To those with a heart for prayer & the nations:
The Lord has been prompting the church to initiate designated nights of prayer, specifically on a global scale. It could accurately be titled, "Harvest & Laborers", where we will lift up the lost and the many nations in despair as well as the body of believers across the world ministering to those lost, and that the Lord would raise up more laborers to be sent out into His harvest. That includes seeking the Lord where He may want us to go as a people; as a church.
The focus is also to be in prayer for our nation and to be in prayer, specifically, for our church; our leadership and for the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. We desire to see a revival in the bride of Christ... It begins with an individual revival of the heart of every believer to be led into absolute surrender. May we lead this next generation by example.
"Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus." - Acts 4:13
Let's be like Peter and John and be the fragrance of Christ to the church and the lost around us. A work that can only be accomplished by being in the presence of Jesus, through prayer and the filling of His Holy Spirit. This night of prayer will be held the 1st & 3rd Tuesday of every month where there will be an open invitation to anyone who shares this burden.
Every meeting, we will be hearing different individuals share about specific countries/people groups that the Lord has placed on their hearts and we will place specific emphasis on that country/people group on that evening, but not limited to. He has given us His Spirit to lead us. Our heart is to see the Lord work radically through prayer; in the lost and in the church here, and abroad, and to see many of this next generation be inspired and raised up, responding to the Lord's call; joining in His heart for the lost and for prayer.
