Our God is a God of love, and out of that love flows the salvation, restoration and wholeness that he longs to bring to his creation. One aspect of the redemptive work of God is the healing of individuals from various forms of physical, emotional, spiritual and relational brokenness. The work of healing through prayer and the laying on of hands was an integral part of the ministry of Jesus as he came to declare and demonstrate to in breaking of the Kingdom of God. He equipped many of his followers to carry on this work, as an integral part of the faithful enactment of the gospel. It is a part of our calling as the Body of Christ to continue this Kingdom work.
“Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord.”
James 5:14
Incorporating prayer ministry time into worship services on a regular basis is one way in which we can be faithful in connecting the declaration of the Kingdom of God through teaching, worship, and evangelism, with the demonstration and extension of the Kingdom through prayer and healing. Together, these components are a part of our faithful enactment of the gospel in the midst of the kingdom of this world. This is the larger purpose for the development of this type of ministry. The more immediate purpose of the ministry is to intercede with people by invoking the presence and power of the Holy Spirit and ministering wholeness, deliverance, peace, healing, reconciliation, and the empowerment of individuals according to their needs
Our DGC Prayer Team prays for the spiritual upliftment and financial needs of the main branch believers, for pastors of the branch churches, and for the states and countries all around the world for world peace and healing
