39 churches ... 1 hour ... 1 prayer

A new day will break on 15 October.
And it will be a new morning.
And ...
the mercies of the LORD will be new
... still fresh, as we start the prayerwalk.

I have one thing on my heart for this walk: it is to pray for unity among the 39 churches along the way. That they will step into peaceful and supportive relationships. That the bride of Christ will be ONE BRIDE ... and even as we worship in our different ways, we will be accepting towards other denominations. Loving and supportive of our fellow brothers and sisters in the Lord.

Join me in the spirit, as many of my dear friends do when I go on my prayerwalks, by praying with me on Sunday morning 09:40 for an hour.
The event is the Sir Barry Curtis 10km race. Even though I entered as a walker; I will be prayerwalking!
I am always humbled when I announce my prayerwalks, how people from all over the world let me know how they will be joining me (in the spirit - praying). Some even wheelchair bound, others already in their 80's.

So lets pray for Howick and Pakuranga in Auckland, New Zealand. Pray before the event and let me know what the Lord lays on your heart. We will stand together in that and pray that the Lord will bless this area. That He will draw people to Him in the coming days and that there will be a spiritual revival in this area.

If you live in this area, you are welcome to join me in prayer beyond the finish line at Pakuranga Athletics club (10.40am) or just by walking in the area. After I have finished (hopefully ending within the first 5 walkers!) I would love to meet you and pray with you. I dare you to go for a walk in your area or close to your church and pray. Just step out and do it. You will be blessed.

Howick and Pakuranga, a new day is coming. A new day, bringing with it the new morning, with fresh new mercies and compassions of our God.

Let's embrace that as we celebrate in His faithfulness and draw close to Him.

Lamentations 3:22-23 (KJV)
It is of the LORD's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.

The pastors-puzzle prayer-walk

Standing at the closed gate of Fisherman's Village, I needed to phone reception to open the gate. The sun was bright and I couldn't see the screen of my phone clearly. I pressed the wrong button and dialled the wrong number. William answered - he is one of two pastors who I met during a recent Holy Spirit conference - we were both delegates! It was good to hear his voice and we had a short chat. The gate opened and I entered the main office. There was a visitor - another delegate from the conference. The other of the two pastors whom I met at the conference! Both of the two pastors - not only brought to my remembrance, but brought into contact in person! How WOW is that ... Coincidence? I don't think so! ... and now I am inviting you to follow me online in my quest to see what God has in mind for me and the 2 pastor friends. Prayer-walking from William's house in Soweto to Pitso's place off the Dikhololo road on the other side of Brits. On the previous

"Ancient wells" Prayerwalk

After prayerwalking from Kimberley to Gariep dam with that profound first day spanning 66km to the centre of South Africa, Father laid on my heart to do another prayerwalk: Kimberley to Kuruman. To my question "What is in Kuruman", He answered I should do some research. Keeping in mind that the 66 books point to the bible and how I felt to pray that the bible will become central again. Actually more than central - the centre and the cornerstone in schools, business, government, and even many churches. Where Petrusburg was first founded in the middle of South Africa, the fountain dried up. The town was relocated to its current position 20 km away. The fountain in the middle of South Africa dried up! Kuruman, in the dry expanse of the Kalahari basin boasts an inexhaustible sweetwater fountain.  It has never dried out, even in the longest drought periods. It produces 20 million litres of water  daily. The first bible in Africa was p

13 Churches ... 13 August ... ONE Prayer

I am organising a prayerwalk through a local community. I have counted and included 13 churches on the route and we will pray for each church as we pass them by. The invitation I make to members of those churches is that if they feel the area needs prayer, they can join in at any of the sections on the route. There are various distances - ranging from 100 meters onwards. A real exciting thing in this is that they may meet someone from a different church who prays the same as they do. But the most exciting will be that we will go out onto the streets, walking and talking to the Lord. Some prayers are prayed just under our breath like a whisper, some just in our thoughts and some out loud and some even in song and some even just as the Holy Spirit leads us ... I encourage them just to come and pray as they feel comfortable. I tell you this because you can be part of this ... even though many of the names on this mailing list are in countries all over the world - we know the Lord is not b
