On Friday, March 5, 2010, at 7 pm at The Sanctuary in St. Louis, Missouri, Dr. David K. Bernard was installed as the seventh general superintendent of the UPCI. The ceremony was blessed with a deep presence of the Holy Spirit from the moment it began until the closing prayer. While there was a certain solemnity, the service was by no means somber but moreover a joyous ambiance prevailed with moments of levity.

God-called intercessors are recognized by various characteristics they manifest over time. As we mentioned earlier, they are known because of their self-initiative. They are self-starters because their calling is to pray. Again, these men and women do not need a call from their pulpits to pray. Basically God calls some individuals to a deeper level of intercession.
These deeper level intercessors are also known by the "size" of their prayers. By that, we mean, the gamut...[more]

It is truly remarkable the vast number of intercessors that the Lord Jesus is raising up in this late hour of human history. There are a few characteristics that set these intercessors apart from the general crowd of "church as usual."
True God-called intercessors generally do not need a call from the pulpit to pray; they have already heard that call from the Holy Spirit because of their close intimate relationship to God. So, long before the pastor begs, implores, or asks for t...[more]

Far too often we Christian feel totally overwhelmed by world events that "seemingly" render us weak and powerless. However, the very events transpiring around us are indicative that God certainly is in control.
There are various ways Christians react to these prophetic events. One way to react to these current events is to barricade oneself off from the world as though nothing is happening. That kind of reaction may allow us...[more]

Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned,but have not love, it profits me nothing.
Love suffers long and is kind; lov...[more]

Where does revival begin? Some say it begins with the very worst sinner "in town" getting saved. They say that would shake the community. Perhaps. But according to God's word, the revival begins with the very best saint---not the worst sinner.
Now while that may appear to be surprising, don't be shocked when the "best saints" in church get stirred up in their heart, and begin giving themselves to more prayer and seeking the face of God. In fact we should more shocked if th...[more]

"Jesus, I am so proud of you" were the words that slipped from lips last week. All spiritual activities that manifest later in a physical way were first conceived in the womb of prayer and prayer rooms perhaps should be called prayer wombs.
Without even realizing what I had said, these words came from my lips last week, "I am so proud of You, Jesus!" What? I am so proud of you Jesus. Those are the words I spoke to Jesus in prayer. We have answers to prayer all ar...[more]

When I look over the personal prayer list for the World Network of Prayer I can associate a person with almost every name. Not because I personally know each person on the list but because I know people with the same name. Each person on the list has a face even though we don't know the exact face. This week when you pray over the list pray as if it was the Sean you know that needs healing .
If you want to see the products of your prayers look at the praise reports. Just this week the...[more]

It is the time of year in which many churches and individuals assume a fasting schedule of whatever proportions the pastors have established. Give God the first of anything be it money, time, schedule, resources or the first part of your new year and watch Him bless your efforts. "Seek ye first the kingdom of God . . . and all these things shall be added unto you." God likes to be first in our lives.
Prayer and fasting are the spiritual combination that we often...[more]

If it is worth prayer for, it certainly is worth writing down. Habakkuk 2:2 ". . . write the vision and make it plain upon tables that he may run that readeth it." (KJV)
Thank you for your robust response to the SPIRAL BOUND 3" x 5" index cards. They must be "spiral bound" and are easily attainable at any office supply store or Walmart. Some are even color coded for various groups you chose to pray for.
Write it down the prophet says! Place...[more]
