are petitioning God for. #ReCenterCHRIST into every prayer.   Phil Miglioratti

MINISTRY HUB: Strategic Prayer — From Prayer Activities to Prayer-Shaped Ministry  

Strategic Prayer — #ReimaginePRAYER From Prayer Activities to Prayer-Shaped Ministry   Are you wondering how prayer can become more than an opening ritual, emergency response, or a ministry team for prayerchampions? Prayer is often the first thing we say we believe in and the last thing we actually redesign around. We open meetings with prayer. We pray when there is a crisis. We ask people to pray for needs, decisions, illnesses, missionaries, ministries, and events. All of that matters. But…

What If Prayer Is Also a Spiritual Gift?

  One of the most clarifying insights in my journey as a person of prayer was realizing: this is a gift! Not everybody shares this gift! In C. Peter Wagner’s Prayer Shields, he talked about how all of the gifts are in the minority. More of our bodies are not eyes than are eyes. More of our bodies are not hands than are hands. And so whatever the exact number of spiritual gifts may be, each one is probably only around 5-10% of the body. And of those, not everybody exercises the gifts they…

#ReimaginePRAYER…with these two words

...two words that extend your prayers beyond fix-me, help-me, give-me to God's purpose in every answered prayer.   Do you see them?   "Epaphras, who is one of you and a servant of Christ Jesus, sends greetings. He is always wrestling in prayer for you, so that you may stand firm in all the will of God, mature and fully assured. I vouch for him that he is working hard for you and for those at Laodicea and Hierapolis.” ‭‭Colossians‬ ‭4‬:‭12‬-‭13‬ ‭‬‬   >>>Click for the Clip

An Ancient, Apt, Pithy, and Profound Penitential Prayer

An Ancient, Apt, Pithy, and Profound Penitential Prayer       One of the shortest prayers in the Bible is the one uttered by the penitent publican in the parable of the Pharisee and the Publican, which is recorded in Luke 18:9–14: And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner. —Luke 18:13 (AV/KJV)      This short prayer is a part of the origin of one of the most famous Christian prayers…

Praying With Jesus For An Unknown Missionary

Praying With Jesus For An Unknown Missionary   Phil Miglioratti    Decades ago, I was struck by a very simple, brief, public service announcement that I heard on the radio while driving. That announcement from decades ago continues to play in my mind. It has forever changed the way I relate to a specific set of people.     “How should I treat a disabled person?” was the question asked in the promo.    “Like a person” was the eye-opening answer.   That simple truth reminds me to take time to…

A Powerful 1-Word Prayer

“In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself prays for us through wordless groans …” —Romans 8:26 (NIV)   >Don’t underestimate the power of a groan to lift up a prayer.    Daily Herald   I answered the phone to hear a friend’s frantic request: “Please pray for me. I’m stuck in the middle of an intersection and my car won’t start!” Quickly searching for words, my initial response was a heartfelt groan. “Ugh,” I replied.…
