Prayerwalker Journals

On my morning prayer-walk (winter is here - brrr), I was praying for motorists as they were passing by. As usual, this was done in an inconspicuous way. (I am still praying for the 1 million people in New Zealander to be saved. Since 6 November 2006, I have prayed for 115 157 motorists. (Distance walked: 876 km). I keep combined statistics here: Prayer and adwalks database It is about 2 months now since the Holy Spirit started prompting me to be sensitive while interceding for motorists, because He would lay on my heart specific things to pray for as specific people would pass by. Bearing into a light icy wind, as I was walking up a hill, with some vehicles passing by, I was in an instant struck by the words: "grace to forgive". I realised that, since I was praying in the spirit, it was a prompting of the Holy Spirit to pray that for someone. As I walked along, praying that for the person (only God knows who and why), I realised the profoundness of those words. It is in a way

It was still dark when I walked to the bus stop for the 2 hour journey to the starting point of today's prayer-walk. I felt impressed to pray: "Lord I pray for an open heaven" I said to the Lord that I didn't understand it, but I prayed it anyways. Just after I reached the bus stop, the rain started pouring down ... I feel this is very significant - almost prophetic. And then I started to sing " Send your po-o-o-wer Send your po-o-o-we-e-er oh Lo-o-o-ord Send your po-o-o-wer Send your po-o-o-we-e-er oh Lo-o-o-ord Send your po-o-o-wer oh Lo-o-o-ord my God " (repeat repeat repeat) The rain stopped a little while I was in the bus. While traveling, I felt convicted of the sinful state we, as mortal beings are in. And how we need to be cleansed by the blood of the Lamb on a daily basis. That was why it was important for me to just start this prayer-walk in right standing with God. And then, by grace can I come boldly to the throne to make prayers and petitions, p

A prayer-walk on the high places ... I will need hinds' feet "The LORD God is my strength, and he will make my feet like hinds' feet , and he will make me to walk upon mine high places." [Hab 3:19 (KJV)] Wednesday 23 May will see the sun rise, as it did for many many years, over the 53 volcanic sites in Auckland ... a city so ethnically diverse ... with 181 different ethnic groups. This day there will be prayer from 5 of those high places ... intercession for the people of New Zealand. Will you pray too? (Right there at your workplace, as the Holy Spirit reminds you of this prayer-walk ... and as you ask God to lead you in prayer for New Zealand) On this "Volcano-crawl" prayer-walk I will start from Onehunga Lagoon in the South, climbing up 5 (inactive) volcanoes along the way to Auckland's Viaduct Harbour. Along the way we find landmarks, significant in its own way for the direction of my prayers: One Tree Hill This 183 metre volcano has three craters a

After yesterday's meeting, I walked back and talked to God about what I felt He means to me as a Father. At this week's home group meeting we were reflecting on biblical references of how much He actually cares for and loves us. As I walked praying, I felt: Being convicted on how to respond to Father's love for me, and To seek Him in deeper and wider ways to understand, know and love Him more. I am awe-struck by His love for me ... but I am not so awe-struck by my love for Him!! If He then loves me so so so so so so so so so so so much!!! Howcome does my love for Him seem so small? So tiny compared to His love for me. He knows me as the One who knitted me together in my mother's womb, the One who knows me outwardly (how many fingers, arms, legs, toes, and even hair) the One who searches my heart and knows my every thought; ... yet I know so little of Him Even Moses, who spoke to God face to face asked Him (Ex33:13 AMP) " ... show me now Your way, that I may know Yo
