Greetings,
"But I give myself unto prayer" - Psalm 109:4
Prevailing prayer by God's people, is needed now more than ever. The rise of evil across our nation, the increase of deaths, the remedial judgements on our nation and the powerlessness of the church of God's Spirit are all revealing of how much we need God. And the only way to be filled with God, receive God's mercy, God's help, is to be before Him in 'broken and contrite" prayer. God's people are to be at one with Him, in 'abiding in Him and He in us' through intercession and humble prayer.
The hour of our need going into this new year has never been greater than. What we face in 2020 is unthinkable without God; but 'with God all things are possible.'
1. The Need - we need God. And due to our nations sins, church sins and personal sins, we have separated ourselves from the very One, that we need. And a needed time of confession, examination and spiritual emphasis is needed to confess and repent before Him. The need is to restore the broken relationship between God and His church. It is for the sake of saving the nation and our future, by restoring this broken relationship. Failure of the church to realize this, only deepens our plight and His wrath against us. The secret prayer chamber and the corporate prayer times of His church are remedy for our great need today. WE EITHER PREVAIL, OR FAIL!
2. The Response - knowing that a prevailing prayer time can remedy our issues is the reason of selecting such a prayer time of 100 straight hours. It is to move God's people, and God's praying people to seek Him at the close of this year, in order that we might begin the New Year with Him. What a difference it would make if God would pour out Himself upon those seek, calling and finding Him. Therefore, we are calling for such ca prayer time to finish this year and begin the New Year before Him.
'Let us come boldly before the throne of grace to obtain mercy and find grace to help in this time of need." Hebrews 4:16
Back in the last week of September and entering October, we joined the churches of Austin, TX for an extended period of prayer. There were 7 churches in Austin praying one full week; with each of the 7 churches taking one full day, 24 hours. Thus, covering 168 hours of continuous prayer. I was so blessed by this, that we joined them for such a continuous prayer times as well. However, our set time was not 168 straight hours, but 80 hours. Many of the church, prayer partners and others joined us to fill those prayer slots with praying 1/2 hour or a full hour over those 3 and 1/2 days.
The focus of the prayer is limited to a set priority of the need for our nation and the church. Recognizing again, that the state of the church impacts the state of the nation. A holy, prevailing praying church, can be Spirit filled and see great impact on that nation against the evils of our day. But a restrained praying church will only see greater evils upon our nation and homes.
100 Continuous Prayer - You are being asked to join us in this great response ti our great need. From Saturday, December 28, at 8 AM (EST), we will be praying for 100 straight hours through January 1, Noon (EST). You are asked to take take a full hour, or a 1/2 hour time slot. Now you may think this is easy, for it would only require 100 people to join and pray. However, any one that knows the prayer life of the church today, knows that finding people that can intercede before the Lord for an hour straight is a rare thing to find. There is a remnant out there that is much before the Lord.
A sign up sheet will be filled out and you are simply asked to contact me and let me know what days and times you will take for prayer. Seeing that many are in different time zones, I will seek to adapt all times to eastern standard times.
You are asked to adapt the 1/2 hour or full hour of prayer to the 3 areas of prayer found in our Concert of Prayer. This is not a prayer time for physical needs of sick and such issues. This is an 100 hours of spiritual warfare to fight for our Lord's Name, Kingdom, and church for the close of this year and the beginning of the New Year. It is to see the kingdom work finished to the nations, to see the church revived and set on fire to purify it from our carnal, worldly stink. It is to see countless souls brought into the kingdom world wide for the glory of His Name. It is to see victory over the evils of our day, 'because greater is He that is within us, than he that is in this world".
If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. I await to hear from you. I will be updated as much as I can over the next weeks.
Blessing,
Until,
Dan Biser
