Message Preparation
Hi friends. Mom and I have been sending text messages back and forth for the last few minutes. She's having to prepare four messages today to get ready for tonight's and tomorrow morning's sessions. I don't know how she does it! Only the Lord! If you wouldn't mind, would you lift up this preparation time to the Lord?
After these sessions, she will stay in New Orleans and film intros and outros until Monday. Looking at it that way, she is about halfway through. I'm sure she could really use a big gust of the Spirit's wind to carry her on. Thanks for investing in this taping with your prayers, sisters!
We love you,
Amanda

Continuing in prayer! Thanks for letting us know, for I had no idea how long the taping would go.
We will be praying from Billings, Montana for her fresh wind. We Love the Lord and the way Beth has served Him is inspiring us all!
Thanks,
Theo Gonzales
Praying for a continued Spirit filled taping.
I'm home for lunch and got online for a few minutes. I got on my knees to pray after I read the request. You're right...we don't know how she does it, except through God giving her wisdom and strength. She amazes me for sure. She rarely even looks at her notes!
I appreciate her so much!
"God, bless Beth in a very special way today. Pour out Your favor on her in ways that are more than we could even ask or think!!!" Amen!
Praying for you Beth, and all those involved with the taping,
that our Lord will show tangible evidence of His provision again. Mighty is our God!
Praying for a fresh breeze to sustain her through...
I think she'll be glad to get home and hopefully enjoy some rest and pampering from "Supperman"...
I did Breaking Free ~10 years ago, but I want to see the new sessions when they are released.
Hugs,
Adrienne
Praying for the Spirit's wind to carry her on during prep and teaching time! What a privilege to pray for one who has been such an inspiration to me!
Love,
Dianne
Oh Wow! I would be a basket case! I don't know how she does it either. Praying now.
Blessed to be able to lift her and the whole crew up in prayer! It is blowing in cold weather here, but praying for a warm blowing in of the Holy Spirit like she has never felt before in New Orleans.
Beth - keep running - the prize is just ahead.
Kim
I consider it an honor to keep Miss Beth in prayer especially today!! Prayers are coming from windy South Dakota!

"Sun! Stand still!" Come, Lord Jesus... fill Beth to overflowing with your Spirit, your wisdom, your joy, your love, your insight, your power, your strength, your word, your encouragement. Part the sea that stands before her these next few days. Stretch out your powerful right hand to uphold her and equip her. Remind her that she is competently competent in you. Multiply her efforts a hundred-fold and more!!! Bind the enemy in every way. Holy Spirit, pour in and over Beth and the entire team; pour through her and land on all the women (and men!) that will fill that sanctuary this evening and tomorrow morning; grant her words and wisdom and insight that will extend blessing and freedom by your power and goodness for years to come through DVDs and member books. Jesus died that we might be free! It was for freedom that Christ set us free! Heavenly Father, equip, empower, and use Beth this weekend to set your people free!
Beth, I read these verses from Ezekial this morning and couldn't help but think of you and the work and ministry you're doing today (I just love all the WILL-s!):
Ezekial 34:11-16a and Ezekial 36:25-29... There's a lot there, but in short, thus "declares the Lord God. I will seek the lost and I will bring back the strayed, and I will bind up the injured, and I will strengthen the weak... I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit within you. And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh... you shall be my people, and I will be your God."
May it be. Blessings and love and prayer.
Linda in MN
Continuing to pray for you!!
Lifted an immediate prayer for a mighting re-filling of the Holy Spirit. Thanks for giving us the opportunity to join together in intensified prayer perhaps when our Siesta Momma needs it most!
still praying!!!! its been nearly a month since ive written on this blog! sad day!!! Normally im addicted to this blog! Life has been very crazy! I posted about a week ago that my brothers GF was having an abortion and to pray.....thank you all for your prayers and support! She did have the abortion sadly! But God is working through this!
Oh Jesus, You alone know how much strength our sweet siesta Beth needs right now and You alone know how beyond-words much your children need to hear what You're going to speak through her. So PLEASE pour out your power in and through her. Meet her needs and meet ours through Your word as she proclaims it. Protect and sustain her and use her Lord. Keep using her! Carry her through and remind us to keep praying for her. In Your Powerful, Faithful, Mighty Name Jesus, amen!!!
Sending prayers her way RIGHT NOW!
Green Bay, Wisconsin is lifting you! We're asking God to send some of our northern wind your way. That'll get you goin'! :-)
Wow! You better believe we're praying! I bet she is going to be ready for a spa day by the time next weekend rolls around! (and if I could send her to one I would!)
blessings!
steph.
I'm proud to play any part, and honored that my part is prayer.
Will pray for her through the weekend too!
much love,
lavonda
I don't know how she does it either. It is obviously the Lord working through her. I live near Precpet Ministries and see Kay Arthur run a round like that. She has so much on her plate and never slows down. I am telling you she does circles around me. Circles. It inspires me so much that I can't help but pray to the Lord to give me strength like that. It is a grace poured out so these precious, godly women can serve, as the Bible says, "Serve with the strength that is given to you". I am praying that the Lord will continue to pour out His stregth on Beth so that she can continue to serve with power from on High.
Thank you for all that you pour out as well Amanda. Thank you for all the times you've overlooked offense (offenses that come when working with people), thanks for all the times you've sacrificed so we could have, thanks for all the times you have prayed for us, believed in us and invested in us. We love you and know that your mother is a stronger woman with her two daughters and son in law laboring with her shoulder to shoulder.
Father, in the name of Jesus, for Your glory, I pray that Your Spirit would guide and bless Beth and everyone involved in preparation of the message YOU want spoken! Thank you for their service, and thank You for being a God who reigns! In the precious, powerful name of Jesus I pray,
AMEN!
SUCH a privilege and so much fun, too. Praying.......
karen :) :)
For some reason I thought yesterday was the last day...boy was I wrong! Thanks so much for letting us know. I will kick the prayers back up a notch!
Kelli
I do have one funny before I get serious: when I saw this post I thought it said MASSAGE preparation! I was like... huh?
But seriously, we will be lifting her up! We are New Orleanians, and it makes me happy to know that Beth and co. are here and the Spirit is moving!!!! PRAISE!
Abolutely!! I woke up praying this morning and the prayers will continue!!!!
I can only imagine the exhaustion she must feel during such a process! May God give her an overflowing sense of His Spirit's presence, guidance, and energy as she works!!!
Always in prayer with thanksgiving for a ministry that has impacted the world. God bless, energize, and bring His words...His will...His way! ~In His grip~ Theresa
Abba Father, I pray for my sister Beth. We are here to hold her hands up in the midst...
Annoint her. Sustain her. Bless her.
I am praying here in Ferndale Wa.
love you all
From the most southern tip of Canada, we will pray "that the Lord will fill you with spiritual wisdom and strengthen you with His glorious might so that you WILL HAVE great endurance, patience, and joyfullness". (Colossians 1:9-12) Amen and Amen.!
emailing this right now to my girlfriend prayer partners!!
PRAYING NOW.
You got it. I'll continue to cover her in prayer. Thanks for the update, Amanda and for making this need known.
Praying for a spirit filled experience.
~Cheryl
Just yesterday in my "Breaking Free" study, we watched the session in which Beth talks about God pouring out His Spirit to us in the end days (Acts 2:17). I will be praying that God will pour out His Spirit upon Beth as she prepares these final messages!
On a different note...if Beth is in New Orleans through the weekend, I guess she's gonna miss Nutcracker Market in Houston. Ya'll should make a roadtrip to Austin the weekend of the 21st through the 23rd and come to A Christmas Affair! We'd love to have you!
Love,
Kristin in Austin
I will continue on praying for her! She will be ready for Thanksgiving in the mountains after this. ;)
Love you all,
Patty
Father,
Breathe afresh upon Beth and this crew. Let them rest at night and rest in You. Guide them as only You can Lord Jesus. Bring fresh HOLY ANOINTING UPON THIS ENDEAVOR. For Your glory and honor Lord Jesus......Amen.
Lovingly will continue to do so, Yolanda
LORD,
Only You have Beth's days ordered, only You can be her strength. Father keep her close, help her not to see this situation with Earthly eyes, but eyes filled with Faith. Don't let Satan have that battle LORD. You "don't need weapons to rescue your people. It is your battle not ours and you will give the victory to us."
Give her victory this day Lord. She KNOWS desperate, she has made that clear. Use this desperation to ride in on your horse and save the day. Spirit, I pray you have your way. Burn the truth, whether you change the plan, or require her to leave all her preparation at the hotel room. May she trust your plan and not need hers to be successful.
There is no doubt LORD, the soil of her heart has been fertile and is producing 100 fold. To you be the glory LORD!
Continuing to pray for you Beth and all associated with the tapings - I had no ideas that they were so involved!!! I pray God's special annointing on you mentally, physically and spiritually to give you more of HIM. He said "call on Me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know" (Jer. 33:3)May he pour out His favor on you in a really BIG way!!!
Amanda, thanks for keeping us in the loop and giving us the privilege of lifting Beth!
MIGHTY FATHER,
Sustain, Renew & Empower your servant.
Breaking Free is sooooo needed in this world. People are changed by "this" study, Father.
Your child needs you. Meet her.
We love you God.
In Jesus Name, Amen
andrea t.
Praying for you Beth!
Praying....
Praying!
I'm praying for a strong gust of Holy Spirit power to breeze through in a fresh new vibrant way! God bless you amazingly as you have blessed my heart through your teaching of the Word!
As a praise to God as only He could have done this, the warden at Perryville Prison in AZ has approved the Breaking Free study for a study which went from 25 women to 65 women! We just finished raising all the money this Monday to purchase the workbooks so the study will in the next couple of week! Isn't that too wonderful? Only God could have caused a prison warden to approve "Breaking Free."
Your momma has been on my heart ALL DAY LONG....maybe the Holy Spirit has been nudging me to pray....and that is what I'm doing.
Praying her through. He WILL see her through.
Much love,
Fran
Praying for Mrs. Beth. I live in Louisiana (about an hour from N.O.). Looks like God is bringing us rain and wind today. It will also be cold on Saturday through Monday. Praying.
Tina in LA
Is anyone else out there guilty of scanning over the blog topics while paying bills ect? I did that I out of the corner of my eye, instead of seeing Message Preparation I saw Melissa's Pregnant. I was all... WHAT! So then I stopped and actually read what it said and laughed myself silly.
I will definitely be in prayer for the taping sessions. (I will also be going to get my eyes checked soon)
Praying...God has been prompting me throughout the day to keep this in prayer. Beth, you have many warriors praying you through this. May God be magnified!
Continuing to pray at appointed time and many other times each day!
God is with you Mighty Warrior!
Melana in Wyoming
Praying specificially: here's my "top 5" :-)
1. God's presence and guidance on what exactly to say and when: there would be no extra need for energy to be expended on this...it would be VERY CLEAR
2. God's refreshement and rest between tapings that would be mulitplied many times over to supply all the energy needed to keep going STRONG!
3. God's protection from the enemy, so that there would be no doubts, no anxiety/second-guessing and no weariness that causes depression or sadness.
4. The arms of God wrapped around Beth and the crew: there would no mistaking that He is loving and leading them through this taping!
5. F-U-N! That many laughs, giggles and guffaws would make the moments light and joyeous!
:-)
Praying for a fresh wind, fresh fire!
I know she will make it through, and we'll all be blessed because of it.
I'll be praying for you all weekend Beth. This verse comes to mind for you.
"The Sovereign Lord is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, he enables me to go on the heights." Habakkuk 3:19
I'll pray too that you are sleeping well!!!
You bet I am praying. What a schedule. Thanks, Beth, and fellow LPM staffers, for giving so much time and energy into a ministry that strengthens so many.
Nicole
Prayers from Knoxville, Tenn. I stopped in the midst of this hectic day and asked the Lord to continue to pour His wisdom, strength, peace, and guidance upon Beth and the entire Team. Continue to allow His Words to speak from your heart.
Oh......have I mentioned how excited I am to embark on Breaking Free AGAIN with the newest editions....I just can't wait.
Lots of Tennessee Love, Kim
It is always a privilege to pray for her. I'm getting on my knees now.
Anne in MO
Thank you Beth Moore for being willing to speak the truth, to spend yourself for others. God is doing a new wonderful thing in those of us having the pleasure to be here for the taping and I know that it is only a taste of the amazing things that will happen as this material hits the public next Fall. Thank you to your wonderful Keith for sharing you with us and to your family, Lifeway, Living Proof staffs and everyone who supports and encourages you to make it possible. Most of all, praises to our glorious God that He has called you and that "we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us!"

Cool, CA
Father God...I thank you SO much for Beth and her ministry. I pray your Spirit fills her to overflowing and she senses you in every minute of preparation and teaching. Please protect her from negative feelings and thoughts that she struggles with about herself. Let her know how much she is helping your children turn to you in passion and love for you, your Son, your Word! She has helped me learn so much and has pointed me to YOU alone. Bless her, Lord. Please grant her physical strength, emotional strength, mental strength, and especially spiritual wisdom during these next few days. Protect her, in the name of Jesus, from any lies from Satan. Thank you, Father, for what you are doing in Beth and through Beth. We love you! In Jesus' precious name, Amen
Continuing to lift sweet Beth up in prayer. Lord, give her a fresh anointing and renew her strength. Fill her up with your Spirit to overflowing!
Thank you Beth for being such an obedient servant of God. You can't imagine how blessed I have been by all of your studies.
In His Grip of Grace,
Beth Herring
Praying for an overwhelming sense of restfulness and confidence in the Lord. Praying that Beth is sustained and carried. Also that she knows no one could do what she does just like she does it. Thanks for the opportunity to pray for you guys.
Christi, AL
Praying. Strength Holy Spirit - clarity - peace.

You are loved, so very much. . .
Praying for Beth at 6:00am each day and continuing all through the day. This is such an important time in history and I feel such an urgency and burden for lost souls. God is using Beth in such a mighty way.I feel it is so important for all of us to cover her in prayer. I feel so honored to bring her before the throne. Wilma from TN
Praying for you in Sioux Falls, SD!
Dear Heavenly Father
Thank you for your servant Beth. She is pouring out herself and all the information and hard work she has prepared and labored over for this study. Fill her up to the brim with strength, wisdom, revelation,joy, words that reach the heart and words that change lives. May your spirits power be released with her teaching and may she throw her head back and look up toward heaven and hear you singing over her and feel your delight over her. We thank you Lord for Beth who is so willing to sacrifice so much to bring us your word with passion and authenticity that makes us love you with all our hearts and seek to know you more. May she feel the wind of the spirit on her face and the hand of the Lord on her. Delight her with
treasures along the way that she can ponder in her heart and that will set her heart ablaze with love for you, a fresh wind full of joy and satisfaction. Just bless her Lord for she brings much glory to your name and these studies bear much fruit for your kingdom. She is teaching with all her heart Lord so you just do what you do. Be huge!! Be Marvelous. We thank you for your word Lord , may it be a book that we just can't put down. In Jesus name amen.
I finished "Breaking Free," at the end of July and I don't think words can describe the work God has and is doing. I thought it might kill me, but really it ushered me into the life my Savior died to give me! I had no idea how messed up I was or how free I could be. If we would, "Do what it says!"(James 1:22)it really works!!LOL Mrs. Moore I am sure you have heard this a thousand times, but I just discovered your blog, so thank you from me! Thank you from my husband and 3 beautiful children! Keep going this week, I don't know if I ever would have found this freedom on my own or come to know my Father and fall in love with Him if it had not been for you! You are making a difference!
What a blessing this video will be to so many! Please Father fill Beth with power that could only come from You to fulfill your plan for this lecture. Hear our prayers that she may overflow with Your peace and preparedness. We praise You Lord Jesus.
On my knees!
The One who calls you, Beth, is faithful and He will do it! 1 Thessalonians 5:24

My sweet Mama Beth, Breaking Free was an unbelievable study for our women's group. It was the vehicle which made so many of us step out of the boat like Peter and come to Jesus wholeheartedly, leaving the shackles of our past behind once and for all. I am praying for fresh wind, fresh fire, and fresh power from our blessed Holy Spirit for you. Heaven will show what your desperate, contagious love for our Savior has done in the lives of thousands upon thousands of women who have joined you in your holy pursuit of Him. I love you so, Shawn
Lord...give her Your spiritual words that will do Your spiritual work!!
Praying!
How does she do it? I know it has to be the Lord but that woman has more energy than the energizing bunny! Praying that Beth will get a fresh wind of physical and spiritual energy. Can't wait to see the end result, Carla Lee
I am praying for you Beth and may a great work be done in His NAME!
God bless your life for the work you are doing for Christ!
Tonight I will read my final chapter on "to live is Christ" and it is a little bittersweet right now for me. I loved this book so much but of course I have loved and have fallen in love with our AWESOME GOD and SAVIOUR through each of the studies/books I have read. This study on Paul has been fascinating and I cannot wait to begin a new study. I am thrilled to hear about the new Esther study and so look forward to it.
Okay I just wanted to tell you, Beth, our dear friend and teacher that I love ya and I am praying for you! May you rest in HIM!
Phillipians 4:13 :) You can do it Beth through the Lords' grace! Thank you!

Praying He carries her through these important messages. Breaking free is a heavy study and boy do we need to hear EVERYTHING the Spirit would want to teach us on teh subject.
I am late on the funny stories but had to post this. My friend's 3 year old started playing soccer and became frustrated when the other kids wouldn't "share" the ball. My friend had trouble explaining how to play because it seemed to go against all of their at home rules for playing. So dad stepped in and told his daughter that she needed to be mean to which she responded "oh, like this ROAR!" She now runs up to other kids roaring at them like a lion and taking the soccer ball from them to try and score.
My Bible study group is on Week 6 of "A Woman's Heart." I had signed us up to pray for Beth during our time together (Thursday @ 9am) which we humbly and joyously did! Thanks for allowing us to be part of your ministry.
Whew, sounds like a long week with great blessing! Thanks for sharing Amanda.
Love,
Stacie Landess
Praying for a fresh anointing and strength as you finish up Beth. I am anxious to see the new "Breaking Free". I have several loved ones who need to Break Free for good! Thank you for all you give and sacrifice for us. May we never take you or God for granted.
Praying for Beth and the taping. Thank you Lord in advance for all that will be accomplished for the Kingdom!
Nurse Pat in Kansas
Dear Beth,
It is Friday evening, and I just finished scrubbing my sink out with comet. I prayed for you while I scrubbed- thank you for your sacrifice to do what God has called you to do. I am in a book club right now with many non/new believers- we are reading Get Out of That Pit. Light is coming into their dark lives- God is changing hearts because of your straight talk. I say this to strengthen and encourage you because teaching God's word is a very scary calling. Keep up your faithful work- rest is coming soon!
Still praying !!!
I'm still praying! God Bless.
Absolutely praying!!! Thank you for the update- I agree with Holly; I had no idea that a taping lasted this long and was this intense! And we're just the ones praying; not the ones teaching!
Been trying to get on here all night from cell phone but it wouldn't work. Know, Beth, you have been lifted up and will continue to be. In the words of Jan Karon's Father Tim,"Consider it done!"
Holy Father, I pray that You would be the Author and Finisher of this teaching and taping today. I can see Your Hand all over this! So many hearts desperate for Your taking captivity captive! My chains are gone...I've been set free...Amazing Love, Amazing Love. Bless these final moments and may all who watch and experience this walk away hungry for more of You. Bless Beth 200fold. In Jesus Name. Amen.
praying for you in London, UK! I love you !!
Amanda: Thank you - I literally cannot get this BF re-taping off my heart and mind.
God is doing a great work - I believe - I believe!
Praying,
Georgia Jan
Praying, praying!!
It is a blessing to pray for her.
Ms Beth, time alone came be a good thing, or a thing to rattle your cage. Honey, my cage has been rattled so much,by isolations it's almost fallen apart. :0)
Seriously, I have asked the Lord to fill the emply places where other people have friends. You my sweet friend are not alone.
We love ya Beth
becky in brentwood
Little Momma, I sure will continue to lift Spiritual Mom Beth up in prayer, with the filling of the Spirit at the top of the list:)...The tapings have been on my mind all week, praying for her and the crew:) I know the Lord is using and is going to use these tapings to set us free, and glorify Himself!:)..Lord, I pray for that big gust of Yourself to wash over Beth and the crew. I pray for peacefulness of spirit, and focus of thoughts on You. Perfect peace, with Beth's mind stayed on You. I pray for deliverance from anything that would hinder. You will be glorified, and our lives will be changed. We want to love You, with everything in us. In Jesus' Name, Amen:)

Thanks for the updates and still praying!! :)
Amanda,
You gotta it honey, I have prayed for your Momma, not jsut about this taping in New Orleans, but daily, .....also for you
Dear Father,
Would you please be with Beth and fill her with your spirit like nothing else can. Give her a fresh energy and word to do your will and teach us your word. Please fill her empty places with you Father, give her a gush of you and be big in her situation.
For it's in Jesus precious name I pray, Amen.

Precious Father,
Please be with Beth and let your Spirit shine through her. Please give her safety and confidence in You.
In your Son's mighty name.
