A review of the recent National Prayer Conference Call from 7/28/09:

The Lord met with us as we came before His Throne through Jesus, our Advocate. We began in Praise; remembering Who He is...the Living God, recounting His attributes from Scripture itself and His involvement in our daily lives. It came out as a stunning statement that God alone answers prayers; there is no other. His faithfulness, nothing can separate us from His love, on and on the promises and praise come forth of the great I AM.

Next it was time to Repentance with so much: one precious sister in Jesus shared of her two past abortions and God's forgiveness and grace that abound. Individuals repented for corporate sins and personal ones. I have been weak in the secret place (Ps 91) to meet with my Lord; He is so faithful to keep drawing me and grant grace and sweet forgiveness of this neglect.

Then brothers and sisters begin to Ask...in the charge of Jeremiah 33: 3, "Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and mighty unsearchable things you do not know." The pace was strong as many concerns was brought in belief; "Now to Him is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine according to His power that is at work within us, to Him be glory..." Ephesians 3:20-21a Some prayer topics included healthcare legislation, G-20 (economic summit) slated for September in Pittsburgh (G-20.com), for righteousness in government, and education, integrity in the marketplace and media, purity in entertainment, the church to arise and have a united voice in these days, our nation's youth and families so much was brought in obedience as Jesus says, we have not because we ask not.

Yield was our final response to both this time of corporate and personal prayer. To listen to Him and follow in obedience, consider our ways, change our direction as led, to connect with Jesus Christ, our risen Lord.

As we are led in National Daily Prayer through conference calls, personal quiet time, with others in prayer walks, in homes, churches, etc, it is our hope that you will be also to join this Task Force as we gather for the National Prayer Summit, October 16-18th, here in Colorado Springs, FACE to FACE. Praying with one another is powerful, seeing God move and meet with us, learn from others, worship in unity, just come. Click here for details: http://www.ndptf.org/summit/
