Outrageous Prayer

There is something powerful—almost indescribable—about outrageous prayer. It’s the kind of prayer that dares to ask big, bold, things from God. Outrageous prayer is not irreverent; it is full of faith. It believes God can, even when circumstances say He won’t. It steps past polite religion and presses into divine relationship, crying out, “Lord, do what only You can do!”

Ephesians 3:20 reminds us, “Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us” (NASB). God invites us not just to whisper safe prayers but to believe for the miraculous. The outrageous pray-er is not reckless, but radically confident in God's goodness.

Don’t be afraid to pray outrageously. Heaven isn’t shocked by your boldness—He delights in your trust. So try praying this way boldy today and see what God does.
