Lila Terhune
Intercessor/Prayer Coordinator
Lila, originally from California, lived a short time in Mississippi before moving to Pensacola, FL. in 1995. This move occurred just 3 months into what the world refers to as the 'Brownsville Revival'. Lila was the Prayer Coordinator for Brownsville Assembly of God.
Lila and her husband Bob are both in the ministry, ordained and licensed. They have served the Lord Jesus for many years. They have four grown children, several grandchildren and are even blessed with great-grandchildren who Lila faithfully states are "all 'earmarked' for the Kingdom."
Lila was not raised in a Christian home, never heard the gospel, but because of a praying friend and the drawing of the Father by the Holy Spirit, she was saved in 1961. Through the friend who had witnessed and prayed for her for three years, Lila saw the power of prayer in her own life.
Prayer has since developed in Lila through the years. She says she blames a lot of that on her husband Bob. Lila says, "When you have a husband who worked in the motion picture field as a stunt man, not knowing what he’d face each day would certainly make you develop a prayer life."
Although labeled by many as 'Intercessory Prayer Leader', Lila said she never really called herself an intercessor, as if it is different from someone who prays. She says she is a 'believer' who understands that we are all called to pray; we are all called to be intercessors. She further states, "Anyone can develop intercession to a deeper level, it is all in relationship. We try to teach that, encouraging others to develop a deeper relationship with Jesus. Intercession and the love for others, the burden for the nations, will all come as an overflow out of what God is doing in your own heart. Prayer is always the answer."
