Thanks to all who participated in the Day of Prayer and the Prayer Ministry Open House last weekend. It was a great weekend for both. One of the resources we provided for the Day of Prayer was a guide for prayer-walking Tallowood. It was such a beautiful day for it that many of you chose to participate in this way.
In the book Prayer-Walking written by Steve Hawthorne and Graham Kendrick, the activity is defined as “praying on-site with insight.” For example, as you prayer-walk Tallowood, you might pray for the activities that take place in the Gym as you walk by the gym. Then, as you walk by, you might notice some youth playing basketball, so you might pray for God to work in their lives. If you knew one of them, you might pray more specifically.
Prayer-walking may be done any time in any place. You can prayer-walk your neighborhood, workplace, home etc. You can even prayer-walk as you drive. Sometimes, God may lead you to stop and spend more time in a particular place. There may be a need there that you don’t know about, or God may be getting ready to do something and He will call you to pray for the preparation.
The Prayer Ministry Office has Tallowood Prayer-Walking Guides available. If you would like to participate in this type of intercession for Tallowood or if you would like to learn more about prayer-walking, please contact the Prayer Ministry Office.
