What does Freedom Prayer do?
Freedom Prayer is a personal prayer ministry that exists to help with the process of recognizing and resolving anything that would keep us from an abiding relationship with God. It is a “first responder” ministry, focused on equipping individuals to prayerfully examine with God fundamental emotional and spiritual needs that hinder their Christian walk. Wounding, sin, ungodly beliefs, and entanglements can create strongholds that cause continual struggle with God and others. Freedom Prayer exists to provide solid biblical reconciliation and restoration that promotes a healthy prayer life and disciples individuals into a whole and abiding relationship with God. Traditionally, these prayer times occur in small groups of three people within a church team framework.
How does Freedom Prayer work?
Freedom Prayer is built on a strong and compelling scriptural basis for what we do and how we do it. Literally, a hundred scriptures direct individuals and church leaders on how to care for or disciple those with whom they are related or who are within their flock.
The Freedom Prayer model is structured around six pillars: 10 Foundations, WESUD, FRUIT LOOP, Spiritual Warfare, Doing Kingdom Business, and Connection
The Ten Foundations give an understanding of how we pray and a core belief system for ministry.
WESUD (Wounding, Entanglements, Sin, Ungodly Beliefs, and the Demonic) is a lens found in Luke 15 that offers the primary motivation and solution in each area.
The FRUIT LOOP (Fruit, Root, Boot, Loot, and Scoot) is a way to identify Satan’s work and remove it.
Spiritual Warfare is recognizing that the battleground is in the mind and utilizes practical tools that both acquire and keep the freedom that Jesus secured.
Doing Kingdom Business is the biblical “action” in a prayer time, seen in Forgiveness, Confession, Repentance, Renouncing, Breaking Agreement, and Casting Away.
Lastly, Connection tools are given to assist in drawing people closer to God, dependent on Scripture and the process of abiding.
The mission of Freedom Prayer has three phases.
