A Wagon Load of Prayers

This is from the Women’s Ministries- Unlimited site;  I liked it so I thought I would share it:

By Arlene Allen
Who ever heard of prayers being loaded in a wagon? It seems that a poor man who lived in the country had an accident and broke his leg, which meant he was laid up [...]

His Authority and His Presence

His authority on earth allows us to dare to go to all the nations. His authority in heaven gives us our only hope of success. And His presence with us  leaves us no other choice.”            - John Stott

"May God Intervene…"

“Just last month,  (a) conservative group sought prayers to stop … pro-abortion crusade.   “May God intervene to stop (a certain leader) from succeeding in this evil ambition to make abortion a ‘fundamental right’…”
They were praying over a man who has aggressively opposed family issues and has harassed pro-life centers as a government leader.
God answered their prayer.
You’ve probably [...]

When Mama Prays - Hudson Taylor

Eighteen-year-old Hudson Taylor wandered into his father’s library and read a gospel tract. He couldn’t shake off its message. Finally, falling to his knees, he accepted Christ as his Savior. Later, his mother, who had been away, returned home. When Hudson told her the good news, she said, ‘I already know. Ten days ago, the [...]

Four Men and A Missionary (Testimony on Prayer and Fasting)

The Few, The Faithful, The Intercessors

We ran into some important people yesterday.   Not too many achieve their distinction in life- they are ambassadors to the most revered and despised ruler known.   They take what they hear and know to this ruler then plead for life and grace, for blessings and mercy,  for protection and peace on behalf of others.
They are known to thousands and applauded [...]

Is Jesus all you need?

For the woman who has just been diagnosed with breast cancer- is Jesus all she needs?  Or does she need someone’s shoulder to cry on, arms to embrace her and a voice to intercede on her behalf?
For the husband who just lost his job due to downsizing- is Jesus all he needs?   Or does he need friends [...]
