Your new DNA: Proclamation

There's a new sound ringing across the globe; the sound of women ablaze with the glory of God. A good number of women from the NW Florida area attended the International Aglow Conference held last week in Louisville, Kentucky.

I love these highlights from the Saturday message delivered by Graham Cooke.

• You must see yourself as an overcomer and get into that lifestyle now.
• Don’t you love this recession? It means the enemy is running out of cash.
• Your intimacy with God is the most intimidating thing about you (to the Devil).
• The church is supposed to be saturated with majesty.
• Don’t be overwhelmed by the world — be overwhelmed with who God is.
• Stop praying like a widow and start praying like a bride.
• You are irresistible! Grow to understand your own irresistibility in God’s heart.
• Every problem comes with a provision attached to it.
• Look at life through the eyes of the goodness of God.
• A bride prays with 70% proclamation — only 30% petition.
• We (Aglow) have grown up through petition and are now in a season of proclamation. We won’t stop praying, but we will learn proclamation.
• God is retooling, reinventing and reshaping Aglow. Don’t let what you know get in the way of what you need to know.
• We’re a new sound!
• Start learning proclamation from your own journey — the things God has spoken to you need to come to pass in the next two to three years. Begin to proclaim “Lord, you said…” until it comes to pass.
• Your new DNA: Proclamation.

When God's People Pray...

Consider the resources that God sends our way when we pray! Aglow has numerous groups that pray together consistently. Some pray for Israel, some pray for their neighborhoods, city and our nation.

A friend of a friend, an intercessor for Polk County, took this picture just recently with her Blackberry phone. Her team was on the way to anoint an airport road in Bartow to set angels at the entrance. They are praying to take back their county for God and He saw fit to show them that they were not alone.

When we join our hearts together with vision and purpose, God pours out His power.

Please send an email to nwflaglow@gmail.com if you would like to get connected.

America, Bless God!

Happy Independence Day! Blessings to you and yours for a wonderful 4th of July.

I was inspired this morning to revisit a video clip that almost brings me to tears everytime I watch it. This clip lasts less than 2 minutes and is a replay of the National Anthem sung by five girls. You've never heard it performed better than this!

You could hear a pin drop in this arena filled with thousands of rowdy fans as the girls sang.

The two young ladies on the right are six years old.
The two in the middle are seven and the one on the left is eight.
