Rebecca Livermore's Articles in Prayer

  • Prayer for the Pray-ers
    As an intercessory prayer team, your group is naturally focused on the needs of others. Although there is great fulfillment in that, burnout is a high probability unless time for personal nurture takes place.
  • Proclaim a Fast
    I have a confession to make: I love to eat! Because of that, fasting, the voluntary abstinence from food, is a discipline I used to avoid. I’ve found I’m not alone in my aversion to fasting. In fact, it is perhaps the most neglected of all the disciplines.

    If you'd like to try prayer walking, keep these ideas in mind.
  • Pray Without Sleeping
    I can sense the broken, disappointed heart of Jesus when I read the words, "Could you men not keep watch with me one hour?" (Mt. 26:40). His disciples, the ones closest to Him, fell asleep when they should have been communing with the Father.

    This article gives suggestions for staying alert during prayer.
