Advance the Kingdom of God through Spirit Empowered Ministry

Join us for 10 Days of Prayer: Preparing for Pentecost

During the ten days between the Ascension Day of Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit coming at Pentecost, Luke tells us that the believers gathered to pray.

They all joined together constantly in prayer, along with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.

Acts 1:14 (NIV)

Since PRMI focuses on the person and work of the Holy Spirit and as a ministry we prioritize prayer, we want to use the ten days between Ascension Day and Pentecost to pray for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit.

For 2019, that is May 30 to June 9.

Save the Date: Empowered Families #2

Every generation is tasked with the enormous call to hand the Gospel to the next generation. 

PRMI takes this call very seriously and knows that it only happens through a deeper knowledge and practical understanding of the person and work of the Holy Spirit.

With that said, this summer we are excited to be hosting our second year of “Empowered: Christian Family Camp.” 

The dates for the camp are: July 10-13, 2019.

Save the Dates: Two Opportunities to Grow in Prayer

Many of us believe we should be praying more, but don’t feel effective, so we give up. 

Do any of these questions echo your dilemma? 

  • Am I an intercessor?
  • How can I pray more effectively for my family?   
  • I want to do more than simple “Bless us” prayers.
  • How can I go beyond praying my opinion to praying God’s will? 
  • I pray for ministries that I support – how do I pray about some ongoing obstacles they face? 
  • I see another national election on the horizon – how can I discern what is going on in the spiritual realm behind the scenes?   
  • I have heard people talk about “demonic strongholds.”  What are they and how are we to deal with them in prayer?

Jesus has risen!

“But the angel said to the women, ‘Do not be afraid; for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified. He is not here; for he has risen, as he said.'”  Matthew 28:5-6

These words echo down the centuries. 

They reassure us.

They declare that our Lord, Jesus Christ, is risen from the dead. 

We no longer need to fear death.  Our sin is forgiven. 

We can have a relationship with God through what Jesus has done for us.

Baptized with or filled with the Holy Spirit?

Forty days after Easter we celebrate Ascension Day, the day when Jesus returned in glory to His Father.

Just before leaving His disciples on that day, Jesus promised that He would send the Holy Spirit to empower them to be His witnesses (Acts 1:4,5,8). 

Ten days later on Pentecost, this promise was fulfilled.

The Holy Spirit was poured out and the disciples were baptized with the Spirit.

Do you need to pray to be “Baptized with the Holy Spirit”? 

Or do you need to pray to be “Filled with the Holy Spirit?”

Or are you just fine the way you are?

How can a church learn to cooperate with the Holy Spirit?

How can a church learn to cooperate with the Holy Spirit?

St Paul wrote that we should “keep in step with the Spirit” (Galatians 5:25).

For me this brings to mind images of ballroom or Latin dancing, where the woman’s dancing follows the lead given by her partner.

In a similar way the church needs to follow the lead that is given by the Holy Spirit.
