God's Gonna Do It Again!!!

Few decades ago, there was a great revival that happened in UECP.  There was this two ladies from China who came to preach the gospel.  The evangelistic meetings started 7 days but it continued until it reach 21 days.  After that, UECP was never the same again.  UECP's number boosted a record high that until now is still the biggest Filipino-Chinese church in the country with the largest church worshippers.

It has been quite sometime that our number is more than a thousand.  It has kept going up and down but we were not able to breakthrough our mark.  Sometimes, it is frustrating because it seems all works are in vain.

I praise God for listening to our prayers for the past month.  It has been a month since we started our prayer meeting challenge.  Last week our prayer meeting attendance doubled from the average of 55 to 120 participants. Last night, we reached 150 participants.  We have not reached this number of prayer meeting participants since our church split last June 2000.

It seems God is going to do something to our church as we celebrate our 80th year.  He will bring revival.  All the more we need to come to pray for our church now.  We cannot allow our prayer meeting to plateau in a certain number or all of these things will fall into "just another church activity."

I personally hope that we reach 25% of the total Sunday worshippers by the end of the month and that is 300 church members coming to prayer meeting.  Thinking the 80/20 principle, if we have 300 as 20% then our church Sunday worshippers would have grown to 1,500.  If we have 500 as 20% then our church Sunday worshippers would have grown to 2,500.  Isn't this exciting?

I am very much excited how God is working in our church right now.  I believe God is gonna do it again; to bring revival in UECP.  I hope more and more church members would get excited in attending prayer meeting and stir up a spiritual revival among members of our church.

I also pray that those people who have not come to prayer meeting will reconsider so that if ever God started to act in a special way, they are part of it rather than left out.  I suddenly remember the 10 virgins in the Gospel.  Five were ready and five were not... I hope all are part of the five who are ready when the LORD stirs up UECP.

TO GOD BE ALL THE GLORY!!!

This Tuesday, we will prayer for the different needs of our family.  See you there!!!
