1. Talk about Hebrews 4:14-16 and allow people to share about their confidence in prayer. 2. How do we know what we need to repent of before we start praying? 3. Ask how many pray in their Heavenly Language and give them a chance to give testimony. Also, give people a chance to be prayed for to receive their Heavenly Language. 4. Spend time talking about praying the Word and allow people a chance to give a testimony about how they do that. Recorded messages are available in the foyer.
