Praying for the Prodigals...

The Wednesday night prayer meeting at The Moody Church (www.moodychurch.org) is focusing on praying for the "Prodigals" in the families of our congregation.

Last night was the first such prayer meeting--and it was marvelous!

And very, very powerful!

I can't remember when I have been in a prayer service where people were crying out to God, and weeping over their "prodigal" family members.

Our precious pastor, Dr Erwin Lutzer, led this gathering in calling on the name of the Lord, and believing in faith that He would hear and answer our cries to Him.

One of my New Year's resolutions was that I would faithfully attend the Wednesday evening prayer service of my local church. With God's help, I'll be there next week too.

Please pray for us.

Please...

Phil,

What an awesome idea for a prayer meeting! I'll look forward to seeing what God does through this.

While in your prayer service, please take a second and whisper my name to God as well.

Best wishes for a great 2007.

It's easy to ask for an end to name calling when supporting a party (and platform) that deserves the names they're being called. The Bible talks alot about reputation and name and although no party is perfect, it is unfathomable to ignore the major issues of the party to focus on the smaller issues of the other.
