The Value of PrayerWalking:
1. Prayerwalking is "Praying onsite with insight." It launches us beyond church walls and into our neighborhoods where we can "watch and pray" and become aware of what's going on, be it good or evil.

•  PrayerWalking does not make our prayers more powerful. An intercessor can pray just as effectively for China here as in China. Distance is not a barrier to Spiritual Authority. See Matthew 8:5-13

•  PrayerWalking moves us into a type of prayer where God can guide our eyes, and touch our heart with what moves His heart. It helps us focus around His priorities.


2. It begins to lift the veil over people’s eyes and prepares them for further contact with the Good News of Jesus.

3. It holds back the forces of darkness as we do hands-on spiritual warfare at key points in our localities.

4. It eventually blankets the whole city, home by home, school by school, business by business, and building by building in prayer.

5. It enables us to take spiritual ownership of our neighborhoods as we pray and believe that every place the sole of our foot treads will be given unto us by the Lord.

6. It produces an excitement among the people of God as they see the effect of their praying in a declining crime rate, a reduction in violence, thriving churches, favor with government authorities and the lost finding Jesus.
