100 HOURS OF PRAYER FOR SBC

 Greetings,
"Who knoweth if He will return and repent, and leave a blessing behind Him; even a meat offering and a drink offering unto the Lord your God?"  Joel 2:14

"Who can tell if God will turn and repent, and turn away form His fierce anger, that we perish not?"  Jonah 3:9

This is a protracted and focused time of prayer for SBC life.  One can imagine the difficulties, in the 100 year prayer meeting of Zinzendorf, in the 1700's.  The 100 Hours of Prayer for SBC is not without its issues either.   But God calls us to be 'houses of prayer' and a people of prayer.  And God never does anything, till He sets His people to pray.  We are in a desperate plight for our nation, homes and future.  And the church is in an urgent need for a move of God upon us.   Therefore, this call to prayer is set before us now, August 7 - 11.

What do we hope to accomplish by this protracted & focused time of prayer?  It is found in the above 2 verses, 'who knows if God will turn and repent of the evil, that He said He would do our nation, cities, homes and churches.'   You are being asked to come broken & contrite before Him, and plead with Him, to do what only He can do.  Call upon Him for great things to be done that bring honor unto His kingdom and His Name sake.  

Our 3 prayer targets:
1.  Revival for God's church;  real revival is God's manifest Presence coming in a powerful way upon His people;  And there are many churches in America that are without the power of God, and the Presence of His Holy Spirit;  it is our greatest need in this hour.

2.  "Possess the land" - Deuteronomy 30;  Go in and possess it for His glory Name's sake; Psalm 2 - "Ask of Me, and I shall give thee the nations for Thy possession"; give us our cities, streets, homes, and the minds & hearts of men that are evil affected in these days;  Possess us, O Lord, take us and use us all of SBC life for Your glory;  

3.  A prayer for God to work in, and through SBC for His kingdoms will and ways.  'Finish the task";  Gospel to go to all nations, raise up within us laborers for the harvest, for it is white.  

During your 15 minute time slot, these are suggested prayer targets for us to be praying in agreement.  Of course, you may pray as you feel led.  You are accountable for the time slot that you signed up for. 

There are 400 time slots available.  We have sought from state conventions,  SBC seminary presidents & SBC entities, state executives, associational leaders, pastors, prayer leaders, churches, and individual members of SBC life to be a part of this.  With over 45,000 churches, we only need 1% to sign up; with over 1000 associations, under 1/2 to sign up to fill all the slots; but we will be hard pressed to fill up all the time slots.  So share and pass along to pastors and churches to be a part of this.  

Thank you for joining this call to prayer!  
"The hour is late, the need is great; pray so as to prevail."  

Until,

100 HOURS OF PRAYER - DEC. 2023

  Greetings, "Lord, what wilt Thou have me to do?" Acts 9:6 "And He said unto her, What wilt Thou?" Matthew 20:21 "And Jesus stood still, and called them, and said, What will ye that I shall do unto you?" Matthew 20:32 "When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, He saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole?" John 5:6 In the book of Acts, Saul has been confronted by the Lord Jesus on the road to Damascus. Upon hearing Who is speaking to him, Saul seeks instructions from the Lord, "What would You have me do?" How often Saul, later his name turned to Paul, would ask that same question before the Lord, 'Lord, where would You have me go? To whom would You have me speak? what would you have me do?' A surrendered Christian is always seeking to be obedient in all things of our spiritual walk. We too, will be found asking this same question, that we may be found in His will and ways. Perhaps, it w

Prayer Email - 100 Hours of Prayer for SBC - III

Greetings, "men ought always to pray, and not to faint."  Luke 18:1  In the last month, we have had a Solemn Assembly for our local churches; followed by '100 Hours of Prayer' for the local churches & many of you, my prayer partners on this prayer email joined us.  And now we come to this last protracted time of prayer, 100 Hours of Prayer for SBC.  God sets His people to pray for His purposes and His will to be done.  And yet, prayer is hard to find among the churches today.  Many know they should pray, but refuse to make time.  Many desire to pray better, but have no teaching on how to pray.  Neither are they around seasoned prayer warriors that can impart what they have learned.  And much of the evil and wickedness of today in our nation, cities and homes, is because, we, as God's people have ceased praying. A generation ago, you could hear and know of 'all night prayer meetings'.  Now, they are a rare diamond to find.  Among Wednesday night church
