My prayer journey- week 1

These are recollections of the way I was guided by the Holy Spirit to pray specific scriptures as an act of consecration. What did I seek to consecrate? Everything. Coming back to Lesotho after 7 months on the battlefield, I was so thankful and felt so incredibly blessed that I was ready to say: "Lord, use me in whatever way you choose".
The first thing I felt led to consecrate was the project at the Louis Gregory Centre in Mokhotlong. The Lord showed me how plentiful the harvest is there and how vital it is to attract labourers for Christ to this beautiful, peaceful, God-fearing community. But the mission centre is still considered "neutral territory" by the different denominational groups working in the international aid community. I realised that the Lord wanted me to "sound the trumpet" in other ways until the way is cleared to advance the gospel. After attending the annual Arts and Culture Festival in Morija, once a thriving evangelical centre and rich in history, I asked intercessors at a local church to pray for the monarchy of this country to be able to spread their influence through the charity projects they support and endorse- the Louis Gregory Centre being one of them. These prayers and reflections fall under the heading Enthroned.

The purpose of God's covenant with us is for Lord Jesus to be enthroned in our lives, in our neighbourhoods, in our cities, in our countries and eventually in the world around us.
To confess that having Lord Jesus as the master of my life is now being extended to my family, to the people I work with in Mokhotlong, to the nation of Lesotho and to all my contacts around the world, I devoted a week to reading, studying and meditating on the scriptures listed under the heading 'Enthroned.'

The verse I chose to memorize was Isaiah 52:2 : " Shake off your dust; Rise up, sit enthroned O Jerusalem. Free yourself from the chains on your neck, O captive Daughter of Zion".
