Wow, I am humbled and challenged. I was in a Zoom prayer last night with two key prayer leaders, and at the end of out time, found myself praying through the Lord's (the disciples) Prayer, unplanned, and led into the strategic and spiritual realms that this prayer addresses, with respect to the Canadian culture and government and church. I am committed to theological prayer and intercession that positions the holiness and rule and reign of God over all. Thanks Sara for your commitment to this prayer, daily . . . Quite a discipline!

It refines my expectations for him meeting my needs and granting provision in an area to him granting to me in a way that edifies the body as a whole, not just me. It makes me think of Lazarus, that when Jesus heard he was sick he stayed longer where he was. Abs Lazarus died. But his “delay” (as we perceive it) was not neglect or indifference but his mind was set on the Father’s heart and will: that many more should believe. Jesus knew resurrection power breaks through the greatest of human limitations, namely, death, time and geography/space. Late is not late. Geography no longer limits us touching the risen Lord, and death becomes the gateway to true life.

So thank you, because this morning there was repentance that took
