"Surprise Me God 30-Day Experiment – Day 19”

For a long season my heart has yearned to prayerfully connect with another positive & goal minded couple who embrace the concept of working/flowing together in ministry as a harmonized unit. To my surprise I "stumbled" across such a couple via the following website: http://www.myprayercircle.org/ . If you desire a "Faith Community" open for civil discussion, prayer, encouragement and support this may be a match for you.

“A little laughter”

A little boy, who wanted $100.00 very badly, prayed for two weeks but nothing happened. Then he decided to write GOD a letter requesting $100.00. When the postal authorities received the letter to GOD, U.S.A., they decided to send it to the President. The President was so impressed, touched, and amused that he instructed his secretary to send the boy $5.00. Mr. President thought that this would appear to be a lot of money to the little boy. The little boy was delighted with the $5.00 and immediately sat down to write a thank you note to GOD that read: "Dear God, Thank you very much for sending me the money. However, I noticed that for some reason you had to send it through Washington, D.C., and, as usual, those devil's deducted $95.00.

“A little laughter”

The local bar was so sure that its bartender was the strongest man around that they offered a standing $1000 bet.The bartender would squeeze a lemon until all the juice ran into a glass, and hand the lemon to a patron. Anyone who could squeeze one more drop of juice out would win the money.Many people had tried over time (weightlifters, longshoremen, etc.), but nobody could do it.One day this scrawny little man came in, wearing thick glasses and a polyester suit, and said in a tiny, squeaky voice, "I'd like to try the bet."After the laughter had died down, the bartender said OK, grabbed a lemon, and squeezed away. Then he handed the wrinkled remains of the rind to the little man.But the crowd's laughter turned to total silence as the man clenched his fist around the lemon and six drops fell into the glass.As the crowd cheered, the bartender paid the $1000, and asked the little man, "What do you do for a living? Are you a lumberjack, a weightlifter, or what?" The man replied, "I work for the IRS."

“16 types of Prayer – #16 Corporate"


Key Verse: Acts 12: 5 - 16


This is a powerful verse of scripture. It reveals what happens when people of faith make a intelligent decision to put there differences aside in order to rally together corporately in prayer.
Yes, it is rare but possible to allow what may appear to divide us bring us together for a common good. These folks allowed a very negative situation to bring them together in prayer. It seems they became focused to the point where no matter how long it took they would seek God's help in prayer for Peter who had been imprisoned by the King at that time. At the appointed time a Divine Angel was assigned from Heaven to rescue Peter from jail. Once the Angel awoke Peter out of his sleep Peter was instructed to put on his shoes and warm himself with his coat for the journey ahead. Once out of the confines of the jails perimeter Peter was inspired to go to Johns house which just so happened to be where all the people of faith had gathered to pray for him. After recounting what had just taken place it seems they were amazed themselves at the Divine results their decision to pray corporately actually had on the present situation.

"Surprise Me God 30-Day Experiment – Day 17”

This one may sound a little strange but bear with me till the end. Out of no where the stick/pole that my hangers hook onto in my closet suddenly collapsed to the ground causing all my clothes to tumble to the ground. I thought to myself that's strange...the same amount of clothes have been there all year and did not cave in...why now"? My husband came in soon after and saw what happened. He said "now you have a chance to get rid of the old stuff". He was right. In order to make room for the new, fresh and exciting stuff coming your way in 2008 it might be wise to prepare now by getting rid of the "old stuff". If you have not worn or used it within the last 6 months it might be safe to toss or at least put into storage containers.

A dietitian was once addressing a large audience in Chicago. "The material we put into our stomachs is enough to have killed most of us sitting here, years ago."Red meat is awful. Soft drinks erode your stomach lining. Chinese food is loaded with MSG. Vegetables can be disastrous, and none of us realizes the long-term harm caused by the germs in our drinking water."But there is one thing that is the most dangerous of all and we all have, or will, eat it. Can anyone here tell me what food it is that causes the most grief and suffering for years after eating it?"A 75-year-old man in the front row stood up and said, "Wedding cake".

“16 types of Prayer – #15 Lamenting"

Key Verses: Jeremiah 4:8 & Jeremiah 9:17-19

There are people on earth who are touched to the core of their being by bleak, negative or impossible situations they may witness or hear. They will literally lament and wail out to God for Divine intervention, help, support, reversal or blessings to be released into persons lives, various situations and issues. Some believe it does not take all that. They say he is a God of love, mercy, grace and peace. We agree on that point. However there are times that the hot anger of the Lord is stirred up in response to mans choices or actions. Therefore I humbly submit to you that it is the Spirit of the Living God that works through human flesh to cry, wail or lament while standing in the gap to bring forth his will in bleak situations. See Romans 8:27 - 28.

This is a type of prayer that can be utilized in what appears to be overwhelming or hopeless situations. That's right it is a opportunity to get down in the presence of the Lord and wail before him with whom we have to do......let our hearts melt or break before him on behalf of another. During this time we must constantly remain yielded to the Holy Spirit. How long? Until the burden is lifted....until you sense Heaven has released your specific answer. This can be considered a act of love and therefore does not require one getting on a bullhorn tellin' everyone about how God used you to pray for so and so or this and that. Nope seek your reward from heaven...it last longer.

"Surprise Me God 30-Day Experiment – Day 16”

Today was a extremely frustrating, disappointing and long day. While looking back over my day at bedtime....I was Surprised that by God's grace I was able to maintain a positive attitude without going on an "emotional rampage or outburst" speaking negative words along the way.

*******************************************************

"Prayer Exercise"

Allow me to say this prayer out loud with you: "My vessel is available to you Lord. Use me to lament before you on behalf of people or negative issues that may come into my sphere of influence in Jesus name. Amen"

“A little laughter”

The Sunday school teacher was carefully explaining the story of Elijah the Prophet and the false prophets of Baal. She explained how Elijah built the altar, put wood upon it, cut the steer in pieces and laid it upon the altar.And then Elijah commanded the people of God to fill four barrels of water and pour it over the altar. He had them do this four times."Now, said the teacher, "can anyone in the class tell me why the Lord would have Elijah pour water over the steer on the altar?"A little girl in the back of the room raised her hand with great enthusiasm. "To make the gravy."

“16 types of Prayer – #14 Decree"

Key Verse: Job 22:28 (Amplified Bible)


Here is yet another scripture verse that outlines the power of the spoken word. There is life and death in the power of the tongue. Let's go to the "remembering room" of your life for a minute. Allow me to ask you a few thought provoking questions. Now think of all the words spoken by you over your lifetime. How about words spoken about you by your ancestors..mother, grandmother, great grandmother? Ok its now safe to assume at various levels words have been spoken out into the atmosphere over your life....but where have they gone?


This brings us to the believer in right standing with God who has "Kingdom Empowerment" to decree a thing and it shall be establish. You may be thinking "what is Kingdom Empowerment"? I am so glad you asked. Allow me to share this. As spiritual Sons & Daughters of the King of Kings and Lord of Lords we have been given or enherited Kingdom Authority/Empowerment" down here on earth. That's right we represent the King in the earth realm. When a King speaks, writes or gives a decree there is no and if or what about it. It is settled. Now, just for a moment....ponder on this. One can decide to take a offensive stand in this area by decreeing positive, life giving words over our present and future circumstances. Talk about power! Choose today to began to decree positive change in your home, city, community, state and nation.

*******************************************************

"Surprise Me God 30-Day Experiment – Day 15”

Once again the Lord surprised me by touching the heart of someone to give something to me that met a true need in my life.

*******************************************************

"Prayer Exercise"


Allow me to say this prayer out loud with you: "As your son/daughter thank you for the Kingdom power and authority you have entrusted me with. From this moment forward I choose to take an offensive stand as it relates to what I speak into the atmosphere. What I think about I speak about. My thought then becomes a action. That action becomes a habit. That habit becomes a destiny. Now father I tear down and remove negative words lingering in the atmoshphere over my life. I speak that my life come into divine alignment with your will and purpose in Jesus name. Amen"

“A little laughter”

There was a barber that thought that he should share his faith with his customers more than he had been doing lately. So the next morning when the sun came up and the barber got up out of bed he said, "Today I am going to witness to the first man that walks through my door."Soon after he opened his shop the first man came in and said, "I want a shave!" The barber said, "Sure, just sit in the seat and I'll be with you in a moment." The barber went in the back and prayed a quick desperate prayer saying, "God, the first customer came in and I'm going to witness to him. So give me the wisdom to know just the right thing to say to him. Amen."Then quickly the barber came out with his razor knife in one hand and a Bible in the other while saying "Good morning sir. I have a question for you... Are you ready to die?"
