A Praying Nation
It is time to pray and fast for national revival for God’s presence to come and change the present atmosphere. We find ourselves as a nation in a similar crisis as in 1st Samuel. Eli did not pray and fast or refrain his sons from defilement. The Lord raises up Samuel, Samuel calls a fast, and Israel gets attacked by the Philistines (sometimes you still come under attack when you fast, it agitates the enemy!) Then just after another fast (1st Sam. 7:6) Israel demands a king and chooses one…we as a nation are in this same place…depending on who is elected we could open a wrong door morally and spiritually that we might not ever recover from. In lieu of this …Are you sensing the call that the Lord is putting out…. a call for intercessory prayer? Are you looking to get more involved on a prayer team in the evening? Do you want to pray with others that are like minded and pray intentional prayers for the same govermental purposes? Are you feeling the burden to intercede for the upcoming presidential elections? If you answered yes to any of the preceding questions ….we have the intercessory prayer team for you!!!! Below is a blog from Laura Kaino and Kathy Swapp who will be co-leading this team.
Every ad and news brief about the presidential candidates should serve as a reminder to Christians of our need to pray over the upcoming election. Many of the prophets are saying that this year the saints will decide where we are headed as a nation if we will humble ourselves and pray. As the praying church goes, so goes the nation! An intercessory prayer team will begin meeting regularly every 2nd and 4th Tuesday evening @ Skyway Church from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. in Modular Building “G” room #402 starting February 12th. Pray about joining us in this prayer adventure. Have questions?…need more info? Call the church office or email Jeanie Newton at jnewton@skywaychurch.com
