How to pray
One of the most asked questions about prayer is, ‘How should I pray?’. Jesus’s disciples famously asked Him that question, and He gave them the framework of the Lord’s Prayer, as an example, of what to do.

The Key to Praying Prayers God Wants to Answer
In this teaching Ed Silvoso explains some key principles about how to improve our prayer lives. We all want to see our prayers answers, and often we wonder why this doesn’t always happen. Ed looks at how we pray and offers us some suggestions about how we can start to pray the prayers that God wants to answer, and thus see more answers to our prayers.
There are several areas of focus for our prayer based meetings some of these are
- for prayer and healing,
- some are for prayer and deliverance, and
- some are for prayer and intercession.
We are happy to receive prayer requests from you, where we will pray on your behalf, either with you in person, or remotely at different times. Our desire is to stand with you, and to stand in the gap during difficult times or seasons, so that there is opportunity for you to come to know the love of God and His support around your life.

This meeting is open to anyone to attend, from near or far, and many do travel quite a distance to come.
The session usually starts with some informal teaching about healing taken from the bible, and then there is opportunity for people to receive individual prayer.
Our healing and deliverance/intercession prayer meetings are usually held on ……[TBC]….. see our Events section for more details
These tend to be active prayer sessions which start with some teaching from the bible and then a period of praying and interceding for different things as God leads us. It could be praying for the locality, the nation, topical issues, individuals or groups.
There are often times of personal prayer and deliverance also.
In our Sunday and mid-week gatherings we have times for personal prayer, sometimes these are at the end of the main worship time where there is opportunity for prayer for healing, encouragement, deliverance or any need that you may want God to help you with. Sometimes they will be spontaneously announced and acted upon.
We take our lead on prayer ministry from reading and studying the bible and applying biblical principles and spiritual truths into our situations. 2 Timothy 3:16 tells us that
“all Scripture is God-breathed (given by His inspiration) and profitable for instruction, for reproof and conviction of sin, for correction of error and discipline in obedience, [and] for training in righteousness (in holy living, in conformity to God’s will in thought, purpose, and action),”
