Prayer & Intercession

Clarion Call to Prayer 

"Ask God for a desire to be in His presence.  Go past asking for things.  Break through to the seeking 
level - for Him, for His heart, His revelation.  When you break through, you'll learn the heart of God for your city.  We need the Holy Spirit, not strategies."  Ask yourself , "What is it in my life that will hold back the Spirit of God?"  (John Mulinde from Uganda)

"Father, we bless you!  Thank you for not withholding your own Son that we night be saved, that we might have life and even that we might have life abundantly!  Father, we come boldly to the throne of your grace to ask for grace in time of need and we give you thanks and praise for making this approach to you and your grace available to us through Christ Jesus!  Blessed be your name forever!  Father, this is the grace we ask for now - we ask that you would rise up among us and do amazing and mighty things -  even things that are visible in the eyes of everyone.  We ask you to do marvelous miracles, healings and deliverances, and give us more of your joy.  Pour out your Spirit upon us and grant us the strongest encouragements and the renewal of our minds.  Father, pour out the Holy Spirit upon every one who is reading this and who is praying for the perfect fulfillment of your will and your works among us and grant the inspiration of the Holy Spirit for each one praying.  We thank you; we praise you.  We are forever grateful to you that you, who gave Jesus for us for the forgiveness of our sins, also will give us gladly and freely so much more!  We ask You to do these things in the name of Jesus.  We thank you, Lord Jesus for making it possible of us to come boldly and ask anything in your name!  We praise you Lord!  Amen."
