48 hour - Campout Details
See this previous post for how this is a part of 40 days of prayer and fasting culminating in a New England wide assembly.
We felt led to take 48 hours as 200,000+ students come into Boston to prepare the way for Jesus by seeking HIM through prayer, fasting and worship. We are trying to keep the church open the whole time (and we definitely will through Saturday 8am). We will update this blog as soon as we know the details for Saturday.
The scheduled events so far are:
Friday Multi-church prayer 7:30-9pm
Extended prayer & worship 9:30-11pm
Sunday Pre-service prayer 8-9:30am
Worship Service 10-noon
The rest of the time we will likely rotate between times of worship, prayer, prophecy, exhortation, personal devotions, and even rest. If you come, bring an instrument to help facilitate worship (if there is an opportunity) or even some bedding if you want to stay for an extended period and want to rest in some of the side rooms. You can text me on my cell phone if you have any questions. My whole family will be here for Friday night!

"There is a grace for prayer and fasting"
God has been speaking this to me all morning. This call is not about striving. If it seems burdensome, don't do it yet. I really believe God is releasing a supernatural grace and peace to pray and fast. The result is we will quickly be encountering the very real presence of God.
The Fire is Burning Once Again
Some of you will remember the last call and the results. Again, we ring the liberty bell calling Boston to awake. Let us gather this weekend to pray and fast. Surely, God will hear us.

Prayer
I am preparing to share a message in NH this weekend. God has really been all over the preparation. Hopefully, I will be able to get a recording of the message. For now, here are some snippets.
“Prayer begins by going vertical”
“Prayer is the intersection of two realities”
“Prayer causes the breakout of heaven on earth”
“Prayer nullifies the affects of sin”
“Prayer results in repentant living”

A Call to America - Lou Engle & the Call DC
Today, hundreds of thousands of young people across the nation will be calling out to God and repenting for the sins of our nations. Tens of thousands will be gathering at the mall in Washington DC to attend the Call DC founded by Lou Engle. I have met Lou, and he carries a zeal for prayer and a love for our nation that in unmatched by any one I know. He is sounding a prophetic call, "Can I nation be changed?" Watch this video to hear the word's of prophetic father calling a nation to repentance and a people to prayer and join them online at iworship...
"God break the rebellion and raise up a revolution."

Luke 10 - podcast
To listen click here.
Luke 10 is Jesus' instructions to his disciples on how to minister to lost communities. This message was born out of God speaking to me as I struggled with the lack of effectiveness in my own evangelistic efforts back in June. You can read about it here: "Evangelism = no great results, why?"
The model I see Jesus laying out contains six steps:
1) Pray out of heart of compassion (Mat. 9:36-38)
2) Go to lost communities
3) Enter into the social life of those communities
4) Stay there developing relationships
5) Heal the sick you meet
6) Tell them the "kingdom of God is near"
If you read Jesus' teaching in Luke 10:1-10 with his similiar teaching in Matthew 10:5-8, you get a fuller picturer of what a true disciple on mission should look like. It is more than a person making friends and sharing his story (although that is a key part) but a person filled with the very power and presence of God - healing the sick, casting out demons, and raising the dead.
Jesus restore our understanding of how to be missional within our culture, empower us to be witnesses to the ends of the earth!
