The Role of Prayer in Spiritual AwakeningThe Following is an Excerpt From the Book "Prayer Storm"Written by James W. GollWithout prayer, revival will not come. But, what does this kind of prayer look like? In 1976, an Oxford-educated church historian named J. Edwin Orr gave a talk entitled “The Role of Prayer in Spiritual Awakening” at the National Prayer Congress in Dallas. A videotape of his

I had a dream last night that is making me think this is a direction for prayer. In the dream, I was addressing a dearly loved pastor of a church I had been part of. She was in pain but still functioning- feeling betrayed because I/we left. I was telling her how much I loved her and being there and had never left in my heart but I couldn't stay if she kept things so isolated and independent. I

Hi folks, I ran across this post (below) I put out on Facebook in March and I thought perhaps I should share it here for the sake of prayer for the region. Below, I mention a dream I had regarding Hosea 5. I am revisiting it because I realized that a trusted friend pointed out verse 4 as a key verse and of late I'm beginning to get some understanding: 4 Their deeds will not allow them To return

Not Judgmental, But Prayer-mental Mercy, Not WrathThe church is created not to fulfill God's wrath, but to complete His mercy. Remember, we are called to be a "house of prayer for all…nations." Consider passionately this phrase: "prayer for." Jesus taught His disciples to "pray for" those who would persecute or mistreat them (Matt.5 44). When Job "prayed for" his friends, God fully restored him

We have been steady in "tilling the soil" in prayer for Long Island/NYC for four years now. Our commission is an inter-denominational mission base that worships God and prays for Long Island/NYC 24-7-365. This is not simply a good idea. It is God's idea. It is prayer that ushers in revival for the church and paves the way for the region to shift from the "world system" into the Kingdom. In

I rewrote the last blog and expanded my memories of the prayer set and the lessons taught. It seemed the Holy Spirit was bringing to mind Matthew 11.

We started the prayer set on Friday with Matthew 5 and the Sermon on the Mount. For unknown reasons, I followed by singing/contemplating Isaiah 40 beginning in verse 21-22 with this little chorus: "Do You not know, have you not heard... It's God Who sits above the circle of the earth." Little did I know that there is a clear path between the King's power and perspective and living in the King's

They were beautiful from a distance but when I looked closer they each had two heads (one neck was shorter on each) and they were molting on their face so they looked more like vultures.

Yesterday, in the House of Prayer, we were praying for local and global missionaries. I believed it was the right direction but I could not lift my eyes off of Long Island/NYC and her needs. We prayed for the Church to see herself as a missionary to the region. Suddenly, The Lord dropped an idea in our hearts and it dominated our thoughts in prayer. The idea? Love your neighbor.

Why do we Pray... Truman Faulkner I love how kids are unafraid to ask the simplest questions of life that adults are sometimes too proud or too “smart” to ask. In the CEC (Children’s Equipping Center), as I was teaching a class on the Apostolic prayers in the New Testament, a seven-year-old boy named Spencer raised his hand and asked the question, “Uh, why do we pray?” I sought to answer that

If a teacher fascinates with his doctrine, his teaching never came from God. The teacher sent from God is the one who clears the way to Jesus and keeps it clear; souls forget altogether about him because the vision of Jesus is the only abiding result. When people are attracted to Jesus Christ through you, see always that you stay on God all the time, and their hearts and affections will never

When we first received the invitation to plant a House of Prayer, we received lots of "words" and references to Noah that we had little to no understanding of. I would say that's still the case. However, for what it's worth, it's one the reasons that Patti felt so strongly that we give IHOP-LI the secondary name of "The Ark House of Prayer" - that and because we believed it should be an Ark of

THE SCAPEGOAT Question of the Day: Whom do I scapegoat? On the Day of Atonement (see Leviticus 16:21-22) a goat was brought into the sanctuary. The high priest would lay his hands on the goat and all the sins and failures of the people from the last year were ceremonially laid on the goat, and the goat was sent out into the desert to die.

The purpose of power is witness, but the purpose of holiness is holiness. The purpose of spirituality is personal - to be like God and so fulfill the ultimate purpose of God, His supreme and original reason for making man, as stated right from the beginning: "Let us make man in our image" (Gen. 1:26).

Hope it strengthens you. love, tCraig Kinsley: "The Bait"by Craig Kinsley Jun 5, 2009Recently, I awoke from a dream which I knew had serious meaning both for myself and, in a larger sense, the Body of Christ.

My King was born King.The Bible says He's a Seven Way King.He's the King of the Jews - that's a racial King.He's the King of Israel - that's a National King.He's the King of righteousness.He's the King of the ages.He's the King of Heaven.He's the King of glory.He's the King of kings and He is the Lord of lords.Now that's my King.Well I wonder if you know Him. Do you know Him? Don't try to mislead

Have we slipped into the habit of insisting that God do what we ask or want or need him to do, treating him as an idol designed for our satisfaction? Does God serve us or do we serve God? Do we require a God that we can fully understand and control or are we willing to be obedient to what we do not understand and could never control? Is God a mystery of goodness who we embrace and trust, or is

On another "heart" note: Been thinking for a few days about Isaiah 56 . In particular, the statement about the eunuchs and the foreigner. He says that if they keep/possess/value His sabbaths and hold dear His commitment and His covenant of love, to those He will give a better name than sons and daughters. It's a name BETTER than sons and daughters. Imagine that. 4For thus says the LORD,

Hola all! This article left me in an odd peace and made me laugh a bit too. I don't have ANY of this down - so don't hear it from a condescending angle at all. Nor am I targeting you if you got this directly. I just thought it was handy. Bottom line is we're all thieves on the journey to gazing at Jesus on the cross (next to us and for us).

Like many of you, we have been dedicated to praying through the elections and I've been listening to all sorts of interesting occurrences that caused me to stop and think. One issue was that at the last minute, some of my family and friends were compelled to vote differently than they had been inclined and they had no idea why. Second, that the church was so sharply divided over the candidates

What is it with tears? Why do we find it uncomfortable to cry in front of others? It’s strange that when we have a tearful moment we often say, “I’m sorry”, as if somehow we have done something wrong. Benjamin Disraeli said, “Never apologize for showing feeling. When you do so, you apologize for the truth.” Perhaps when we cry we reveal something deeper within ourselves. Maybe we reveal the

I just read this kickin' article by Jeff Tyler (Nightwatch ministries) and maybe I thought it was kickin' because it embraces the current move of God with a real kiss while offering encouragement to go hard after wisdom, depth and endurance.

Some of you may have heard me talking about following the Reese's Pieces trail that God lays out for us and how much fun it is to walk out the adventure with Him. This article does an excellent job at explaining it and encouraging us to engage in it.

I thought I'd pass on what is a well thought out, balanced challenge to the current state of the church and should initiate thought provoking questions.Last week I had a dream that a variety of people were ministering in the House of Prayer and I was loving that it reflected the resources of many churches and really was being fueled by cooperation.

Jamie gave me this poem describing the reason we are building the House of Prayer and the Burn. Thought I'd pass it on.An old man, going a lone highway,Came, at the evening, cold and gray,To a chasm, vast, and deep, and wide,Through which was flowing a sullen tide.The old man crossed in the twilight dim;The sullen stream had no fears for him;But he turned, when safe on the other side,And built a

I had a dream recently that I was in a grove in Middle Earth talking to a King/Wise Man. Wise and key people were gathering around him and He instructed us to call out for wisdom throughout the land and more people began to gather (they were characters from The Lord of the Rings) and I saw that the 'Fellowship" was being reconvened and began to rehearse in my mind other characters in the story/

Written in June: It's time gang. This is not about building my vision, so please chuck that thought. If you want to know the truth, my vision had to be put to the side.

Hey folks, thanks for the encouragement regarding the "Peace" article. It's actually an addendum to the "David Knowing" blurb. I want to re-emphasize the point any way I can because I'm so sure - so impressed with the urgency/importance of being "Confident in Love" - i.e., God's. It's not just a good idea.

I had a dream the other day that ended with a song being sung to me. The only line that I'm sure I remember and got right was "Is it time for standing in the David knowing?" The implied answer was "yes". Although I'm sure this makes no sense to you, I understood the question. David was a student of God.

Catherine Brown: Cross-Pollination VisionTHE LORD HOLDS THE WORLD IN HIS HANDSDuring a time of prayer, I had a vision in which I saw the Lord Jesus holding a small globe in His hands. As the Lord held the world in His hands, the central axis of the earth opened up, forming two equal halves, and swarms of bees emerged from the centre. Fascinated by what I had just witnessed, I continued to watch

The Gatekeeper AnointingBilly HumphreyNovember 2nd, 2003In the year 2000, my wife and I were in our 9th year of ministry as youth pastors at our local church in Norcross, Ga. During this season we decided to rename and revamp our youth ministry. The previous name was tired and no longer reflected the values and vision of the ministry. The driving force of our ministry was an intense yearning to

BY FAITH WALLS FALL DOWNBy Dr. Michael A. Halleen"By faith the walls of Jericho fell, after the people had marched around them for seven days." (Hebrews 11:30)Prince Henry the Navigator of Portugal (1394-1460) never captained a ship or sailed on a voyage of exploration. He stayed home and read accounts of others who had. He thought about what they said and let his mind march around new theories

Hi gang - you know I have an immature/not quite ripe thought I want to pass your way regarding the prayer & fasting that will precede the Call in Nashville. Ordinarily I’d let it ripen, but I’m feeling a little reckless and immature today – so anyway, here goes . . .I had a dream the other day about a group of young people who were being separated into two teams. Neither group was good or bad.

I spoke from Psalm 50 about the Lord "shining forth" from Zion, perfect in beauty. The words there refer to God's self-disclosure, His unveiling of His own beauty and character. We then went to Hebrews 4:16 and spoke about the Bride's response of coming "boldly" into His presence because of what Jesus has done. The boldness in that passage is the same concept of self-disclosure, coming to the

I. INTERCESSIONa. Night and day prayer is a literal reality taught in scripture and it is a prerequisite for full scale revival. This is based upon the worship patterns of the Tabernacle of David, Jewish worship under Ezra and Nehemiah, worship around the throne of God (Rev 4), the Parable of the Persistent Widow (Lk 18), and the Lord's Prayer (Mt 6). b. We value solitude and quiet

Over the years, many people—Christian and non—have stumbled over God’s anger and wrath. His judgments have been both misunderstood and maligned. What so many have failed to comprehend is the fact that the Lord has always burned with pure passion for the undivided love and devotion of His people. As the Hero and Husband in the love story called the Bible, the Lord has always been jealous for the

I had a dream a few weeks ago that left a deep impression on me regarding a move of God in/on the Church. In short, "Love" invaded the Church. In the dream, I was dressed in white (as was everyone else) and lying down on the left, front pew of an old wooden church, talking with my sister. We were doing something that represented old, worldly comforts. I was a little bored. I looked around and

A Prayer of Barrenness My heart aches. I love Him, yes, but faintly. I desire Him, yes, but weakly. I want Him, true, but waveringly. Even the pain that lies within I recognize to be such faint pain, A mere discomfort next to the heart-wrenching anguish That grips true lovers My knowledge is nothing. My wisdom, infancy. I see nothing as it truly is. Eternity what is light. This life of earth

Becoming a Person of "One Thing" by Mike Bickle Preoccupied with Intimacy For most of us, life presents dozens of options for career and lifestyle, passions and hobbies. In our pursuit of pleasure and meaning we run here and there, trying one job or recreational activity after another, collecting experiences but never devoting ourselves to one direction. Christians do this in their spiritual

Hans Urs von Balthasar in his book, Prayer,describes this joy. "The contemplative's gaze continually returns with great attention to the humanity of Jesus. It is the inexhaustible treasure entrusted to us by the heavenly Father. In a true sense He has 'despoiled himself' (Jn. 3:16) of Him to whom He is always pointing: ipsum audite (Mt. 17:5).

The following is the poem "Gone": Though dawn is distant, I wake again, to sit in Your Presence, to wonder at you. You've ruined me, You know, for anything else. Longing for one vocation fills my soul: To consider You, to feel You, to worship You, To find words (O, vain and futile task!) that capture what's burning in my heart. Your gaze presses in upon me - warm, yet weighty, on the edge

"The Weeping Room - Pathway to Strategy" By Jennifer Miller One day as I was in prayer the Lord began to open up my eyes to a spiritual encounter. I saw myself being taken up to heaven. Before me I saw a huge house with many rooms. I knew instantly that this was the 'Father's House'. I could feel the love of the father drawing me in, so I began to run as fast as I could to enter the house. As I
