Pray

At Imago Dei, we desire to be a people who are devoted to prayer, as we see modeled throughout Scripture (Acts 2:42; Rom. 12:12; Col. 4:2, Eph. 1:16-20, 3:14-19). As a people reliant on the power of the Lord, one way we express this living dependency is through prayer.

The aim of the Prayer Ministry is to cultivate an increased desire and ability for prayer in the lives of the members of IDC so that they would increasingly know and enjoy God. We will carry out this aim primarily through resourcing our members and offering opportunities for members to pray corporately for one another, our loved ones, our community, our country, and the world.

  • Jesus makes it clear through one of his parables on a persistent widow in Luke 18:1-8, that we “ought always to pray and not lose heart.” This seems to be in alignment with many other passages on prayer elsewhere in the Bible. We are to “pray at all times in the Spirit,” “making supplication for all the saints” (Eph. 6:18-20); to “be constant in prayer” (Rom. 12:12); to “not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be known to God” (Phil. 4:6); to “continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving” (Col. 4:2); to “seek the Lord and his strength, seek his presence continually” (1 Chron. 16:11); and to hold “fast to the Head, from whom the whole body, nourished and knit together through its joints and ligaments, grows with a growth that is from God” (Col. 2:19); such “that the word of the Lord may speed ahead and be honored” (2 Thess. 3:1).
