D. Walker, Beth Moore Bible Study

The gathering of the body to intercede for missionaries sent out from among them is exciting, very powerful, and encouraging. Beginning to embark in my own life as a career missionary with my husband, and having been a part of this meeting birthed in me a joy in knowing that when I am serving overseas there will be a commitment to intercede for my husband and myself. Having been surrounded by prayer warriors fighting for missionaries with the very Word of God delighted my soul and also opened the Heavens to answer awaited prayer needs. The Heavens truly opened for us in that meeting and what a blessed experience it brought me. A. Barbe, Missionary Prayer Ministry

I have had the privilege of facilitating Building a House of Prayer within my church. It has been my honor  to see how the Holy Spirit has used this study in the lives of our people.  For me the transformation time always seems to take place in them around Week 3 as they begin to pray God's Word.  I see this illumination come over the people right in the class once they fill in the blanks with someone's name and they are just freed at that point. We have truly begun to see with our eyes transformed lives because of this study!

B. Brantley, Building a House of Prayer

As I have learned to consecrate this past year, both personally and corporately in the church, God has used this to draw me closer to Him. That alone, causes me to rejoice!!!! I have learned and seen that being set apart for God puts His power in my prayers and life.

J. Herring, First Baptist Consecration Ministry

It is always such a blessing to pray on Tuesdays before Bible Study; but this Fall was especially amazing!  Since we were studying "Revelation," the prayer team - along our precious sisters that we study with - were all praying for Jesus to reveal Himself to us.  This is definitely a prayer that Jesus answers! My love for My Savior keeps growing as I still pray everyday for Him to continue revealing Himself to me.

E. Hernandez, Beth Moore Bible Study

What a blessing to have Pray the Word Ministries and Mary Ann Bridgwater at our recent annual prayer celebration banquet.  Mary Ann was thoroughly biblical and whole-heartedly enthusiastic as she challenged the members at Lazybrook Baptist Church to engage their lives in intercession and to pray in Jesus' name.

Pastor Neesley, Church Conference

The joy and power that comes from praying Gods Word is amazing.  There is an intimacy that I always reach when I use His very own Words from the Bible to pray requests that He desires for me to lift up to Him.  Using His very words in prayer is His desire.  He has always commanded us to meditate on His Word, to hide it in our hearts, with the purpose of using them as our prayers and petitions.  The Sent conference gave me an opportunity to pray His Word with others, which gathers together His children and in agreement He always shows up as promised.  I felt blessed to cover areas in prayer over our city, our church, our government, and internationally and truly learned a new responsibility to continue in prayer of  these areas in my own prayer life.

A. Barbe, Sent Conference

Thank you for allowing me to be a part of the prayer team. The honor and privilege was wholly mine. The most precious part to me was meeting with Him inside the sanctuary. To profess HIS Word of victory into every air molecule and over every seat was like standing on top the mountain with HIM before the great climb. It was the Anointing in the consecration during this time that set my heart and mind on fire like no other. The experience of the altar ministry birthed a new passion in me. I loved praying with/for the women. To be used in the Spirit of such a calling is like no other. Thank you again for allowing me to serve Him in this ministry.

J. Crawford, Beth Moore Bible Study

Thank you so much for hosting the powerful prayer meeting for our missionaries recently. It was probably the most meaningful prayer services I have been in for quite some time. As a parent of a missionary, I know how they depend on our prayers to see them through every day. Your outline of how we were to pray and the wonderful scriptures that enabled us to voice our prayers using The Word were extremely helpful. Inserting our missionary's name to make the prayer specific to them made the pray personal and direct. I am looking forward to future opportunities to attend meetings with Pray the Word Ministries.
