Welcome to Ten Days of Prayer 2. We are so thankful that we can start this year with prayer. God has worked many miracles in past years as we sought Him in prayer and fasting. The Holy Spirit has wrought revival, conversions, renewed passion for evangelism, and healed relationships. Our church Northside SDA has been participating in the Ten Days of Prayer program for the past six years. This year our group gathered as usual to continue in. Truly, prayer is the birthplace of revival We believe your life and the lives of those you pray for will be changed as you join fellow church members in praying for the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, whom the Father has promised to give to those who ask Him. Read the responses of those who participated in the last Ten Days of Prayer. SHADRECK CHARUMBIRA. Thank you Our congregation has been revived, and we have witnessed great unity where there was once division. We have seen Christ in the heavenly sanctuary, and our prayer is to continue to abide in Him.

We started our program with a Sabbath of fasting and prayer, then Ten Days of Prayer began on Wednesday. We had a good membership attendance. In answer to our prayers, our local mission appointed a pastor for our congregation, after several years of not having one. Please pray for me and our little church. DANNY MOONIE, DES BARRAS, ST. LUCIA. Our church arranged for a bus to pick up church members nightly for Ten Days of Prayer. This particular driver had often brought members to our usual Sunday and Wednesday night services, then he would return to pick them up afterward. On the first night of our program, someone invited the driver to remain for the service. He did That night he went home and shared his experience with his fiance and encouraged her to attend the next night. They both attended the following evening and were present every night after. Toward the end of Ten Days of Prayer, they spoke with the first elder about their plans to marry soon and follow the Lord. Please keep them in prayer. Every night of these ten days was a blessing. We followed the nightly outline supplied, with the addition of one item. We read episodes from the Scriptures from the life of Christ from the Last Supper to the Resurrection. Every night was Spirit filled. There were nights when we had a total of 4. We felt the presence of God, and I know people were praying for us during that time. May God continue to pour out His Spirit on His church. DORIS JOHNSON, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA, USA. The Ten Days of Prayer was a blessing.

I prayed for the Lord to provide my school feesI had no idea where they would come from. We serve a living God My request was answered the second day, and I will forever praise the Lord for His faithfulness to His people. During Ten Days of Prayer 2. Old Testament high priest to see what we can learn for ourlives. We read in The. Desire of Ages Everything worn by the priest was to be whole and without blemish. By those beautiful official garments was represented the character of the great antitype, Jesus Christ. Nothing but perfection, in dress and attitude, in word and spirit, could be acceptable to God. He is holy, and His glory and perfection must be represented by the earthly service. Nothing but perfection could properly represent the sacredness of the heavenly service The Desire of Ages, p. Everything that the priest wore and did was intended to leave a certain impression upon the people Everything connected with the apparel and deportment of the priests was to be such as to impress the beholder with a sense of the holiness of God, the sacredness of His worship, and the purity required of those who came into His presence Patriarchs and Prophets, p. During these days of prayer, we will discover some spiritual lessons symbolized by the priests garments. SUGGESTED GUIDELINES FOR THE PRAYER TIMES. Keep your prayers shortjust a sentence or two on one topic. Then give others a turn. You can pray as many times as youd like, just as you talk in a conversation. Do not be afraid of silence, as it gives everyone time to listen to the Holy Spirit. Singing songs together as the Spirit leads is also a huge blessing. You do not need a piano for this singing acapella is fine. Rather than using up valuable prayer time talking about your prayer requests, simply pray them. Then others can also pray for your requests and claim promises for your need. Claiming the Promises. God has given us many promises in His Word. It is our privilege to claim them in our prayers. All His commandments and counsels are also promises. He would never ask from us something that we could not do in His strength. When we pray it is so easy to focus on our needs, our difficulties, our challengesand to wail and whine about our situation. This is not the purpose of prayer. Prayer is meant to strengthen our faith. That is why we encourage you to claim Gods promises in your prayer time. They will help you take your eyes off yourself and your weaknesses and set them on Jesus. It is by beholding Him that we become changed into His image. Every promise in the Word of God is for us. In your prayers, present the pledged word of Jehovah and by faith claim His promises. His word is the assurance that if you ask in faith, you will receive all spiritual blessings. Continue to ask, and you will receive exceeding abundantly above all that you ask or think In Heavenly Places, p. How can you claim His promises For instance, when praying for peace, you can claim. John 1. 4 2. 7 and say, Lord, You have told us in Your Word, Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. Give me the peace that You promised to leave with us. Thank the Lord that He is giving you peace, even though you may not feel it right then and there. We have created a document, Promises to Claim in Prayer, with different promises that you can claim. Have the promises nearby when you pray. Claim Gods promises in your private and public prayers. Fasting. We encourage you to do a Daniel Fast during these ten days. Starting the year with prayer and fasting is a great way to consecrate our lives to God for the upcoming year. Ellen White tells us, Now and onward till the close of time the people of God should be more earnest, more wide awake, not trusting in their own wisdom, but in the wisdom of their Leader. They should set aside days for fasting and prayer. Entire abstinence from foodmay not be required, but they should eat sparingly of the most simple food Counsels on Diet and Foods, pp. We know about Daniel, who ate fruits and vegetables for 1. We likewise encourage you to adopt a very simple diet during these ten days. A simple diet that leaves out sugar, processed and refined foods, and sodas can benefit us on different levels. First, eating simply means less time needed to prepare food and more time available to spend with the Lord. Faithful Friends Nursing Home Ministry.
