Unstoppable Force pt.4

Prayer begets faith, faith begets love, and love begets service of the poor.

-Mother Teresa

This month I have found my prayer closet. It involves an iPod with worship music playing in my ears and walking around the house praying to the Lord. It doesn’t sound like much, but it’s a prayer closet nonetheless. I have learned over the years that prayer is key to bringing heaven to earth. There was an urgency in my spirit to pray because of the things I have seen this month (as you read in previous blog entries) that took me on a journey with the Lord. I began to ask questions that I never had a reason to ask before. My heart was awakened to see the injustice that I have been longing to see but never dared to open my eyes to before. 

I see a nation in turmoil.  I see a nation that doesn’t understand the Father’s heart of love. Tanzania is a nation that has distorted the image of God, a nation where the women are made to feel as if they are worthless creatures. They are a corrupted people, who take justice into their own greedy hands. They are a people who cannot see grace abounding around them, or that God hears their cries and will answer them too. What Tanzania need is prayer, people who will intercede on the behalf of the nation.

What I also see is a lack of teaching about demons and the spirit realm. There is a need for people to truly understand their authority and know how to cast out demons. There is a need for a freedom ministry, to bring deliverance and healing for the nation of Tanzania. There is a desperate need for counseling services, to bring hope to the countless women battered by their husbands so they can know there is a way out.

My question to you is this,

Do you understand that every single person in this world matters to God?          

                         That Christ’s love requires us to do something?

For Christ’s love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died. And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again.

-2 Corinthians 5:14-15, emphasis added 

In the words of Mother Teresa, “Love has no meaning if it isn’t shared. Love has to be put into action. You have to love without expectation, do something for love itself, not for what you may receive. Love in action is what gives us grace. We have been created for greater things…to love and to be loved. Love is love-to love a person without conditions, without any expectations. Small things, done in great love, bring joy and peace. To love, it is necessary to give. To give, it is necessary to be free from selfishness.”

Will you be a part of the unstoppable force that will break the silence of the enemy over this nation and over the world? Actions speak louder then words.
