Today was almost all wrong. It started out at 4:30am with intense pain due to another round of female fun. Three aleve finally kicked in around 6:00am, and I got to sleep soundly until 9:00am. So, I headed to City HOP thinking I was late for my scheduled 8am to 12pm live feed set. I stayed until 12:30pm or so. I just lounged in the prayer room the whole time feeling like my head would explode. I headed to Martinsville, and took care of some stuff there. Here is the good part...I picked up my new wedding ring!!! Exciting. Back to City HOP late for the 4:00pm set. Told someone that I would be at City HOP tomorrow for 10am. Came home and rechecked the schedule, and realized that I am an entire day OFF schedule. I thought today was Thrusday....that means I actually missed my scheduled 12pm-4pm time, and someone was there waiting for me and I NEVER SHOWED UP....I suck. The worst part is I thought tomorrow was Friday, and its only Thursday, and my head still hurts. Shalom
It has been a difficult weekend. Dan is having his first round of tests, so the studying and stress has intensified. I am trying to be supportive, but I've been extremely busy. I need to use a lot of discretion in how I spend my time. My highest calling is to be supportive of my husband... higher than ministry for sure. I haven't made dinner in two weeks. I did do some cleaning today, so thats something. Part of being supportive to Dan is in prayer, and I'm asking God to teach me how to intercede for him. He has a test tomorrow, and I'm planning to be in prayer during that time. So, my prayer for today is two-fold. First, for me...Abba, with humbleness I ask that you raise me up to be supportive to Dan. That you would enable me by the power of your Spirit to be his bride and help-meet. I ask for a spirit of wisdom when scheduling my time, that I would not miss important times to be with Dan. Also, would you impart to me the grace of fasting and prayer. That I might be a praying wife. Teach me how to interceed on behalf of my husband, to stand in the gap for him. For Dan...Father, raise him up with strength and might that He might perform according to Your will. May he have confidence that he can do all things by the power of the Holy Spirit. That You have called him. You have chosen him. You have set his feet upon this path, and I ask that you make a way for him to walk in, O great Waymaker. Fulfill in him that the last shall be first, and raise him up to be first in his class. I ask for the spirit of wisdom, revelation and understanding to rest upon him. That he might comprehend his studies, and recall information that he has been inundated with. May he have excellence and accuracy, swiftness and confidence as he takes his test. I ask that you impart a spirit of peace, that he might not stress or fear. While he sleeps, God, renew him and refresh him; that he might wake and feel rejuvenated and confident in love before you. I ask that you look upon Your son with favor as he labors in the natural. Would you look upon Your son with favor. May Your Spirit rest upon him. Protect him from doubt and fear that would beset him, and keep his gaze fixed on You and what You have chosen him to do. I ask that you would enable him to become as You see him; as You created him to be. I ask this according to Your will and by Your Son's name. Amen and Shalom.
Calling out intercessors to fast and pray--for our nation, for the Gulf Coast. We've been interceeding for the situation with Hurricane Rita for a few days now, and it is awesome to see in diminishing in strength. Father, have your way in this nation. I ask for a spirit of revival and prayer to desend upon us. Also, protection for people in the path of Rita. Calm the storm as Jesus did. "Peace, be still."
Isa 49:13 Sing, O heavens! Be joyful, O earth! And break out in singing, O mountains! For the LORD has comforted His people, And will have mercy on His afflicted. Abba, have mercy upon Your afflicted. Ps 136:1 Oh, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever. Ps 103:8 The LORD is merciful and gracious, Slow to anger, and abounding in mercy. Adonai, you are faithful and true, and your mercy endures. Your anger cannot outstand Your love. You are great. You keep your covenants. Stretch forth your mercy to this nation, and restore us to You. Amen and Shalom
Wow. This is the first night I have home before 11:00 in a week or so! It feels good to just hang out! I have been busy at City HOP and other regional meetings. We are meeting for Harp and Bowl 4 days per week each a 2 hour session. We aslo have 2 teaching nights each week. Sunday, we do not meet. I am really enjoying harp and bowl. I'm kind of learning while I'm going, but that's okay. There have been more than a few light bulb moments. Its just starting to click. The wonderful thing about harp and bowl is that new songs and new prayers are birthed in each session. No two sessions are alike. We start and each time go down a different path; winding, curving, nevr knowing where we will end up. Its like God reveals His heart and emotions every time, and gives it life of its own. Amazing. One new thing at City HOP is we are able to webcast the prayer room at Kansas City IHOP. So, when I'm not doing live harp and bowl, I (and other people) can dwell in the House of Prayer, and interceed for the city, the region, the nation, friends and family. There will be an atmoshpere of enjoyable prayer and worship. There is a place for Anna! Praise be to God! Our prayer for City HOP is that God will build His House of Prayer; that it will not be a house built by man. So, breathe O breath of God. Breathe life into Your House of Prayer. Breathe life into this city. Raise up a place for Your Glory to dwell, for Your Spirit to rest. Do not let your people become discouraged, but impart to them strength and might upon their inner man that they might run the race with patience never wearying. Raise up a place for people to seek and find you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. You do it, God, for it cannot be done by man. You do it for Your Glory, for Your Fame, so that Your Glory may cover the earth as the water covers the sea. Amen and Shalom
