Don't forget the Armor...
Hey everyone!
As Josh said we must be doing a good job praying, because the spiritual warfare against us has increased dramatically. I want encourage you all to stand firm in the Lord and in the power of His might.
During one of my prayer times this week, the Lord brought me to Ephesians 6:10-20. I wanted to remind all of you of this passage:
"(10) Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. (11) Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. (12) For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. (13) Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. (14) Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, (15) and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. (16) In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. (17) Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. (18) And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints."
With all of this spiritual persecution going on, I wanted to remind all of you to remember to put on the Armor of God, so we can stand firm against the enemy. Blessings to you all, and have a great time praying!

March 2, 2010. 2:00 - 4:00 a.m.
Good Morning!
Well, we must be doing something right because the spiritual warfare is so intense! Last night during orchestra I came down sick with a flu in about two minutes and am now perfectly fine only 10 hours later. The evil one is after us! How cool is that?!
My prayer this morning:
Jesus, you are the one I love
You are my song in the night
I just want to be found loving you.
I just want to be found wanting you.
I just want to be found knowing you.
I just want to be found falling in love with you.
You put this hunger inside,
you put this longing in me.
Where can I find you?
I just want to love Your ways,
to hate what you hate,
to keep your commands
until the end.
My time with God is so potent now I just don't want to stop! Even in classes I find myself just worshiping and praying for his deliverance of this campus! The burden for this campus is so heavy on my heart! As I was sitting in the Student Center yesterday the Lord showed me what the campus really looks like spiritually. Even now I can't stop weeping over what I saw. There is so much death, so much hurt, so much damage, so much evil. We need a cleansing fire to sweep over this campus! We need a revival!
We are praying for God to bring more prayer warriors to pray with us during the next 39 days. God is already starting to move because of our prayers!

Greetings Brothers and sisters!
I'm starting this blog for the use of the body on the University of Missouri - St. Louis campus. This blog will serve two main purposes. First, for the 24/7 prayer team to share how God is moving and what God is doing during their prayer times. Second, for us to share with the global body of Christ what the Holy One is doing on this campus.
We ask all of our brothers and sisters not to just observe but to join with us is crying out for an Awakening on this campus and an outpouring of the Holy Spirit.
