Is something missing.

Am I missing something here?  All these weeks of 24/7 prayer and no blog entries.  Is there nothing happening thru all this that is worthy of sharing?  Are we so wrapped up in conferences and big shows that we are not seeing the little things that God does everyday, the lives He changes, the restoration He provides, the reconciliation that is our ministry here on earth accomplished?  How can that be?

The awesome privilege

God has given us the awesom privilege of prayer.  Where else is there constant 24/7 contact with the Master of it all.  24/7 prayer at the HOP was totally out of sight.  It has been a few weeks and the brain has tried to sort thru it all, but all that bounces back is GOD BE GLORIFIED.  If you have not participated somewhere somehow, you have missed so much.  Think of that warehouse in heaven filled with all we have not asked for.

 Praise Him.

The 24/7 challenge

For anyone contemplating the 24/7 challenge for a week there is a heavy burden of "Can we fill the slots?"  First of all, it isn't you filling the slots it is the promting of the Holy Spirit fo God in the hearts of people that fills the slots.  Secondly, Your task then becomes one of making the opportunity known.  Advertise.  One of the things that has worked best for me is to take the time slots in hand and go and ask folks up close and personal.  Give it a try.  The blessings are out of this world.

Prayer in the Church

Somehow prayer has become a ritual in the churches I see.  We say one at the beginning and one at the end (maybe).  We cry for revival, but never bring it up to our Lord in fervent prayer as the Church.  If there is to be revival there must first be a revival of prayer.
