Lets cover the Clock with Prayer Warriors daily.

Recently many of us were in constant fervent prayer because of the
illness and complications from her operation that Bonnie Cook went
through after routine surgery. We believe this was allowed by G-d
for His glory and that the continual fervent prayers of so many of us
played a part in her improvement and will lead to her total recovery.
It was a bit frightening, and also overwhelming for Pastor George and
his family.
We also recently saw the wonderful answer to prayer for Thea McDonald
and the way she was given her sight back, and how the Most High
answered the need even down to the finances. None of us needs to be
told how the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much!
according to James 5:16. Many of us pray faithfully and constantly.
We at Full Life Living Waters, CTOMC, and the Nehemiah Center and
GodlyChat IRC get many urgent prayer requests for needs in the body of
Messiah. Some of us forget to check daily emailed updates and
boards, and sometimes mention a need in passing and then forget to get
it posted. Perhaps a prayer vigil (in addition to the times we do
faithfully pray alone or together) would be a sweet aroma to the
Throne of Grace and "avail much".
What we could do is circulate daily urgent prayer needs and each take
upon himself to set aside a block of time to pray daily for the needs
on the list. If there was an around the clock prayer vigil for the
urgent needs of the day that might release even more power from the G-
d who is indeed Adonai Refuah, the L-rd our Healer. And we would be
helping ourselves. A favorite verse that comes to mind is how
"G-d turned the captivity of Job when he prayed for his friends", Job
42:10.
We would like prayer warriors to pick a time each day that they could
set aside for prayer. We can have prayer going up 24/7 if we each
designate time to intercede for our brothers and sisters.
Instead of starting a new group, we are going to use Living Waters
Prayer group. We ask that you pass this email on to those you know
that would pray daily. Have them join http://groups.google.com/group/Living-Waters-Prayer
and post a time they will pray daily for the requests that come in.
When you pick a time please email the group and put Prayer Team Sign
Up in the Subject line of the email. We want the urgent prayers
covered, but also any other requests. But we would appreciate
coverage of the urgent requests. We are to look out for our brothers
and sisters. We are to look out for each other.
Thank you all in advance
