Because his victories are (your) the church’s victories.  “When Moses held up his hand (in prayer), Israel prevailed; and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed” (Ex. 17:11). Because God’s people are captive to godless forces.  Daniel (9:1-23) interceded.  “We have sinned and done wrong, and acted wickedly, and rebelled, and turned aside from your commandments” (9:5). Because God’s people don’t know what to do. “Unto us confusion of faces” (v. 7, KJV). Because the enemy plots to discourage and destroy church leaders,  “For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and His ears are open [...]

Let the Fire Burn

We Are Called to Be Carriers of the Fire As many of you know, October 31st was and is a key day in Church History. It was the Day when Martin Luther nailed his 95 Thesis on the Wittenberg door and launched the Great Reformation. It was also the day when the Spirit fell from on high in the historic move of God with young Evan Roberts. In some liturgical denominations and churches, October 31st is known as All Saints Days.

Restoring the Watch of the Lord

I had brought 30 people with me to that remote area for a prayer retreat at a country lodge. We were praying around the clock in prayer teams for “hour watches” or prayer periods, modeled after military sentry patterns. Our focus was not on fellowship or even a [...]

Praying… In the Gift of Tounges

While there can be many expressions of Spirit-directed praying, praying with the gift of tongues is one of the foremost ways. The following are some key points concerning this type of prophetic intercession. Praying in the Spirit is your spirit communicating directly with God. It is primarily for use in your devotional prayer life for intercession, praise, and worship. 1 Cor. 14:28b - ...let him speak to himself and to God. 1 Cor. 14:2 - For one who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men, but to God; for no one understands, but in his spirit he [...]

Day 29 – Justice, Righteousness, and Compassion

By |2017-10-17T13:13:52-05:00October 5th, 2009|Recent Articles|0 Comments

from the book Empowered Woman by Michal Ann Goll He who oppresses the poor reproaches, mocks, and insults his Maker, but he who is kind and merciful to the needy honors Him (Proverbs 14:31). Reflection God wants governments to rule with justice, righteousness, and compassion, but we all know that this is not always the case. The psalmist writes, “God stands in the assembly [of the representatives] of God; in the midst of the magistrates or judges He gives judgment…. How long will you [magistrates or judges] judge unjustly and show partiality to the wicked? …Do justice to the [...]
