Ephesians

Thu 29 Jan 2009, 7.30pm

The theme for tonight was spiritual warfare, and my goodness, there was a lot of warring going on. It was a power meeting, and everyone was totally spent at end, needing some time to soak in the Holy Spirit…and He came as a physical wind to cool us. Beautiful.

One thing I’ve really loved about these meetings is that I’ve never been really sure who in the team would be able to turn up given they are on every night, and tonight we had a totally different band with the exception of our drummer…and yet the flow was uninterrupted. This is team unity, and I’m extremely thankful for it.

Verses for tonight were from Colossians 4:2-4 and Ephesians 6:10-18, and the spiritual songs flowed from these as well, and at times almost as responses to the prayers which came from the people too. More came to pray using the lead mic than we’ve had at any meeting so far (I think around 15 people), while we had around 150 at the meeting again.

The song for the night was Hillsong’s Shout Unto God, and the two chords provided a foundation upon which declarations were made throughout the meeting.

We closed with a prayer circle and targetted warfare against a stronghold in our local area. It was, as our pastor said, probably the most powerful prayer meeting he’d ever attended in his life – and if you knew him you’d realise that was very significant.

Tomorrow is the last night, and I’m taking a rest while some of the younger worship leaders step up to lead the meeting – I can’t wait, I can’t wait, I can’t wait (I know, I’m a cracked record :)
