Dwayne(business transformation leader - chairs business council) had 260 business leaders attend the Simulcast event! This was a key prayer focus for us this month!
 
The business council is one of 7 councils formed to help develop prayer and action strategies for the Church in a city or region.  This is one of the keys of ORT effectiveness.

WA ST CONECTer Jason Hubbard presented ORT to the Church in Vancouver.  He reports: We launched a prayer center in Vancouver, WA, Christian Jung who was with us at ORT kick-off, and they have 5 local churches starting on ORT so far!  Their house of prayer launches officially on National Day of Prayer, interesting, here in Bellingham, and Spokane, and Vancouver, we are all doing 24hr worship/prayer following our NDP events, J  that was entirely a spirit-led thing!

(Tim Taylor) - I am praising God because in 1992 the Lord gave my wife and I a vision to see 12 city prayer centers birthed.  In May - July 2008, through Opertion Rolling Thunder we saw 5 city prayer centers launched.  This is the 12th city prayer center that ORT has helped launch since 2008.  We are rejoicing and have expanded our vision.  Praise God, this was done through a son in the Lord.  Well done Jason. 

Dear Tim,

Spokane Central Seventh-day Adventist Church engaged in 24 hours of prayer & fasting on May 6 & 7.  This was our part of Operation Rolling Thunder during the 39 days between the National Day of Prayer and the Global Day of Prayer. We began at 6 pm on Friday.

Enclosed are copies of the Prayer Points that we asked our prayer partners to pray each hour through the 24 hour period.  The yellow copy is points of prayer for our church and the institutions for which we have denominational engagement. For example, I am on the board of He’s Alive Television UHF 39. Many in our congregation are directly involved in the other institutions and programs.

The blue sheets include Prayer Points provided by ORTINW regarding the institutions where we live, work and have our being. There are additional points for state, federal and global issues.

Take a look at the little booklet, “What is Prayer?” put together by our prayer coordinator, Priscilla Sumagpang. This booklet was distributed to each person who committed to pray for an hour with the Prayer Points.

Using this booklet, we engaged in prayer instructions, particularly Sabbath afternoon.  This included, for example:

·        Prayer through singing hymns and songs from Scripture ;

·        Prayer in and through Scripture;

·        Prayer walking throughout the neighborhood where our church is located. This included praying for a high school, an elementary school, a nursing care facility for seriously disabled patients, for key corners in the neighborhood, and for other churches within four blocks of our church;

·        Fasting as we prayed; and plenty of

·        Praise and testimonies during the Friday evening vespers and throughout the Sabbath day-light hours.

John Tusant, Executive Director of the Greater Spokane Association of Evangelicals, invited Cindy Deresch, the ORTINW coordinator, and me to serve on the NDOP Planning Committee to put together the Spokane program for May 5. In meeting in the City Hall Chambers we heard Mayor Mary Verner plead for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit and more prayer in City Hall. Her plea was echoed by City Councilwoman Nancy McLaughlin for prayer each Monday evening during Council meetings, as well as for government officials.

Our prayer is that Operation Rolling Thunder fills the heavens with a constant flow of prayer in aggressive action against the Satan and forces of evil.

Peace is preferred to war. But we are in war with Satan.

I searched (Google) on the last day of the ORT Kick Off in Gainesville FL. because of the wind gusts we observed as we finished our meeting.   Gainesville, FL 32608 Hourly Weather Forecast - AccuWeather.com reported

14 hours ago - Get the Gainesville, FL 32608 hour-by-hour weather forecast including temperature, RealFeel and chance of precipitation from ... 43 mph Wind Gusts ...

This kind of wind gusts (40+ mph) marked the teaching of the principles and testimony of ORT in Sept. 2010 in Montpelier Ohio where prophets declared and prayed into the "winds of change" during my teaching.  40+MPH wind gusts marked the last day of the ORT Kick Off in Bellingham WA in Feb. 2011.  An intercessor gave a prophetic word during that same meeting declaring it was the "winds of change."  This was the 3rd occurence where 40+ mph wind gusts occured during the presentation of the truths surrounding the ORT strategy.

Two things let me know you were the real deal when I first encountered ORT. One, it worked. You weren’t peddling a theory but history. Two, your website was chock full of teaching, training & equipping. Many people either don’t know how or need major compensation for their equipping. I remember thinking to myself while scouring your website last year….”it’s all here. Everything I need to know to do this is provided for me.”
