Prayer


Prayer
What as happen to the corporate prayer life of the Church today? Where are the pray warriors? If we want to see God impact our society our nation, we need to be praying together in unison in the vision God as given us, corporately.
Churches should be built on prayer, if we want to see great things happen we need to be doing this, there are always excuses, “come on Folks” this is the most important thing, we can all pray individually , but we need to be praying daily corporately in one accord, this is when we see Great Things happen.
When we are living in Revival prayer is easy, I find myself praying some times for hours, but trying to get other to pray with you daily is really hard work.
People want God to do great things but can’t be bothered to put the effort in.
People are willing to come to the Church meeting on a Sunday, band practices, and even house groups so why no prayer meetings?
I want to see God impact the nation I live in; I want to see people with revive hearts praying together in unison in the Spirit in one accord.
This is when we will see change, this is when God will impact the very fabric of our society.

What is True Revival

         
Revival is a word that is used so loosely today, you need to be truly living in Revival to really understand the true meaning of the word.
There is being Baptist in the Spirit, then there’s living in revival two different states.
What is living in Revival, it is having an amazing LOVE for God and for those around you
A strong Faith – Faith working through Love
Walking in holiness and a desires to see those around you saved
A real desire for prayer,  praying from deep within yourself.
Worshipping God where every part of you cry’s out to God in adoration, in praise and in worship, to give you an example, the other night I started to praise God and I felt such a presence of God it seem like I had been worshiping for10 minutes but I soon came to realize it was Morning no I didn’t fall asleep I was lost in God in worship, it is the most wonderful experience you can have, being in the very presence of God.
A strong desire to serve the purpose of God, whatever that might entail,
When we are in Revival we are dead to self and alive in HIM, we are in God, we are no longer living our lives but we are living God’s life through us. Revival isn’t an out pouring of the Holy Spirit, but a state of Holy living, living in the very presence of God.
