San Jacinto Baptist Association
San Jacinto Baptist Association is churches networking to transform lives, communities, and the world with the love of Jesus Christ through encouragement, education, and resources, all to the glory of God.
SJBA Prayer Coordinator Dr. B.L. Worsham has called a Launch Meeting to encourage Pastors and other church leaders to join our plans to focus on being one people in multiple congregations by coming together to be One in Prayer.
What is our plan? To organize an association-wide prayer conference that will pray for individuals who do not know Christ as Savior to accept Him: Until Christians will renew their fervor for the Lord’s Kingdom: And until Christ will grant the “Great Awakening” we are seeking!
We pray for an anointing of the Holy Spirit that brings peace to our homes and our troubled world. That our parents become burdened to bring their children to church and “raise them up in the admonition of the Lord.” That our people return to God by the thousands and not love the world, neither the things of the world” (and choose the Lord’s church first as Christ has directed) – “not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together.” (Hebrews 10:25)
When I was a boy, revivals lasted for six weeks! Later, they were reduced to two weeks. Still later, the norm became one week. More recently, Sunday thru Wednesday (3 days). Today, hardly at all! We no longer sow “Revival Seeds.”
“Revival Seeds” are sown by Prayer!
Beloved, without prayer, churches struggle, lose visitors, lose members, salvations, baptisms, finances, and many close their doors!
We know that we cannot force anyone to pray. But it is this very desire in the heart of our people we are attempting to awaken. And Jesus Christ is the only one who can! We must become convicted that the only way to change society is to change people’s hearts! And we have the inerrant promise that Christ will – “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” (2 Chronicles 7:14)
