Okay, it is time to be blunt about what the Lord says about prayer-
There is never an outpouring of God's Spirit to us without a preeminent outpouring of our spirit to Him in prayer. Test this - through Scripture (ie. Pentecost) and through the centuries of great missions and revivals (Elliot, Hudson Taylor).
We have been meeting to pray for our school for over a year now. I want to extend the invitation to everyone who prays for WCS. Typically, we meet in the prayer room of the elementary campus. But over the last several weeks our numbers have been dwindling. So, we need to revive our prayer for WCS. Let's try Mondays, when His mercies seem renewed by our corporate worship of Sundays. I like meeting in the elementary campus prayer room; I think it gives us insight when we pray on site. So, let's meet there every Monday except the first one of each month, on that morning we will meet at the unfinished gym of the new campus to Pray for His provision and completion.
8:15 untiil we are finished, but we will get right down to business - Less chit chat and more petitioning. We can always visit afterward so that those who need to can head out.
Please pray throughout this week for His guidance and on who He might have you invite. Let us finish this school year STRONG and in His power seek victory for His kingdom through carrying out the mission He set forth through the leaders of our school. Do you know our school's mission? That will be our first prayer. See you next Monday, March 7, at the NEW CAMPUS!
God tells us to "pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord's people" (Ephesians 6:18). Paul mentions this right after he tells us to put on God's armor and I believe prayer is crucial for victory. We can do this!
If you have any other suggestions, please share them so we can cover our school in prayer.
I love our school and know God will be faithful to complete it! He may just be waiting for us to want it enough to ask!
Now, I understand that not all of us can make it, but I wanted you to know so you can join us in spirit.
Many of us as friends of Weatherford Christian School pray for our children, our teachers, our staff, and our volunteers. We also want to lift up the ongoing projects of our school. In fact, we all realize there are probably many opportunities for prayer about which we, as individuals, know very little. Herein lies the purpose of this Prayer Corner blog.
