My House shall be called a House of Prayer

We began the evening praying for the individual prayer cards that we get each week in the services.

We showed a video of Jim Cymbala speaking on prayer tonight. It is a powerful video. Some statements he made were:
  • The church was born while people prayed.
  • The earmark of a true believer as seen in the Bible when Annanias was being convinced that Paul had become a believer. It was said that "he prays"

  • Paul told Timothy first of all prayers and supplications should be lifted up for all men.

  • How you do Gods work (through the power of the Spirit from prayer) is as important as doing Gods work.

  • The minute prayer ends in a church, the Spirit lifts.

  • Gods house should have the aroma of prayer about it.
The final portion of our time was spent as people called out to God to let Experience Life be a house of prayer. There was a real sense of Gods presence as we prayed.

Answers to Prayer
One testimony tonight came from a lady within our body who had been walking with a walker for the past three years who God touched and she is walking without her walker now. We had seven first time commitments to Christ this past week and 8 recommitments.
