One of the first recorded prayer walks in the Bible was around the city of Jericho. Joshua gave some instructions for an elaborate event that spanned seven days. Thousands of people attended and it had a dramatic ending. That first prayer walk around a city has become a model that many today still follow. Kendra Miller adapted that idea into a present day outdoor prayer walk.

By doing a prayer walk, Kendra got an idea for how she could bring prayer into her daily routine. Students do a lot of walking. So why not use that time to pray as you walk. Rather than wait for an organized event, she could pray often every day. It became a way to practice the Biblical idea of "praying without ceasing." Kendra stayed engaged in an ongoing way. The same can be true for you in your neighborhood, workplace and beyond. You can pray for the people and places around as you go about your natural activities!

Joshua 6:8-16

And just as Joshua had commanded the people, the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams' horns before the Lord went forward, blowing the trumpets, with the ark of the covenant of the Lord following them. The armed men were walking before the priests who were blowing the trumpets, and the rear guard was walking after the ark, while the trumpets blew continually. But Joshua commanded the people, “You shall not shout or make your voice heard, neither shall any word go out of your mouth, until the day I tell you to shout. Then you shall shout.” So he caused the ark of the Lord to circle the city, going about it once. And they came into the camp and spent the night in the camp.

Then Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests took up the ark of the Lord. And the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of the Lord walked on, and they blew the trumpets continually. And the armed men were walking before them, and the rear guard was walking after the ark of the Lord, while the trumpets blew continually. And the second day they marched around the city once, and returned into the camp. So they did for six days.

On the seventh day they rose early, at the dawn of day, and marched around the city in the same manner seven times. It was only on that day that they marched around the city seven times. 16 And at the seventh time, when the priests had blown the trumpets, Joshua said to the people, “Shout, for the Lord has given you the city.

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
