MARCH PRAYER LETTER, 2012

MARCH, 2012

GREETINGS,

Ministry Updates:
--continue to pastor at Zoar Baptist and Fox's Hollow Baptist; 5 services on Sunday, Prayer meeting and Bible study on Tuesday; getting ready to finish verse by verse study of Genesis;  Bible study and prayer time at Fox's Hollow is on Thursday, just completed Genesis and will begin Exodus up to chapter 20;
--Sunday evening bible study and prayer at the Biser house at 7 PM has continued to be a blessing with seeing new ones coming and being able to teach the prayer notebook;  2/26 we had 12 adults and 15 children;
--despite weather issues through January and February, have maintained Satuday night prayer meeting in Hampshire county for revival on first and third Saturdays;  continue to reach out to the 90 some churches were we see 24,000 population with 21,000 out of church; 
--have continued now for 8 months on 'Daily Prayer Email' to 66 individuals, 5 countries represented and numerous states around the US; 
--have been led and am seeking the Lord's will for doing another Broken Before the Throne prayer time;  have contacted Erwin Lutzer to see if Moody Church would be open to hosting;  you can find past Broken Before the Throne info at http://www.brokenbeforethethrone.com

Family
--major warfare as been these winter months against our families;  mainly attacks from without, but not without issues cropping up among us;  We settle our family issues by calling a 'family meeting' to air and direct the issues at hand;
--Satan would have my children I know that; your prayers are a shield to them and me and I thank you greatly for your prayers;
--Hannah continues her first year at Potomac State; Joshua is preparing for track season and graduation;  praying for the Lord to direct him for his future; Timothy was bumped up to varsity for basketball and after that is over, the 3 high schoolers will all be running for track, should be a good year;  trying to continue lead the younger 4 to seek the Lord now;  they have their prayer times, devotional at bed time and bible reading;  May God take them and use them for His glory;  Rebekah has been home this week with strep, our real first sickness this winter; 
--finances, wood, food all have been in way of answered prayers this winter;  'Stand still and consider the wondrous works of God'  How great is His faithfulness day in and day out.

Prayer Focus:
--families, marriages, the young people all continue to flare up around me as Satan sifts and destroys home after home; 
--have continued the notebook emphasis of the 5 circles;  the 5th circle has become dominate in my time and thoughts - "Kingdom"  all based and saturated with thoughts of fighting the darkness that is spreading across our land;  the imagery is the sun coming up in the east, and as it comes up it pushes the darkness west;  but we see the darkness pushing the light back down, so that night continues in our land;  I am moved to fight this battle in my prayers for more light to remove the darkness.  It consume me day and night. 
--One Cry has begun in a call for prayer for revival and spiritual awakening. 
--lost souls;  over 100;
-- murder/suicides had abated for about 6 weeks, but two just in this last week;
--two school deaths just this week, immediately go to arms over this demonic attack for our children;

Books:
-- my reading has been cut back drastically becuse more time has been given to writing;
Still reading, although more slowly, 'Looking unto Jesus' by Ambrose; 'Why Revival Tarries' by Ravenhill; 'JO Fraser' by Taylor; 'The Hidden Life of Prayer' by mcIntrye; 'Mighty Prevailing Prayer' by Duewel; 'Andrew murray on Prayer, 5 books in one, returned to it to read 'The Prayer Life'; 

Writing:
-- continue daily devotional blog at http://dbiser.blogspot.com  currently up to Isaiah 6; 
--continue to write sermons, articles, most recently confession at my personal blog where this is located at http://danbiser.blogspot.com

Again, if you have taken time to read this and pray for me, Thank You!  So much of the work today is found in the power of prayers that covers and maintains us all.  No prayer or little prayer means very little done for the kingdom; much prayer and deep prayer means much done for the kingdom and His glory in answering those prayers.

until,
dan biser
