Week 28 - Victory Church - Tucson

Week 29 - Covenant of Grace
Desiring to have a week of 24/7 prayer was a little intimidating, but doubts soon gave way to excitement. As the week progressed most of us found that we desired more and more time with the Lord; that the night hours were precious and that one hour was not enough time with God. Change must take place if we are going to break out of our "religious" routines and decide that we must have the presence of God more than anything else we do.

Choosing to spend time in the presence of our Lord during our week of 24/7 prayer refreshed visions, reignited a desire to share God's love with others and more importantly, renewed us to our first love.. Jesus!

"Draw near to me and I will draw near to you." That is a promise of God that He will answer everytime. God showed up! - Charlotte White, Prayer Coordinator

Week 30 - Faith West Center Family Church

One thing I have desired of the Lord, that will I seek That I may dwell in the house of the Lord All the days of my life, To behold the beauty of the Lord, and to inquire in His temple...

Since the very first time I heard about AZ Prayer my spirit leaped with anticipation of being a part of it. To my delight my Pastor also had a heart for it. Being a small church it was a little overwhelming, however, our slots were completely filled before we even finished the torch passing on that first Friday night. We prayed, fasted and prepared the house of the Lord for Him to come and dwell among us, and He showed up well beyond our expectation. He captivated our entire congregation as we found our  Pastor and ourselves coming into the house of the Lord  and experiencing His Glory and staying for hours that turned into days. Lila Bejarano - Coordinator

What I believe that we are really experiencing is our reward of 8 consecutive years of prayer.  The Bible says "men ought to pray and not faint", and because I believe, Faith Center Family Church has prayed the price, our reward is a visitation of His Glory. 

"And the Priest could not enter the house of the Lord, because the glory of the Lord had filled the Lord's house" 2 Chron 7:2

Because I believe the glory of the latter house shall be greater than the former, the pepole of Faith Center Family Church joined me in putting the demand on the glory.We truly sought the heart beat of God.

"For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory"  2 Cor 4:17 The Hebrew word for glory is, Kah-vohd, meaning weighty, having substance, tangible and prosperous. The Greek word for glory is Dox-ahm meaning splendor, brightness, renown and fame. From my experience, God's glory may at times be described as the weighty, heavy and the thick anointing or the awesome presence of God. We have all experienced His glorious presence.  What I have found is that when the glory of God is manifested it is not only revelation of His reality but you will get a manifestation of His might and power as well.  The glory has been glorious.

"But we all... are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the spirit of the Lord" 2 Cor 3:18

God is leading His people from glory to glory (with ever increasing glory).

I am so glad that God has placed a portion of His glory on AZ Prayer & Light the Fire.  May His favor be your endorsement as we pray and change the nations.

We will never been the same. He has transformed our church our hearts our life's. In His Glory, Marie Mosley - Sr Pastor
