Restoring the Moravian Fire

Restoring the Moravian FireBy James Goll www.encountersnetwork.com


 "Restoring the Moravian Fire: The Power of Persistent Prayer">> Read More ... >>>

I want to share some of my thoughts as I have had a lot of time alone over these last few weeks due to my recovery time needed from the intense cancer treatment. I have had time to think, ponder, reflect, pray, rest—oh yes, rest. I have had time to evaluate once again what I want to do with my life and how I can make the greatest impact on this generation.

Visioen ontvang: Jesus se Koms is NADER as wat mens dink.

Jesus se Koms is NADER as wat mens dinkDepallier (my man) het laas nag, in die vroeë oggendure, 'n ervaring gehad wat gedeel moet word.  Ek het wakker geword met hom wat uitroep: "Die Here kom ons haal" en weer "Die Here kom ons haal".  Ek wou hom wakker skud omdat ek gedink het hy het dalk 'n slegte droom.  Maar dit was verseker nie 'n slegte droom nie.  Hy was emosioneel só swaar belaai met hartseer dat hy nie eintlik kon praat nie.  Hy wou hê ons moes dadelik ons seun (14) gaan wakker maak en seker maak dat hy Jesus hardop bely en aanvaar met sy mond, wat ons toe gedoen het.

Daarna het hy begin vertel (of probeer) dat hy Jesus se heerlikheid gesien het en daarin
was.  >> Read More ... >>>

Foundational Prayer Before Crisis or Blessing

Foundations of Prayer before a crisis or Blessing!Living by the Spirit of the Lord is something we all pursue in our every day life. How we do this, can be a challenge for sure. Jesus lived a life of prayer, and when He needed dedicated prayer time, He would even send crowds and most likely potential resources away, so that He could be with the Father. As a result, He would not move, speak, or do anything that the Father did not ask Him to do.

As I think of prayer and how often we come to the Father during a crisis, I am thankful that our Loving Father responds to hearing our cry. I am also reminded that prayer is really for us to connect with Him, His nature, and a conduit for His peace and joy to flow through us. >> Read More ... >>>

Revelatory Prayer

The apostle Paul prayed more than he preached. I conclude this from his own confession that he "ceased not" to make mention of the Ephesians in his prayers. This is the same man who exhorted us to pray without ceasing, 1Thes 2:13, 5:17, 2Tim 1:3 with Eph. 6:18. He wouldn't ask what he didn't do himself.

Why so much prayer when he had so much revelation? He was an excellent teacher despite what some thought. No one had his revelations. They form the cornerstones of New Testament doctrine. One would think that the teachings themselves would have such weight of influence that they would automatically accomplish what they revealed. They didn't and they couldn't and he knew it. He knew that something more must be added to what he taught in order to drive in the truth.

This something more was prayer and specific prayer. Not just any prayer would do, but prayer aimed at penetrating the inward man to reveal something that would ultimately take over the believer. He knew that what one beholds is what one is conformed to or better, transformed into. >> Read More ... >>>

24-7 PRAYER CHANGES VIOLENT TOWNSHIPS IN SOUTH AFRICA

Crime drop when we Pray- testimonySource: Joel News Service


In the Summer of 2004, with the help of some sponsors, evangelist Peter Sekhonyane put up a 300-seater tent to facilitate a 24-hour prayer watch in one of the 20 extensions and outer villages of Orange Farm. For three weeks he intensively trained Christians of all churches on prayer and the principles of 24-hour prayer. After three weeks, he decided to move the tent to the next extension, to repeat the process there. In October 2004 seven of these 24/7 prayer watches were up and running at an average of 15 hours per day. Then they combined efforts to launch a week of real 24-hour prayer.

At the end of the week of combined prayer Peter went to the police service station to ask how it went crime-wise during that week. According to their statistics something strange happened: in seven of the 20 extensions there was nearly no crime - exactly the seven in which 24-7 prayer was going on!>> Read More ... >>>

Something special then started to happen. People from townships from across the country started to ask for help.

Vasbyt vir begin 2009 met die versekering dat deubrake kom

God is verseker besig met skuiwe op SY groot wereldskaakbord.  Met die rustiger feesgety, vir sommiges, is daar ook meer tyd om te peins oor wat in die wereld en ons land aan die gebeur is. Dis nie aldag dat engele helder oordag verskyn, soos die twee getuienisse hieronder vertel nie.
Vir 2009 is dit veral belangrik om die "tekens van die tye" te verstaan en te interpreteer, veral in die lig van wat God deur sommige van Sy profete openbaar.

Die slotsom waartoe ek gekom het met die lees daarvan, is dat 2009  nie  vir bangbroeke of vir skuld maak, is nie. God is besig met dinge van kosmiese omvang en ons kan nie bekostig om sonder genoeg Heilige-Gees-Olie in ons lampe gevang te word, by die onverwagse koms van ons Verlosser nie.

The Prophethood of the Believer

Empty seat with God?Seldom have I met a believer that has not struggled maintaining a consistent, disciplined prayer life. I know this has been a challenge in my own spiritual journey. I have found it easier to study the Bible, meditate, worship, tithe, and exercise all the other disciplines of the Christian life (with the possible exception of fasting), than it has been to pray.

 

How can we overcome this lack of prayerfulness? Why do we have this “mass discipline problem” when it comes to prayer? Do we not love God and want to spend time in His presence? Why then is our prayer life so far from what we know it should be?

  >> Read More ... >>>

Is the issue lack of discipline? Certainly, a consistent prayer life takes discipline; there is no way around that fact. But, the lack of discipline is rooted in a lack of vision. True vision is what motivates us to be disciplined. Proverbs 29:18 says, “Where there is no vision the people are unrestrained”.

Invasion of the Glory!

Invasion fo Gods GLORYWhat has been on my heart is the glory of the Lord, that we could have more of His presence and more of Him in our midst. 2 Corinthians 4 tells us that we are earthenware vessels but the treasure, the glory inside of us--is the Lord!

Everyone is running for the gold! Nations prepare for the Olympics and they don't want the silver or the bronze, they want the gold. I feel that the individual cry of our heart is: "Oh Lord, we want the gold!" We want His glory, to know Him better.

It’s amazing, but it’s in the midst of spiritual warfare that I feel most alive and excited for God,


Hello friends and partners ,

I realize that it has been a while since I’ve sent out my last e-mail, but my delay has mainly been due to the fact that 2007 has, thus far, not been a very kind year. That said, it has definitely been a walk in the park compared to 2006.
 
As always the Lord has been good and each day I reflect on the fact that I never want to be without Him. These past two weeks have been “spiritually intense” for me as I’ve been feeling something tense happening in the spirit world. Admittedly I went through a few weeks of spiritual slumber until one day I felt God tap me on the shoulder and say, “Oi, it’s time to wake up and pray now. You’re needed.” It’s amazing, but it’s in the midst of spiritual warfare that I feel most alive and excited for God, even when the warfare manifests itself in the worldly realm to be a bad situation for me. Even though I may not like the situation, I know that it will pass because I have God on my side and it is through the situation that I will grow stronger in Him. What I have learnt, however, is that when the warfare doesn’t let up for a considerable period of time that is when we tend to get worn down to almost the point of defeat due to spiritual exhaustion. Look at what happened to Elijah: he witnessed God sending down fire from heaven and then had 400 priests of Baal killed. Thereafter he ran and hid out of fear from Queen Jezebel. In his tired and exhausted state, suffering from severe spiritual weariness and tension, he pleaded with God to end his life (haven’t we all been there before). Even when we’ve reached the point where we may have felt we’ve let go, God is still holding on to us.>> Read More ... >>>

Ten Points that Contrast the Corporate & Church Models

by Joseph Mattera www.josephgmattera.com


Ten Points that Contrast the Corporate Model from the Church Model

Many pastors are reading books on leadership and marketing written by corporate leaders or folks speaking from an American corporate ethos. Oftentimes the biblical ethos in regards to the local church model is missed. The following 10 points show the difference between the two models:

1. The corporate model views others of their business ilk as their competition; the church model should be one of identifying ways to network and partner with churches in the community.>> Read More ... >>>

2. The corporate model hires outsiders for the best possible laborers; the church should primarily grow their workers from within.

Pro- Active Prayer - case study - Lesotho mission trip

Two weeks before we went Lesotho for a mission outreach, we came together to pray for the weekend. It was adults and children who were going on the trip. We all simply prayed for the weekend to be a success for the Lord and asked that He address all problems beforehand.

 Well, we went on the trip and from the moment we went nothing but nothing went wrong. The cars went well, nobody got injured or sick, nothing went wrong the whole weekend. Truly God’s grace was with us. It was a proof that God has given us the right strategy = pro- active prayer. Pray beforehand and be the enemy one ahead. Pray and be stand still see God bring victory and salvation.>> Read More ... >>>

Pro-active prayer - Case Study of application

One day myself and my two daughters went to the park.

As we got there, there were three boys in the park.

Immediately I felt the presence of an evil spirit.

Before, I would deal with the person instead of the evil spirit.

This day the Holy Spirit said to me to address and rebuke the evil spirit, which I did. Then thereafter nothing materialised and all was OK and peaceful.>> Read More ... >>>
