A Word From Brother Andre'


We all know what a harvest is. It is a time of gathering the crops that have matured enough to be ready to eat or sell. Spiritually, a harvest is a time of gathering the souls that God has brought to Himself. It is a time of joining God in making disciples. As God brings revival to the hearts of His children, we will be in the correct mindset to join Him in the harvest. Our nation, our state, our church, you, and I are in need of a Holy Spirit revival. God has led me to lead our church into 30 Days of Prayer for Harvest leading up to our weekend Harvest Crusade August 3-5, 2012. Our primary focus needs to be on experiencing true revival personally and joining God in making disciples of those around us. This prayer guide is provided to help you prepare for both. Our first day of this prayer guide begins July 8 and continues through the day after our weekend Harvest Crusade ends August 6.

Day 1: July 8, 2012

focusDistractions are all around you, but so am I. Focus on Me rather than the distractions. To do this, I must be most important to you and you must be engulfed in being in My presence. When you are reading your favorite book or section of the newspaper, you drown out everything else around you—including people who are special to you. You hardly notice the other activities going on because you are doing something you enjoy. I want you to so enjoy being with Me that everything else fades away and it is just you and Me. Sometimes you may need to go to a quiet place to help remove distractions; however, My desire is that you become so in love with Me and so focused on Me that even in the midst of distractions, your attention is on Me.

Psalm 61:4

I long to dwell in your tent forever and take refuge in the shelter of yourBible2 wings.

Philippians 3:12-14

Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.

prayingDear God,

I come before You today with a desire to focus on You. I realize there will be many things that attempt to take my attention off of You. I want to be passionate for You. Forgive me when I am more passionate for other things than I am for You.

In Jesus’ name,
