Prayer Meeting - July

The following is my original plan on how to lead the prayer meeting. Except, I stumbled a lot and skipped things unintentionally.

Good morning everybody. Welcome to the Harvest LA prayer meeting. 

A little bit of more than one month ago. While I was driving to work in the morning. I said to myself "I should start to practice how to pray in English. Then I drove to work. 

When I got home after work I checked the message from Pastor Jacky about leading the prayer meeting, that's how I'm here today.

Let's pray.

Dear Heavenly Father, we praise you and we love you. Lord! You want us to pray continually and we call on you, my God, for you will answer us; turn your ear to us and hear our prayers. In Jesus name we pray, amen.

If you want me to share something about my prayer experience, Boy! that's hard, it's hard not because I don't have anything to share, but I have too many to share. To me prayer is like talking to my best friend and I can pray for anything at anytime. 

One time I woke up in the middle of the night from the pain on my left arm. I was tossing and turning it was so painful that I couldn't go back to sleep. So I started to scount the sheep. Just kidding! I started to pray. A prayer for the company that I work for. For those who don't know where I work. I work at an adult health day care center. And I started to pray for all the active members that come to our center one by one. It is more than 100 members that I prayed for. After I prayed for all of them. Guess what? I still couldn't go to sleep and I said to the Lord, You must be kidding, right? I meant I was exhausted and in pain. Unwilling I added on the coworkers to my prayer and the next thing I knew, I woke up to a brand new day and the pain was completely gone. 

Prayer is powerful.

Ok, let's start today's pray meeting, did everyone have the bulletin? Please open it and on the right hand side you can see there are two categories of prayer requests, one for EFCLA and the other one is pray for the people around the world. What I'm going to do is, I'll read out loud, one by one and in between every prayer request I'll leave around 30 seconds to 1 minute and I want to invite everyone to pray all together for that particular one, you can pray loudly, softly or silently. 

Let's close our prayer meeting. Dear Heavenly Father, we praise you and we love you, the prayer meeting is about to end please continue to be with us and bless us for the following services, we pray for the worship team, the presider, the speaker, for the congregations, Lord we pray You open our heart so we can know You more and have a deeper relationship with You. In Jesus name we pray, amen.

FM 100.3

This week I discovered a radio channel, FM100.3, it is a Christian channel, it plays a lot of Christian songs.

I am thinking if only I can install some speakers outside my car, so everyone can join me in worshiping.
