"An Open Letter to the Church Community"
September 12, 2015

Greetings,
The evil in the headlines and across our nation as greatly subsided and relinquished over the last few days.  This is no doubt a great answer to prayers that met this influx of evil from Satan and hell against our land, families and souls.  But what now?  As the pattern has gone, we pray and rally in the heat of the moment, but as soon as it begins to abate we return to the very things of flesh, carnality, neglects and sin that prompted for God to allow these judgments and punishments.  WE are such creatures of unfaithfulness and seem doomed for the path of destruction by our continued course of choices against Him. 

My burden over these years has been prevailing prayer for the power and Presence of God to come down upon HIs church and sweep the population.  The word that best describes the end result of this means of prayer is REVIVAL.  Revival, by my own personal description, means God's manifest Presence; it means God's fullness.  The reality of the church and Christianity to the greatest part of the church today is that we are 'settled upon our lees', content with just a little bit of God's Presence, just in case disaster or calamity comes.  I often regard it as the fire extinguishers red boxes which states -  'break glass in case of emergency'.  God is jealous and will not pandered to such immoral, unholy and low views of His Divine honor and glory.

This burden of prayer has led me to follow in uncharted waters of obedience to places and people that I had no idea at the time, but have a grasp now, of where it was leading.  At the center of my ministry  is Broken Before the Throne (BBtT).  We designed it in 2006 to be a prayer conference to teach/preach, gather and participate in prayer times for long protracted days.  Out of these opportunities I have continued to send to church and prayer leaders what God was saying and leading me to do.  There was also  band of others that followed and interchanged with me of about 70 that also was moved to seek in prayer the Lord's favor and leading. 

What I have seen and experienced out of these prayer times of BBtT has been marvelous for furthering the Lord's kingdom.  I know it to be right.  However, in my own 'humanistic' way, I have sought to promote and encourage BBtT upon many as the means to incorporate to get us to where I so desperately want.  All of this has been stopped at every turn.  Which always keeps taking me back to the Lord, 'what would You have me do?'  I always felt and still feel, this is right and needed.  I would see plans, other conferences and promotions and judge them that although good, not near the depth of BBtT achieved.  My response to show that we are not aiming high enough or deep enough has led to many that I am negative and my critique to harsh. 

This has led me to exist in where I am now.  My prayer ministry has continued through other means.  Throughout all this time of BBtT I pastored two small churches, now I only pastor the one.  But I took to the tech opportunites and social media to continue to promote and teach/preach on prayer.  I have three outlets that I use to do this:
1.  blog posts:  http://dbiser.blogspot.com/  which is my blog for devotional and commentary status for those hungry and devouring the Word of God;
 http://danbiser.blogspot.com/ is a blog that I use for letters, such as this, newspaper religious devotionals, addressing other issues of the day that I have sought to express the burden of the Lord on me for our nation, the state of the church and our own situations;
2.  Social media - via emails, facebook, twitter, and  'daily prayer emails' which was almost daily for a period of time, now bi-monthly to continue to teach, speak to the issues of our day by the means of our prayer lives;
3. Ustream - which is a cheap, easy means of broadcasting and streaming of sermons, appeals, and BBtT and other teachings on prayer;  http://www.ustream.tv/channel/dan-biser 

That which the Lord has revealed and spoken to me, I simply posts and promote in the hopes of it taking root and multiplying for this desired end of Revival.  It is a learning experience, of what is received and what is not, none of which I can change.  And regardless of whether I see revival or not, I must go each day and step to know that at the end of my days, I will have done that which was bidden me.  Until the goal is reached nothing short of it is acceptable to me. Thus the reason that I still do what I do and the way in which I do it.  We are running out of time, and responses are not near what they should be for the times in which we are. 

Thank you to those of you that have invested in my for this pursuit.  Thank you to those that have embraced BBtT and the other avenues that I have ventured in by faith.  Thank you to those pursuing and praying with me and for the same desired end.  Let us remain faithful to the end. 

until,
dan biser
