As the troop of us marched down the avenue in three groups of four, I’m sure our light toned skin stood out as not one of the normal passerbys. This morning’s prayer walk around San Juan allowed our intercessions and petitions to cover ½ of the city, and that only took us an hour and a half. Not the biggest city, but one with need for prayerful intervention for sure.

The LORD gave Corey this verse earlier in the week: “Unless the LORD builds the house, they labor in vain who build it.” (Psalm 127) As a leadership team we felt the HOLY SPIRIT leading us to re-submit everything to HIM, giving the reins to JESUS. “Lead us FATHER,” our hearts cried out!

So we moved out in faith and took our cries to the streets. Why declare our longing for HIS Kingdom to come from behind closed doors when you can proclaim it over an entire city? Our small remnant mobilized into three groups and began the perimeter march right after breakfast. Our focus was two fold: shaking the heavens with our declaration of CHRIST as KING, and allowing the FATHER to mold our hearts to HIS for this place and the people in it. These two verses got us going:

“Bless be the LORD my ROCK, who trains my hands for war, and my fingers for battle.”

Psalm 144

“When HE went ashore, HE saw a large crowd, and felt compassion for them and healed their sick.”

Matthew 14

Please join us in pleading before HIS throne, “FATHER, that YOUR Kingdom would come here in San Juan, teach us to fight with YOUR spiritual weapons, for our battle is not against flesh and blood. FATHER, infuse our hearts with YOUR sacrificial love for these people, may we be broken for them to know YOU as their SAVIOR.”

We have one half left to go, join us in prayer next Sunday at 10:00 am EST as we complete the covering over this city. Are you in?
