Strategic Prayer

When B.U.D. started working in the urban core of Minneapolis, they discovered there were many spiritual strongholds existing in the area. Through prayer, they sensed that the Spirit of God would come only if these strongholds were broken.

A key to breaking spiritual strongholds is corporate intercession. Nightly prayer meetings and prayer walks have been established. This type of prayer gives birth to revelation and revelation gives birth to faith which gives birth to effective ministry

In addition, several pastors in the area have become partners in prayer. Weekly prayer meetings have been started. “Prayerperation” all-night prayer meetings have been conducted that have fostered a united prayer front. Pastor's Prayer Retreat is another means of coming together to seek God's favor.

God intended for the Body of Christ to work together in defeating the enemy and restoring the city. The power of God's Spirit is more evident than ever and a true spirit of unity is has become established. No one wants to stop now. God is doing something wonderful and He is positioning us to be a part of something even greater in the future. Walls are coming down as He is lifted up!
