This song by Chris Tomlin has captured the dream of our church.  Click here to listen.

Sunday morning I ministered about 5 battlefronts our church must win.  One of the battlefronts is for our city.  This week before service I drove around our city and prayed as I went.  If you have about thirty minutes you might take this prayer drive and pray that God will do even greater things in this city. 

This is how my drive went.

I started at our church on Oleander towards Wrightsville Beach, turned right on Airley Rd. until I reached Eastwood Rd. (I prayed over all those that live at the beach area) Then I drove up Eastwood and prayed for Port City Community Church.  I stopped at the intersection of Eastwood and Market and prayed over all of the residents up towards Jacksonville.  I continued straight until I reached the intersection at I-40.  I prayed over the entrances to our city and I prayed for The Rock of Wilmington.  I drove along Martin Luther King Boulevard praying over those areas until reached the bridge to cross over towards Leland.  I prayed over the Leland area and then looked back to my left and prayed over the downtown area.  I then went back across the main bridge back into Wilmington and turned right on Carolina Beach Rd.  I prayed all along that area including Calvary Chapel and the future sight of Christ Community Church.  When I reached Monkey Junction, I stopped and prayed over everyone down towards Carolina Beach and I prayed for Myrtle Grove Presbyterian.  I then headed up College Rd. until I reach Oleander Dr. again.  I finally reached our church where I had begun the journey.

This was an awesome experience to pray over our city.  I really, really, really believe that greater things are yet to be done in this city and I simply want us to do our part.
