Signs of a Growing Church Prayer & Unity Movement

12/10/2014

 
PictureFlood Warning Marks Area of Prayer Movement
By Tim Taylor, 12/10/2014
The picture on the left was provided by FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) warning the West Coast about the potential for flooding caused by rain.

Personally I find this fascinating.  Why? Because I have some knowledge about what Christ has been doing to connect prayer networks, churches and houses of prayer from northern California to Vancouver BC and beyond. I have seen the earth and heavens response to God's presence before when I used Operation Rolling Thunder to mobilize the Church in Washington state to pray 24/7 for 31 days. We saw 230+ churches in 12 counties participate in that historic prayer. Later we saw record rainfall such that FEMA declared 12 counties in Washington a federal disaster due to flooding. Guess which 12 counties?  In fact, King County mobilized twice the volume of prayer compared to the other counties and we saw them break every known rainfall record in history.  Why?  I submit:

Psalm 68:8-9
.... The heavens also dropped rain at the presence of God...


What is interesting about this flood warning is that I am part of a relatively unknown Pacific Northwest Strategic Prayer Council (PNWSPC). It is made up of leaders of prayer networks, houses of prayer, city reaching movements from Washington to northern California. God has begun to use this councils members to help facilitate more strategic connections with the body of Christ beginning with prayer. The FEMA map of the flood warning just so happens to cover the territory we represent.

In the last month I attended two significant meetings. The International Coalition of Apostolic Leaders(ICAL) in Dallas Texas and the City Impact Round Table (CIR) in Portland OR. At ICAL I met with leaders based in Vancouver BC who are leading the move to connect the prayer movement in Canada. At CIR Tom White hosted a meeting of church leaders from state capitals representing Olympia WA, Boise ID, Salem OR and Sacramento CA. At CIR a number of cities in this region also announced their intentions to do the 1Church1Day (previously known as Operation Rolling Thunder) strategy.  This flood warning covers the territories where these leaders are located and working. That's an amazing coincidence is it not? Or if I may use a term I've heard Peter Carlson say "a God-incidence." 
 
I've seen God do this in Washington, Florida and other locations as different leaders began to mobilize and connect the body of Christ. I've learned God uses signs like this to mark a message or to encourage us to continue to do what we are doing. Many of those signs and wonders are recorded in my book Operation Rolling Thunder - revised edition. I sincerely believe God wants us to continue to forge ahead for connecting the Church to pray city by city, county by county and state by state using the 1Church1Day strategy because:

Psalm 133: 1-3
Behold, how good and how pleasant it is For brethren to dwell together in unity!  It is like the precious oil upon the head, Running down on the beard, The beard of Aaron, Running down on the edge of his garments. It is like the dew of Hermon, Descending upon the mountains of Zion; For there the Lord commanded the blessing — Life forevermore. NKJV


John 17:20-21
"I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in Me through their word;  that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me. NKJV


Psalm 68:9 
You, O God, sent a plentiful rain, Whereby You confirmed Your inheritance, When it was weary. NKJV


Joel 2:23
Be glad then, you children of Zion, And rejoice in the Lord your God; For He has given you the former rain faithfully, And He will cause the rain to come down for you — The former rain, And the latter rain in the first month. NKJV


Joel 2:32
And it shall come to pass That whoever calls on the name of the Lord Shall be saved. For in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there shall be deliverance, As the Lord has said, Among the remnant whom the Lord calls. NKJV


Isa 56:7 
Even them I will bring to My holy mountain, And make them joyful in My house of prayer. Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices
Will be accepted on My altar; For My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations." NKJV

Tim! This exciting!! I saw the map and with out reading where it was from, my first thought was that you had plotted what we have learned about where the Prayer Movement is springing up! I also react to it similar to my mixed reactions as I learn more about the shemeta year: hard times ( flooding ) may come -- But this is going to bring GODS Glory!! I hope we can talk soon!! I appreciate all that you are seeing and doing! Are you appreciating what Church awakening is doing to build relationships and help support the leaders of small prayer efforts? We are all motivated to do our part; no matter what we call it. God has been speaking to us all for 20+ years and WE are living in an amazing season where our dreams are coming to fruition!! Praise GOD. And we have a lot of work to do !!!!

Yes this is exciting and yes I appreciate what Church Awakening is doing as well as all the others. As each prays and obeys, our Lord is building His house. Part of the context for me is the signs God has given to mark a message. What makes this significant is 75 other times we've recording creation responding to God's word. Many of those signs included record rainfall, flooding, unusual weather that confirmed the message. In this case at City Impact Round Table Eugene/Springfield OR (Lane CO) committed to the 1C1D strategy in 2015. Leaders in Albany, Corvallis and Salem followed with similar commitments and leaders from other cities throughout the NW committed to exploring this as well. A Church Awakening leader was there as well with leaders from the greater Seattle/King County area. In every city, there are already networks of leaders who have been working and pioneering for years. Everyone has value as they pray and obey. We need each one (network, organization, church, ministry) to fulfill their assignment (Eph 4:16), for without that we will all suffer. The reason I believe God marked 1C1D in this manner is because it is connecting these networks and organizations together strategically and He wants us to CONNECT, like in Ezekiel 37. I thank God for all Christ has done through you and the Church Awakening Team.

Amen to your response, Tim. Church Awakening is being used of the Lord in wonderful ways so frequently, that those closest to the action might not realize it sometimes :-). I am getting the impression that the revival/awakening that we have been praying for, heard prophesied, and are expecting now is coming in slowly increasing volume like water being brought to a boil. Thanks for pointing out this sign of the Lord's moving. Awaken Church and welcome Lord Jesus!

What you shared on the other acct. regarding our area is so true. A lot of work and PRAYER before we will ever have a break through. Tks. Tim Blessings Don
