Over the past years, the IPHC family has used the month of January as a time to strategically focus on praying for our church communities, our denomination, and the kingdom of God. In 2019 we invite you to consider the following themes for prayer emphasis:<\/p>\n
1) The core value for 2019 is \u201cWe Prayerfully Value Justice.\u201d<\/p>\n
2) The IPHC has adopted the vision of Arise 2033 as a key game plan for the future.<\/p>\n
3) Under the theme of “Pray the Lord of the Harvest,” we are believing for an increase of people who are willing to be workers in the harvest for the kingdom.<\/p>\n
None of these goals will be reached without prayer!<\/p>\n
Our world is crying for justice in all areas of life. The gospel message is love, and it is love for all people. Justice includes the equality of all races. We pray for justice of the oppressed. Human and sexual trafficking is a blight on our land. Immigration concerns impact us all. We value justice for men and women and as a denomination, we have always been concerned about the \u201cleast of these.\u201d Jesus stated, \u201cTruly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me\u201d (Matthew 25:40). You can find more information about the IPHC emphasis on We Prayerfully Value Justice on our website<\/a>.<\/p>\n Presiding Bishop Doug Beacham initiated Arise 2033 last summer, and together we are believing God for IPHC congregations in 75 percent of the counties in the United States. The vision includes planting 200 new traditional congregations among immigrant populations in the U.S. and to establish house churches in major U.S. cities. Also, we are looking to have IPHC presence in 150 nations of the world, as well as 5,000 new congregations outside the United States.<\/p>\n To reach the goals of Arise 2033 we must have a definite increase of men and women who will respond to the call of God to share the gospel of Christ in a variety of venues. “Therefore pray the Lord of the harvest<\/em> to send out laborers into His harvest” (Matthew 9:38). Join the IPHC community in prayer for workers in the kingdom.<\/p>\n On January 9, 2019, the IPHC Day of Prayer, we will live stream a prayer gathering in Oklahoma City from 7:30pm-9:30 pm CST.\u00a0 Dutch Sheets will lead in this time of prayer, as he speaks at the 2019 EVUSA Leadership Gathering. We hope you can join us via the live stream<\/a>\u00a0or on the IPHC Facebook page<\/a>, as the IPHC unites for this important time of intercession.<\/p>\n WIN also encourages all to consider a time of fasting and prayer for the month of January 2019. In the Bible, Jesus certainly expresses that fasting was a discipline that positions the church for greater victories. With statements like: \u201csome things only come by prayer and fasting\u201d (Mt. 17:21) and, “…when<\/em> you fast…” (Mt. 6:16), Jesus indicates that He expects His followers to fast. IPHC WIN is confident that everyone can find a way to participate!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Written By: Dr. Lou Shirey<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"excerpt","protected":false},"author":18,"featured_media":3221,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","episode_type":"","audio_file":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","filesize_raw":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1,99],"tags":[54,624,622,416,623,621,272,11],"class_list":{"0":"post-3219","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-general","8":"category-win","9":"tag-day-of-prayer","10":"tag-dutch-sheets","11":"tag-evusa","12":"tag-fasting","13":"tag-gathering","14":"tag-intercession","15":"tag-leadership","16":"tag-win","17":"entry"},"title_es":"D\u00eda de Oraci\u00f3n de la IPHC","content_es":"\u00c9nfasis en la oraci\u00f3n de IPHC para enero de 2019 Dr. Lou Shirey En los \u00faltimos a\u00f1os, la familia de IPHC ha usado el mes de enero como un tiempo para centrarse estrat\u00e9gicamente en orar por nuestras comunidades eclesiales, nuestra denominaci\u00f3n y el reino de Dios. En 2019, lo invitamos a considerar los siguientes temas para el \u00e9nfasis en la oraci\u00f3n: 1) El valor central para 2019 es \u201cCon oraci\u00f3n valoramos la justicia\u201d. 2) La IPHC ha adoptado la visi\u00f3n de Arise 2033 como un plan de juego clave para el futuro. 3) Tambi\u00e9n estamos orando por un aumento dr\u00e1stico de personas que est\u00e1n llamadas a ser obreras en la cosecha del reino. Ninguna de estas metas puede alcanzarse sin la oraci\u00f3n. Nuestro mundo clama por justicia en todos los \u00e1mbitos de la vida. El mensaje del evangelio es amor, y es amor para todas las personas. La justicia incluye la igualdad de todas las razas. Oramos por la justicia de los oprimidos. El tr\u00e1fico humano y sexual es una plaga en nuestra tierra. Las preocupaciones de inmigraci\u00f3n nos impactan a todos. Valoramos la justicia para hombres y mujeres. Como denominaci\u00f3n, siempre hemos estado preocupados por el \"menor de estos\". Jes\u00fas dijo: \"En verdad les digo, lo que hayan hecho por uno de estos hermanos y hermanas m\u00edos, lo hicieron por m\u00ed\" (Mateo 25: 40). Puede encontrar m\u00e1s informaci\u00f3n sobre el \u00e9nfasis de IPHC en We Prayerfully Value Justice en nuestro sitio web<\/a> . El Obispo Presidente Doug Beacham inici\u00f3 el Arise 2033 el verano pasado, y juntos estamos creyendo en Dios para las congregaciones de la IPHC en el 75 por ciento de los condados de los Estados Unidos. La visi\u00f3n incluye plantar 200 nuevas congregaciones tradicionales entre las poblaciones de inmigrantes en los Estados Unidos y establecer iglesias en casas en las principales ciudades de los Estados Unidos. Tambi\u00e9n, buscamos tener presencia de IPHC en 150 naciones del mundo, as\u00ed como 5,000 nuevas congregaciones fuera de los Estados Unidos. Para alcanzar las metas de Arise 2033 debemos tener un aumento definido de hombres y mujeres que respondan al llamado de Dios para compartir el evangelio de Cristo en una variedad de lugares. \u201cP\u00eddele al Se\u00f1or de la mies que env\u00ede obreros a su campo de cosecha\u201d (Mateo 9:38). \u00danase a la comunidad de IPHC en oraci\u00f3n por los trabajadores del reino. El 9 de enero de 2019, el D\u00eda de Oraci\u00f3n de la IPHC, transmitiremos en vivo una reuni\u00f3n de oraci\u00f3n en la ciudad de Oklahoma de 7:30 pm a 9:30 pm CST. Dutch Sheets dirigir\u00e1 este tiempo de oraci\u00f3n, mientras habla en la Reuni\u00f3n de Liderazgo EVUSA 2019.
