Praying for Europe

March Prayer Letter 2008
First Friday Fast

Join the First Friday Fast!
Christian leaders around the world have been observing the first Friday of each month as a day of fasting and prayer since the days of John Wesley. We want to join the First Friday Fast as a monthly day of corporate fasting and prayer by IPHC members around the world. It is a day to humble ourselves as we seek God together as a spiritual army linked in prayer for our outreach objectives and for the specific nation each of us calls home.
Make the first Friday of each month a day of prayer and fasting for the success of our global evangelism efforts. Intercede for your own nation and the accomplishment of designated goals set by the denomination, conferences, and local churches.
Suggestions for First Friday Fast involvement:
PRAY as a single believer, as a husband and wife team, with a prayer partner, in a prayer group, as a family, a church fellowship, or in community gathering.
FAST as a biblical way of “humbling” yourself, perhaps by skipping certain meals or by observing a 24-hour total fast.
The Bible shows that when God's people humble themselves, unite together, pray fervently, and fast in agreement, an incredible exponential prayer potential is released. The focus of this prayer potential is to honor God's desire and mandate (2 Chronicles 7:14; 1 Timothy 2:1-4) as we cry out for His help in defeating all our enemies (Isaiah 41:10, 13; Psalm 108:13, TLB). Let's believe together for God to strengthen our corporate potential to achieve global commitments for His honor. Let's trust Him to continue to empower us as we move forward to fulfill our calling in Christ Jesus.

PRAYING FOR: EUROPE AND THE MIDDLE EAST

Bob and Carol Cave Overseas Ministry Coordinator for Europe and the Middle East
Thank you Nancy for heading up WIN and we give thanks as I truly saw and felt the network in action. Thanks to our Lord and Savior because He does have us in is BIG Hands. As of today( Saturday March 1 ) Carol is doing much better. As Nancy reported she was discharged from the hospital on Monday and had such a bad night I had to take her back through Emergency on Tuesday morning.
Of course no emergency happens at a good time. Carol was in Canada looking after our grandchildren as our son and his wife took their first vacation alone since they married 17 years ago. I was in Ashburnham England at the British Pastors retreat so I took off right away and got in the next afternoon. I say all that to say that God gave us all a peace and was already taking care of things for which I give Him praise. Praise Him also for a good recovery.
Please remember Carol as she fully recovers and we get back on schedule next week in the North Carolina Global Outreach promotions.
Thanks to all of you..............Love ............Bob & Carol
