Praying and Expecting  Sheena Littlehale  16th May

Do you ever ask God for something and then forget what you asked for until He answers your prayer? In our first session of day two at the World Prayer Assembly, George Otis, Jr. said:

“We need to learn to expect what we ask for”. So often I am guilty of praying without expectation."

Sheena Littlehale is passionate American pray-er and part of the international prayer team for 24-7 Prayer helping to connect and resource prayer all over the world. Along with others from the movement Sheena is in Jakarta this week for the World Prayer Asembly. Sheena will be keeping us involved and informed this week with a series of live blogs.

Irish churches find unity through Prayer Rooms  Tash Creaney  16th May

In Prayer Rooms all across the world we find walls littered with familiar heart cries for loved ones, economies, dreams, hopes, thanks, joys and sorrows. Different places. Different people. Different languages. But the same God who loves and listens to our prayers. 

"My biggest hope for antrim is that every church in this town can find common ground and can come together in some way"

24-7 Antrim, Northern Ireland is a group of Christians who felt inspired by the simple idea of finding a room, gathering together and saturating that room in unbroken prayer. Years (and numerous prayer rooms) later, their story tells of prayer rooms in schools and on beaches; of churches uniting together and of a town still burning with a passion for God. This is their story, maybe it reads a little similar to yours….

Thousands Gather to Pray in Worlds Largest Muslim Nation  Sheena Littlehale  15th May

This week I’ve travelled nearly 7,000 miles to spend five days praying my heart out with 9,000 sweaty, but passionate, pray-ers from around the world.

But what do meals under tents, a group of women singing around a harp, and a prayer room on the 12th floor of an office building all have in common?

Some call it a virus - Video from Finland  Adam Heather  4th May

Last week we had the privilege of publishing a video blog from a Prayer Room run by the Loretto community in Austria. We added a little shout out asking for you to get in touch and let us know the stories of your prayer Room experiences. Janne from a community in Finland has been in touch with this brilliant 1-minute video, the translation reads something like "some call it a virus … others call it an accident…some believe that God planned it all"

Autobiography: a US 24-7 gathering  Adam Heather  3rd May

Where your story meets God's story and becomes a new story….

This year's 24-7 USA Midwest Gathering will be meeting June 14th-16th in Kansas City, Missourri. With the tagline "where your story meets God's story and becomes a new story…" it is set to be an exciting time for the 24-7 Prayer family to meet together and be encouraged by the stories of what God is doing across the planet while remembering our own stories, of how our lives have all been transformed by an encounter with God in prayer.

The heartbeat of the 24-7 Prayer movement is Prayer, Mission and Justice and so the weekend will be focussing on stories of God working in these areas through the movement. The gathering will be hosting some of the leaders of 24-7 Prayer from across the world to share about how God has weaved their lives into great adventures in the realms of prayer, mission and Justice. Their testimonies will invite us into the narrative of what the Father has been orchestrating in and through our shared lives for the past decade and give us insight into what he is doing now and for the future.
