Program Details

Inner healing prayer ministry focuses on the inner person — the heart, mind, memories, and emotions — rather than only external behaviors or circumstances. Through prayer, Scripture, and attentive listening to the Holy Spirit, individuals are gently guided to encounter Jesus within areas of pain, trauma, sin, or broken relationships.

The goal is not merely emotional relief, but transformation — allowing God’s truth, love, and presence to replace lies, shame, fear, and unresolved wounds. Healing is understood as something God initiates and accomplishes, while trained prayer ministers serve as compassionate companions who create a safe, prayerful space for the work of the Holy Spirit.

  • God is the healer - prayer ministers facilitate, not direct, the healing
  • Biblically based - rooted in repentance, forgiveness, and God’s truth
  • Relational - focusing on encountering Jesus rather than reliving the trauma
  • Transformational - leading to lasting spiritual growth and freedom
  • Complementary - not a replacement for counseling or medical care

Sessions are typically held at The Lazarus Center in Bellevue, but we’re also open to meeting you where you’re comfortable. Everyone who leads individual prayer meetings is part of our community and has received inner healing prayer training from TLC or another organization.

Testimonials

Transformational Prayer is a very important factor in my life. Without it, I am not sure I would be here today... I have encountered the living Jesus speak healing to my deepest brokenness, and seen others encounter His presence and healing as well.

Jim Kneff

This process is not just for the big hurts... it's for our everyday lives. When we overreact to a situation or have negative emotions, we need to incorporate a sensitivity to go to our Father and ask if there is something broken that needs to heal.
