The Church of Jesus Christ has been marching on for 2000 years. Today, we are at a critical juncture where revival is needed more than ever. It’s not about having better planning or strategies but aligning our hearts to God through a life of Worship and Prayer. It’s not about having more of this or that but more of God in our lives.

In our eternal dwelling (Revelation 4:9), we shall see all “the living creatures give glory and honour and thanks to Him who is seated on the throne, who lives forever and ever”. That is why the psalmist cried out earnestly to the Sovereign Lord: “Let my prayer be counted as incense before You, and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice!” (Psalm 141:2)

What then are the vital truths underpinning the worship and prayer that is acceptable to God? How can our daily discipleship bring us deeper into God’s abounding grace, abundant mercy and unchanging love?

At IDMC Conference 2026, with the theme “LET INCENSE ARISE”, you’ll join Rev Edmund Chan, Rev Tan Kay Kiong and Rev Tony Yeo from Covenant EFC, and guest speakers Ps Dr Chew Weng Chee and Ps Dr Lew Lee Choo from SIBKL and Leadership Mentor Ps Benny Ho from Faith Community Church.

Through dynamic plenary sessions and interactive workshops, gain powerful principles and transformative practices of worship and prayer in these interconnected arenas: Lives Rekindled, ⁠Families Reclaimed, Church Reimagined, Cities Renewed, World Revitalised!

May every delegate be transformed to have a deeper daily encounter with Jesus. Come, consecrate our lives, families, churches, cities and the world for God’s glory.

“LET INCENSE ARISE”! See you at IDMC Conference 2026.
