PREPARING FOR SEPTEMBER (PART 1)

# 09 SEPTEMBER 2010

PART ONE:   Background for informed intercession – then read Part Two:

September 2010 is a busy month in the heavenlies! The clash of Kingdoms is profound as Jews, Muslims and Hindus all have very special spiritual holy days and festivals. For most Christians our main celebration will be Labour Day, our last weekend to chill! For many 9/11 will have sober importance. However we should be on spiritual high alert to discern what is happening in the World today with wars and rumours of wars!

My burden is that the uniqueness of Christ be not neutralized or diminished in the World. He is the supreme Lord and Saviour, there is no other. In the cosmic battle, annual festivals, parades, fasting and worship rituals invite demonic power and… continued

GODLY VALUES IN SOCIETY

# 08 AUGUST 2010

When it goes well with the righteous, the city rejoices …

By the blessing of the upright a city is exalted … Proverbs 11:10-11 ESV

Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people. Proverbs 14:34 ESV

When a land transgresses, it has many rulers, but with a man of

understanding and knowledge, its stability will long continue. Proverbs 28:2 ESV

When good people come to power, everybody celebrates,

but when bad people rule, people stay in hiding. Proverbs 28:12 GNV

Canada is a blessed and prosperous nation and the last thing I want to do is to be a complaining Christian! Thank God for the civil infrastructure here in Burnaby, BC, that could respond quickly to a large grassfire near our town house complex last week and get it under control before disaster… continued

Last week a few of us from Montreal set up a 24-7 Prayer room for SOAR/SOMMET Montreal, an MBMSI 2 week urban mission experience for youth from across Canada. It’s been such a blessing to watch God move through this program for the past  five years.

I received the email below with a link to a video from Phill, the director of the program, today. Please continue to keep them and Montreal in your prayers as they finish up next week.

Our first week has gone incredibly well.   The teams are mature and ready to grow.  The training themes lead us through commitments to SHINE, know God’s love, praying with authority,  the Holy Spirit, sharing Jesus in parks, intercession, acts of peace and MORE!  Its been great.  The first afternoons, 120 of us spent time in acts of kindness, prayer walking, spiritual… continued

Thoughts on Prayer
Here we are almost  through July moving towards August like a steamroller, time is whizzing by and we will soon be into the busyness of fall activities yet how many of us are having a difficult time to enjoy the present.  Sometimes I wonder if God isn’t looking at us smiling and saying to Himself “I wonder where they got the idea to do that?”  That is if God ever wonders
The present is something to behold, enjoy and be fruitful in.   One of the greatest benefits of focusing on the present is we get away from striving about the future.
I believe God speaks to us in our times of enjoying His peace in our lives.  When we are outside His boundaries of peace our first objective should be to regain His peace.  I think we often get… continued

1 Timothy 2:1 & 2 Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence.

 Canada is a democratic society.  We vote in our government leaders and we vote them out.  This gives us the impression that we can vote out any leader that we want to, including our pastors and Spiritual leaders as well as our secular and domestic leaders.  What we often don’t realize is that the Kingdom of God is not a democracy.  According to Rom. 13:1 “For there is no authority except from God and the authorities that exist are appointed by God.”  God also says in His Word that “The king’s heart is in the… continued

THE YOUNGER GENERATIONS

JULY 2010

“We will tell the next generation the praiseworthy

deeds of the Lord, his power, and the

wonders he has done.”

Psalm 78:4 NIV

In this month of July we are praying for a move of God amongst children, teenagers and young adults. The Summer months of July and August are also the months when thousands of young people find Christ through church camps and special outreaches.

PRAY for these younger generations to know the Gospel as the power of God for salvation.

PRAY for them to experience the divine call of God upon their lives for life purpose.

PRAY for a release of giftings and anointings so that they can impact their peers.

PRAY that they will embrace a Kingdom culture that will overcome the attraction of the world.

PRAY for youth events in your Province/City that you know about.

One highlight in the West is the Rock The River… continued
