Greetings in the name of the Lord! God is doing great things and I am so excited to be a part of the ministry team at Desert Reign Assembly of God. My name is Brenda Iacovelli and I am the Prayer Pastor at Desert Reign.
I am a third generation “preacher’s kid.” My first introduction to prayer was through my mother and my two great grandmothers. They were prayer warriors. I remember waking up as a child in the middle of the night to the sounds of my mother praying for her husband and children. To hear my name called out before God would bring such a sense of peace. Over the years I have reaped the rewards of my mother’s prayers.
I am now a mother and in the early morning hours I pray over my husband and children. My biggest prayer is to see the heritage of prayer passed on to my children. Psalm 61:5 says, “For you have heard my vows, O God; you have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.” It is never too late for a heritage. You can begin that heritage right now in your own family.

Guide to Prayer in the Bible
This is what the Lord says; He who made the earth, the Lord who formed it and established it- the Lord is His name: “Call to Me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things.” Jeremiah 33:2-3
Ask me and I will make the nations Your inheritance, the ends of the earth Your possession. Psalm 2:8
He saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor; therefore His own arm brought salvation for Him; and His own righteousness, is sustained Him. Isaiah 59:16
And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will be forgiven. Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective. Elijah was a man just like us. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it do not rain on the land for three and a half years, Again he prayed, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth produced crops. James 5:15-18
“I looked for a man among them who would build up a wall and stand before me in the gap on behalf of the land so I would not have to destroy it, but I found none. So I will pour out My wrath on them and consume them with My fiery anger, brining down on their heads all they have done,” declares the sovereign Lord. Ezekiel 22:30-31
