Day 1 of 10 Days Of Prayer January 2024

Day 1 Of 10 Days Of Prayer January 2024

Let’s begin the year committed to giving our strength to one another.

Romans 16:3-4 “Greet Priscilla and Aquila, my fellow workers in Christ Jesus. They risked their lives for me.”

Fellow Workers is the greek word synergós, compound word :— Co-laborer, Collaborator

SYNERGY  1+1 is always more than two.

“Coming together is a beginning, staying together is progress, and working together is success.” – Henry Ford

A great church is not built on the talent of a few but on the dedication and sacrifice of many.

Takes a growing team to transform a city.

Impact Church, we have an assignment. 2024 is a year of Exponential Growth!

I love this quote by John Maxwell: “Cooperation is working together agreeably… Collaboration is working together aggressively; and there’s a world of difference between those two.”

Working aggressively together we can achieve so much more.

Look at the multiplication that takes place when draft horses work together:

A single draft horse can pull a load up to 8,000 pounds.  The strength involved in this is hard to imagine.  So then we can speculate what would happen if we hooked up two draft horses to a load.

If you instantly thought two draft horses could pull 16,000 pounds if one draft horse can pull 8,000 pounds, you would be wrong.  Two draft horses pulling together cannot pull twice as much as one.  They can actually pull three times as much.  The two draft horses that can each pull 8,000 pounds alone can pull 24,000 pounds working together.

The horses are teaching us a very clear lesson in teamwork, but they still have more to teach us.  If the two horses that are pulling together have trained with one another and have worked together before, they can’t just pull three times as much working together as they can by themselves.  The two trained horses in tandem can actually pull 32,000 pounds, which is a load four times as heavy as either of the horses could pull by themselves. (World record of team in Belgium — 50,000 pounds)

The powerful lessons that these magnificent draft horses can teach us involves not only teamwork but coordinated and trained collaboration.

I’m so excited about the family that God is building at Impact London. Be prepared for a year of EXPONENTIAL growth!!!

Pray With Me:

Pray for God to make you fully aware of the wonderful authentic you. Ask Him to soak you in a deeper revelation of the Fathers love.

Pray for the Spirit of God to manifest in us the joy of COLLABORATION!

Pray for the understanding of all the wonderful benefits of placing Him before you (FIRST) in all things. Thank Him for the joy of partnering with Him in 2024. Joining with Him to bring the fulness of His kingdom in manifestation.

Confess that you are confident in His plans for you. He is always present, powerful, protecting and providing. Father I surrender to you the first fruits of my treasure, talent and time.

Confess that He has great plans for our IMPACT family. Proclaim growth and breakthrough in every area. Pray for those all realms of leadership that things will go well for us and we will experience His peace.

Listen to His voice. He is speaking to you. Agree with His word for you. Confess it boldly!!!

Thank you that in you Lord we will achieve an awesome level of collaboration that sets Impact Church on spiritual fire in ways we have never seen before. Lord free each one of us in the church to go far beyond our fears of participation and get totally involved in using our gifts and strengths to reach thousands of people with the good news about Jesus the Light of the World.

    Awesome. I’m praying that God will transform me, my husband and our marriage. I am praying Darryl will be filled with the Holy Spirit as he’s never experienced that. Praying for Impact, the congregation, the leaders, the visitors. Short but mighty sentence “Listen to His voice”
    Thank you and Amen.

    Father, may we individually and as a corporate body dwell in Your rich Presence, gaze upon Your beauty and inquire in Your temple each day of this year 2024. As we learn what it is to collaborate with You and with one another to further Your Kingdom on this earth, may You ignite our hearts and spirits with fresh fire, deep love, a desire for unity and strategies from heaven. May Impact Church London be a light on a hill, a beacon drawing people to You! We bless You and love You, Lord! Amen.

    In my prayer time over the holidays with the Lord concerning 2024 for our family, He told me, “2024 is your year for more”! He is as consistent as ever with the “Word” He’s given us the Impact family… “EXPONENTIAL GROWTH IN ALL AREAS”! 1 will put a thousand to flight, 2 will put ten thousand, WITH GOD ON OUR SIDE!! We are better together, we’re stronger together, and we accomplish MORE together!
