Pray for us that the message of the Lord may spread rapidly and be honored.
-- 2 Thessalonians 3:1
God has called me to give out His message. The name for this ministry has been a play on my initials, AGL,
because in Scripture angels are God’s messengers.
For the past several years, God has burdened my heart with His message to call His people to repentance,
revival, and a recommitment to serious prayer. Many of you have joined with me in one or more of our five online prayer
initiatives: 777: An Urgent Call to Prayer; 911: An Urgent Call to Pray for Jerusalem; Mayday! Mayday! A Distress Call for
Prayer; 911: A Recall to Pray for Jerusalem; and 111: Preprayer for the New Year.
It’s interesting to note that at the beginning of all things, in Genesis 1, God used prayer—the preparation of the
Spirit of God hovering over the waters of a formless, empty planet, and the proclamation of His Word—and God said—to
transform our world physically.1
At the center of all things, after the Cross, the resurrection, and the ascension of Jesus, His disciples prayed for
10 days. Then, on the day of Pentecost, Peter proclaimed God’s Word. Not only were 3,000 people saved on that one
day, but the Church was born.2 Once again our world was transformed, this time spiritually.
At the end of all things—which is where I believe we are today—the apostle Paul charges us to preach the Word.3
The apostle Peter exhorts us, when the end of all things is near, to be self-controlled so that you can pray.4
I have accepted Paul’s charge. I will continue to proclaim God’s messages from His Word, undergirded by AnGeL
Ministries. But in addition, Peter’s exhortation has reverberated in my heart. While I have never considered myself a
“prayer warrior,” and have even struggled with prayer in many ways, I have felt very compelled to pray, and to rally God’s
people to pray also.
In retrospect, I can see that all of this was God’s preparation for me to be the new Chairperson of the National
Day of Prayer Task Force. To confirm that this position was from God, like Daniel, I turned to the Lord God and pleaded
with him in prayer and petition, in fasting…5 God answered my prayer with a clear affirmation that this was His will. With
joy, and some trepidation, I accepted this position.
Now I’m on tiptoe in my spirit, filled with expectancy to see what God will do. In a unique way, I will do my best
to combine prayer and the proclamation of God’s Word in what I pray will be a powerful and effective movement of God’s
Spirit. Who knows? Perhaps, by God’s grace and mercy, once again we will see worldwide transformation. Maybe…just
maybe…God will use us to help prepare the hearts of His people for the return of the King.6
Please. Stand with me…on your knees. Pray for me as I give leadership to these two organizations. Pray for
God’s will to be done on earth as it is in Heaven.
For the glory of His Name…

Instruction
It’s been said that if you have all Word and no prayer, you dry up. And if you
have all prayer, and no Word, you flare up. But if you have prayer and the Word,
you grow up!
Read 2 Thessalonians 2:16-17

On whom is Paul’s confidence in prayer based?
Relate this confidence to that of Daniel in Daniel 9:4.
What personal experience does Paul refer to that undergirds his confidence?
How does Paul’s confidence affect the way he prays for others?
How is this similar also to Daniel 9:4; 9:9; 9:15a?
How is the Word and prayer combined in 2 Thessalonians 2:16-17?
Pray these two verses now for yourself, or for someone you love. Put
your name—or theirs—in the verses to make them more personal.
