Upper Room Prayer

It was a beautiful morning! The clouds rolled in and covered everything! We rejoiced in the beautiful creation of the Lord and thought about what it was like as God lead his people by a cloud by day and pillar of fire by night. Our focus in prayer was on three main topics. First, the tearing down of the hostility set up between Native American peoples and the church. Within this we asked that the Holy Spirit would quicken the church to go and tell of the unfailing and restoring love of Christ we anticipate the day when revival springs forth and salvation comes amongst the Native American tribes and Nations. Second, we lifted up the New life congregation and requested that we would be a lovesick bride totally dependent and strengthened by our bridegroom. We prayed for the strengthening of Brady and Holy Spirit insight and equipping to loving and serving the Haggard family. Last, we rejoiced in lifting up our voices on behalf of the Jewish people and asked that our great Father would make His beautiful son known to their hearts and that He would restore peace in the land. We are thankful to have such a great high priest who is the bridge between us and the father and makes known to our hearts the mysteries of God through the Holy Spirit.
Jesus is Good

Saturday Morning Prayer, 1-17-09

We love that no matter where you are and no matter what time it is, God is always faithful and ever-present. This morning, we started by praying for hungry hearts for the Furnace and America. Then, we moved into praying for Israel and China. A large majority of the prayers seemed to focus on widows, orphans, the advancing of the gospel, and for prayer movements to arise in both of these nations. I'd like to leave you all with a little quote. "We came. We sought. We conquered." Be encouraged that God loves for us to come before His throne, seek His face, and 'walk away' knowing that we have the God that purchased all victory living inside us.

Shalom! :)
