A “Prayer-Grown" Life

A “Prayer-Grown” Life is one rooted deeply in prayer. We are a community of international believers, offering spiritual guidance to anyone called to prayer ministry or simply desiring to dive deeper in their faith and relationship with Christ Jesus. We believe ALL followers of Jesus are called to a life nourished in prayer, but we also believe God calls some specifically to a ministry of prayer and intercession; a beautiful mosaic of many different Spiritual Gifts combined into one ministry. 

The 'PrayerGrown.Life' website is a living resource, which is updated frequently with new content from various friends. We offer prayer journals, prayer guides, devotional material and other resources related to prayer for your daily life. Are you being called to live a prayer-grown life today? If so, you're in the right place!

A 'Prayer-Grown' Life was conceived by and flows through the heart of our Savior. Jesus nourished His own life in prayer as He lived out His days on the earth. In John 17, Jesus prays one of the most beautifully written prayers. Part of that prayer says: "This is eternal life, that they should know you, the only true God, and Him whom you sent, Jesus Christ." In other words, Jesus defines eternal life this way: "eternal life is knowing God." Jesus concludes His prayer by saying: "I made known to them your name, and will make it known; that the love with which you loved me may be in them, and I in them." Such intimacy is heard in these prophetic words. When we experience eternal life, that is “knowing God”, through Jesus Christ, we will experience a prayer-grown life in Him.

Jesus, Our Example

Jesus demonstrated spiritual living through daily life-growing prayer with the Father. Prayer is the intimate exchange of human thoughts, knowledge and wisdom for the divine thoughts, knowledge and wisdom of God; the Holy Spirit reveals the heart of the Father and teaches us what to pray (Romans 8:26). When we allow the Holy Spirit to pray through us, we are speaking the very words of God back to the Father. Through this continuous circulatory exchange of thoughts with the Father through the Holy Spirit, God imparts faith to us as we lean into Jesus. In other words, God literally transforms our human thoughts into His own thoughts and exchanges our human words for His own words. As our spiritual life is nourished through life-growing prayer, the Holy Spirit slowly cultivates our hearts and minds into the likeness of the Father. It is by this prayer-grown life that we are then empowered to impart faith to other people around us through our testimony. Are you prayer-grown?
