Welcome to the Prayer page at Idlewild. Here you will find resources such as who and what to pray for specifically, including requests from the leaders of the church, upcoming events, Watchman on the Wall signup, and more.
Our goal is to initiate fresh, heart-stirring prayer content and scriptural, Christ-focused encouragement to motivate Spirt led prayer in the church.
Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed.
(Mark 1:35, 2005 NIV)
I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing…. If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.
(John 15:5,7 NASB)
Join Pastor Greg Murphy for a time of heart preparation, worship-based prayer, and intercession each Wednesday evening 5:30-6:15 in the Prayer Room beside the Fireside Room. Prayer can lead us to powerfully encounter God in relationship, worship and ministry. Let’s Seek God’s face together!

One of my close relatives has Corona Virus. Her name is Christina and she is in her late 20's. She is hospitalized in Ft. Lauderdale.. Please pray for her.
Also, I am in Orlando because my mother, Charlotte, had surgery last week. She is doing better.
I would appreciate prayers for her.
Please pray for my 80-yr old mother, Anne. She lives in a retirement community in NH, and they already have at least 6 confirmed cases of COVID-19 there. Pray for her health and safety, for that of the other residents, and for the staff who are doing so much to contain this. Two of the people contracted the virus when they left the "campus" to run errands or eat out (back when you could). Please stay home if you are vulnerable.
I am writing to request prayers for healing for Robert Word. And for peace and strength and Gods Love and Protection for him and and his family. Especially his daughter and grandson who are caring for him.
My three youngest siblings, aged 5, 3, and 6 months, and my step father, are all ill with varyingly dangerous cases of pneumonia. Please pray that they recover without complications, and that others suffering from similar afflictions will also be healed.
My daughter has seizures and was put on an anti seizure medication recently and forbidden to drive. Additionally, they found a nodule on her lung and further studies are being done to find out if she has cancer or if this is just an anomaly.
She is 26 years old, she is a nonbeliever (She leans towards Conservative Judaism), and I'm afraid that she is going to die without Jesus.
Please pray for her healing, salvation, and for her to move back to Florida.
Thank you.
Please be praying for our son David who is working in Acute Care at TGH. Specifically that he remains healthy, has the opportunity to be an encouragement to those who are sick, and that he takes nothing home to his family.
I am lifting a friend grant foster in prayer one more time. I pray he is healed and finds someone to share his life with.
I miss his friendship so very much. But he has moved on I don't know if I did something or he just changed his mind. He acted as my friend and I trusted that
I pray he is surrounded by family and friends
My husband is fighting for his life in the hospital. Please pray with me for a miraculous healing, complete restoration, wisdom for his doctors and a renewed will to live
For our Sanitation workers. Gave them some cool waters last Friday and they said “it’s awful out here”. We depend on them to reliably pick up our trash while we “stay at home”. But many are creating more trash for them by cleaning out garages and landscaping. Join me in doing everything we can to minister to these vital neighbors of ours,
Please pray for my 14 yr old daughter who lives with half a heart. Please pray for protection with COVID 19 so she doesn’t get the virus. She is at high risk for complications because of her complex health.
