Healing Prayer @ Windsor Vineyard
Why and What to Expect
WHY
We aim to do as Jesus did and as he taught. Where the Lord went the work of the enemy was undone and goodness of many types followed. Christ proclaimed and demonstrated that the Kingdom of God was at hand as he healed souls, emotions, and bodies. We live in the tension of the Kingdom come and yet still coming. Until Jesus returns, healing prayer aims to continue “Your Kingdom Come” and “on earth as it is in Heaven” in the lives of people today, establishing wholeness, lifting oppression, and releasing new life. This is for everyone. This is God’s heart for all his kids.
Jesus went throughout Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom, and healing every disease and sickness among the people. News about him spread all over Syria, and people brought to him all who were ill with various diseases, those suffering severe pain, the demon-possessed, those having seizures, and the paralyzed; and he healed them. (Matthew 4:23-24)
When Jesus had called the Twelve together, he gave them power and authority to drive out all demons and to cure diseases, and he sent them out to proclaim the kingdom of God and to heal the sick. (Luke 9:1-2)
Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the works themselves. Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. (John 14:11-12)

Scheduling a prayer session is a wise decision and a healthy seeking of the Lord’s grace for anyone who has put their hope in Jesus. The goal is simply to connect with the love of the Father. Healing, wholeness, and freedom to be more of who God created you to be … that’s the heart behind Windsor Vineyard prayer sessions.
WHAT TO EXPECT
A small, trained and compassionate prayer team will be prepared to minister to you confidentially by the Holy Spirit’s leading. We will pray for any healing needs (physical, emotional, spiritual) and any prayer request you share. Our first priority will always be connecting you to the love of God.
Prayer Sessions are generally scheduled in 1 hour 30 minute blocks. We have a confidential form for you to complete before your session, which helps your prayer leader prepare. If you have any questions, please ask! This time of prayer will be a blessing to your mind, body and spirit.

Our prayer sessions are rooted in the classic Vineyard 5-step prayer model, and our prayer teams are graduates of the School of Kingdom Ministry, where they received experiential integrated healing model training, focused on partnering with the power of the Holy Spirit, the compassion of Jesus, and the love of Father God.
The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me,
because the Lord has anointed me
to proclaim good news to the poor.
He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
to proclaim freedom for the captives
and release from darkness for the prisoners
Isaiah 61:1 NIV
