prayer and twitter

We had a tremendous weekend at BCC and with the continuous ‘twitter-ing’ [www.twitter.com] I feel like I’m still in the City Gathering due to the volume of enthusiasm that is constantly communicated! In our modern era of communication we have to make the most of that which is in our hands! With the launch of www.ei.168.com this Wednesday (1st April) can I encourage you to engage in this revolution of prayer and join in the process of breeding a new generation of prayer warriors? With all the projects and ministries that we put out there, this is a MAJOR one. If you belong to this house, then www.ei168.com is for you. Please register, choose your allocation on the schedule and get typing your prayers, intercessions, scriptures and musings! This is a must! We have got to cover the house and city in continuous prayer! This coming month [April] we change focus and delve into the hearts and minds of the Minor Prophets! Our title for the month is Major on the Minors! We will have a top month and see the prophetic released. Let me encourage you to keep Jesus at the forefront of all that you do and make every opportunity count! Keep going for it James

Hey church

Hey church, 

 

 

‘The same power that raised Christ from the dead lives in YOU!’

I hope and pray that you are allowing these words to impregnate your heart and spirit as you release the champion within.
 
I am like a child on Christmas Eve at present as we await our next City Gathering. With the visit of Dave Gilpin (Hope City Church) we will have with us one of the leading pastors in the nation at present. I am unable to impress upon you the importance of being here this coming Sunday. This really is going to be special!
 
I also want you to take the opportunity to invite friends along. Many people ask about inviting friends along and this City Gathering is the one! Maybe you know someone who is a little frustrated, requires an injection of hope, needs Jesus or is even looking for a new church. This is the City Gathering to bring them along!
 
Please log onto www.ei168.com and register! We continue to build the site and soon there will be a schedule page where you will be able to choose the hour (or even hours!) that you will be interceding on behalf of the house and city! All we need is 168 people to commit to 1 hour per week or 84 commit to 2 hours per week or even 56 people to commit to 3 hours per week! We can do this! When this is up and running, invite everyone in your address book to be apart of this viral campaign to put prayer back in the hands of the Church and train a generation how important it is!

 

 
Below is a quote from an email I received from a member of the National Leadership Team of our denomination (AOG) for your encouragement. Notice how many times inspire is mentioned:
 
Dear James
 
Thank you so much for your time yesterday – I really appreciated your willingness and availability to be interviewed.
 
It was very informative for me and also very inspiring.  I do have the privilege of travelling and preaching widely and what you are doing is unique and inspiring.  It is fantastic to see a church engaging this generation so intentionally and strategically and at the same time holding to holiness and living as a distinct community that shines brightly in a dark world.  It is awesome and I was so inspired!  Paul and I will keep you in our prayers.  We need more churches like yours – authentic, Christ like models that tell the true story of our wonderful Jesus.
 
Keep bouncing and loving Jesus church and get ready for Sunday!
 
Love you guys,
