BUILDING A PRAYER WALL

BUILDING A PRAYER WALL

"I have set watchmen upon thy walls, O Jerusalem, which shall never hold their peace day nor night: ye that make mention of the LORD, keep not silence," Is. 62:6

   I was recently chatting with a strong woman of God, who I know has a powerful prayer life. She shared with me how she has a prayer wall (in her case it's on her door). Like me, she is a visual learner, I do better when I see something. Personally, I have a little prayer wall in my bedroom. As my husband and I pray, we glance on this wall and pray over those needs. There is something impactful though; when you see the face, map, picture and scripture that represents a prayer need. There is a focal point where we as intercessors can fully concert our prayers on. 
I asked Sheila Campbell to share her story and heart about prayer as well as her prayer wall.

I started writing a lot of "spiritual" and "awesome" words about intercession and prayer and such, but decided I would just make it simple for now.

I have the prayer door/wall because I forget. 

This area is a very small passage way between the kitchen and dining room. We have to pass through this area to get around the house and out the back door. It is the door to the basement so when I go down to do laundry I have to use that door. So, therefore, I cannot forget unless I go through it with my eyes closed. 

This area keeps me thinking about God and about souls. I see maps of areas God has put on my heart to pray for. I see pictures and words that remind me of why I placed these on this door. I would rather not know what is going on in the world, but since I do... I have an obligation to pray for His kingdom to come and will to be done. I feel like a receiver, that if I don't pray then something that God wants to do will not happen according to His will and in His timing. I believe that God puts it on peoples hearts to pray so that He can do something. 

I have had God speak to me about how, why and what fors and have read later that He has spoken it to others as well. God wants to "Totally Transform America" with Revival in the churches and place an Awakening in hearts far from Him. I have to believe that my prayers "accomplish much" for the kingdom. Plus, it makes me bolder when I talk with people about God. I also know that God has moved over this land and has found many faithful and has called many to intercede for this nation and for His people around the world.

Also a few years ago I woke up with the words "There is power in fear."  I decided then, I would not allow fear to have any power over me or my country. I decided that if I get fear in me I would pray until it was gone. God is love and that perfect love gets rid of fear. Fear is a spirit of the devil and he uses it to freeze people up from accomplishing anything for the Kingdom. I have to believe because the Word says that; "fervent prayer accomplishes much."
 I could go on and on and say more.
God answer the prayers of His people. Amen!

IDEAS FOR PRAYER WALLS

From the The Philanthropy Family 

At Solid Grounds Coffee Shop- Newton, IL Wendy Helm (owner) said; "Had a customer come in and ask why I didn't have a prayer board.. I said "I don't know, but I will have!" So I went to the back and got this out and put the Bling, Prayer Board on it.. was up that same day! now it's by the door.. every time I see it, I pray for all the needs.. it's been a big conversation piece and comfort for many.."

Luke 21:36 " Keep awake then and watch at all times [be discreet, attentive, and ready], praying that you may have the full strength and ability and be accounted worthy to escape all these things [taken together] that will take place, and to stand in the presence of the Son of Man."

The Healing Word

The Healing Word

  "He spoke the Word, and healed my disease; You are the Lord My Healer." Amen? Agreed? I love in God's Word when the Centurion ( a Roman military leader) beseeching healing for a servant boy; said here when he told Jesus; "But the centurion replied to Him, Lord, I am not worthy or fit to have You come under my roof; but only speak the word, and my servant boy will be cured." [Mat. 8:8] Somehow this man was deeply assured in WHO Jesus was and WHAT He was capable of doing, so much so that all Christ had to do was  just speak THE WORD! 

  In verse 10 Jesus remarks; "...I have not found so much faith as this with anyone, even in Israel." Wouldn't you like to have Jesus say that about you? I know I sure would. Oh that would be just the epitome of life itself (Jesus finding joy in me). In verse 13, we see that the boy was made whole at the exact moment Jesus spoke the Word. 

  His word, is the standard a banner which in the Hebrew was a dagal (pronounced "daw-gal" & was a troop or a garrison); against our enemy. [Is. 59:19] They are scattered and defeated by the Word of our Lord and God!

  God sends His Word to all His children and that includes we mama's; to speak His Word for healing and deliverance in order for so many to be saved from the door of death. [Ps.107:20]

  As we see so many who are in need of all kinds of miracles; let us gather together-open up our Holy Bibles and pray the promises God has already spoken. Speak them 'OUT-LOUD'...knowing the He is able and will do what He has ALREADY said He would do. 

  Speak His Word (with faith), in your prayers and to one another. He is our healer. This is everything!

                                             I AM THE GOD THAT HEALETH THEE
