The women of College Church of Christ spent a beautiful weekend in Cambria, on the Central Coast, contemplating God's creation and learning a LOT about intercessory prayer from our speaker, Marci Bertalotto! I encourage you to ask one of our "moms" who attended, "What did you learn from this experience?"
I will give you a small snapshot of some of the lessons we learned this weekend:
- We are meant to live "in Christ" (that phrase is repeated 164 times in the Bible).
- We are meant to live in "Kingdom Order", which means we practice thinking, speaking and acting like God's royal children.
- We are co-heirs with Christ, which means we share equally in His inheritance of His Father's riches
- We have authority over evil--it has been granted to us by our Father, God.
- We can pray for one another and take authority over evil influences that may be holding our prayer partners captive to Satan's lies.
- To have an effective, active, healthy prayer life we must:
- A) Believe God is who is He says He is
- B) Believe God will do what He says He will do
- C) Constantly choose to believe we are who God says we are
- When we realign our lives to match "Kingdom Order" we will go from:
- Judgment-->Love
- Selfishness-->Giving
- Critical Spirit-->Grateful Heart
There's lots more! Just ask one of our "moms"--"What did you learn from this experience?"
