Soaking

[simpleone]

Hey guys...I had a chance to the Toronto Airport fellowship tonight - was pretty refreshing.
Just a question - they seem to big on "soaking" ...and have sessions, music for this...so people just relax, lie down during the service..

This is slightly a new concept for me - anyone have thoughts on this?

thx

I practice this privatey. It's awesome. Just lying in God's presence, feeling it.....hearing from God ... it's a great way to connect with God.

i think its what my wife and i used to call "basking"

just basically being still in Gods presence.

We have been doing something similar to this on Sunday evenings and from what people have told me, it is quite powerful. To me it is very similar to altar time.

I need to try that one day when my daughter isn't here LOL.

we use to do that at our old church durinf prayer meetings. It's very powerful. I remember always crying (good crying) during those service cause he would touch me in a way that was indescribable.

I lay before the Lord Daley

Sometimes I even snore in the Holy Ghost!

“Soaking Prayer” is just one of the latest P/C buzz words. I think we used to call it “praying through.”

You can do a wrong thing long enough that it looks right.​

Sometimes I get so busy, in the early a.m., I just turn on soft worship music and sit with God, it's my best time of the day.

I'd love to do this coporately some time.

Will we did it occasionally at prayer meetings, and it taught me to take the time to get quiet on the inside. Being prone is comfortable and for me helps disallow so many distractions. Moses frequently prostated himself before the Lord.

During the early years being prone helped me to lay aside my cares and worries and focus on Jesus. Now a days I rarely lay down, but by daily habit can get quiet on the inside - even in a public place.
