prayer points:
-Lord let your mercy flow, cleanse and purge away every weight of sin amongst the brethren, from the leaders down to the least member.
-Lord open the spiritual eyes of every member in the choir, so that they will begin to understand your ways and also to know the purpose of the choir call and ministry.
-Lord let the ministry of the Holy spirit be made manifest in the life of every member of the choir (pour out your spirit upon the choir).
-Lord open the hearts of those under the ministration of the choir, so that they can be able to receive from you.
-Lord let your love be shared abroad in the heart of every member of the choir.
-Take authority over the works of the enemy, bind and cast them out in the name of Jesus.

The Gospel accounts show that Jesus often turned to God in prayer. (Mark 1:35; Luke 5:16; 22:41) During his ministry on earth, Jesus deliberately set aside time to pray. The disciple Matthew wrote: “Having sent the crowds away, [Jesus] went up into the mountain by himself to pray.” (Matthew 14:23) From such moments spent in quiet communication with his heavenly Father, Jesus gained strength. (Matthew 26:36-44) Today, spiritually-minded people likewise look for opportunities to communicate with God, knowing that this will strengthen their relationship with the Creator and help them to become more Christlike in their thinking.

Jesus often spent extended periods of time in prayer. (John 17:1-26) For instance, before he chose the 12 men who would become his apostles, Jesus “went out into the mountain to pray, and he continued the whole night in prayer to God.” (Luke 6:12) Although not necessarily spending the whole night in prayer, those who are spiritually-minded follow Jesus’ example. Before making major decisions in life, they take ample time to pray to God, seeking the direction of the holy spirit in making choices that will deepen their spirituality.

In his prayers, Jesus also showed the depth of feeling that we ought to imitate in our prayers. Note what Luke recorded about the way Jesus prayed on the evening before he died. “Getting into an agony he continued praying more earnestly; and his sweat became as drops of blood falling to the ground.” (Luke 22:44) Jesus had prayed earnestly before, but on this occasion, faced with the most severe test of his earthly life, he prayed “more earnestly”—and his prayer was answered. (Hebrews 5:7) Spiritually-minded people follow Jesus’ example. When faced with trials that are particularly severe, they pray “more earnestly” to God for holy spirit, guidance, and support.

Since Jesus was clearly a man of prayer, it is not surprising that his disciples wanted to imitate him in this regard. Therefore, they asked him: “Lord, teach us how to pray.” (Luke 11:1) Similarly today, those who value spiritual matters and want to be guided by God’s holy spirit follow Jesus’ example in how they pray to God. True spirituality and prayer go hand in hand.

I have been considering taking up full time ministry. I don’t know what that looks like exactly so foreign missions is still up in the air. I will definitely be a prayer warrior as I make myself available for God’s will. I was just wondering, if any at all, what are all the Spanish-speaking countries in the 10/40 window? I am fluent in Spanish and was wondering if there were any nations I might be able to consider reaching out to before considering taking up another language.

Well by 10/40 I think you mean latitude 10 to 40.Next week I go to Guyana which is just S. of # 10.Where I live in Canada it is at 42 degrees N.In between these you will find Panama,Costa Rica,Cuba,Dom.R.,Nicaragua,El Salvador,Guatemala,Honduras and Mexico.Hablo español cada dia y estoy asistiendo a una Iglesia Hispana todos los Domingos en el Canadá.Recuerde al Señor Jesús porque él es nuestra sola esperanza.Dios le bendiga.

Poetry – The Clown’s Prayer – most famous of the clown poems

As I stumble through this life,
help me to create more laughter than tears,
dispense more cheer than gloom,
spread more cheer than despair.

Never let me become so indifferent,
that I will fail to see the wonders in the eyes of a child,
or the twinkle in the eyes of the aged.

Never let me forget that my total effort is to cheer people,
make them happy, and forget momentarily,
all the unpleasantness in their lives.

And in my final moment,
may I hear You whisper:
“When you made My people smile,
you made Me smile.”

This is very good. A job well done.

Acts 6:3-5 niv
Brothers and sisters, choose seven men from among you who are known to be full of the Spirit and wisdom. We will turn this responsibility over to them 4 and will give our attention to prayer and the ministry of the word.”

5 This proposal pleased the whole group. They chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit; also Philip, Procorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas from Antioch, a convert to Judaism.

When someone says, "The Holy Spirit is a person", they (obviously) do not mean, "The Holy Spirit is a human being".

They also do not mean "The Holy Spirit has a personality" (though that is much closer to the truth).

They mean, "The Holy Spirit is an individual with an individual identity."

The Holy Spirit is – obviously – much more than *merely* a person. He is a *supernatural* person – a being unlike any Earthly being. In the same way that "God is in us" (or can be), so can the Holy Spirit be.

I’m Christian and I was wondering if you know any groups taking prayer requests like as a prayer ministry where people in the USA can call prayer requests in, or email to a Christian group.
Thanks for any information.

Many religious people tell me that God answers their prayers all the time. This is nice for them, I suppose. But, I wonder, if you believe that God answers your prayers, and then you watch the news or read the paper, you must see the tragedies that fill our world. And, if you think about it, you must wonder about the people who’s lives these tragedies affect. Surely many of them are good people who believe in God with all their heart–people who have prayed for help.

So, what happens when someone prays to God for a new baby, or a new job, or recovery from an illness, or something mundane like finding their keys? (I saw that last one on the Christian ministry show Marilyn & Sarah) What happens when God grants these prayers, but an abused child doesn’t get his prayer answered? Or a war victim doesn’t get her prayer answered? Or a whole town gets flooded, even the churches & day care centers? How do you feel when you believe your prayer was answered, but millions of others were not?

Thanks for your thoughts!

This is the most disturbing concept I find about Christianity, there is so much heinous barbaric stuff going on in this world but many people are self centered and turn a blind eye, I’m alright Jack. I was in Honduras last year during a big earthquake, it was 7.1, luckily it was in the ocean and happened at 3am, only 6 people died in the whole country and collapsed bridges di no harm because no traffic around. Not long after was the Haiti earthquake, which was devastating as we know. Honduras is 100% religious as many latin countries are, the people in Honduras said quote "God loves us much more than Haiti, we are blessed by his mercy because we are better people who pray to him"
It disturbs me that people are thankful to a God for helping them in any way, small or big like you say, passing exams, or someone is ill, but what about the child that lays sick with HIV in a bombay brothel, what about the dogs that are tied up all day in the sun on a short chain in the yards of these ever so religious Honduran people, what about the 1000s of people and animals suffering every day on a grand scale in numerous ways who may be very good, innocent people who also believe and pray to this so called loving God? I suspect most of the answers you will get to this question will based around statements like we can’t question God, he has a plan, only saved people get help, he can do what he wants with his creation because he is almighty etc. As for me I would feel too guilty to have my own prayers answered and too outraged to worship such a being who decides who to help.
