24-7 Prayer Room Enniskillen

Jesus cries out to us to come follow. And we do, from a distance. This is a far cry from what our faith should be. The only way we can become more and more like Jesus is to follow close behind Him. We may pray that we’ll become more and more like Jesus but so often we aren’t willing to pay the price. When we come follow He asks us to carry our cross as well. True discipleship demands our all, this is why we should come into His Presence and find strength in prayer.

“How hard is it sometimes to get leave of hearts to seek God! Jesus Christ went more willingly to the cross than we do to the throne of grace.” Robert Murray M’Cheyne.

In ten short years, 24-7prayer rooms have spread like a virus from humble beginnings on the South Coast of England into more than 100 nations around the world.

One of those nations being Ireland and the journey here has been incredible. Hundreds of people have prayed non-stop, hundreds of prayer rooms have been set up in a range of locations in which many people were loved, inspired, listened to, rescued, served and given a voice, churches united, mission was birthed, roadtrips and Ibiza trips taken and the most amazing thing is each person has there own story and experience that 24-7 has brought them on.

We want to mark this moment 24-7 prayer’s tenth birthday party with our own celebration with people like yourself who have been apart of 24-7 prayer here in Ireland to come together to celebrate and share all that God has done and yet to do!!

Why don’t we respond to this emergency appeal by offering up our prayers for Haiti?  We may not know their every need but we do know this: Haiti is in desperate need of our prayers.

“Concern has launched an urgent emergency appeal to respond to the damage caused by Tuesday’s earthquake in Haiti that measured 7.0 on the Richter scale.

The death toll, currently at nearly 100,000 is expected to keep climbing after the quake. Haiti was hit just before 5pm EST on January 12, wreaking havoc in the congested capital of Port au Prince, just 10 miles from the quake’s epicenter in Carrefour–a mountainous suburb of shantytowns that extend a mile up from the valley floor—located just minutes from where Concern works.

Most of the structures in Port-au-Prince’s vast and overcrowded slum communities are built with raw concrete walls and metal roofs, and the majority have been utterly razed, causing widespread devastation. Hundreds of thousands of traumatized residents in the surrounding areas of Port-au-Prince have now been forced onto the streets with nowhere to go, in a disaster that has affected an estimated three million people, according to the Red Cross.

Haiti is the poorest country in the western hemisphere: in 2008, four back-to-back hurricanes affected 800,000 people and resulted in catastrophic damage to homes, crops, schools, roads, and communications infrastructure.

Wednesday’s aftershocks measured 5.9 and continued to rattle the city hours after the quake; the capital Port-au-Prince was said to be in total darkness, with thousands of people left without any form of shelter and thousands more buried under rubble.

Telephone and power lines were down, making it difficult to communicate and assess the full extent of the damage, although attempts are being made to dig people out from the rubble of fallen buildings, among them, the five-story United Nations building in which at least 36 UN staff have been confirmed dead with 150 more missing, a three-storey hospital in Petion Ville, the presidential palace, and several more government buildings and international embassies. Haiti’s envoy to the US said the cost of the damage could run into billions.”
