This morning we woke up early at 4.30 a.m. half an hour earlier than unusual. We wanted to join our comrades in the Prayer meeting at Territorial Headquarters at Bishan. We did our usual, exercise, devotions, breakfast then left home with Major Pasoce, Aux. Captains Raymond and Cathy Aloba for THQ. At that hour traffic was not heavy; we arrived at 7. 00 a.m.
The Prayer meeting was led by Major Pascoe, the Spiritual Life Developement Secretary. We began the meeting with a song of praise, "To God be the glory." She gave us some thoughts of Joshua 3: 1-17 and highlighted the following.
Verse 3 "When you see the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God and the Levitical priests carrying it, you are to move out from your positions and follow it. Then you will know which way to go, since you have never been this way." We all need a view of God's presence.
Verse 4 gives the reason. To know how to move forward into the future, never been to to morrow and only God knows the way.
Verse 5. 'Concentrate yourself' Make proper preparations in your own soul to approach God Who is holy.
Recognise God is holy and the only source of truth; then practise in your mind, emotions nd will the distinctiveness of God's truth.
Put yourself in God's hands so His glory, authority and power can be released and celebrated within you.
Prepare for the glory of God to shine through your faith and challenge.
Verse 17. In God's presence step out in faith.
We gathered in groups of four to pray for our territory and to pray for one another.
We have all been requested to participate in prayer every Thursday morning between the hours of 5.00am and 8.00am for at least half an hour.
Beginning 1 September 2011 come, join us at the THQ Chapel @ 20 Bishan Street 22, between 7.30am and 8.30am every Thursday to seek the Lord in prayer and intercede on behalf of our Territory and the Army around the world.
Do not miss the blessing of intercession!
