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!

I am Kővári Zalán from Hungary.
I converted at the age of 15 (33 years) and began living as a Christian.
My brother and sister are competing with me, they don’t want to let me go.
Ever since our father died (since 8 years), they have want to rule over me.
The way to do this is through occult forces and demonic torment.
Unfortunately, they found a strange congregation where they are supported.
For example One of the pastors of this congregation has now been arrested for tax fraud and has been imprisoned.
Thank you your pray.
Prayer for a young man (John) whose momentary lapse in judgement has caused him to be entering the prison system today for 6 years. Please pray for protection and God to go before and behind him and to surround him. and that he will draw near to God and trust in HIm.
Furloughed for 6 months, recalled for 4 into an unsafe, public facing position where social distancing is impossible. Guests & employees are openly disrespectful of the rules. 4,000 more of us being laid off soon. Although thankful to have a job for a short time, the stress, anxiety, & decreased income can not afford me a safe place to live in this area, nor do I really want to be here or at this company. I am sure that HE is working though.
I am very thankful for your prayers and am still praying for God to open doors and lead me to where I am to go, an affordable place to live, a job to support myself, & a Bible believing church with caring, praying members who actually get involved. This morning while watching your service online twice, I really believe I have found my church home; however, you are a few hours away, and I know nothing of the area, & have no contacts, job or home there. Please pray that God will provide if this is His plan for me.

“So Peter was kept in prison, but the church was earnestly [fervently] praying to God for him….Suddenly an angel of the Lord appeared and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side and woke him up. ‘Quick, get up!’ he said, and the chains fell......
“Prayer obtains fresh and continued outpourings of the Spirit. He alone begins the work of grace in a man’s heart. He alone can carry it forward and make it prosper. But the good Spirit loves to be entreated. And those who ask most will have most of his influence......
