Not that God does not already know just how much we want him or don't want him...but sometimes our feelings follow our actions. I know that when I fast i start to want God more. It stirs something inside of me...a will to press deeper into the things of God. The same with an all night prayer meeting. When i make it a point to set aside the time i would normally sleep...and spend it seeking God..my spirit is stirred toward God. It's not about gaining his favor but about getting desperate for more of Him.
AMEN!

Re: All Night Prayer Meetings

one more point...lol

I love to fly fish. My girlfriend hates it. I like spending time with my girlfriend. On a couple of occasions i have taken her along and been so gracious to allow her to sit and watch me fly fish...

Guess what...she didnt much care for it. But..on the occasions i have sacrificed a day that i kinda wanted to go fishing to spend with her...it meant quite a bit to her. I think it means a lot to God when we will let something we enjoy go...just to spend time with him..to touch him.

Re: All Night Prayer Meetings

Love this song and it depicts perfectly the burden and call i have felt in my spirit lately.

And let me add...i don't think anything we can do really impresses God much. It's not in the fast or the all night prayer meeting. Its in the sincerity and earnest desire of a heart reaching for him that is manifested in those things that touches God.

I am now the king of run on sentences...

Not true. It is darker!

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

Quote from Ethel Goss (widow of 1st UPC Gen Supt. Howard Goss) book "The Winds of God"
