Prepare for the next prayer call Mon. eve. 1/30/2012 (tonight), Read Mark 3:6-19 + a continuing assingment

[Merle Weaver]

Dear fellow praying saints,

Greetings again to you in Jesus name. First of all an apology
for not getting this post out more timely. As we continue studying
through the Gospel
according to Saint Mark, studying the life of our Lord Jesus as it
relates to lessons in personal revival, in preparation for our next
prayer call, I would like for us to Read Mark 3:6-19, and meditate on
the same. Please come prepared to share anything the Lord lays on
your heart. If possible seek to share a lesson or point that has not
been mentioned in previous weeks.
We will give everyone who wishes to share, a 1-3 minutes
(+/-). This is not so much a teaching time, as a time of reflection
and testimony of what the Lord is teaching us.
Additionally, please come prepared (in prayer) to express one thing,
one focus, one task, that you believe God would have you focus on in
the following week, to labor on/in revival in your circle of friends/
influence. We will then together lift that up in prayer, both on the
call and
throughout the coming week and we will compare progress the following
week.
Love in Christ,
Merle W.

Brother Allen from Missouri forwarded the following message, which I
thought had some good encouragement. He suggested I might post it to
the group and thus I am doing that. If things get too quiet for too
long I will mention that, but I can usually see how many are on the
call and who hasn't prayed yet, so I want to make sure those that
don't speak as quick as some of the rest of us have plenty of
opportunity.

"As one who understands the burden placed upon a moderator, I want to
appeal to all those who will participate to be conscientious about the
requested time limit in sharing 1 to 3 minutes. No one takes pleasure
in addressing those who speak beyond the requested time alloted. It
is out of love for others and the moderators in particular that we
should place the repsonsibility upon ourselves to be mindful. The
moderators desire full and complete participation of as many as
possible, but when someone is not mindful, they have limited someone
else's ability to participate. Please practice the self-restraint of
love. Have a clock or watch at hand, and if you see 3 minutes is up,
begin immediately to wrap up your thoughts, even if it takes another
minute to do so.

Love to all and I must say that the last two weeks many more had
chances to pray, and this we are very thankful for.

Blessings,
