all night youth prayer meet all right
It has been the most exciting event on our youth calendar so far. Nothing tops it when God comes down to be with us! We shared, prayed, sang, jumped, all the way until 4am. It is a breakthrough as none of us succumbed to sleep though people did trickle to the kitchen to get coffee and a short break. Most of the people remained in the chapel except for trips to the loo. The highlight of the night came when young people broke the fear barrier to come upfront to pray for their own family and friends, releasing love and forgiveness through their cries for healing and restoration. Nothing is more touching than seeing them getting honest and personal in their own words towards God, they went straight to the throne of grace and petitioned for breakthroughs. People were also in one heart and mind to support and encourage them in prayer and ministry. I felt the love, joy and peace of the Lord soaking the room as people poured their hearts unto Him. There was a connection with heaven that night. Words of encouragement filled the hearts of the people as they held each other up on prayer. I think I had witnessed the best reward a leader can ever have, when people had learnt to respond to God, realizing their need for Him and His grace and hang on to Him, discarding fear and shame. I am sure He will come and heal our land.
