Description

This podcast is a short Bible Study designed to take you through the Bible, one prayer at a time! We will study the circumstances behind each prayer and learn to strategically apply what we have learned to our prayer lives. In this podcast you will learn how to pray, the power of prayer, the art of repentance and more.

Real life means real pressures, but Prayer Reaches Every Single Situation (PRESS)! We don't always know how God will get in our situation, but we can be assured that He will get into our situations. Let's press together! Like, share and subscribe this weekly podcast for God-given prayer strategies for the end time followers of Jesus Christ.

The PRESS started in 2012 as a project for the Turning Point Youth Department (TPYD). The initial purpose of the PRESS was to actively recruit people to pray and document their prayer time so that TPYD could account for 1,000,000 minutes of prayer in one month. Not only did TPYD reach it's goal of accounting for a million minutes of prayer, but it was soon realized that the PRESS was bigger than simply counting minutes. In just a few short months of advertising, TPYD was on TV, radio, doing conferences and had over 17,000 fans on Facebook. The movement was only beginning! Now there a have been PRESS clubs in over 40 locations- including universities, YMCAs, neighborhoods, high schools and more! We are so excited for what the Lord has done through the PRESS!

Dangerous Obedience

Dangerous Obedience

2026-04-0118:31

In Acts 9, we encounter one of the most powerful moments in Scripture—the transformation of Saul. A man who once hunted the church, approved of murder, and operated with authority to destroy believers suddenly comes face-to-face with Jesus. What makes this moment so powerful isn’t just the encounter—it’s the response. Saul doesn’t argue. He doesn’t defend himself. He asks one question: “Lord, what would You have me to do?” That single prayer of surrender changes everything. At the same ...
In this episode, we walk through the powerful and sobering story of Stephen in Acts 6–7—the first martyr of the New Testament. Full of faith, wisdom, and the Holy Ghost, Stephen boldly stood on truth even when it cost him everything. Instead of defending himself before the Sanhedrin, he delivered one of the longest speeches in Scripture, exposing a pattern: God sends truth, and people reject it. His message didn’t just confront their actions—it challenged their beliefs. And they couldn’t hand...
What do you do when obedience gets you in trouble? In Acts 4, Peter and John are arrested, threatened, and commanded to stop speaking in the name of Jesus—all because of a miracle. But instead of backing down, they respond with one of the boldest prayers in Scripture. They don’t ask for safety. They don’t ask for protection. They don’t ask God to remove the pressure. They ask for MORE. More boldness. More miracles. More power in the name of Jesus. This episode breaks d...
The Name Did It!

The Name Did It!

In Acts chapter 3, Peter and John encounter a man who had been lame from birth, sitting daily at the temple gate begging for help. Like many people in need, he expected money. But God had something greater in store. The power was not in Peter or John—it was in the name of Jesus. In a world full of imitation power, the authority of Jesus’ name still brings healing, restoration, and transformation. #PressMovement #PrayerMovement #PressToPray #PrayerReaches #PrayerC...
In this episode of the Press Movement Podcast, we step into the opening chapter of Acts of the Apostles—the birth of the New Testament church. About 120 believers gather in an upper room waiting for the promise Jesus gave them: the Holy Ghost. But while they wait in prayer, they also face an important decision. Judas has fallen, leaving a place empty among the twelve apostles. The church must now decide who will fill that role. Instead of campaigning, debating, or fighting for position, the d...
In this powerful episode, we stand at the cross during the darkest hour in history. From Gospel of Luke 23 to Gospel of Matthew 27, we witness Jesus in His final moments—feeling forsaken, crying out in agony, yet refusing to abandon His assignment. “My God, my God, why hast Thou forsaken me?” These are not the words of unbelief. They are the honest cry of humanity in pain. Jesus shows us that faith does not cancel emotion—but emotion does not get to cancel faith. Darkness covered the earth. T...
Father, Forgive Them!

Father, Forgive Them!

2026-02-1814:14

At Calvary, Jesus offers one of the most powerful prayers ever recorded: “Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.” Beaten beyond recognition, publicly humiliated, abandoned by His closest followers, and nailed to a cross, Jesus does not pray for rescue or revenge. He prays for forgiveness — in the middle of His suffering. This episode explores the depth of that moment. Forgiveness here is not passive or sentimental. It is deliberate. It is costly. It is humility in action. Jesus...
Nevertheless…

Nevertheless…

In the Garden of Gethsemane, we witness one of the most vulnerable moments in scripture. Jesus, fully aware of the cross before Him, falls on His face and prays, “Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me.” He prays it once. Then again. And again. This episode of the PRESS Movement Podcast explores the power of repeated prayer and the strength found in surrender. Gethsemane shows us that asking God more than once is not a lack of faith. Even Jesus returned to the Father in His dist...
There are moments when everything you’ve prayed for feels like it’s hanging in the balance — not finished yet, but somehow already decided. That’s exactly where Jesus prays in John 17. In this episode of the PRESS Movement Podcast, we step into one of the most powerful prayers ever recorded — the prayer Jesus prayed right before everything changed. He declares, “Father, the hour is come,” and begins speaking as though the work is already finished… even though the cross is still ahead. T...
It Was All For This

It Was All For This

2026-01-2815:36

In this episode of the PRESS Movement Podcast, we dive into a prayer that reveals what to do when purpose feels heavy and pressure feels unavoidable. From John 12, Jesus prays a simple but powerful prayer: “Father, glorify thy name.” Surrounded by growing attention, rising opposition, and the weight of His calling, Jesus doesn’t ask to escape the moment — He embraces it. His soul is troubled. The hour is intense. The cost is real. Yet instead of backing away, He leans into purpose. This...
What do you do when God hears your prayer—but doesn’t move on your timeline? In this episode of the Press Movement Podcast with De'Shaun Harewood, we step into John chapter 11, where Jesus stands at a tomb, grief is heavy, faith is strained, and hope feels late. Lazarus is dead. Mary and Martha are mourning. The crowd is watching. And Jesus does something unexpected—He prays with confidence before the miracle happens. This prayer isn’t about asking. It’s about assurance. Jesus thanks the Fath...
As we step into 2026, the PRESS Movement Podcast turns our focus to a prayer that reveals how easy it is to miss God—even when He is standing right in front of us. In John chapter 6, the people prayed, “Lord, evermore give us this bread.” What they didn’t realize was that the Bread of Life was already there. They chased miracles, signs, and provision, yet failed to recognize Jesus as the answer to their prayer. In this episode, we unpack the danger of pursuing what is temporary while overlook...
In this episode of the Press Movement Podcast, we explore one of the most powerful faith moments in the New Testament—the healing of the nobleman’s son in John 4. When desperation meets faith, this father travels miles to reach Jesus, begging Him to come and heal his dying child. But Jesus responds in an unexpected way. Instead of going with him, Jesus speaks a word: “Go thy way; thy son liveth.” This episode challenges us to examine how much of our faith depends on what we see. What happens ...
In this powerful episode of the Press Movement Podcast, we step into one of the most intimate and revealing moments in the New Testament—Jesus praying for Peter in Luke 22. Before Peter ever denied Christ… before the rooster crowed… before his greatest failure… Jesus looked at him and said, “I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not.” Joined by special guest Lauren Shepherd, we explore what it means to be “sifted as wheat,” why the enemy targeted Peter, and how Jesus’ prayer didn’t stop...
Prayer: God Sees Your Heart takes us into Luke 18, where Jesus shares a powerful parable of two men who came to pray — and walked away with two very different outcomes. In this episode, we explore how prayer is not measured by volume, language, or length, but by honesty, humility, and the posture of the heart. One man prayed with pride, performance, and comparison. The other prayed with surrender, repentance, and truth. Jesus makes it clear: God answers the prayer that comes from a yielded he...
In this gripping episode of the Press Movement Podcast, Taquoya Porter walks us through one of the most sobering passages in all of Scripture — Luke 16, the account of the rich man and Lazarus. Unlike the parables surrounding it, this narrative is intentionally left vague, leaving listeners to wrestle with whether Jesus is telling a story… or exposing a true glimpse into eternity. Paula explores the rich man’s haunting reality: in hell, his memory is intact, his desires still burn, and his re...
In this episode of the PRESS Movement Podcast, we travel to Luke chapter 2 and meet Simeon—a man who waited faithfully for God’s promise to be fulfilled. After 400 silent years between the Old and New Testaments, Simeon stood as a beacon of hope, led by the Spirit and holding fast to his faith. When he finally saw the child Jesus in the temple, he lifted Him up and prayed, “Lord, now let your servant depart in peace.” Simeon didn’t wait for the promise to be completed—he blessed God for what ...
In this episode of the PRESS Movement Podcast, we uncover one of the most surprising “prayers” in the Bible—spoken not by a prophet or a disciple, but by the devils themselves. In Mark chapter 1, Jesus enters the synagogue, teaches with authority, and is confronted by an unclean spirit crying out, “Let us alone!” Though it comes from a dark source, this plea still recognizes the power and authority of Jesus Christ. Join us as we explore how even the devils must submit to Him, how belief witho...
In this week’s episode of the PRESS Movement Podcast, Taquoya Porter dives into Matthew 11—a short but powerful prayer where Jesus thanks the Father for revealing truth not to the proud, but to the humble. Jesus says, “I thank thee, O Father… because thou hast hidden these things from the wise and prudent and revealed them unto babes.” What does that mean for us today? Paula walks through the contrast between those who think they already know God and those who approach Him as teachable, molda...
In this week’s episode of the Press Movement Podcast, we enter the New Testament and begin with one of the most foundational teachings of Jesus—The Lord’s Prayer in Matthew 6. Join this heartfelt conversation with Reagan Porter about how Jesus modeled prayer for His disciples. Together, they unpack what it means to honor God as Father, to surrender to His will on earth as it is in heaven, to ask for daily provision, and to extend forgiveness as freely as we’ve received it. This episode is a b...
