Jesus – ruler of angels
and servant of man….
Our national holiday today. 12 years ago since we officially reunified both “Germanys!”….Many Christians all over the nation are meeting today for prayer…both in national as well as regional prayer gatherings. Will go to the one in Berlin (too lazy to travel and it does not make
sense anyhow)….otherwise happy to have a holiday as I worked much on an intense project in the last few days: finishing the translation of Pat Cockings book “Thrid heaven, angels and oher stuff” (English version available at her homepage ).
Today 3000 Germans, Austrians and Swiss start praying for their cities – for 120 days. Another initiative sponsored by
or your city (Mike Pierce) that will hopefully help to soak the hard ground in our lands with prayer and prepare it for more of God to come and visit us.
On Monday prayer leaders from various prayer groups across the city will meet to talk about cooperationg for the sake of the whole city. God is moving. We just released the Ge
rman version of “120 days of prayer for your city” (the english version is available at christ for your city. Hope and pray it will be a blessing!
This morning I read: “Isn´t feeling pain better than having no feelings at all?”
What an interesting thought…especially when one lives in a nation that has learned for centuries to be hard and strong, to show no feelings (“a man never cries”, “be tough”)….
I hope that our present catastrophe will bring many people to a point where they will allow “weakness” in their lives….and discover, when they are “weak”, real people they will be able to experience his love and presence in a much deeper way than by always pretending to be strong….
Sound of love
The perfect arrangement
of a carpet of sounds
floating though the air
winning the worlds awards
cannot beat
the beauty
of a mum
humming a song of love
to her child
[part of a poem I wrote a while ago]
Several people from abroad have asked me how they can pray for the flood situation.
Thanks for feeling and standing with us. Here are my suggestions.
A) PROTECTION
For the areas that are still flooded, in danger of being flooded or in the process of cleaning up (possibly toxinous mud and water)
B) HEALING AND RESTORATION
in the area of emotions (shock, loss, terror) and materially (we are grateful for the EU and the German government for fast and unbureocratic help)
C) SPIRITUAL RENEWAL
of the whole nation that has turned away from God in so many ways…
D) GODs PEACE
To cover the hearts, minds and lives of the people…
Thanks for praying with us.
I suggested to my German contacts to fast for one day and pray for these things and give the “food money” to the victims of the flood.
All over Europe torrential rain cause floods…houses are swept away, people loose their lives. Don´t even know how to pray….
Lord, have mercy!
Need money? Shoot a wild pig.
Dpa reported that 50 wild pigs are on their way to Denmark. They have already swum across the Kanal connecting the East Sea with the North Sea and were only 50 km from Denmarks border. Nature freaks in Denmark are excited about the possible enrichment of the variation of species (Wild pigs died out in Denmark 200 years ago and can only be seen in Zoos). The danish association of pig breeders however is not so happy….(do they fear competition)….and offered 250 Euro to any hunter who would shoot one of the pigs for them. 250 Euro x 50…that´s a lot of money….
I think the story would give a great action Movie….Arnold Schwarzenegger or Mel Gibson in the role of the protector of Nature (kind of 21st century Tarzan) and Bruce Willis as the evil boss of the pig breeders….and of course one beautiful lady….could be a great script.
