Had another beautiful evening of prayer with Advent Hope friends - Praising God and interceding! What a beautiful thing fellowship with prayer can be.
We are just realizing more and more, time is short, this isn't the time to be goofing off or playing around. Jesus is coming soon...and He's coming for a people that are serious about Him! Serious about getting in His Word and serious about staying on their knees in prayer!!
It seems that people shy away from long periods of prayer together though, because they don't really understand what united prayer is about. They are afraid they'll get stuck praying for all the people around the world that they don't know about, or that they'll be reciting some prayer that doesn't have any pertinence to their lives...maybe they are afraid they'll get bored and fall asleep...
But true united prayer is none of the above...it's personal, it's practical, and it's about seeing God work in the daily issues of our life and the lives of those we love! It's a coming together to pour out our hearts to God...about daily specific request, and to draw together in unity of the faith, humbling our hearts to intercede and seek His presence. And when you pray in such a manner...God hears...and He answers!!
If you couldn't be part of this evening of prayer, please plan your own, or join us in the future! Let's get a "Prayer circle" going that spans our community, and the globe! Let's get ready for Jesus to come!!*
*To be inspired like you've never been before, listen to Pastor Jay Gallimore as he shares about "Faith and Prayer." As soon as you hear this incredible message, you'll be falling on your knees begging for God to make you a man or woman of prayer!
