Kingdom Prayer Armory app

App user manual

Use this page as a practical guide for the Armory app. The app’s main purpose is everyday prayer in real situations. When something is happening now and you need to pray clearly, the app helps you slow down, choose the cards that fit, and produce a prayer flow you can use in the moment. It also supports scenario training, group use, Leader mode, workbook support, and basic troubleshooting.

Using the app in everyday life

The app is not mainly a training tool. Its primary use is for real life: when you are facing a real situation, carrying real pressure, and need to pray with clarity right now.

In everyday use, you are not trying to “practice the right answer.” You are using the cards to name what is true, what is happening, and how to pray faithfully in the moment. The app helps you produce a prayer flow that fits the situation you are actually carrying.

  1. Name the real situation you need to pray about.
  2. Slow down before reacting to pressure, urgency, fear, anger, or confusion.
  3. Choose cards that fit what is clear, not cards that merely sound spiritual.
  4. Use the generated prayer flow as a starting point for your actual prayer.
  5. Stop when you have enough clarity to pray faithfully. You do not have to solve everything before you pray.

Training scenarios help you learn the flow, but the app is built for the moment when you need to pray through something real.

Quick start

The app helps you slow down and build a prayer response instead of reacting to pressure. Start with the real situation in front of you and move through the flow one step at a time.

  1. Open the app.
  2. Choose one Authority card.
  3. Choose one Identity card.
  4. Open Situation. Choose a category first, then choose one primary Situation or Warfare card.
  5. Use Consult Discernment whenever the issue is unclear.
  6. Read the prayer flow and pray from what is clear.
  7. Use Pass 2 only when a second layer is truly clear.

A good prayer flow does not have to cover everything. If there is peace, clarity, and a faithful next step, it is okay to stop.

The prayer flow

1) Authority

Authority starts with God’s rule. Before you name the problem, ask what is true about God in this situation.

2) Identity

Identity steadies the one praying. In intercession, the Identity card applies to the intercessor first, not automatically to the person being prayed for.

3) Situation

Situation names the real issue. Choose the category first, then choose the card that best names what is actually happening.

Discernment

Discernment helps when the issue is unclear. Use it before rushing, before adding a second layer, or before calling something warfare.

4) Prayer flow

The app builds a prayer flow from your choices. Pray what is most true now, and trust God with what unfolds later.

Pass 2

Pass 2 is optional. Use it only when there is a second issue that is clear enough to name without confusing the first issue.

App modes

Use the app menu to choose the mode. On a computer, the mode is in the app’s desktop menu. On a phone, open the app menu and choose Individual, Group, or Leader. The app remembers the last mode you selected until you change it.

Individual mode

Use this for everyday prayer, personal situations, homework, or one-on-one help. This is the normal mode for real-life use. The app behaves normally, and coaching appears when a training scenario is loaded and the prayer flow is ready.

Group mode

Use this when everyone is gathered together and choosing cards on their own device. Choose quietly first. Discuss together before revealing app coaching.

Leader mode

Use this when you are guiding the room. Leader mode shows only the current step and gives simple prompts: Ask first, Watch for, and Move on when.

Using the app with the Workbook and Leader’s Guide

The app supports the Small Group Workbook and Small Group Leader’s Guide through the weekly training pages. When a weekly training scenario opens in the app, the scenario briefing shows the week and whether the scenario is a Workbook practice scenario or a Leader’s Guide in-session scenario.

For participants

  • Use Individual mode for personal practice or homework.
  • Use Group mode when the group is gathered and discussing choices together.
  • Choose quietly before the group discusses the cards.
  • Do not reveal app coaching until the leader invites the group to do so.

For leaders

  • Use Leader mode for in-session scenarios from the Leader’s Guide.
  • Guide the room one step at a time.
  • Ask the group to explain choices before showing coaching.
  • Use the final prayer-flow summary to help the group land in one shared prayer response.

The app should support the discussion, not replace it. The best group use still happens out loud: people notice, explain, compare, discern, and pray together.

Using scenarios

Scenarios are training situations. They help people learn the flow without exposing private personal details in the group. They are useful, but they are not the main reason the app exists.

The main reason to learn with scenarios is so that, later, when a real situation comes up, you can use the app naturally and pray with clarity in the moment.

  1. Open a scenario from the scenario library or weekly training page.
  2. Read the scenario carefully before choosing cards.
  3. Choose cards based on what is clear in the scenario, not only what feels urgent.
  4. Use app coaching as training feedback after you have made your choices.

Scenario coaching is training feedback. It is meant to sharpen discussion, not replace prayer, leadership, or discernment.

Using the app in a group

Group mode is for gathered small groups. Each person uses the app privately at first, then the group discusses choices out loud.

  1. The leader names the scenario everyone should open.
  2. Participants switch to Group mode.
  3. Everyone reads the scenario and chooses quietly.
  4. The leader asks what people chose for Authority, Identity, and Situation.
  5. The group discusses differences before anyone reveals app coaching.
  6. After discussion, reveal coaching if it will help the group learn.
  7. The group settles on one shared prayer response and prays together.

The goal is not for everyone to click the same card quickly. The goal is to learn to notice, explain, compare, discern, and pray more clearly.

Using leader mode

Leader mode is for the person guiding the group. It keeps the app from becoming a passive demonstration and helps the leader slow the room down.

What leader mode shows

  • Current step: the step the group is working on now.
  • Ask first: questions to ask before the group settles on a card.
  • Watch for: common mistakes or shortcuts at that step.
  • Move on when: the signal that the group is ready for the next step.

How to use it

  1. Read the scenario out loud.
  2. Let everyone choose quietly.
  3. Ask the current-step questions.
  4. Let people explain different choices.
  5. Reveal app coaching after discussion.
  6. Use the final summary to form one shared prayer response.

Main app controls

Consult Discernment

Use this when you are unsure, when the situation feels layered, or when you may be moving too fast.

Reveal coaching

In Group and Leader modes, scenario coaching stays hidden until you choose to reveal it.

Copy prayer summary

Copies the generated prayer summary so it can be saved, edited, shared carefully, or pasted somewhere else.

Download summary

Saves a plain text summary of the prayer flow.

Troubleshooting

I do not see coaching.

Check your app mode. In Group and Leader modes, coaching stays hidden until you tap Reveal coaching.

The prayer flow is locked.

Select one Authority card, one Identity card, and one primary Situation card. The prayer flow opens after those choices are made.

I chose the wrong card.

Open that section and choose a different card. You can also use Reset to start over.

I am not sure if this is warfare.

Use Discernment first. Warfare should not be chosen just because a situation feels intense.

The app opened in the wrong mode.

Open the app menu and choose the mode you want. The app remembers the mode until you change it.

The weekly scenario does not say Workbook or Leader’s Guide.

Open the scenario from the weekly training page. Scenario-library links still work, but they do not carry weekly curriculum context.
