The Relational approach involves “Worship in the Spirit”. The ever-evolving first-person relationship building process which takes place within the “Sacred Environment of Spiritual Harmony” exemplified by the experience of “Peace Transcending All understanding”.

The object of the relational approach is to come into a knowing of Him personally. God the Father desires the Holy Spirit guide each of His children through a lifelong adventurous journey of spiritual discovery where one finds purpose and the abundant life God promises to all, but that so few experience.

This unfortunately is because “Worship in the Spirit” has become a “Long Lost Art”

The Religious approach to God involves the observance of ordinances, religious traditions, and ceremonies handed down from generation to generation whether Hebrew, Catholic, Islamic, Protestant Christian, or New Age. Religion teaches about God through an ever evolving third person process of assimilation.

The object of Religion is to develop “faithful followers”; follower of the specific religion practiced at the exclusion of all other considerations.

Religion purposes to suppress critical thought, suppress critical debate, and to thwart Biblical Reckoning.

“Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks.”

The Apostle John speaks of the kind of worship that is tangible and communicative in nature, thus promoting an ever-evolving personal relationship with the God who made you and me.

Worship in the Spirit is the believer’s gateway into an everyday, lifelong “journey of adventurous Spiritual discovery” practiced within the Sacred Environment of Spiritual Harmony the Holy Spirit uniquely offers to establish in each of God’s children.

The Kingdom of Heaven is discoverable on earth through the lifelong “journey of adventurous Spiritual discovery”; called Sanctification.

Worshipping in Truth occurs in the mind. We read The Word, we listen to The Word preached, we consider the scriptural interpretations of Bible Centric Scholars, we form a composite image of God in our minds based on the knowledge we collect “about God”. We worship in Truth by striving in our own strength, making every human attempt to know about and understand God.

Worshipping in the Spirit occurs in the heart. Worship in the Spirit is the intimate and personal interaction between God and man. Worship in the Spirit is the tangible manifestation of “God abiding in a Born-Again Christian, and the Christian abiding in God”.

We Worship in the Spirit by submitting to the “Will of the Father” by inviting the Holy Spirit to guide us. By this we are “Transformed” in that we learn to forsake striving in our own strength and learn to strive without striving through the strength of the Holy Spirit.

These intimate conversations take place within a “Sacred Environment of Spiritual Harmony” where the spirit of man engages directly with the Spirit of Almighty God.

The language of the Spirit is in the form of Spiritual Harmonic Tones. God understands the complex emotional outputs of our hearts through the “Groanings” described in the bible.

Each of our groans radiates an emotional meaning that only God can fully understand. We, in turn, receive the groans of Almighty God in the form of fluctuations in Spiritual intensity that accompany experiencing “The Peace Transcending All Understanding”.

“THIS IS THE MANIFEST PRESENCE OF ALMIGHTY GOD AND THIS IS HOW WORSHIP IN THE SPIRIT TAKES PLACE!

Not in the verbal language of man, but in the exchange of “communicative groanings and Spiritual Inflections” through which each of us can clearly come to “KNOW” the thoughts of God, and He ours.

If the purpose of “Accepting the Saving Knowledge of Jesus Christ” is to enter into an intimate personal relationship with our Lord and Savior, then surely God would also provide a way for His children to discover and pursue the “Good Works” the Father planned for each before time began.

And He Surely did! The “Purposed Transformative Prayer Model” the Holy Spirit taught this Able-Nobody to demonstrate for others how easily this approach to Almighty God can be practiced by all “true believers”, both new and mature.

Just like the Salvation Experience, Sanctification played out through a Purposed Transformative Prayer lifestyle, at first seems too good to be true. But just like Salvation, it is!

Contemporary Expository Preaching focuses on teaching “saving knowledge”, The Great Commission!

The Church teaches “About God” but does not instruct believers in “How to know Him”!

The Art of Worship in the Spirit that began to die out with the advent of Catholicism is now being reintroduced on the “eve of these last days” according to the Devine will of Almighty God.

By practicing the Purposed Transformative Prayer Model taught to this Able-Nobody by the Holy Spirit, any Born-Again Believer who desire more out of their walk with God, may now enter into a tangible personal relationship with our Savior Jesus Christ.

• Purposed: God if nothing else, is purposeful and does not act in vain or act capriciously. And, He has prepared “good works” for His children to perform on earth. Accordingly, the object of Purposed Transformative Prayer Modeling is to enter into a state of Spiritual Harmony with God so that the Holy Spirit can lead each Sanctification-Nation “Nation Builder” into that adventurous journey of discovery where each person’s God Given Purpose is revealed unto the fulfillment of their God Given Potential.
• Transformative: As the Spirit leads, we learn to follow the Spirit’s prompting. We learn to strive without striving. Forsaking our own strength and relying on His. This is how we learn to surrender and submit to the will of God. We learn to trust in His faithfulness. We become teachable.
• Prayer: Communicative interaction “in the Spirit” takes place within a sacred environment of Spiritual Harmony, exemplified by the experience of “Peace Transcending All Understanding, which uniquely manifests when we proactively engage Almighty God in Prayer.

Purposed Transformative Prayer Modeling is not reciting scripture, it is an ongoing daily conversation with God through which a unique first-person relationship establishes through “communicative interaction”.

Consider “how we consider”! The consideration filter of Plausibility; “is what is being considered even possible”? Plausibility is each human’s individual assessment of what one believes to be possible and what one believes is impossible.

Add in the filter of Palatability; “given a consideration is deemed plausible, will that individual find the consideration to be acceptable to believe in and act on?

This is the lens through which many may first come to consider Purposed Transformative Prayer. Is it really possible to have a communicative, first-person relationship with God Almighty? And if by modeling the Purposed Transformative this proves to be so, how can this lifestyle impact my life?

• I’m John, the Developer of the Purposed Transformative Prayer approach to God.I have been practicing the PTP Lifestyle now for over five years. Experiencing the “Peace Transcending All Understanding” daily, enjoying the evolving relational fidelity that comes with spending quality time with God, learning about what most would consider, the mysteries of God.Through the process of relationship building, I discovered my God Given Purpose. And I am now pursuing the fulfillment of my God Given Potential through the advancement of this ministry.My God Given Purpose is to reintroduce the art of “Worshipping tin the Spirit” through the modeling of Purposed Transformative Prayer. It is God’s purpose to restore the kind of relational fidelity with Almighty God the first, second and third century Christians enjoyed while the Church is on the eve of these last days.I know God did not lead me to experience this lifestyle for my own edification. What I know, He has taught me for a purpose. And the purpose is to guide others in the Art of Sanctification.

I am inviting Born Again Believers to participate in Test-Driving the Purposed Transformative Prayer Model. The first Nation Builders will provide meaningful and useful insights and feedback at each phase of this program. (click on the nation builders tab to find out more)

Our goal is to qualify and quantify the effectiveness of the Purposed Transformative Prayer Model. How easily will one come to experience that Peace Transcending All Understanding, how quickly does the prayer experience turn communicative, and how quickly does the Holy Spirit offer His special insights into the pressing Spiritual questions of your day?

How quickly will the transformation take place; from striving in one’s own strength to striving in the strength of the Holy Spirit. Sanctification is after all is the process of seeding our exercise of free will to the God who knows each of us better than we know ourselves.
