Praying over a city

Christy and myself believe that prayer and worship is a very important part of outreach. We believe that prayer or intercession allows us to understand God’s heart for a place, the people who live there and what it would be like for his kingdom to move in a place.

So during the recent outreach that we lead to the south of Spain we made sure we included this regularly in our time. On one of these occasions we felt that we should climb the mountain over looking the city in which we were ministering and spend time worshiping God and praying over the place. It was a beautiful day and we set of fairly early to get to the top.

It was a pretty amazing time, with all our prayers focusing on identity and freedom, and that Jesus would be know by the people. As we came back down it felt like we had done something very significant and special. Our time doing this helped us to see what God was doing in this part of Southern Spain, which helped us to better engage with the people we were talking with every day.
