Online! | EVENT: Maranatha Baptist Church - A Day of Prayer | | Saints,
I am going to be attending this day of prayer and I encourage anyone else in the area to come out and spend a day in intercession for revival in the land of America and beyond!
====
[b]Maranatha Baptist Church[/b]
A prayerless man is proud and independent, and any church that neglects corporate prayer is sadly no better.
Only God's humble and needy children take the time to pray.
Everyone else is just going through the motions and naively trusting in their own strength! David Smithers
For those with a burden to pray
On May 11th at 7pm we will tentatively be meeting at one of our church familys homes to pray and seek the face of God. There is the possibility of watching a video message on prayer. If a large amount of people come we will relocate to the camp which is nearby.
On May 12th at Baptist Hill Assembly Camp we will have a day of prayer.
Here is a tentative schedule:
7:00am - 8:30am Early Prayer
9:00am 12:00pm Prayer
12:00pm 1:30pm Break
1:30pm 3:00pm Prayer
3:00pm 4:00pm - Break
4:00pm 5:30pm Prayer
5:30pm 7:30pm Break
7:30pm 9:00pm Prayer
There will be times of corporate prayer and small group prayer. The focus will be on revival, our churches, our nation, lost souls, missions, and any other burdens that God lays on our hearts to intercede for. There may also be some singing and sharing time.
For those who want to spend the night Friday or Saturday night there is lodging available at Baptist Hill. The cost is $8 a night per person.
If you have any other questions please contact Don Courville at 417-864-3049 or email [email protected]

The men that will change the colleges and seminaries here represented are the men that will spend the most time alone with God
It takes time for the fires to burn. It takes time for God to draw near and for us to know that He is there. It takes time to assimilate His truth. You ask me, How much time? I do not know. I know it means time enough to forget time. - John R. Mott
To arouse one man or woman to the tremendous power of prayer for others, is worth more than the combined activity of a score of average Christians. - A. J. Gordon
"How terrible is the cost of robbing God of time for prayer. When we rob God of time for quiet, we are robbing Him of ourselves. It is only in the quiet that we can really know Him and know ourselves, and be sure that we give ourselves back to Him. Oh, for God's sake, do not risk keeping the windows of Heaven closed by robbing God of time." (Keswick 1946) Gordon M. Guinness
"Prayer alone will overcome the gigantic difficulties which confront the workers in every field." John R. Mott
"Satan does not care how many people read about prayer if only he can keep them from praying. When a church is truly convinced that prayer is where the action is, that church will so construct its corporate activities that the prayer program will have the highest priority." - Paul E. Billheimer
"Prayer does not enable us to do a greater work for God. Prayer is a greater work for God." - Thomas Chalmers
"Let me burn out for God. After all, whatever God may appoint, prayer is the great thing. Oh, that I may be a man of prayer!" - Henry Martyn

Brother,
I would love to visit with you and fellowship. Eli Brayley and myself will be driving back across the states on the way back up to Victoria , Canada. Perhaps we can connect at that time to do some ministry and have fellowship also.

| Re: | | I am looking forward to this day of prayer. We are starting out the evening of the 11th at 7pm at the camp with a very powerful video message on prayer by Doug Small. We will follow it with a time of intercessory prayer.
If anyone is planning on coming and staying at the camp Friday or Saturday night please let me know.
I was blessed and encouraged the other day as I read an article by Oliver Price (Bible Prayer Fellowship). Here are a few snippets from the article:
[i]"Prayer connects the church with the Lord Jesus Christ. No other religious leader can do it. He alone is able to fill His church with His own life and power, take control of it and run it from heaven. We all need prayer meeting for unity revival, evangelism and worship.
'The church is dying on its feet because it is not living on its knees,' the sign on a neighborhood church proclaims."[/i]
