Praying in the Wilderness...

8:39 AM by War Room 614

Had a great time this last week with some fellow warriors out in Sasquatch Provincial Park (and out in the torrential rain) living and laughing and praying. We prayed the Psalms together, mostly ones having to do with the peace of Israel and the blessings of family.

What grace, what sheer gift is family, both children and the extended family of community. The kingdom of God is meant to be a family. A couple of times on the camping trip we heard words to the effect of: "Wow, this is just like camping with my family, only without the yelling," or: "Wow, this is just like camping with my family, yelling included, but without the booze."

Life is messy. Family is messy. Prayer should be messy (not always pretty). Camping is certainly messy.

Grace,

Aaron

The War Room

For over 3 years 614 Vancouver has been carrying out a 24-7 prayer vigil in the DTES of Vancouver. One of the keys to the room is a book in which the intercessors write down what Yahweh is saying to them and through them.
The book is now this blog, both to save paper, and to let others who have been through our community or who are wanting to join us in prayer know what the LORD is saying to us as we listen for His direction. Grace
