Revival is Coming THROUGH Us!
Over the past month I have watched God move tremendously.
At the begining of October Eddie James Ministries visited ECU and Vision Caster Ministries October 6 – 8, 2008. 25+ students were saved Monday night at ECU at the Eddie James outreach. And believers from 10+ churches came together Tuesday and Wednesday night at Vision Caster with Eddie James – many prophetic words were released, teenagers were baptized in the Holy Spirit, etc.
That same Tuesday night, October 7th, there was a night of repentance and prayer for racial reconciliation at JH Rose High School.
There have been groups of students gathering together before church even starts to pray for their church. Worship has been carrying through the entire service and many are being healed.
Rick Pino, the founder of Fire Rain Ministries, came to Greenville on October 17th and 18th. While here he prophesied spiritual fertilityin the area according to Isaiah 54.
Many local congregations are beginning to feel the stir of the spirit and have started hosting prayer meetings. St. Paul Church is hosting prayer before their Sunday morning services; Open Door Ministries and Covenant United Methodist have established two different weekly prayer meetings. ECU students from Victory Campus Ministries are gathering almost every day at Greenville Christian Fellowship to pray for their campus. Vision Caster Ministries has mobilized their congregation to pray in shifts, covering nearly six days in 24 hour prayer.
Starting October 3rd many joined together in fasting, prayer and giving to see revival in Greenville. Since have many have continued to join. It is still not too late to join. Here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9lXYHXrpVo) Matthew Lilley explains the drive and purpose of this fasting and praying along with a lot more.
God has placed prayer on many peoples hearts across this area, across Greenville.
This Friday, October 31st, theBURN will take place.
The BURN is continuous ministry to God for the well-being of the city of Greenville especially for the downtown/campus area. Worship leaders, musicians and intercessors will be taking shifts to keep worship and prayer “burning” for 10 hours.
(The name BURN was borrowed from a worldwide day and night worship ministry called Burn 24/7 – see www. theburn247. com for more details on their ministry.)
Worship and prayer leaders who are involved come from various local churches and ministries including Vision Caster Ministries, 6:22 Ministries, Jarvis Memorial UMC, Greenville Christian Fellowship, Victory Campus Ministries, Collide Ministries, St. Peter’s Catholic Church, Potter’s Place Church of God and Open Door Ministries.
It will be taking place at Jarvis Memorial UMC in the youth area. For the schedule and more info go to http://www.prayforgreenville.org
Also coming up on November there will be a week of continous prayer on ECU campus. The prayer will start Sunday, November 9 at 6pm and last until the next Sunday, November 16 at the Baptist Campus Ministry. The week is sponsored by Campus Christian Fellowship, and these guys had no idea about Vision Casters’ House of Prayer or any of the other prayer movements in our region. They just started reading Red Moon Rising this summer and the Holy Spirit stirred them to do a week of prayer. Many campus ministries are teaming together to make this happen.
Join the week of prayer at ECU at http://www.247ecu.com. Consider fasting that whole week.
Personally I have seen many students feeling this movement in their hearts though they know nothing of what is going on.
Deligent prayer from people for years is now breaking down the strongholds here in Greenville.
This is my observation. This is my prayer.
Matthew Lilley has bloged several times on this. Go to http://www.xanga.com/worshiplikejesus to read his blog.
Join with me in prayer for our city.
Continue praying!
