DECEMBER PRAYER LETTER


DECEMBER PRAYER LETTER

Dec. 2011

Greetings,

MINISTRY UPDATES:

-continued preaching/teaching at Zoar and Fox’s Hollow services on Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday; preparing to finish up verse by verse study of Genesis at Fox’s Hollow; considering what we may need to do at the first of the year;

-prayer meeting for revival in Hampshire County continues on first and third Saturday of every month;

-have really enjoyed the time on Sunday night with our home bible study/ prayer time; they have asked to be taught more on prayer and am currently going through the ‘worship’ section;

-continue devotional writings for blog posts;

-continue to send out daily (somewhat daily) prayer emails for helps and prayer leadings;

-continued to promote OneCry and Awaken 2012 for WV churches and associations

FAMILY:

-football and cross country has ended and basketball and wrestling has begun;  these practices, current scrimmages and games make each night a challenge about who needs to be where and when;

-Thanksgiving was wonderful; that is also the first week of hunting and Joshua and Jonathan killed their first deer (doe); Hannah got her second deer (doe) on the first day; I killed two 3 point bucks;  meat has been provided;

-Christmas plans are being made for all that we need to do and accomplish in between all our other activities; 

-planning now for the kids activities for the New Year and how they will serve the Lord better;

PRAYER FOCUS:

-continue to see a slide in families, marriages and yielded lives unto the Lord;

-world events have captured my thoughts and heart in prayer times;  I have brought my maps back out to cover places in the Middle East, especially Egypt, east Africa and the famine; mesmerized by Asia and the great need there;

-continue to prayer for Hampshire county/churches/ revival; cover the WV convention leaders and the hope for the New Year and prayer emphasis;

-over the last month and a half, 3 cancer patients have come to me for prayer; 

-searching for through multiple sermons, books, Scriptures on the indwelling Spirit; the book by AJ Gordon, ‘The Ministry of the Spirit’ has provoked a lot of thought into this;

BOOKS:

AJ Gordon, ‘The Ministry of the Spirit’; James Gilchrist Lawson, ‘Deeper Experiences of famous Christians’; Mrs. Taylor, ‘Behind the Ranges, the story of JO Fraser’; William Law, ‘A Serious Call to a Devout and Holy Life’; William Law, ‘The Power of the Spirit’; Isaac Ambrose, ‘Looking Unto Jesus’; William Gurnall, ‘The Christian in Complete Armour’;  Wesley Duewel’s books – 3 of them;

I finish reading through the Bible in the next couple days.  It will be my 34th time all the way through;  I will use December to refresh Psalm 119.  I will also go back and lists all the promises of God saying, ‘I will’ for future use in prayer teaching. 

ANSWERED PRAYERS:

-I shared with my email prayer lists, that back in September we lost our freezer and all our meat.  God provided a freezer in September, ½ a steer by a church family;  but the killing of 5 deer last week greatly provided for us; 

-Two loads of wood have been provided.

-cancer patients have seen very encouraging  healing; 

-great hunger and prayer lives increasing in and around the churches, very encouraging to me;

-SBC NAmB called for January 2012 to be a month of prayer;  I am pleased they did this, but they leave it open ended and not amble push to draw others into the work and labor of prayer for our nation.

-provisions continue in great ways;



Thank you for your continued support and prayers that you have given to me and my family.  We not only finish this year out, we prepare for the New Year for what the Lord desires in us and through us.   May we see revival soon for His glory Names’ sake.

Until,

Dan Biser
