True Fasting and Prayer

It was a great time of fasting and praying these few days for me! On my last day of fasting(which was wed), i was just praying in the locker room during my lunch break for my oikos, for Radics, for ignyte ministry and 30mins just flew by and I couldn't even finish what I wanted to pray. Its amazing how God stirs up within us a burden for the things around us and shows us what to pray for as we declare our dependency on Him!

Some things to thank God for :)
1. Two people so far from my department have agreed to come for 4 ONE! (Though it must be noted that I must follow up on this. We all know how often people have something "cropped up" at the very last min)
2. One of my former jc section-mates, who backslided about a year ago, will most probably be coming back to ignyte service this weekend!

Let me elaborate on the second point :)
A few of us were hanging out in the office(in fact we were hiding from the watchful eye of our boss) and one of the guys plugged in his ipod. Then this guy called dino(pronounced dee-know) walked over and chose the song "Heart of Worship" and we started singing along hahaha. Actually come to think of it, all of us gathered there happened to be christians.
After about 2 mins, my old friend walked in and joined us. He chose the song "With All I am" and started reminiscing about the old times he was active in church, how he used to be an SP an how God spoke to him in his TAWG through this song.
At that very moment, I knew God was doing something special :)

I am just so filled with awe and wonder at the way God works in our daily lives. Lets not underestimate the power of prayer! Because when we call upon His name, pray against the work of the devil and intercede for our workplaces/schools, it paves the way for God to open the floodgates of heaven and do His work wherever we are!

"if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways. then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. Now my eyes will be open and my ears attentive to the prayers offered in this place." 2 Chronicles 7:14

If any of you have any other testimonies to share, feel free to post! :)
