Prayer Watch 2010: Breaking News

Over 30 of the world's foremost prayer leaders and teachers are in Kansas City participating in a 66-hour prayer and fasting meeting hosted at the International House of Prayer. I knew a little bit that this was happening but I had no idea the weight or importance of this event.

Their website (http://www.prayerwatch2010.com/) says, "For the first time in history, the foremost teachers on prayer will be gathered at one place to unite the nations in Solemn Assembly for Prayer Watch 2010. Thousands will assemble from across the globe for this special event and millions more via Internet streaming video. Don’t miss it! Make plans now to be part of this mountain-moving prayer gathering."

The Prayer Watch started last night at 6 PM and will carry even through the nights all the way to Sunday at 12 PM. Last night I was asked to play electric guitar for Matt Gilman from 8-10 PM and I arrived to see some of Christendom's current heros in the prayer room! Dick Eastman (founder of Every Home for Christ) was lead the meeting while I was there along with Vonette Bright (wife of Bill Bright and co-founder of Campus Crusade for Christ), and other leaders from YWAM and many other global ministries much larger than IHOP-KC. What I love about this is the way that myself and IHOP staff get to serve these amazing leaders in the body of Christ. This really is a huge honor. I was blown away.

Not only that, but those leaders were giving their blessing to our little house of prayer and blessing the young people in the room (myself included) and I can tell after this event, IHOP will never be same. Something very cool just happened in the kingdom of God, and it's exciting to see what happens next!
