Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
I'm looking for feedback on Prayer Gardens messaging
The Church has strayed far from the path Christ directed it towards when He ascended to heaven. We went from well-connected and interconnected churches to disparate denominations and inter-church fighting over doctrine and dogma. Now, more than ever, it has become apparent that the church must begin to take a more active role in the culture and society. Not just in the United States, but worldwide.
We are directed to be the Salt and Light of the world, to defend the faith against satanic-occupied bastions. We have been given a sword, which is the Bible. We have been given a shield, which is faith. We have been given all the armor and weapons we need to vanquish Satan, but we became complacent.
This is largely due to our decadent and free lifestyle. Our freedoms are guaranteed, right? Right? Not anymore! While the Church mired in doctrinal and dogmatic battles, they were slowly restricted by the worldly doctrine of seperation of church and state. This neutered the Church's options to be politically active, and has resulted in the systematic destruction of our heritage and values. When Christians aren't fighting, the devil can just walk in and occupy.
This needs to end. The internet has given us a powerful tool to transcend denominational boundaries and strengthen the bulwarks against the enemy, so we can push back out and retake the world for Christ! We are not restricted anymore by distance from like-believing churches. We can connect, instantly, over the internet.
Over media such as Discord. Discord is highly useful and applicable for connecting Churches because it caters to the newest generations and can be easily learned. Pastors and youth alike can easily join and share their testimonies with a worldwide network of Believers. Prayer requests can be submitted and instantly, congregations all over the world can pray together about it. If two people gathered in the name of Jesus can affect the world, how much more so can millions?
Let us escape the stresses of the world and come together as children of God, and enter the Garden to pray. Pray for our lives, pray for our jobs, our kids, our communities, and our world. Pray for our soldiers and politicians. Pray for our farmers and doctors. Pray for our friends and our enemies. Pray and watch for the impending coming of Christ. Our work is far from over. The fields are overwhelmingly white with the ripest harvest of souls we can imagine. We must engage the enemy and drive them out! Drive them out of our churches, our schools, our government buildings. Drive satan out of the Earth and back to Hell where he came from!
What is our mission, then? We have 7 tasks God gave us.
Unity. That is the word that needs to be put into practice. Christ requires a unified body in order to bless us. We must be unified in our families, s churches, schools and in politics. Nothing can stop a unified body for truth.
Yes I agree. It's tough because I don't wanna force to much sooner than I should or reveL more then I should to soon. It must all be timed with other events. Yet I still like feedback from this group 😉😁🙏 please keep prayer garden in your prayers and me as well. God bless u sis. Love u
