TSA Western Territory Prayer Requests

2012-02-03T18:24:00.000-08:00

Aloha and Good morning Prayer Warriors!

Below please find this weeks "Call to Prayer"

There are some special prayer requests that Lt Colonel Morelock has listed below as well as the ones from your own community ohana.

As we begin the month of February may you be reminded of God's love for you. 1 John 4:19 - "We love because God first loved us."

God loves what He see's in you. He is flooded by emotions and overcomes with pride for who he has created. God say's to himself - "You are my child. I love you dearly. I'm aware that someday you'll turn from me and walk away. But I want you to know, I've already provided you a way back." - Max Lucado (In the Grip of Grace)

May you feel God's love for you as we share your concerns and prayers with Him today.

God bless!

Dear friends, Attached is the Call to Prayer list for February 2, 2012

Notice that we are being invited to pray for the Academy Awards and The Media on February 26, 2012. The Media and the Motion Picture Industry take a lot of criticism for their work and for their contribution to the moral decay of our nation. But have you ever thought of praying for them? Both groups of professionals are family men and women, just like we are, but there seems to be little guidance given to them for their coverage of the news, broadcasting, and film. How about our praying for them to reverse the decline of morality and goodness in the world? Payer is Powerful and you will be receiving information on how you can become part of the solution to bring America back to God.

Pray for all those on the attached list. Many testimonies relate the power of your prayers!

Blessings

Mervyn L. Morelock, Lt. Colonel

Brother's Beliefs

Please pray for one of our church people who has been struggling in understanding and accepting the Trinity. He has embraced a "different doctrine" about the Trinity, which is in conflict with Historical Christian Orthodoxy and especially with a couple of the Salvation Army doctrines. Two of us talked with him today and told him not to propagate his beliefs to others, especially to some of our church members. He said that he'll pray about it. May the Lord speak loudly to Him so that his spirit will be reawakened from his current misunderstanding. May the Lord help him through his "crisis of belief!" We told him that we love him and wants the best for him.

CALL TO PRAYER!

The Salvation Army Call to Prayer for December 29, 2011

Remember to thank God for the many who have given so generously to help the needy this Christmas. May God bless and touch them! “The reason for the Season?”…. It is Jesus!

Your Special Gift

What’s the most special gift you’ve ever received? Why was it special? Chances are this gift isn’t precious to your heart because it was expensive or unique. Instead it was likely something thoughtful from a person dear to you. Perhaps it met a need in a desperate time, brought comfort in a season of pain, or simply offered good memories of special times. The fact is, that our most cherished gifts are often those that come from the heart.

As Christians, we can offer such a gift every day, even to those we’ve never met. It’s the gift of intercession – seeking God’s aid on behalf of friends, strangers, and even enemies. Perhaps the greatest thing about intercession is that it doesn’t require any special talents or training, just a compassionate heart and a desire to see God make a difference in someone else’s life.

These Call to Prayer lists give each of us an opportunity to give the gift of prayer to those specially in need of our prayers. Give the gift of your prayer!

Aloha friends!

Below please find this weeks "Call to Prayer" from Lt Col Morelock.

The following scripture was taken from a devotional that I receive each day - "Daily Light on the Daily Path". May these words remind you of God's love for you during this Christmas time. May the rich blessings of this Advent Season be yours today.

December 16
Having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end.
I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which you have given me; for they are thine. And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them. I pray not that thou should take them out of the world, but that thou should keep them from the evil. They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. - Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends, if you do whatsoever I command you. - A new commandment I give unto you, That you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another.

He which has begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ. - Christ ... loved the church, and gave himself for it; that he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word.

John 13:1. John 17:9,10,15,16. John 15:9. John 15:13,14. John 13:34. Phi. 1:6. Eph. 5:25,26.

Please remember to pray for each of our corps in the division as well as our officers, who are busy with the seasonal appeal and activities.
"Take time to be aware that in the very midst of our busy preparations for the celebration of Christ’s birth in ancient Bethlehem, Christ is reborn in the Bethlehem's of our homes and daily lives. Take time, slow down, be still, be awake to the Divine Mystery that looks so common and so ordinary yet is wondrously present.
"An old abbot was fond of saying, ‘The devil is always the most active on the highest feast days.’
"The supreme trick of Old Scratch is to have us so busy decorating, preparing food, practicing music and cleaning in preparation for the feast of Christmas that we actually miss the coming of Christ. Hurt feelings, anger, impatience, injured egos—the list of clouds that busyness creates to blind us to the birth can be long, but it is familiar to us all."
Edward Hays, A Pilgrim’s Almanac

May we not be too busy to take time to enjoy the beauty of this Advent and Christmas season.

May that be our prayer today!

God bless!

NEWS RELEASE:
Weekly Meeting Surrounds the World in Prayer

SALVATIONISTS and friends from more than 80 countries have already signed up to take part in the weekly Worldwide Prayer Meeting launched on 1 September by General Linda Bond.

On the prayer meeting section of The Salvation Army's international website the General offers a personal invitation to join with her and the rest of the world in prayer for 30 minutes every Thursday morning, between 5am and 8am. She explains: 'Because The Salvation Army serves in so many different time zones it means that for all, or most, of Thursday the Army is at prayer.'

Participants from around the world can sign up through a link on the General's website, www.salvationarmy.org/thegeneral. They are asked to choose a time when they will agree to pray each Thursday.

The General will be providing specific prayer topics of an international nature. Everyone who has registered to pray will receive an email with these prayer subjects. The first topics seek prayers for The Salvation Army itself.

General Bond writes: 'The needs of your own corps, centres, and territorial activities and plans will form part of your prayer list ... For the weeks ahead, I am asking that you hold before the Lord the following:
1) The need to deepen our spiritual life personally and as a people of God
2) In this economic climate, financial resources for our worldwide mission
3) Renewed passion to bring people to Jesus and lead them to maturity in him
4) The courage and compassion to stand for and serve the marginalised.'

Salvation Army territories and commands responded to the initiative, organising their own prayer meetings. At the time of writing 670 people have registered through the worldwide prayer meeting website, including 170 who signed up during the first day of prayer on 1 September, in response to a tweet about the event on the International Headquarters Twitter feed (@TSA_IHQ).

International Headquarters [in London, UK] prayed from 7.30am until 8am. People already at the building gathered in the International Chapel, next to the General's office. The rest of the staff and officers were encouraged to pray at the same time, wherever they were – at home or on their way to work, in the car or on the bus or train.

The General hopes that soon there will be tens of thousands of people across the world praying together every Thursday. She says to all who take part: 'As we pray together across the Army world, I know the Lord will unite us in a special way as we seek his direction and blessing. Thank you for your partnership in prayer.'

Baby K. - We are so thankful for the new addition to our family. Please pray for a safe pregnancy for our little one and Lauren. We are thankful that we are being entered in to a program that will cover the cost of the baby as we don't have insurance. The Lord gave me a dream before Lauren and I were married. In the dream I was playing with a little girl that was about one. She had blond hair and blue eyes. The Lord spoke to me and told me she was my daughter and I was to name her Samantha which means "Listener" when I looked it up. I think that's appropriate for intercessor's kids. So if it's a girl that will be the scoop. Please pray that we will be patient, wise, and good parents.

Finances - The Lord has worked so many miracles and taken such good care of us. In the flesh it looks impossible to pay our bills literally every month and yet we're still here. Please pray with us that God would provide for us as we'll need something a little bigger than our 1 bedroom apartment.

Marriage - Please just continue to pray for Lauren and I as we are going through so many changes. We need wisdom we don't have on our own and we ask for God's blessing on our relationship. Please pray for me to be a good time manager and for us to be good spouses for each other.

May God Bless each of you this year and let us know how you are doing too. Thank you for your continued encouragement. We are very thankful for the relationships that we have with you!

-Andy K., House of Prayer Englewood Director.

Good morning!

Below, please find this weeks "Call to Prayer"

In just a couple of weeks, many of our young people will be starting school. Many changes will taking place within our families as summer draws to a close. Changes bring new challenges. Sometimes when we have challenges they feel like we're fighting a battle. Perhaps a Spiritual Battle?

As David fought the Philistine's (Giants) in his life, he knew that he could not do it without the strength of the Lord.

1 Samuel 17: 47 reminds us "...for the battle is the Lord's..."

We have this promise that no matter what challenges or battles we face, they all belong to the Lord. He will be there when we need Him the most.

I pray that you will continue to uplift those who are facing battles in areas of their perhaps with spiritual issues, health issues and relationships. We all need the prayer support of friends and family.

Please remember our new Officers in the division that have joined our Ohaha. As they begin their ministries they too will face challenges as they lead their corps and community ministries. Pray for them today!

May God richly bless you as you lift one another in daily prayer.

Blessings!

Major Shelley

General Eva Burrows (Rtd)

2011-05-04T13:52:00.001-07:00

Dear Friends,
General Eva Burrows (Rtd)

General Eva Burrows (Rtd) has been admitted to the Cabrini Hospital in Melbourne, Australia, and has been scheduled for heart bypass surgery on Thursday this week - 5th May 2011. She has been experiencing related symptoms for some time, and was admitted to hospital on Good Friday when the cause of this was diagnosed by a specialist cardiologist. It was quickly determined that surgical intervention was required to treat General Burrows' condition.

Reports reaching me from Melbourne indicate that General Burrows is in good spirits, and has the support of family and friends at this time. Naturally, she will be encouraged and feel further supported to know that the wider Army family around the world is lifting her name to the Lord in prayer, and I invite you to encourage salvationists, adherent members and friends to engage in such a ministry at this time.

Following surgery on Thursday, further word on General Burrows' progress will be shared with you from the office of the Chief of the Staff.

God bless you.

Sincerely,

Linda Bond
GENERAL

Tornado Disaster

2011-04-29T23:08:00.001-07:00

The following is from Justin Taylor (from his blog: between two worlds).

Justin Taylor|11:36 pm CT

How to Pray and Give for Disaster Relief in Alabama
Some guidance from David Platt and the Church at Brook Hills, on responding to the results of the deadliest tornadoes in the US since the Great Depression.

How to pray:

We mustn’t overlook the importance and benefit of prayer on behalf of individuals, families, and communities during circumstances like these. We ask that in your personal life, as well as in your family, your small group, or your church, that you pray intentionally, fervently, and continually according to the following needs…

•Pray that God will strengthen and give wisdom to emergency workers who are still working to find missing people.
•Pray for individuals who have lost family and friends through this storm. Pray that God will sustain them with His presence and strengthen them with His power.
•Pray for local churches in the affected areas. Pray that God will enable pastors and church leaders as they conduct funerals and minister to hurting families. Pray that God will grant His people grace to know how best to love and serve their communities.
•Pray that God will give wisdom to leaders of various organizations who are coordinating disaster relief across affected areas.
•Pray that God will shower these communities with His sovereign mercy and loving provision. Especially in light of this past Easter weekend, pray that people would know the God who is present in our pain and sovereign over our suffering.
And how to give:

New Zealand and Capt. Nigel

2011-02-24T14:09:00.000-08:00

As you follow the news reports coming in relative to the recent earthquake and continuing aftershocks in New Zealand, please remember our own Captain Nigel C. and his family in your prayers. Nigel is a native of New Zealand and his hometown is the area most severely impacted by these events. Thankfully, none of his family members have been injured but the overall impact on the community has been devastating with significant loss of life and dramatic property damage. The continuing aftershocks are especially unsettling to those living in the impacted areas.

For Nigel, being far away from family and friends as they endure these hardships is especially tough.

The Salvation Army is among the organizations heavily involved in responding to this disaster.

Thank you for keeping his family in you thoughts and prayers at this difficult time.

“Prayer is neither a reminder to God of what we need, as though He had forgotten us, nor is it a formal act of mere outward reverence to impress God by a ceremony. It really is an attitude of spirit to prepare us for what we need and to qualify us to receive what God has provided and also to express our gratitude to Him for His goodness.”

Western Bible Conference

2010-08-30T16:21:00.000-07:00

Last week, my wife and I, along with 500 folks from the Salvation Army gathered at Mount Hermon for a weeklong 'renewal' conference. It was such a fulfilling and exciting time, both personally and corporately. It was a mountaintop experience, in a spiritual sense. Now, we all have come home (back to the valley if you will). Will we continue to carry this flame that we have experienced, or go back to our old ways and routines? May it be not so! May we be filled on a regular basis to proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ! May we deepen our relationship with the Lord on our knees! May it be so! Amen!
