Hi everyone
Good morning
This is from last nights summer prayer night at church.
Our prayers are like a shawl over our heads. We are Enveloped by the love and presence of God. Reminding us he is a father, a parent and we are loved by him. We are coming under his wings, a safe hidden place under the arms of a good father. His love for us is like taking shelter under the wings of a bird comforting, warm, nurturing , loving and safe. Blessings ♥️
We pray Lord that as Your kingdom advances in Worthing tomorrow, that as Your community of people filled and empowered by Your Holy Spirit start to Praise and start to take ground, that the darkness will give way to Light and that the Holy Spirit at work in us will start to transform the atmosphere…
We will boast in our weaknesses Lord, so that the Power of Christ may rest upon us, for when we are weak, then we are strong 🔥🙌 Hallelujah!!
As I was praying for healing and wholeness across the church I remembered Elisha telling Naaman to go and dip in the Jordan River…. And of Jesus saying to the lepers go and show yourself to the priest… or of Him saying get up take up your bed and walk…
There was a step to take on the road to healing!
The Holy Spirit wants to show us God’s step to healing of body and soul.
As we move in trust, God meets with our need for wholeness and the transformation begins. 🙌🏻
Dave loves his garden and always wants it to grow and flourish and so there's a place we go to to buy manure to spread over it! Well .... the thought came to me that when we have "sticky pooy" stuff in our lives that we go "yukk - don't like this" then maybe Father God, who is the gardener, will use it as manure to help those wonderful fruits grow in our lives that we and He love to see. Praise God in the midst of the "poo"!
I feel there are people who are stuck in cycles of sin that they have tried to be free from and I feel like the Lord is saying that He is greater than that sin and addiction and that He is faithful. Even in the midst of the battle, speak out loud that "Jesus is faithful, my life will not always look like this and Jesus is going to help me!"
1 Thessalonians 5:24 - The One who calls you is faithful, and He will do it.
Someone has shared about seeing a picture of Worthing covered with a rainbow-coloured sky. One week on, and the steps outside the Guildbourne centre in the middle of town have been decorated in bright rainbow colours!
On our prayer walk God shown me Worthing completely covered with a rainbow-coloured sky and I felt Him say “there is so much beauty in this place - I want you to be blessed by it.” Praying for unity amongst all churches and believers 🙏🏼
As we walked around Worthing I felt God impress on my heart - “The places that have been abandoned by man, they will never been abandoned by God. His love will flow through the streets like a river.”
When praying over Worthing and the new plant there, I sensed God saying that He wants to be a Father to the fatherless and that He is going to remove the heavy curtains.
Verse for Worthing and this season of preparation >>
“Enlarge the place of your tent,
And let them stretch out the curtains of your dwellings;
Do not spare;
Lengthen your cords,
And strengthen your stakes.”
