Only when we become healthy Christians through fervent prayer, can we play roles of the light and salt of the world. Thanks to Daniel Prayer Meeting that is held every night and broadcast live through GCN, viewers who long to pray as well as Manmin members all over the world gather together and pray for national evangelism, the world mission, to achieve the sanctified hearts and come forth as the fruit of light. Attendees offer up fervent prayer full of faith and love.
Manmin members have prayed together in the sanctuary of the church every day since the church's opening.
In particular, Daniel Prayer Meeting is broadcast through GCN (www.gcntv.org) so that the branch and associate churches world-wide can join. The members' prayer has been impetus for the church's world mission and the path leading to God's answers and blessings.
Daniel Prayer Meeting is led by Manmin Prayer Center President Boknim Lee. She and attendees praise God and pray not only for personal hearts' desires, but also for the salvation of souls; Senior Pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee's ministry; new sanctuary construction; pastors, church workers, and missionaries; and the country. They gather every night, except Fridays, and pray from 9 to 11:40 P.M. (Saturday, Sunday until 11 P.M.). On Fridays they offer up Friday All-night Service from 11 P.M. Friday night until 4 A.M. Saturday morning.
Overseas missionaries and members pray together via GCN live broadcasting or with the recorded video due to time difference. Sister Crystal Asebedo, age 32, of the International Manmin Church in USA said, "I am trying to live a prayerful life by attending Daniel Prayer Meeting. I feel God helping me. I still find it difficult for me to pray for a long time, but I can sustain the effort because I believe this Prayer Meeting time renews me."
Sister Saiyai Serau, 22, of Chiang Rai Manmin Church, Thailand stated, "As prayer renewed my heart, I came to be recognized by others in my workplace and I received financial blessing too. I was also healed of pain in my legs. Daniel Prayer Meeting gives me strength to cast away the futile things that belong to the world. So, it is my source of joy and life."
Mrs. Lee, President of Manmin Prayer Center has been devoted to prayer since the church's opening. She helps the members pray by going to each member and praying together. She also gives short messages between prayers, thereby delivering God's love to attendees.
Elder Enoch S. Lee, 48, President of Male Cell Leaders' Association said, "When Mrs. Lee prayed for me, I came to know what I did not know about myself. I prayed with what she had said in prayer for me and felt myself renewed. When I prayed for counseling or delivering messages to other members or groups, God let me know what I should tell them. So I can fulfill my duty without difficulty. And when I pray holding the Bible and the sermons, God gives me realization, which makes me excited."
Brother Azira, 20, in Chennai Manmin Church, India said, "When I prayed with Mrs. Lee in the Holy Spirit's fullness, listened to her grace-filled short messages, and offered up Manmin praise, I felt myself relieved of all my stress and I became more passionate to live by God's Word. The Holy Spirit helped me realize my improper words or deeds as I relied on God through prayer. God also answered my prayer; my mother was healed of diabetes and back pain, and my family became peaceful and evangelized. I am also financially blessed."
Special Daniel Prayer Meetings are held twice a year: one in the first half of the year and the other in the second half. It goes on throughout two sessions. These special sessions are even attended by newcomers and members who do not usually attend. Through this opportunity, they enjoy God's blessings and answers and increase their faith.
Sister Shrenchecheck, age 72, in Mongolia Manmin Church said, "In one Special Daniel Prayer Meeting, what I had done wrong to my family decades ago came to my mind so I repented of them. After then, I was healed of all abnormal symptoms that had been bothersome to me. I felt God's love and the Holy Spirit's presence while praying." She had suffered from pain in her legs so much that she had difficulty walking. But she was healed of it as she attended Special Daniel Prayer Meeting in the first half of 2015.
This year, beginning September 7, a Special Daniel Prayer Meeting started under the theme of 'Fruit' (1 Thessalonians 5:23) and it will be a double-session meeting.
Autumn, which is the season of harvest, is just around the corner. It will be a great opportunity for the blessing of growing up spiritually by the help of the Holy Spirit.
