Sent out an email this evening concerning prayer for the Gospel Invasion this saturday. I did this because I realised a couple of days ago that God can only work through our prayers. Look at all the events which have had an impact. Seeker Service, Youth Camps, SonicFest... They all had one thing in common. People who prayed for things to happen. And I'm convinced that this is required.
Pray against any distractions from the evil one and that their minds will be clear when we share with them.
That their eyes will be unveiled so that they will see what Christ has done for them.
2. Pray that XS will catch the passion of God’s heart. That we’ll want to fulfil the desire of God which is to see all men come to a saving knowledge of Christ. (See 1 Timothy 2:4.)
3. Pray for boldness for ourselves. That we’ll go forth having the confidence that He will give us the words to say just like Paul prayed for in Ephesians 6:18-20
4. Pray against the spirit of fear that may come upon some of us. Praise God that fear has no place in the body of Christ as promised in Romans 8:15.
Dear Dear God... Is it supposed to be this torturous? Everytime I try to push it away, it comes back twice as strong. Lord, it cannot be like this because it doesn't fit your plan. All I know is that it feels so right. But then again, emotions can screw up decision making.
3 things I pray for...
A Spiritual awakening. That the veil of worldly blindness be removed from her.
A hunger for your Word to be stirred up in her.
A desire for your will to be carried out in her life.
Whoever she is, Lord. This is what I ask for. Even though every part of my being cries out for action, I'll stay silent and quiet and I'll wait for my reward. Being in this situation is testimony to Your goodness. Even when I thought it would be impossible, You have healed my heart and lifted me up. In fact I praise You Lord because I know You are El Shaddai! The Almighty One. You are on top of my situation and you see the entire flow of events. And I know it is good! Because You have prepared a path for me in which You give me the best!
I will laugh in the face of adversity. I will laugh in the face of depression because I know that these are just lies. I know that Satan is just trying to prevent me from reaching my full potential. Lord, I have my victory in You! You have won the battle and the war. Hallelujah! I choose to cling to You all the more tightly. And I'll choose to rejoice as well because You are there for me! Everyday I will rejoice because I have my Jesus. And my Jesus is more than enough for me!!!
