Stand in Prayer: Learning to Pray with Purpose, Power, and Intentional Strategy with Liz Holtzman

Forty years in prayer ministry will teach you a few things. But what Liz Holtzman has learned goes far beyond what to say — she's learned WHY it works, and that knowledge changes everything.
Liz is a retired special education teacher, intercessor, Bible study author, and longtime leader in Moms in Prayer International. Her new Bible study, Stand in Prayer: Purposeful Prayer with Powerful Outcomes, grew out of decades of teaching sixth graders, mentoring women, and showing up to pray when she didn't always have the words.
In this episode, she pulls back the curtain on the prayer model she's used and taught for years — walking us through the power of praise, confession, thanksgiving, and requests, and why the sequence matters more than we realize. She also shares how to mine Scripture for prayers that align with God's will, a stunning answered-prayer story from the villages of Cameroon, and what she discovered about intercession in the aftermath of her husband's sudden death.
If you've ever felt like your prayer life was flat, scattered, or powerless — this episode is for you. Pull up a chair. This one goes deep.
