Surely you have heard of  or participated in prayer walks that have become very popular over the past years. Tonight was absolutely wonderful as we did a prayer walk through KCBT’s new campus expansion as part of our Tuesday night prayer ministry.

Executive Pastor Jeff Cox shared some of the lessons that God has been teaching him through this process. Jeff has led the team that God has used to make this dream a reality. This evening he shared how God has been teaching him faith. He showed us one of the Bible’s dynamic paradoxes in Philippians.

Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure. (Philippians 2:12-13)

We are to work out our salvation, but it is God who is working in us. It is fascinating that God never really explains this tension. He just presents it and expects us to accept its truth.

Jeff went on to share the hard work of his team and complemented that with the many evidences of God’s miraculous provision through this whole process. I’ll share some of those Sunday in the dedication.

Following that, we moved into the new lobby to begin our prayer walk. I sneaked out and went ahead so I could be standing just past the door as people entered. What fun! Their expressions and comments were priceless!

The crowd divided up into small teams and went room to room as they prayed. I stayed alone so as to be available to help, answer questions, and, most importantly, to be able to go around and watch their reactions and listen to their comments.

Here’s the evidence of a great design and mission accomplished – no one wanted to leave! Everyone just stood around and talked. I am SO excited and can’t wait for Sunday!!! You don’t want to miss this.
