The Days of Passion Week
A new pastor friend of mine, Will from Illinois, recently called me about a prayer lecture and laboratory that I hosted in Kansas City. He is now planning "a Gethsemane Gathering of Prayer" that I taught on and led there, for a Palm Sunday meeting at his local church and was looking for a suitable outline.
I shared this sacred sequence: The Days of Passion Week, because it’s a great outline to pray.
I pray it helps Pastor Will and his local church and I hope it also helps you in some simple yet profound way during this season when we remember our Lord’s life, death and Resurrection.
1. Day of Compassion/Anointing -- John 11:55-12:11 / Saturday before Palm Sunday
2. Day of Popularity/Praise -- John 12:12-19 / Palm Sunday
3. Day of Authority/Prayer -- Mark 11:15-18 / Monday
4. Day of Conflict/Relationships -- Mark 11:27-33 / Tuesday
5. Day of Silence/Reflection -- Psalm 39 & Psalm 46:10a / Wednesday
6. Day of Betrayal/Violence -- Matthew 26:14-75, John 18:1-11, Psalm 88 / Thursday
7. Day of Agony/Suffering/Death -- John 19:1-37 / Friday
8. Day of Mourning/Darkness -- John 19:31-42 / Saturday
9. Day of Resurrection/Life. (Best saved for Easter Sunday, of course.) / Sunday

Sunday Morning Prayer
How blessed Kim and I are to have this prayer prayed over us this morning by Pastor Jonathan of Millville, New Jersey:
"Good morning, Pastor. You have been lifted before the throne...for strength beyond your own, for wisdom that is embraced by those under your authority, for influence that keeps leading to transformation and for favor that keeps opening doors. God is with you and Kim and you are loved!"
Let someone know you are praying for them, today. It could change everything for you and for them.
Presence Matters Most!
That is... Presence. Unity. Souls. Love.

"King Jesus Fight for Us!"
I awoke early one morning this week praying deeply within: "Fight for us, King Jesus, Lord of Angel Armies!" I felt compelled to share this prayer with numerous people in my life. As a result, testimonies are coming my way that Jesus has been accomplishing amazing things ever since, even miracles are happening.
Last evening, a friend who read my awakening prayer, sent me this song below. Claim the prayer with me and pray deep within as the song plays.
Presence Matters Most!
That is... Presence. Unity. Souls. Love.

Partnering with Future Generations and All Cultures
For nearly my entire ministry, I have been blessed to minister with many of God’s people of all ages from around the world.
This Sunday night I am blessed to partner with a young, new, Brazilian-American, musical artist, Julia Vitoria, at our New Life Church of the Nazarene in Philadelphia. Julia will bring the Good News in sacred concert and I will bring the Good News in spoken words. I am humbled to partner across generations, cultures and even languages. Pray for our gathering.
Here are three songs by Julia. Two in English and one in Portugese:
Presence Matters Most!

Lord Jesus, i Need You!
"Without Me, you can do nothing." Words of the Lord Jesus, John 15:5
It’s sad how we as humans get the ignorant idea that we are just fine tending to ourselves. We foolishly believe we are good apart from the Lord Jesus, yes, that we are good on our own, even independent -- at times near invincible -- and surely we often think we are self-sufficient.
In my nearly 58-plus years on the planet, I have learned a few things. Let me share three:
1. When our human resources dry up we quickly realize we are surely not self-sufficient.
2. When our physical health fails we find out we are not even close to independent and especially we are not anywhere near invincible.
3. When we grow older in our years it becomes very evident that we are not at all good on our own.
In conclusion, the question is not do we need the Lord Jesus, it’s when will we come to know and even cry out: "Lord Jesus, i Need You!"
i personally, have already come to know i need the Lord Jesus many times and i have already cried out to Him on countless occasions and i now i continue to cry out nonstop: "Lord Jesus, i Need You!" (i also want You Lord Jesus!)
Presence Matters Most!
That is... Presence. Unity. Souls. Love.

"By Our Love!" -- Unity Restored!
This song has been one with my heart, mind, soul and strength for some 20-plus years. It is the prayer of Jesus for those who carry His Name and Presence -- a prayer for Unity to be Restored.
I echo the prayer of Jesus as my own prayer and vision for the district church and local churches I have been entrusted to encourage.
Presence Matters Most!
Thtbis... Presence. Unity. Souls. Love.
