What Happens In The Prayer Room:
There are two main types of worship sets: Devotional Sets and Harp & Bowl Sets. Here’s a quick overview of each:
​
Devotional Sets:
These are more low-key, focusing on ministering to the Lord. They may feature instrumental music or a small group leading worship, often with a single person on guitar or keys. Leaders may sing familiar songs, spontaneous tunes, or Scripture.
​
Harp & Bowl Sets (Main Sets):
Also known as Worship (harp) and Prayerful Intercession (Bowl) sets, these combine singing, prayer, and spontaneous worship that responds to the prayers offered. This model is showcased during our weekly Main Set on Thursday & Friday nights from 6:30-8:30 PM, led by designated prayer leaders.
​
While many engage with the worship and prayer in the room, there are other ways to connect with the Lord in the prayer room.

Ways to Engage with the Lord
​
Watch/Behold:
-
Set aside distractions—focus on the Lord.
-
Pray for “the spirit of wisdom and revelation” (Eph 1:16-20).
-
Invite the Spirit to transform you as you behold Him (2 Cor 3:18).
-
Picture God as described in Scripture (Exo 34:5-7; Isa 6; Rev 1:9-20).
-
Listen to Him as you focus (Ps 27:4, 62:1-2; Isa 30:15).
​
Open Your Heart:
-
Surrender your plans and expectations to the Lord.
-
Take your time—give Him space to speak (Rev 3:20; Ps 139:23-24).
​
Use the Bible:
-
Converse with the Lord through Scripture.
-
Reflect on small passages and respond in obedience (Psalms 1).
-
Read larger sections to grasp the overarching narrative.
-
Study a book of the Bible, exploring its background and themes.
-
Investigate specific themes like the Father’s heart or fellowship with the Spirit.
​
Request/Intercede:
-
Ask the Lord to guide your prayers (Matt 6:5-15; Rom 8:26).
-
Pray about specific burdens until you find release (Rom 8:26-28).
-
Be attentive to highlighted verses, signs, and impressions that guide your prayers.
​
David said, “One thing I have asked of the Lord: to dwell in His house and gaze upon His beauty” (Ps 27:4).
​
Remember, it’s not about how well you seek the Lord, but that you seek Him!
Prayer Room "Etiquette"
Go After the Lord:
The Lord rewards those who seek Him (Hebrews 11:6)! In worship and prayer, give Him your all. Feel free to express your worship—whether through stillness, kneeling, raising hands, or dancing. He is worthy of it all!
​
Be Considerate of Others:
-
Keep conversations in the lobby to avoid disturbing those focused on seeking the Lord.
-
Reserve instruments for designated worship leaders to minimize distractions for both worshipers and leaders.
​
When the Spirit Moves:
-
If you receive an encouragement for someone, ask if you can share it privately, either quietly in the back or in the lobby.
-
For messages meant for the group, approach the Prayer Leader to share in humility. They’ll decide the best way to communicate it.
​
Remember, the Spirit’s movements are for building up the body, not individuals (1 Cor 12 & 14). Let all actions be done in love, and practice self-control in your expressions.
