Seeking God Intensive Initiative

2 Chronicles 7:14 (KJV)If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

"This evening we seek the Lord for his agenda. We seek the Lord for His will for this time of seeking Him and his favor."

The above passage and statement began a time of intensively seeking God by the congregation of the Waverly Church of God of Prophecy (WCGP). After three weeks of seeking Him on each of the past three Sunday evenings (Oct. 2, 9, 16) at 5 pm until, we can give thanks and honor to Him for being present in our midst. The three weeks have realized a powerful move of the Holy Spirit as people have shared needs, desires, failures and sins and God's presence has overwhelmed us. We are thankful for an average of 13 being present to cry out to God, seek His face and turn from our wicked ways.

We believe He will, then, forgive our sin and heal "our" land. We continue to seek Him to open our hearts and minds to realize and receive godly repentance that leads to godly living and serving in Christ's vision and mission.

We thank all those who have given time in this prayer initiative. We anticipate and expect great and awesome things as we put God and His agenda alone on our prayer initiative.

Appreciation goes out to Stephen James for leading in this effort. May God be continually glorified!!!

Seeking God through prayer is one of our core values. We will continue this prayer initiative for the glory of God.
