While attending the sessions & hearing/seeing the amazing things that have been doing in other countries and in other states in the US my heart began to grieve for my neighborhood, community and my business community. I became very jealous for my "home" my Maui. I had been praying for all of these areas but I began to learn the God had specific instructions on how to pray and where to pray. The lord began to speak to me & show me that he’s calling Maui back to their first love. I knew that God was going to birth something very soon, beginning with Maui. I could hardly wait to get home and share this with my friends and my staff at work.
After getting home I gathered my staff together and shared the things I saw & learned, we changed the way we were praying and adopted our business street, taking it one step further, I told them "when you pray walk, call the name of the business and the owner of that business out & speak blessings, peace and salvation over them and all of their employees". In addition to praying for our business community we also pray every day for every person that comes into our office. We are seeing God do amazing things in people's lives, just because we take a few minutes & listen to them and offer prayer to them.
I feel like I’ve been "born again" again!
