Misty Edwards is an active leader at the International House Of Prayer (IHOP) in Kansas City, Missouri, a ministry launched by Mike Bickle, former pastor of Metro Christian Fellowship.
Misty's musical work stands alone as excellent worship music in and of itself, but much can be gleaned from understanding the dynamics of the context in which the songs are formed: 24/7 prayer, worship, and fasting. IHOP-KC has held live worship non-stop, without closing the doors, since September 19th, 1999.
Much of Misty's music springs spontaneously from two-hour prayer and worship sessions called 'Worship with the Word' or intercession sets. Intercession sets typically consist of short fifteen-minute segments of contemporary worship music, followed by someone praying at a special microphone set up at the front of the room. The singers will begin to sing-prophesy along with the prayers, and the music will build and release in unison with the prayers offered.
According to Mike Bickle, she was spending so much time in the prayer room that he finally got concerned about it and urged her to get out and "go see a movie or something." Read more on Last.fm.
