The Daily Text: We pray together.

Dear Rick, I want to thank you again for jumping into the Word of God with us on the Daily Text. As I noted before, our goal is to encourage you in the pursuit of an Awakening Life. We Read Together. We Pray Together. We Band Together. We Sow Together. I would like to focus this email on prayer. We pray together. Our Senior Advisor, Dr. David Thomas, is fond of reminding us, "Prayer is not the only thing we do, but it is the first thing." The connection between prayer and awakening, while mysterious, is undeniable. It is true at the level of our hearts, homes, churches, and cities. As the global pandemic settled on our land, the Spirit called us to an extraordinary expression of prayer: Unceasing prayer. Yes, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It began on Easter Sunday of 2020 and it has not stopped. We call it The Watch for Awakening. We have divided the year into seven watches of around fifty days each. Thousands of people have joined in, taking both solo and small group shifts. I want to encourage you to check it out here and consider trying a 30-minute slot. Every Wednesday at Noon Central we host what we call the ALL-CALL PRAYER MEETING. It's part of the Watch for Awakening. We meet via Zoom. It begins with a short teaching on prayer by me or one of our friends. We then breakout into smaller groups and pray for each other and for great awakening in every conceivable way. We close the meeting all together in a corporate session of powerful and often travailing prayer. It can get rowdy. I would love it if you would join us. Give it a try. You can Zoom in by clicking here each week at 12pm CT. Speaking of Wednesdays, it's our fast day. In the early church, and still today in many parts of the world where the church is thriving, to pray means to fast. Jesus assumed his followers would fast; albeit differently than other religions do it. A few years ago I became convicted about my own failure to fast. I decided to develop a challenge for myself and others that has now become a course. I send out an email every Tuesday morning full of guidance and encouragement on the basics of fasting. The Daily Text Fasting Challenge is to fast for 40 days over the course of 52 weeks. It is extremely grace filled and has helped so many people. The Daily Text Community fasts every Wednesday. You can sign up and get on-boarded here. There is no cost; at least monetarily. It will be life-changing. Fasting is an awakening accelerant. If you want to learn more about prayer, I wrote a Daily Text series on the subject which has been turned into a book. It will encourage your faith. You can get it here. Also, I would like to give you an electronic edition of our most popular Seedling. It's called, To Sow for a Great Awakening, by Dr. David Thomas. It is a teaching on the ancient practice of Travailing Prayer and its historic connection to great awakenings. Download it here. Jesus taught us to always pray and never give up. Indeed, it's why we pray together. And we want you to join us. Let me know if you have any questions or if I can help you in this pursuit. For the Awakening, J.D. Walt Sower-in-Chief seedbed.com
