PRAYER ACADEMY UNIVERSITY

Prayer Academy – Educating, Empowering, and Equipping to make full proof of their Ministry.

“Anything that is not birthed through prayer is illegal.” ~Dr. Sarah Morgan

Prayer Academy derives from Ephesians 4:11-16, serving as an equipping ministry to mature the Saints for work of the ministry in the area of prayer. Prayer is taught, and prayer is caught, hence our mission: “Raising PrayingElite Warriors.”

“And it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, one of His disciples said unto Him, LORD TEACH us TO PRAY, as John also taught his disciple…And He said unto them, When you pray say…” Luke 11:1

Prayer Academy University–Experiential, Biblical, and Revelatory based Learning to Transform Ministry Leaders from Doctrine to Demonstration.

· Experiential – Birthed from real life issues and taught from real life experiences.

· Biblical – You see your life’s experiences in the light of Scripture.

· Revelatory – God speaks to you in every learning experience.

Prayer Academy University espouses the non-traditional educational approach and philosophy. The Mandate entails recruiting, training, activating, and deploying the prophetic and fivefold ministerial gifts into local, national, and global regions of the world to bring forth the glory of God for the dynamic transformation of men and women to demonstrate the power of God according to Matthew 28:18-20:

“18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.”
