Nehemiah the prophet was a man of great faith and good relationship with God. Read the book of Nehemiah and you will see that in everything he does, he first prayed. This is the spirit we must all have now that camp is near, the Prayerful spirit.
Look at the world, the people ofthe world are rather good at organizing big big events and all of them turns out a great success. The B.R.A.T.S. can organizing great camps and outings and even appeared in the papers so many times. Now look back at us, we too organize events and camps every now and then. Aren't we the same with them? Yes but the difference between them and us is God in our activities.
This coming GY Camp shich is just right around the corner, nest week in fact! Wow so fast! We need to get urgent in our prayer!
Nehemiah 6:16 - When all our enemies heard about this, all the surrounding nations were afraid and lost their self -confidence, because they realized that this work has been done with the help of our God.
The verse above tells us that the rebuilding of the walls of Jerusalem was not only done by the people but also with the help of God. You see, there is God in their work, and that is why they saw the face of success! Although they received many, and I mean MANY opposition while in the midst of rebuilding the walls, they were able to go through it! Why?! Because God was with them! Nehemiah prayed and prayed and asked for God's hand over the work that they might prosper.
We can organize camps and all but if they are not ENFORCED BY PRAYER the camp goes in vain. We need to enforce, empower the things we do in order that God's hand might be upon it and we see victory. You may not realize it but in organizing this camp we are actually having a spiritual battle with the enemy, for he does not want this camp to see success, he wants it to go down in vain. So let's reverse it by enforcing this camp with prayer.
So people, let's get urgent about prayer. We do not want to organize this camp and then see no fruit, no result, and all goes down in vain. We want to see something happen! We want to see REVIVAL... We want to see more "Fishers" after camp... We want to see the youths get fired up... Let us pray...
Prayer meeting for camp will be held every Tuesday to Friday from 12pm to 1pm. Do make time and come united in prayer, for we believe this camp is going to cause an earthquake at the enemy's camp! Amen?!
Nehemiah 1:11
"O Lord, I pray, please let Your ear be attentive to the prayer of Your servant..."
