Maryland area sniper: A Call to Prayer and Fasting
10/15/2002 | MsLady

Posted on 10/15/2002 5:23:22 AM PDT by MsLady

Matthew 17:20-21 for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.

I would ask that all who will, not just pray but, also fast. This helps in getting G- d's attention and also shows that you really mean it. Make sure you do it with a right heart. Wanting to get closer to G-d, seek his face. If you read in the bible there were many times when something really bad was going on the people were called to fast and pray. The early Christians did this often, but, today most don't. I would again ask that all who would, and who can, please fast and pray. The easiest fast is the dusk to dusk or say from 6:00 this evening, or whatever evening you chose, to 6:00 the following evening. If you have a medical condition that won't allow you to do this, then you can also just give up a favorite food.

If you want to read up a little on fasting and prayer go to: http://www.billbright.com/7steps/

Sorry I don't know how to make a link.

I have been praying fervently about this who situation, though I do not live there. It could just as easily have been my community. I am calling upon El Roi - the God Who Sees. He knows the whereabouts of this killer(s) and we must prevail in prayer for Him to reveal/expose that location.

G-d bless!!! I have family who lives there and I was raised in the area that the shooting first started at. The police station where the first shooting happened is about 1 mile away from the home I was raised in. And right down the street from the church I use to attend.

Robin, to make a link just type:

<A HREF="http://www.billbright.com/7steps/">http://www.billbright.com/7steps/</A>

In case the above line gets wrapped in your browser, the HTML code immediately following the first < is:

A HREF="

Also, remember to enclose the URL you are linking with full quotation marks. If you want to have a name or other description display, instead of the URL, you need to replace the second appearance of the URL above with whatever you want to be displayed.

Try it, you'll find it easy. Really.

2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
