Our Prayer Practices
In the Lay Apostles of the Returning King Prayer Group, we embrace various prayer practices to enhance our connection with God:
Intercessory Prayer
We lift up the needs and intentions of our community, nation, and world through intercessory prayer. We believe in the power of collective prayer to bring about positive change and transformation in the lives of others.
Contemplative Prayer
Contemplative prayer allows us to enter into a place of stillness and silence, where we can listen to God's whispers and experience His presence. Through this practice, we seek to deepen our intimacy with God and cultivate a receptive heart.
Prayerful Reflection
Prayerful reflection involves engaging with sacred texts, such as scripture or spiritual books, and allowing the words to resonate within us. We seek to gain insights and revelations that inspire and guide us on our spiritual journey.
Praise and Worship
Praise and worship are integral parts of our prayer gatherings. We express gratitude to God, offer praise for His goodness, and surrender ourselves in worship. These acts of adoration help cultivate an attitude of humility and surrender in our prayer lives.
