I am praying for YOU

Pastor TroyI
Dec 29, 2006

My Friends,

James 5:16 “Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.”

I want you to know that during this season of prayer and fasting, we will be lifting you and your needs up to the Lord Jesus. I have already been getting many prayer requests emailed that are of a very serious nature and needing nothing short of the hand of God to intervene in the miraculous.

I know that we serve a precious and merciful Jesus who desires to touch, heal, minister, restore and save. I am reminded of the 120 people that went into the ‘Upper Room’ following Christ’s ascension into heaven. It says that they “were in one place and in one accord.”

Most of you know the result of this time of consecration, obedience and prayer—because you and I are the product of the ministry that would pour out from that place following those incredible 10 days in Jerusalem.

Next week, January 1-8 is our annual “Upper Room” experience and we are believing that the same Holy Spirit who met and moved within them then is the same Holy Spirit that dwells in the life of the believer today!

We have received prayer requests from friends like:

Sondra who ministers to the hungry and needy in South Africa (she has also been with us on the streets of New Orleans) who needs a miracle financial breakthrough for the ministry there---soon.

Christina whose fiancé, Doug, is facing 2-10 years in prison because of a reporting error in a crime that he committed as a 12 year old (and he served 10 years of his childhood in prison already!) He is a radical believer in Jesus now for the past 4 years!

Penny is praying for the salvation of her adult son, Eddie.

Tami wants a miracle in the life of her daughter, Brianna.

La Verna needs a miracle for her daughter with learning disabilities.

Grace could go blind without a miracle and Rafael in Guatemala has two six year old boys who have a rare disease called “Canavan Disease” that causes deterioration in the brain---they have got to have a miracle for the Lord Jesus!

Many of you are facing things that seem too difficult---but I belive that we serve a God who is MORE THAN ABLE!!

Let me know your specific needs and we will be praying and EXPECTING a testimony of how the Holy Spirit moved in the miraculous as believer from around the world stood in faith together!

Blessings,

Pastor Troy
