How should we work together?

I am meeting with a family today who has a missionary background, and has worked in a couple of countries outside the USA in ministry, and is praying about going back. In the meantime, they want to be involved in prayer ministry and we are discussing if they should be involved in a major way in helping to run the ministry center. We want to ask God if they are the right people to do it at this time. Please pray as we meet together and discuss the options that God will show us clearly if and how we should work together at the ministry center.

Dear Lord, please be with us as we discuss this possiblity of this family coming to take a significant role in the ministry center. We want people who are hungry for you, who have a good heart, and who have a hunger for righteousness and purity, for prayer and who are strong and stable spiritually. Please protect us from the wrong people coming and taking on important roles that could hinder your work. Please give us great wisdom. We are asking you Lord, are these the right people that you have brought for this? Please show us if and how to best work together to accomplish your purposes. In Jesus name, Amen!

Lord, please bring the people

Dear Lord, I thank you for the way you have given this ministry center. It is so much more than we ever expected, it's bigger and nicer than we ever thought it would be, and I thank you that we have the capacity to handle so many people. Now, Lord, we also thank you for the many people you have brought here and the way you have helped us in this work. Now, O Lord, we ask that you will make this a place of prayer, a place of deep worship in music and in holy lives being lived as sacrifices unto you, pleasing to you, acceptable to you. I pray, O Lord, that you will bring people who are willing to learn to live lives that are not conformed to this world, but lives that are transformed by the renewing of their minds, so that they will be able to test and approve what your will is, your good, perfect and pleasing will.
Lord, please bring the people here that are hungry for a place of 24x7 prayer, who are hungry for serious intercession for all nations, please bring people who are eager to be taught and loved and mentored as disciples of Jesus, who long to serve you with their whole heart, and who want to be used by you in this life more than anything else. Please bring faithful men and women who we can teach, and who will then go and teach others also throughout the world. Lord, I pray that this house will be a place of love, of truth, of learning, of holiness, of purity, of safety and healing, and a place where you Holy Spirit is moving and working deeply. O Lord, we are ready to take the next step with this ministry, and pray you will make people aware of what we are trying to do, all over the world, bring the right people Lord, and keep away those who would seek to destroy and dishearten your work in this place. In Jesus Name, Amen.

Praise the Lord! Storage Area!

Dear Lord, I praise you for the way you have continued to bless us as we seek to follow your leading and obey the vision we believe you have given us to be a place of refuge for your people, as well as a place of 24/7 prayer, of worship, of training missionaries and ministers of the gospel, and to be a center of missions and evangelism. Lord, please continue to bring the people that you want to be here. Please keep away the people that should not come, who might only try to hinder your work. Lord, I know there are many, many people out there who are longing for a place of authentic ministry, a place of authentic love, of authentic and zealous prayer for all nations, for righteousness and truth. I know there are many people out there, around the world, who are longing for a place where they can be mentored and trained in ministry and in walking in purity and holiness with you. Lord, please, at the proper time, bring the people in from all over the world, people who are humble, who are seeking to please you with all their lives, people who are teachable and who want to live lives of absolute purity and love and consecration to you, people who want to be true disciples of Jesus, denying themselves, taking up their cross daily, and walking with you. O God, please bring in the people at the proper time, and give them all the provision they need to come and stay here and become a part of this community.
Lord, I am so deeply grateful that you seem to be providing for us to have a place for storage, and for food storage for all the people that you bring here. Lord, I pray that you will be with us as we seek to build this place, and especially with all the harsh weather and snow that we are getting. Please allow the building materials to arrive safely and help the man who is clearing all the snow today to do a good job, and to be safe, and to make the place ready for the delivery of the materials, and also ready for the builders who will set up the garage. Lord, we pray that you will give great wisdom and guidance on the best way to build and arrange the garage, just as you have given such amazing guidance and you have built the main center for us. I also pray for the groups coming in a couple of weeks, help us to be all prepared to have the right food for them, and be able to help them as they seek you in prayer and plan for their ministry outreaches around the world. Please protect them as they come, and anoint their time as they seek you together in prayer and worship and teaching. In Jesus name, Amen! Thank you O God for your awesome faithfulness!!!!

Thank you Lord!

Dear Lord, I am so grateful for the way you have continued to provide for this place in so many ways! I thank you Lord that the building was completed this week for a garage and storage. Now, Lord, we pray that you will provide the food that we need to provide for all that you want to bring here. We look to you as our provider, the giver of every good gift. Lead us in your way, Amen!

Please pray about taxes due...

Dear Lord, we thank you again and again for the way you have provided and built this ministry center. You have brought the people with the right expertise and experience, and you have provided the materials and the resources all the time that we needed them. Now, Lord, we are facing these tax bills that we don't know how to pay. Lord, I pray that you will provide wisdom and favour with the tax authorities, that we will be able to work out a payment plan that we can do as fast as possible, and still keep the work going here. Lord, help us have the advocacy we need with a good CPA and anyone else, and lead with each of the people we talk to, and give us just the right words to say to help explain the situation accurately and give us mercy, Lord, so that we can pay these taxes faithfully and as quickly as possible. In Jesus name, Amen.

We look to you, Jehovah Jireh

Lord, you make it clear in the scriptures that you want us to trust you, and not to trust in money, or man, but in the living God. Lord, you want us to look to you every day for our daily bread, not to look at our bank account statement to see if we are doing OK. Lord, I confess that our sinful self wants to trust something as uncertain as money. But that is idolatry, and there is only one true and living God, you, the Lord Jehovah, the The Lord our provider. Lord, we thank you for the awesome way you continue to provide. Lord, I pray that you will help us, if it is your best will, to sell the land you gave us several years ago so that we can have all the provisions we need to care for all that you bring here. Lord, we want to obey you in your leading, and do what you give us to do, to take care of your people, and to be a place of 24 hour prayer and worship and to train missionaries to reach the least reached peoples of the world. Dear Lord, I pray that you will continue to provide as you have always provided. Thank you for bringing this person who is interested in buying the extra land, and I pray if it is best at this time, that they would be willing and able to buy the land for the right price, and it would give us the ability to continue to build this ministry center into all that you want it to be at this time. We thank you and ask for your continued provision in your perfect timing, and in any way you want to provide. We thank you for your goodness and grace and mercy and kindness to us. In Jesus name. Amen.

Frist step in mission

Hello.
I'm from Timisoara, Romania, a country from Eastern Europe. I am 24 years old, and I was born into a family that did not know terms like Jesus, Bible, believer, church, etc.. I grew up like almost any Romanian child in communist influences, educated with the rod, learn to cue, to not desire anything but to be first at school, in society, because it will be the only way I’ll be accepted and I will find my purpose in life.
One day my father, being an alcoholic and in desperation, came first in an evangelical church where he met God. Then mom, me and my brother met Christ. It did not resolved all our problems, but God came into our house and with Him entered the peace, joy, desire to please God and to make Him known.
I began to know God more and it came up in me the desire to serve Him in an active way. I understand that involves full-time availability, living in faith, intimacy with God and a lot of humility.
So I chose to come to Youth With A Mission at Discipleship Training School, and with the support of experienced teachers and missionaries, I got thoroughly into:
- to know God more and to learn about His nature: to develop an intimate relationship with Him, understand His salvation plan of mankind, to discover my gifts and identity in Christ, and to develop my character;
- to make Him known: gaining experience in local and international mission outreaches: evangelism through sports, working with children / young people, testimonies, practical work, involvement in church, etc..
We are in the 7th week of school, and besides daily study of the Word, we serve in different ways in groups of children from neighboring villages, small churches, programs with children in orphanages, worship and evangelism.
In April we plan to get involved in cross-cultural outreach for two months in Asia, in a country where the Gospel is forbidden. Here we serve in various projects of churches, with long term missionaries, on preyer walks, in English corners, evangelism, and serving in churches.
At the same time we have a lot of needs: money, faith, prayer intercessors.
Prayer needs:
• to grow in faith and trust in God’s promises
• for the time in school and mission, to have an open heart to understand God's specific plan for this period, to be efficient in these projects
• please pray for financial resources to cover school fees and mission, a total of 1900 euro. In 7 days I need to buy the plane ticket, around 600 euro
Please let me know if God put on your heart the desire to support me in anyway.
Let's "go and make disciples of all nations, let's" take the gospel to every creature "!
In the same Battle, in Christ,
Mihaela G.

Provide for this minister

Dear Lord, I pray that you will provide for Miha so she can go on the ministry outreach. You are the God of all Provision, and we pray you will give her what she needs to go on outreach in your name, and lead her in the ministry you have for her. Let her be a great minister of your love and mercy and compassion, make her into a deeply humble, beautiful reflection of you, a woman of all godly femininity that reveals the glory you intend, in Jesus name, Amen!

Lord, I pray they will approve the credit...

Dear Lord, I want to thank you for the US government offering a tax credit that will benefit this house of ministry. I thank you for Mr. Barry who has written a letter sending all the information to the the government, showing them how the house qualifies for the tax credit, and I pray you will lead the document just to the right person, who can see and understand everything that was sent and see that the house adequately and rightfully qualifies for the credit, so that it will save money for the work of the Kingdom. I pray, Lord, that this will quickly be behind us, and that you will help us with getting all the other taxes paid to the state, and get payment plans in place, and have it all paid as soon as possible, and help us get on with getting the food for all the people that you bring here, so we can be a haven of rest and safety for all who need it, and that it will be a place of 24x7 prayer for all nations. In Jesus name, Amen.

Thank you Lord!

Dear Lord, I want to thank you that the taxes owed to the state are so much less that I expected, and that they are letting us pay them in small installments! I also pray Lord that you will guide Mr. Holloway and Mr. Barry as they discuss the case for the house credit, and that it would be quickly approved, as it should save so much money for ministry purposes. Please help them see that the house qualifies for the credit, and that we can quickly move on in other things for the Kingdom. In Jesus name and for his sake and glory I pray. I also pray Lord that you will continue to bring the people that you want to come to the ministry center. I pray for this missionary family that is thinking of possibly coming, and that you will lead and provide what is needed for them if this is the right place and time for them to come. Speak to everyone involved on the best solution at this time for them. In Jesus name we pray.

Amen, and we praise you O Lord for your goodness and faithfulness and kindness to us in so many ways.

We also pray that you will lead us to the right insurance for the house, so that no money in any way gets into the hands of companies that support or sponsor abortion in any way. Show us the best insurance providers so that no money ever gets to abortion providers in any way. For the sake of the unborn we pray, and we pray that millions of people around the USA would stop using insurance companies or any other companies that support abortion either directly, or through the United Way that supports abortion by giving millions of dollars to Planned Parenthood, one of the largest providers of abortion in the world. We pray that companies will begin to suffer who sponsor United Way who sponsors abortion. We pray this in Jesus name.

Should we build a bigger training Center?

Dear Lord, I pray that you would make it clear if we should build a bigger training center. We thank you for the amazing way you have provided so much for us here where we can house and train 30 people at a time. Lord, I pray that you would give us wisdom if we should sell the training center to build a bigger one that can serve up to 70 people or more. Lord, you know what we need to provide for all the people you bring, and we were not expecting this recent inquiry about the possibility of selling. We thank you that you have given us land just down the road where we could build a bigger training center to handle more people and provide for them. Lord, I just pray that you will move and show us what is your best plan. We are very happy with what you have provided for us, and we continue to look to you for all provision. If this is your way of helping us to build a bigger center than can handle more people and provide for them, then we pray that you would make it clear and bring the people to buy for the best price possible so we can build a bigger center. Otherwise, Lord, we are very happy with what you have so amazingly given us for your service, and we pray you will continue to provide and bring the people who need the training and ministry and help us to give them the vision they need to be effective servants among the least reached peoples throughout the world, Amen!

Father, provide for all that this ministry's needs. Make Your intentions clear to them as to selling, moving and building bigger. You promised to give wisdom liberally when we asked for wisdom. So please supply wisdom and insight to this ministry team. Lead them in the plans You have for them. Let Your will be done in all things. Give them the opportunity to train more to minister for You. Send more to help if that is what is needed. Let them grow ever closer to You each day and love You more that all ministry may flow out of their relationship with You. In the Mighty Name of Jesus, amen.

Thanks for guidance

Lord, I thank you that you made it clear that we should not work with one of the families, and I pray your blessing on them as they continue to minister to you and many of your people. Continue to bless and lead them in Jesus name.

And Lord, we thank you for how you continue to provide for this ministry center, and we continue to pray you will send the people here that need to be here. Help us to provide the proper godly culture and community here that honors you and is a place of safety and healing and impartation of vision and spiritual gifts. We pray people will be nurtured here and grow in their commitment to walking with you. Protect us from the evil one, and those who want to destroy your work and your people. Help us follow the example of Zinzendorf and the moravians who were so committed to prayer, and evangelism, to confession and repentance and sent so many into the world to take the Gospel. Let us follow in their footsteps O Lord. Please provide the funds and the food that we need to provide for all those you bring here, and surround us with your angels, and help us to be prepared for all that you bring here, in Jesus name, Amen!

Thanks Lord for showing us where to get some food, and now we pray you will show us how to keep it, and give us the funds to prepare the place and the funds to buy it.

Lord, give us the right board of council

Dear Lord, I pray that you will show us the right people that we should approach to be members of the board that we are discussing. Please speak to us to show us who we should ask, and also speak to the hearts of those who should be a part of this board, and also keep away the people who should not be a part. Help us to keep our hearts and motives pure, not seeking for money or influence apart from holiness and godliness and spiritual power and faith in you. Dear Lord, this is such an important thing that will have implications for years to come, and will likely affect many people, so please help us to know who those people should be on the board, and then speak to them through us to understand your will in the matter. Please put together the perfect board with the right skills and gifts and spiritual maturity, and love and hope and experience and wisdom to make this ministry center all that you want it to be. In Jesus name, Amen.

Land sale & new rooms for the center.

Dear Lord, I praise you for the way you have been leading us so amazingly and providing for us over and over and over again. Your provision is so wonderful and you are such a merciful and loving God.

Lord, I pray as we show the other land today that if it is your will, it will sell for a good price so that we can continue to development the missionary training center. I pray that you will bring the right people, and speak to them about your will if they should buy the land, and show them how it can be used well. And I pray you will help us determine the best and fairest price for your kingdom, and that it will be a blessing to all involved.

I also pray that you will help us as we seek to develop an outreach and recruiting and support effort, to help get the center into a full-time prayer and missionary and evangelism training center. We long to reach out to the internationals in our area, and to demonstrate the love of Jesus in the prisons and among the poor and sick. O Lord, help us, I pray!

Lord, I thank you that there is a family that seems to want to help us expand the center by adding additional capacity by adding some more rooms to the building. Lord, I pray that you will lead in the process, just as you have led us through the whole construction and development of the center over the last six years. Lord, if this is the right thing at this time, please give us wisdom on how to design the new additional rooms, and show us the cheapest, easiest, fastest, and best way to design and build it. And I pray that you will provide all of the funds needed to complete it, and also bring just the right people to help us build it, with the right skills and godly attitude, people who need the income, but who also will do an excellent job, and that we will be able to finish the addition as soon as possible, well before other people arrive at the center. In Jesus name, we thank you and praise you Lord, and commit this project into your hands for your glory. In Jesus name, Amen!
