The Prayer Collective

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.”

— Philippians 4:6

is the "tip of the spear" for H4HG. It is compromised of intercessors from various churches, denominations, and backgrounds. Intercession serves a significant role in God healing the land, community, and the church.

WHAT DO WE PRAY FOR?

The mission of the Prayer Collective is:

- Intercession: to engage in fervent and effectual intercessory prayer

- Equipping: to equip believers for the work of the ministry of intercession.

- Declaration: to pray and declare the infallible Word of God

Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. - 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
