This weekend, October 20 and 21, perhaps 250,000 Millennials will gather at the Texas Motor Speedway outside of Dallas Texas for the Together 2018 meeting.
This meeting is not your typical evangelism outreach event. Instead it is designed to encourage and empower young people to take their faith outside of the four walls of the church into a lost and dying world. There will be powerful worship by bands like Hillsong and Jesus Culture, along with transformative messages by speakers like Nick Hall, Sammy Rodriguez, and Tony Evans. But there will also be opportunities for fellowship, mentoring and prayer.
As intercessors we will be praying for a great outpouring of God’s Spirit on our young people at Together 2018. Specific prayer needs requested by Together 2018 include:
1. Pray for the younger generation to be awakened to their need for Jesus.
2. Pray that the Holy Spirit will stir up boldness in our young people to share Jesus with their generation.
3. Pray that the nation will turn to Jesus as Healer, Reconciler, and Restorer to heal our divisions, bringing hope and revival.
4. Pray that the Together 2018 meeting will be a catalyst to help usher in a new Jesus movement.
5. Pray for the organization, logistics, and funding of Together 2018.
As the new generation prepares to take its place on the wall, remember the vison one of our intercessors of an old worn out horse standing quietly in a pasture. Then its ears perked up and it began slowly walking toward the sound of war trumpets in the distance. As the trumpets grew louder the horse moved faster as the years seemed to fall off. Soon it was running full speed at full strength toward the battle.
God is calling the old and tired back into the battle. These young people need their experience, their love, their peace, their mentoring, and their prayers. Let the elders respond to the trumpet call and may their strength and zeal be restored.
There is not one church for the young and another for the old. Pray that the generations will come together to see the full manifestation of revival.
