Friday I watched a teaching by C. Peter Wagner on intercession. The main thing that stuck with me for Dyed4you was that he highly extorted us to not just pray for the minister but also the spouse, ALWAYS. Many of his suggested guidelines, Meghan is already doing or has set in place (which I thought was pretty cool). And he really highlighted how vulnerable you make yourself, as a minister, when you allow folks to intercede for you….because you are saying God has my permission to tell them anything about me. With that in mind, it made me feel very humbled that Meghan has allowed us into her life. Meghan may we always walk in love and show you love. (just makes me cry out of respect for you)
On hearing this teaching and even now, days later I feel this is very very important, and this strong impression has not left me.

So my request is that we ALWAYS pray for Meghan AND Allen with all prayers that we pray for the ministry.
Father, I thank you for teaching me to pray. And I commit to lift up Meghan and Allen. Lord, bless their marriage, bless them together and bless them individually. I plead the blood of Jesus to encompass their lives, relationship and ministry. Praise be to the Holy One.
Thank you Tonia! It’s encouraging to hear we’ve got stuff in place that we should – yay God! Thankful for His direction 🙂
And thank you for your encouragement to pray for Allen. I can tell you that he impacts the ministry and the ministry impacts him – so the prayers are MUCH needed and MUCH appreciated!
Thank you ALL for your prayers! Seriously don’t know what I’d do without you <3
Father, thank You for the UNITY of Allen and Meghan! I pray blessing and pease and prosperity over BOTH of them. This ministry flourishes through UNITY. Unity in the Father, Unity in Meghan and Allen, Unity of the team with Meghan, unity of the team as a whole, and in other ways also. Abba we thank You for stitching us together as only You could do. You have thoughtfully chosen each relationship. You have spoken over this ministry. You have blessed this ministry. We give You praise and glory and honor!!! We continue to seek You in all things, Father. I pray a hedge of protection around Allen. Lord, I ask that You encourage Allen as only You can. We lift him up as Meghan’s covering, her protector here in the natural. I pray strength over Allen. I ask for Your wisdom to be departed to Allen. Bless him as the head of the household, Father. Cover him with Your wings. Mighty warrior… Strong protector… Fierce… Prosperous… Loving and tender… I hear these things spoken about Allen. Words of encouragement for His servant. Be blessed today, as you have blessed many. I send my love and support to Allen and Meghan both! <3
Thank you, Tonia, for the word and insight, a beautiful reminder! Blessings over you today, too, dear one. (((hugs)))
