I seek prayer for repentance of vanity, pride, anxiety, social anxiety, anger, lots of anger, jealousy and bitterness (which is so tough to overcome), not having paid all my debts in the past or forgiven others in the same manner I have been forgiven and any form of deceit as well as Deliverance for myself and my wife from a familiar spirit and my past involvement. I seek a sound mind trusting in and focused on God. I also have a praise for getting really far with a potential job and seek guidance, direction, and lots of wisdom with the rest of process. I am told I am just waiting on a position to open which is a real blessing and I seek prayer for the right position and really soon. I seek peace for everyone involved and joy for the family with the potential move

Spiritual Practices

Our lives run at a relentless 24/7 pace of so much noise, motion, and stress, that it leaves little room to attend to the health of our souls. Yet that is where our greatest source of energy, life, and spiritual vitality come from! Engaging in regular time with God recalibrates us to the life of the Spirit within, transforming us from the inside out. Take some time to explore and experiment with a variety of spiritual practices today – the freshness of new life awaits!

Daily Spiritual Exercise

Each week we create daily spiritual practices to help you connect with God beyond the one-hour-a-week of our Weekend Services. These are designed to disrupt your daily routine and stimulate a posture of openness to God’s presence and activity in your life.

More than just something to add to your already crowded “to do” list, daily practices awaken us to the spiritual reality all around us, helping us live connected 24/7 to the power and presence of Jesus.

Want to receive these practices daily to your phone? Simply download the Southridge app, and turn on the Spiritual Practices notification under Settings.

Breath Prayer

Breath prayer is a way of aligning our patterns of breathing with simple words or phrases, to grow in the biblical encouragement of ‘praying without ceasing.’
