100 days of prayer for the Lord’s present move in northern California 為著主在北加當前行動之百日禱告

北加已过周末有劳工节特会,负担是祷告为着神的行动。陈实弟兄从去年开始对北加有负担,所以常与当地圣徒有交通,盼望在当地兴起25到50岁在职青年。因为硅谷在当地,这些人才是主恢复的资产,这些人才需要起来,并兴起全时间服事者。因为目前中青年服事者有断层,所以盼望这一批人能够起来。最大的负担在祷告上,一切事从祷告开始。陈实弟兄交通到在以西结书第一章里风云火金带进四活物,同时行动的大轮在四活物旁边。神的行动如何从神的灵(大轮里面)到外面,唯一的联系就是四活物。神的心意能够达成,就是需要四活物,需要配搭、祷告。要来的一百天(从9月13号开始算),到今年冬季训练的前一天,刚好一百天。弟兄鼓励当地圣徒每一天都有祷告,每一天都有特定的祷告负担,当地圣徒两两三三每一天都有固定时间的祷告。当地圣徒非常响应,很进入负担,还制作了网站,有供应、有报名,可以在网站上签到,以便了解祷告的状况。心愿是兴起600-700个祷告小组。如果今年1200人祷告100天,我们可以想象会有何等的祝福。

To all the saints in the churches in northern California!

Through the Lord’s leading and much fellowship and prayer, we encourage all the saints to give themselves to 100 days of prayer for the Lord’s present move in northern California from September 13th to December 21st. The Lord’s blessing on His present move among us depends on our prayer, and we hope that each one of us will participate.

As a pattern to us, beginning on August 27, 1727 in Herrnhut, Germany, the Moravian brethren started a round-the-clock prayer time. Their prayer for personal revival and God’s move continued, uninterrupted, for over 100 years. Brother Lee spoke regarding this unprecedented 100 years of prayer in the book Serving According to Revelation:

“There is a need for saints to pray for the work in the church, the move of the church, and every detail related to the church. The condition of God’s house and of the brothers and sisters is borne upon the shoulders of praying saints. They uphold the Lord’s work and His spread, and they bring in His kingdom with prayer. Their prayers should be strong to touch God’s throne, shake the authority of darkness, bind what God has bound, and loose what God has loosed (Matt. 16:18-19). There are many aspects of service, but the service of prayer is urgently needed in all the churches.

The Moravian revival that occurred over two hundred years ago is an example. The Moravian brethren set up a prayer watch around the clock every day. When one group of people finished praying, another group continued. Every day from morning to evening, groups were praying unceasingly. It is no wonder that the Moravian Brethren sent more missionaries abroad in three decades than all the missions combined in the prior two centuries. I believe that this was the issue of long-term, watchful prayer. According to their statistics, one person was sent abroad to preach for every fifty-eight believers who remained at home, and for every person who believed in the Lord at home, two people believed into the Lord abroad… If a group of saints would devotedly pray for the preaching and the spread of the gospel, God would manifest His power and glory among us.” (pp. 15-16)

This is truly a pattern for us to follow and we pray that each one of us will be faithful to do so during the coming 100 days of prayer.


SEVEN TOPICS FOR PRAYER

Below are seven topics of prayer that we can pray for on each day of the week. These topics will be repeated weekly throughout the next 100 DAYS OF PRAYER.
