This week at my school, we have has a leadership camp and it has been awesome! But today was the last day, and one of our speakers, Kevin Brownfield, spoke on prayer. Let me tell you, I have never heard a sermon so good. But there was something different about his sermon. See, it convicted the fire out of me, but it also inspired me-it gave me a passion and a desire to make a change. He spoke on having a dynamic prayer life. Now, I can honestly say my prayer life is anything but dynamic-in fact, it is more stagnant. So we he said he was going to be speaking on prayer I was already convicted. But I think the thing that stuck out to me the most was one statement he made. He said, “I believe nation-wide revival can start right here in Faith Christian School.” Now, I was thinking maybe we could revive our school, and maybe even our town..but I never thought about nation-wide. However, prayer is a powerful weapon and I truely believe that if each and every one of us will desire a dynamic prayer life-we could start a revival. Yeah, it’s gonna cost us something, it’s gonna take time, effort, sacrifice-but wouldn’t it be worth it? And even if we don’t start a nation-wide revival, I am definately changing my prayer life..no more stagnant pond..it’s gonna be a rushing waterfall.:) I am so on fire and ready to tackle Satan head on. I have God on my side, and the best friends anyone could ask for. And I hope and pray that you will tackle this whole issue too. Look at our own prayer life-is it what it could and should be?
Just a thought..more to come later..

Thanks Amanda. Your post is a challenge to us all to get our prayer lives sorted out. Prayer certainly is powerful.
