Floods on the dry ground


Dear Brothers,
I still feel very unworthy to be part of the Canton Prayer Union, but praise the Lord for it. It has become something very precious to me. "O God, make us all absolutely real with You and with each other."
Thank you, brothers for your blogs, for your prayers and for your fellowship in the gospel.
I would like to follow up what Steve said about praying for those who will be attending the conference, and especially the speakers. Pray against the attacks of Satan. The devil will be working overtime to destroy everything to do with this conference. So claim the protection of the blood of Jesus on yourselves, on all the speakers, on all the attenders, on all the travelling to and from the conference, and on all the arrangements. Bind "the strong man." Pray that the devil will have no influence, that he will not get even a toehold in, and that only the Lord Jesus will be exalted.Pray against pride in any form. Pray for Greg Gordon and all the speakers, that they will be kept humble before the Lord. Pray that they will think and live and prepare in the light of eternity.
"Lord, cause them to live pure, holy and simple lives before the world, that the evil one may find no occasion to trip them up. Instruct them so that they say only what You want them to say, and say it with passion and with tears. Lord, use them to start a fire that will never be put out, that will sweep across America and the Western world. Lord, we are tired of anaemic Christianity. We want to see reality. We want to see You in all your grace and glory and holiness. Lord we are thirsty, and the land is dry, and You have promised to pour water on him who is thirsty, and floods on the dry ground, so we stand on Your word, and claim Your promise. O Lord hear, O Lord forgive , O Lord, have mercy, and do a work in these days that will make people`s ears tingle.
"Once, in Romania, I saw the Lord do a work that I would not have believed was possible. He poured out His Spirit and did a work of conviction that I could never have done in a thousand years. Let us pray and believe that God will do a work at Canton that we would never believe if it was told us, a work so wonderful and amazing that only He can do; greater than anything seen before. "Lord, increase our faith."
Bound together with you in the name of Jesus
Alec
