SOAKING PRAYER

Christianity today is very much moved by the latest fad or personality. Recently Todd Bentley was all the rage but he is long forgotten. Now it seems there is a move to embrace what is known as, "Soaking Prayer".

Soaking’ is a term used to describe the practice of expectantly waiting and resting in God’s love, rather than striving in prayer. As a result of soaking in God’s presence, people’s lives have been transformed from restored marriages to healed bodies.

New Hope Church here in Abilene, TX is going to hold a Soaking conference:
Here is the information:


Catch the Fire Ministries has recently developed a Soaking in His Presence Weekend. This weekend includes most of the topics included in the Soaking Prayer Center Training School and you will receive a Soaking Prayer School Graduation Certificate upon completion of the weekend. Come by the church for a registration form & schedule that has more information and cost of this special conference.



This is of course more of the same old charismatic theology repackaged in a new way. Experience is the focus not learning from God's word. It is about hearing from God outside of the bible.


Here is a video clip from a recent segment that aired on the 700 club.





Here is a video explaining how they want to place a, "Soaking Prayer Center" in every city. wow, I must have missed that command in scripture! Go forth and establish soaking prayer centers! In fact I don;t think anyone in 2000 years of church history has seen it either!

Here is the video:




I plan to develop an in-depth biblical response to this movement. If you know of videos or articles that talk more about it please send me links to the informaiton. I need as much help as I can get tracking down good information about this movement.

Thanks
