Fraternity of Spiritual Unity
Had a quite encouraging Prayer Meet with the CBD pastor's fellowship this morning.
We met at Ps Michael "s church (Melbourne International Fellowship) at 180 Russel St, forthnightly on Thursday.
Had a wonderful time of sharing and worship.
Victor shared from Joshua 17:16-18 - the sons of Joseph - the half tribes of Manasseh and Ephraim asked for more territories as they have faith. The Land of the Perizzites and Rephaites were given to them to conquer! Faith is the key - dare to ask for more for the kingdom.
Peter Kently shared about how he was walking down the street and saw 2 teenagers burning pieces of paper to amuse themselves. He was prompted by the Holy Spirit to blurt out " you don't get power from burning papers, You can get real power from the Fire of the Holy Spirit"!
They just turned around and asked - are you a believer? I just don't know what to believe now. Peter then just told them that he was an airline pilot for 37 years, having all over the world and he has seen believers of Jesus gave up what they do and gone preaching and doing things in the name of Jesus. The teenager's response was - I am a jew, but what you say seem just right for me. He then led them to the Lord in the sinner's prayer!
Michael shared about the Highrise Housing commission flats ministries called the "Stiches" and has seen several teenages prayed for and accepted the Lord infront of their Muslim garbed mums. Several places and blocks of flats are just as opened to the gospel. Much relationship has been built through many years (a decade) of building bridges. The enemy have infiltrated the inner suburbs with darkness, cultic and new age stuff, gross sins, drug addictions and perversions, but the church is to take the land back in the power of God's anointing and mandate.
Many historical factors of the city of Melbourne wre shared. We apologised and made spiritual restitution for the city's churches' disunity, the persecution of God's prophets by some churc hgroups etc.
All are factors that had hindered City wide revivals.
