I am reading a book by John Mulinde and Mark Daniel called, "Prayer Altars". It is based on the scripture in Genesis 17:14-18. It is about taking our nation back for God.
And the LORD said unto Abram, after that Lot was separated from him. Lift up now thine eyes, and look from the place where thou art northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward: For all the land which thou seest, to thee I will give it, and to thy seed for ever. And I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth: so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then shall thy seed also be numbered.
Arise, walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it, for I will give it unto thee. Then Abram removed his tent, and came and dwelt in the plain of Mamre, which is in Hebron, and built there an altar unto the LORD.
Genesis 13:14-18
How do we build a prayer altar? The altar is our hearts and the building of a prayer altar is something we can all do. First, we set apart a time each morning before the day begins and gather our family together. We begin by reading the Bible for 30 - 40 minutes together. If it is two people - husband and wife - the husband can begin reading Scripture - start wherever the Lord leads you - for the first 20 minutes and the wife reads along - then the wife picks up where the husband stopped reading and reads for the next 20 minutes while the husband reads along. Then put some praise and worship music on - and worship the LORD together singing praises unto Jesus - let the LORD lead you on how long you are in worship - it may be 10 minutes - 30 minutes - it may be an hour - now you are ready to begin praying to the LORD. Each person prays aloud to the LORD petitioning the LORD to heal our land, to raise up godly leaders, for salvation of loved ones, family members, co-workers, people that you know are not saved, healing, deliverance, whatever their needs may be. Make a commitment to the LORD that you are going to do this each day.
This can be done not only with families but with businesses, churches, communities, the idea is to share this with others so that prayer begins to cover the land from east, west, south and north.
As John Mulinde points out in his book, You will only find success in the physical realm after you have won the battle in the spiritual realm.
The tide of evil that is sweeping America is coming in like a flood. It is imperative that we begin to join forces in prayer to push back the powers of darkness and take back the ground the enemy has stolen. There is no better place to start than in ours home, our businesses and in our communities.
Why not try this for 90 days? Keep a journal and watch how God answers your prayers and record the results. This is something that you will not regret doing. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. So start tomorrow morning and let God know that you are preparing your heart to be His altar of prayer. That you are willing to surrender all to Him. Watch as He begins to kindle the fire of prayer in your lives!
