Let God Arise!

26

LET GOD AR I SE!

But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable angels in festal gathering, and to the assembly of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven, and to a judge who is God of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect, and to Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks more graciously than the blood of Abel. Indeed, our first priority, above all else, is to seek the face of the Lord with all our hearts, to know him, and to make him alone our aim and goal in prayer. Adoration, Admission, and Availability The following descriptions of the various elements of a Let God Arise! prayer session represent a quick summary of the kind of praying and approach to God we propose to have. We need not be formulaic or wooden in our application, but offer the following merely as a kind of skeleton, a blueprint or road map to guide us along together as we seek God’s face and manifestation. Hope- fully these elements can give us practical direction as we gather in our homes and churches for prevailing prayer to the Lord. ~ Hebrews 12.22-24 (RSV)
