Prayer is a way for Christians to communicate with God and develop a personal relationship with him.
Some of the normal practices are regular prayer for the Baptism of the Holy Spirit with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues. Emphasis is placed on the fruit and gifts of the Spirit in the life of the believer. Prayers are made for healing and deliverance of the afflicted as part of the initial exercises for salvation.
We offer prayers for all things including divine healing, marriage restorations, reconciliation, sickness, broken heartedness, and loneliness.
Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him. Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.
(James 5:14-16)
Baptisim is a public showing of one’s acceptance of Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior
(Acts 2:38; Col. 2:12).
We offer two types of baptism, water and holy spirit.
Water Baptism — Baptism in water is by immersion, is a direct commandment of our Lord, and is for believers only. The ordinance is a symbol of the Christianʼs identification with Christ in His death, burial, and resurrection (Matt. 28:19; Rom. 6:4; Col. 2:12; Acts 8:36-39).
The following recommendation regarding the water baptismal formula is adopted; to wit: “On the confession of your faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, and by His authority, I baptize you in the Name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Ghost. Amen.”
Baptism in the Holy Ghost — The Baptism in the Holy Ghost and fire is a gift from God as promised by the Lord Jesus Christ to all believers in this dispensation and is received subsequent to the New Birth. This experience is accompanied by the initial evidence of speaking in other tongues as the Holy Spirit Himself gives utterance (Matt. - 5 – 3:11; John 14:16,17; Acts 1:8; Acts 2:38,39; Acts 19:1-7; Acts 2:4).
Discipleship is teaching and training believers to be like Christ in character and to make responsible choices.
The emphasis is on holiness, righteousness, faithfulness, honesty,
sincerity, humility, prayerfulness, and the leading of disciplined and responsible lives. This is done at the level of individuals, where mature members take up the responsibility to disciple new converts.
Heart of Grace plays a leading role by providing systematic teaching and practical training.
Leadership development is based on the Apostolic Foundation. Appointments and
callings into leadership positions are based on character, charisma, and the leading of the Holy Spirit.
We will train and model the trustworthiness of God in leadership to encourage and develop trustworthiness in others. Use power and influence prudently and humbly. Foster loyalty. Demonstrate a commitment to the well-being of the entire congregation. Keep promises. Respond sensitively and appropriately to ministry
requests and needs: "Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much" (Luke 16:10).
We are partnered with many churches and can help guide you in finding a church.
