Week #2

Can Dreams and prayers of one person make a difference?

Have you ever dropped a pebble in a pond and watched the ripples work their way out and they continue to go on an on.

Sometimes small actions make enormous things happen

The bible is filled with those who took risks looked foolish for the sake of God’s plan.

Noah built an ARK in the dessert, and Israelite army marched around Jericho blowing shofars, Peter got out of the boat in the middle of a storm because Jesus said come to me.

Moses was familiar with doing something beyond himself because God said to do it…Going before Pharaoh demanding he let God’s people go, Raising his rod over the red sea

yet because of their action God moved and big things happened.

So can one persons prayer or dream make a difference!!! Resounding yes!!!

James 5:16 AMP

Confess to one another therefore your faults (your slips, your false steps, your offenses, your sins) and pray [also] for one another, that you may be healed and restored [to a spiritual tone of mind and heart]. The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available [dynamic in its working].

Luke 18:1–5 ESV

And he told them a parable to the effect that they ought always to pray and not lose heart. He said, “In a certain city there was a judge who neither feared God nor respected man. And there was a widow in that city who kept coming to him and saying, ‘Give me justice against my adversary.’ For a while he refused, but afterward he said to himself, ‘Though I neither fear God nor respect man, yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will give her justice, so that she will not beat me down by her continual coming.’ ”

Luke 18:6-8 NLT

6 Then the Lord said, “Learn a lesson from this unjust judge. 

7 Even he rendered a just decision in the end. So don’t you think God will surely give justice to his chosen people who cry out to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off? 

8 I tell you, he will grant justice to them quickly! But when the Son of Man[a] returns, how many will he find on the earth who have faith?”

It takes faith to keep praying when you see no answer, when it looks ridiculous, when all you have is a dream and a vision and a word from the Lord.

Church we have to learn a lesson from this unjust Judge.

Crazy Faith

Persistent

God is looking for those who will not give up on the dream, who will not stop their pursuit till the answer comes.

Refuses to back down

Goes after the thing that they know they can have.

Mark 5:25–34 ESV

And there was a woman who had had a discharge of blood for twelve years, and who had suffered much under many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was no better but rather grew worse. She had heard the reports about Jesus and came up behind him in the crowd and touched his garment. For she said, “If I touch even his garments, I will be made well.” And immediately the flow of blood dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of her disease. And Jesus, perceiving in himself that power had gone out from him, immediately turned about in the crowd and said, “Who touched my garments?” And his disciples said to him, “You see the crowd pressing around you, and yet you say, ‘Who touched me?’ ” And he looked around to see who had done it. But the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came in fear and trembling and fell down before him and told him the whole truth. And he said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace, and be healed of your disease.”

Remember last week i told you to write it out make it plane who reads it can run with it.

This is a prayer God gave me on Tuesday Morning after I had to get up about 3:30 ish to 4am to get with the Lord.

Lord my prayer today is that you release what is holding back the flow of the river of God over Petersburg, That the release of finances and the release of people and the release of the dreamers and go getters and the release of those who wont quit pursuing you!

Those who like the old timers know that they know that they know.

I call into being finances to fund this end time ministry, I call forth the supernatural manifestation to fuel and finance this mission and this dream. We will have on fire ministries to all ages and that has a passion for them and that there are finances to do the ministry well without fail. The flood of businesses that has been held back from coming to Petersburg, that has held back expansion and ministry growth is being released today and the new ministry will advance, the stronghold that is stopping its growth and expansion that today the stronghold ends and its demolished and we bring all these visions and dreams into reality, we will not go back from where we are but we will only advance, we have been called for more than what we have going and its time that the release happens. The staff and leadership would expand and that you would release the dreams and visions you have given to each of them. This day there is breakthrough, the manifest presence of God go to these areas and breakdown the beariers and open the flood gates and free this up in the spiritual realm to come into the natural realm and manifest with progress and that lives will be changes and converted and will not be held in bondage to finances or other natural blockages that would hinder their freedom.Freedom comes Lord and I learn my lesson as Pastor and overseer I will not let go or back down because there is too much at stake, this ministry deserves full time attention to this. I dedicate myself and my heart to pursue you with passion, with mission, with people at the for front of the vision, Lord its the kids, the teens, the families, the addicts the people coming from the prisons, those who have been abused by people and society that needs to see the hand of God. Lord help me to have vision and for thought and passion to fuel this. Add ministers, visionaries, leaders, missionaries, street evangelists and servants and those who are willing to put their hand to the plow. Lord give me the words to inspire, that get in the very hearts and let those words from you fuel the desire and the passion .

Father I circle this building and this vision, the new ministries and this heart for the NEXT that this church is about to step into and that the next be the focus and that we always remember that you have helped us thus far and your not leaving us in the next!
