Men's Neighborhood Prayer Group Reports


Let us all pray for the city of San Francisco!

The meeting reports are all powerful. The Power of the Holy Spirit with the momentum through years of prayer is making a tremendous difference. God's desire for San Francisco to be the light for the world (the victory has been won), Pastor's leadership, your prayers and leadership, are producing these results. Isaiah prophesied on Wednesday: San Francisco is won he also proclaimed getting together once a week for an hour of prayer.

The leaders are all under the anointing of the Holy Spirit. Let us stride forward in the victory!

Tonight's session was amazing, as we ended the session praying "earnestly" for each of the four men's groups, GT leadership, and most importantly, revival in SF!

After reading chapter 4 in the textbook (RA Torrey The Power of Prayer). I realized that my prayer life, at times, has been "profane." In some instances even "taking the name of God in vain." Furthermore, just to quote another excerpt out of chapter 4: "There is so little heart in them (prayer), so little intensity of desire for what is prayed, that there is no reason God should pay attention to them." Ouch! This chapter convicted me. It opened my eyes to the half hearted prayer I've been giving to God. We all know what God does to the "Luke warm" and the "half-hearted".

I want revival in SF, but it starts with me, you, and all the men participating,  being unified in our earnest and fervent prayers. This was the groups take away from this week.

1. We need to recognize what the "blood " had done for us, how it cleanses us! Thank you, Jesus!!!!

2. We need to enter into the presence of God BEFORE we start praying; seek the Holy Spirit to help us enter.

3. When we pray, we need to pray a prayer worthy to be laid at his feet. A prayer that is Whole-hearted, fervent and earnest is what, I believe God desires! We need to remember, that it is a "privilege" to be in the presence of God.

The men in ministry meeting, tonight, was awesome!  In attendance were 5 men (names with held).  We began the night with hot wings that were extremely hot. In fact, everyone’s face was red we were all sweating.  I guess it could be said: we were literally on fire.

The discussion was great there were, good balanced, contributions from everyone.  The first discussion point on “What can prayer do?” This led to Phil sharing a prayer victory when his brother showed up to Church yesterday for the first time.  According to Phil he had been praying for a long time that his brother would return to church.  In addition, Phil also said his sisters were asking for prayer and are rallying around him for strength and support during these difficult family times.

I continue to be spiritually encouraged by having () in the group I can tell it is rubbing off on everyone.  God is up to something in his life he knows it.  He shared that; he decided to come tonight because his girlfriend agreed to go to women’s Bible study at GT.  This was the first time she had gone he was excited about it.  Last week Jacob asked for prayer for more support in his new walk with Christ and more Christian friends.  He can sense the enemy trying to distract him. We lifted him up in prayer.  Even more powerful is his request for prayer, for strength in his personal life.  He knows that he needs to eliminate certain things in his life, as do we all.  This was difficult for him to share at first but felt relieved once he got it off his chest.  Praise God.

My goal is to invite him and his girlfriend to dinner in the next two weeks.

From another group: It is encouraging for the men to be praying their prayer list and experiencing the answer to their prayers.

  1. Any time partners utilize remedy, it is immediately after they've been disagreeing for weeks as well as several years and are seeking to remedy like a last location to save his or her romantic relationship Männergruppen
