Urgent Evoke

A crash course in changing the world.

God's 26 Guards

Here's a message that will bring you chills.

Have you ever felt the urge to pray for someone and
Then just put it on a list and said, 'I'll pray for them later'
?
Or has anyone ever called you and said, 'I need you to pray for me, I have this need?'

Read the following story that was sent to me and it
May change the way that you think about prayer

and also the way you pray. You will be b lessed by this....

A missionary on furlough told this true story while
Visiting his home church in Michigan .

'While serving at a small field hospital in Africa ,
Every two weeks I traveled by bicycle
Through the jungle to a nearby city for supplies..
This was a journey of two days and
Required camping overnight at the halfway point.

On one of these journeys, I arrived in the city
Where I planned to collect money from a bank,
Purchase medicine, and supplies, and then begin
My two-day journey back to the field hospital.

Upon arrival in the city, I observed two men fighting,
One of whom had been seriously injured.
I treated him for his injuries and at the same time
Talked to him about the Lord.

I then traveled two days, camping overnight, and
Arrived home without incident....

Two weeks later I repeated my journey
Upon arriving in the city,
I was approached by the young man I had treated.
He told me that he had known I carried
Money and medicines.
He said, 'Some friends and I followed you into the jungle,

Knowing you would camp overnight.
We planned to kill you and take your money and drugs..
But just as we were about to move into your camp,
We saw that you were surrounded by 26 armed guards.

At this, I laughed and said that I was
Certainly all alone in that jungle campsite..
The young man pressed the point, however, and said,
'No, sir, I was not the only person to see the guards,
My friends also saw them, and we all counted them.
It was because of those guards that
We were afraid and left you alone.'

At this point in the sermon,
One of the men in the congregation jumped to his feet and

interrupted the missionary and asked if he could tell him the
exact day this happened.. The
missionary told the congregation
the
date, and The man who interrupted told him this story:

'On the night of your incident in Africa , It was morning here and I was
preparing to go play golf. I was about to putt when I felt the urge
to pray for
you. In fact, the urging of the Lord was so strong, I called
men in this church to meet with me here In the sanctuary to pray for
you.

Would all of those men who met with me on that day stand up?'
The men who had met
together to pray that day stood up. The missionary wasn't concerned
with whom they were, He was too busy counting how many men he saw.

There were 26.


This story is an incredible example of how the Spirit of the Lord
moves in behalf of
those who love Him. If you
ever feel such prodding to pray, go along with it,
you don't know what it can mean to that person..

Nothing is ever hurt by prayer except the gates of hell.
If we all take it to heart,
We can turn this world toward God once again.
As the above true story clearly illustrates,
'With God all things are possible'.

More importantly, how God hears and
Answers the prayers of the faithful.

After you read this, please pass it on and
Give God thanks for the beautiful gift of your faith,
For the powerful gift of prayer, and for the many miracles

He works in your own daily life... And then pass it on.
Who says God does not move on the earth today?

I asked the Lord to b less the Agents of Evoke. To guide
you and protect you as you go along your way. His love is always
with you, His promises are true,
and when we give Him our cares you
know He will see us through.
So when the road you're traveling on
seems difficult at best, Just remember I'm here praying, and God
will do the rest.

Fourth of July on the Lake

This past weekend was the annual celebration at the lake house in Connecticut. It is amazing that the lake is still so clear and beautiful after all these years. The watershed association has done a wonderful job protecting these waters from the damaging effects of development.The wood grill was finally ready to cook on, so we didn't miss the propane tank fueled grill anymore. The food actually tasted fresher than in the past and was easy to keep fueled.Dad was very proud of the solar hybrid…See More

Future

FutureToday is 2020/1/1. It is just like yesterday. The war is still continuing. It has started since 2010. In 2010, that year was a horrible year. Almost every energy ran out. Every country’s governments were crushed down at the same time. There were riots everywhere. All of the big company’s bosses were killed xdeadx in the riots. Troops fought each other everywhere. Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More

public servants

The exchange works directly for state and public workers and servants. It gives them credit in exchange for the amount of public work they contribute to the community. The more constructive they are based off a base rate the more credit they recieve.
