DREAMING

Imagine...

  • if every christian in every country prayed for one thing on one day....would we see mountains moved??
  • 365 days in a year... if every christian agreed to pray for the same thing on each of those days...could we change the world??
  • if we could fulfil the Lord's words and 'do even greater things than these', greater things than he was doing in his time...GLOBAL CHANGE??

my top 5 prayer list off the top of my head:

  1. to remove evil from the lives of children so Satan couldn't touch them. Then it would be a priority for christians everywhere to reach every child in every nation and raise up a generation who would bring the LORD's eternal plans closer to completion...imagine if the LORD is waiting for that generation to complete his masterplan?
  2. to remove poverty from Africa - dedicate one day of prayer to each country...to set them free from poverty would be to remove the chains Satan has put on their destiny...to set them free from what binds them and give them back their future. This would require action on our part too...churches to help villages, denominations to save one city each, find people jobs, build shelters, provide food and water....because the LORD will still need us to be his hands.
  3. to unite each denomination in the body of christ so we can become that awesome body that he prayed for us to be in John 17 - to be one. each part serving in it's unique way but united with one purpose - our God's great commission. We don't have to be the same but we can each do our part without judging the other and pray for each other.
  4. to save christian marriages and remove sexual immorality from christian families - sexual abuse of children, adultery, sexual immorality of any kind.
  5. to fill us with his love - the LORD's perfect love which never fails. So that we will have compassion for the lost and His cause written on our hearts. So that we will be passionate about what He is passionate about and never give up on each other and our neighbours. One of Joyce Meyers book titles - REDUCE ME TO LOVE. I would pray that for each of us believers.
i can seriously dream...
but just IMAGINE if we could globally affect change just by praying together in unity...
