PRMI Prayer House Capital Campaign Update – August 2021

//  by 

Over the last decade, PRMI participated in the rising of a global movement of intercessory prayer. 

During the last challenging year through the trials of Covid, in all corners of the globe where PRMI is connected, we have taken part in a giant wave of extraordinary pleading and passionate prayer within the body of Christ.   

Into this context, PRMI has sent out mailing to invite prayer and giving to complete the PRMI Prayer House so that it might take its role in hosting more work of intercessory prayer.

The Life of a Prayer Intercessor: Featuring Archer Torrey

//  by 

Intercessory prayer came to life for me (Brad Long) through Archer Torrey and the life of prayer I experienced and saw when I lived at Jesus Abbey in South Korea.

It was not so much Archer’s teaching on prayer that affected me.

Rather it was his life of prayer that impacted me. 

By joining him in prayer, and seeing the fruit of his prayer life, Archer provided a laboratory in which others of us could experience the necessity and reality of prayer.

PRMI Prayer House Update

//  by 

Earlier this year, construction on the PRMI Prayer House at the Community of the Cross came to a pause when we fully used what God has provided to date. 

There was enough provision to reach the milestone of “weathering in” the Prayer House. We wait on God to provide for the next milestones.

Jesus is Risen!

//  by 

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. 

These words reassure us.

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

We no longer need to fear death. 

Our sin is forgiven.

Relational Sovereignty: A View That Makes Room for Prayer

//  by 

In the middle of a discussion regarding God’s sovereignty and prayer, Frank asserted, “If you truly believe that God is sovereign, then you do not need to check your side mirror when changing lanes.”  

Frank’s assertion argued for a rigid application of the classic view of sovereignty.

Your Will Be Done, Matthew 6:10

//  by 

At first glance, praying “Your will be done,” Matthew 6:10, seems like a straightforward request for the Father to go to work to right what is wrong, repair what is broken, and straighten what is twisted. Phil Noordmans helps us understand what it means to pray according to God’s Word.

He works and we watch. However, I believe there is more to this prayer.

Functional Gifts for Building the Church

//  by 

In the letter to the Roman Christians, Paul challenges them to use their spiritual gifts (Romans 12:4-8), also known as functional gifts.

In this list, Paul specifically names seven spiritual gifts that the Lord has distributed to people. These gifts empower us for service in the body of Christ.

Christmas Greetings 2020

//  by 

One of my favorite Christmas traditions is attending the candlelight service at church. We always closed the service by singing the hymn Silent Night and lighting candles.

It was a somber and also joyful moment as the light was shared person to person, symbolizing the light that has come into the world through the birth of Christ.

What Are Spiritual Gifts?

//  by 

Every follower of Jesus Christ has at least one spiritual gift.   

These spiritual gifts are common ways the Holy Spirit has expressed His power and presence through born-again people.

Spiritual gifts are also tools that we, as human beings, need to work on God’s spiritual and supernatural building project— the Kingdom of God.   

All of the spiritual gifts are necessary for the building of the Church of Jesus Christ.

Through an interesting combination of miracles and Kingdom connections that have been made through PRMI’s mission outreach, God is providing top of the line masks to three of PRMI’s mission partners.

Elements of a Kairos Moment

//  by 

You can learn to recognize elements of a kairos moment as you cooperate with the Holy Spirit. This is a skill that any follower of Christ can acquire and develop.   

In the ministry of PRMI, we call those Kairos moments. These are moments when God wants to accomplish something in the world through us to advance His Kingdom.

Kairos moments are moments where we are invited by the Father to cooperate with the Holy Spirit.

PRMI Prayer House Update, October 2020

//  by 

We serve a faithful, absolutely reliable God. I trust that as you read this, the Holy Spirit brings to your remembrance the goodness of our Father as you discover what the Lord established at the PRMI Prayer House in 2020. 

We can see how God is moving, mobilizing, and His Kingdom is moving, even in the midst of one of the most unpredictable seasons of modern history, in the middle of one of the most polarized times in American history.

Keep in Step with the Spirit

//  by 

How might we obey the Bible’s instruction to “keep in step with the Spirit” as found in Galatians 5:25?  

When you became a disciple of Jesus Christ, you entered into the new reality of the Kingdom of God.
