Make prayer a priority in the life of your church by preaching about it, offering classes on it, and modeling it wherever possible. Stay current on what God is doing in other churches, across the nation, and around the world in the area of prayer. Read books on prayer and attend seminars and workshops. Build prayer into existing ministries such as Sunday school, small groups, charity functions, special events, and outreach efforts. Consider developing a special place for prayer that would be accessible 24 hours a day.
Prayer rooms promote consistent, informed intercession.
Give your prayer ministry variety. Try to make sure that all members of your congregation can find a place to fit in where they will feel comfortable. Keep in mind that different people will be motivated for different kinds of prayer. Plan prayer retreats for the leaders in the church. Allow time for the pastor and the staff time to go away regularly to pray.
