24 Hour Prayer

Posted by: Joshua Alcorn

This past semester SOI 21 helped facilitate 24 Hour Prayer at George Mason University (10/29), George Washington University (11/30-12/1), and American University (12/2-3). On all three campuses students literally prayed around the clock! Here’s some of the awesome feedback we received:

“there is always something special about gathering with a body of believers to pray and worship. 24/1 has been an empowering experience and has prepared me to take on the rest of the week remembering I am not alone in my faith on this campus.”

“It meant a lot for me personally to be able to be involved in this and renewed my commitment to active prayer. I was reminded of the power and awesomeness of communication with God.”

“24/1 was awesome. Prayer is the only thing that is gonna change our university. We are changing the spiritual atmosphere at this campus.”

“God’s timing is perfect. I was struggling to open up about a traumatic event in my life that took place 13 years ago. I was scared and didn’t want to talk about it, but I’m so glad I did. I really felt the Lord’s healing touch when everyone prayed for me. Someone got Is. 54:4-6 for me…the exact same Scripture another leader had given me the first time I talked about it—what an amazing confirmation.”

Dear Marie,My heart goes out to all you women and men who have been abused physadiadcally or sexaduadally. It is a teradriadble vioadlaadtion of trust and rcspeet for the digadnity of the human peradson. It is a sin that cries out to heaven for jusadtice and is ceradtainly often influadenced by demonic influadences which always try to dehuadmanadize us.The good news is there is hope for healading and strengthadenading. Spiradiadtuadally there are two main types of prayers that can help immensly in such cases. One is to offer up a Mass (or series of Masses) for our ancesadtors who are in Puradgaadtory and who have passed on to us the affects of thier sinadfull lifestyles. The Sacred Scripadtures tell us that we are not morally culadpaadble for the sins of our ancesadtors (Ezekiel 18) but that we sure do sufadfer the conadseadquences of thier sinadfulladness (Ex 20:5). We can have tenaddenadcies to depresadsion, suiadcide, addicadtions, poor self-confidence, indifadferadence, anger issues, etc. One of the worst affects of paradents with scanaddeadlously sinadfull behavadior is that it is difadfiadcult to deveadladope a trustading, affecadtive relaadtionadship with God. What one does to preadpare for a Mass for the famadily is to make a famadily tree includading paradents, grandadparadents and great grandadparadents. One can also include aunts and uncles as well. On the paper with the tree one also puts sigadnifadiadcant behavadiors or events that could affect me (such as divorces, infiaddelity, peradverse behavadior, involveadment in cults, new age, atheadism, cursading, vioadlence, aboradtions, witchadcraft, being orphaned or abanaddoned, unloved, loneadliadness, etc). Durading the Mass we put them all on the altar (When I conadduct these Masses I put the sheets of the famadily trees on the altar) and plead that preadcious blood of the sacadriadfice of Jesus over them all grantading them mercy and also prayading for all the other peoadple who have been hurt by them that they too find healading and the lovading presadence of God in thier lives. We also give thanks for thier lives becouse in the end God used them to bring us into exhisadtence, He loves them too, and we have also inheradited good aspects from them as well (could be inteladliadgence, or skill in a craft or music, etc) It is a prayer of soladiaddaradity where we pray that our whole famadily will be blessed by Godb4s meradciadfull healading and freeading love through Jesus. The secadond type of powaderadfull prayer that I would recadomadmend is the healading of memadoadries. In this prayer one asks God to bless our bodadies, feeladings, emoadtions, memadoadries, imagadiadnaadtion and inteladlect and will. Then we ask the Holy Spirit to bring up a memadory that He would like to heal. When a memadory comes to mind, such as physadiadcal or sexadual abuse, we put ouradselves in the memadory as if we were re-living it, but this time we ask Jesus (and Mary) to come to us and help us, to conadsole us, and to help us not to be afraid. We can ask them what they think of us, because we can feel much shame or disadgust in what we have expeadriadenced or peradhaps we even blame ouradselves instead of the adult or other peradson who is truly at fault. It is amazading to me what Jesus and Mary say and do in these cases. Our past is litaderadally changed. It becomes filled with the love from heaven. The prayer using immagadiadnaadtion has this power because with God past, present and future are all in the present. He can heal the past by takading away the negadaadtive emoadtions that are trapped deep within and which conadstantly haunt us. One may do this prayer alone but I find many peoadple need help to enter into this type of prayer. For More inforadmaadtion on this topic one can google Healading of Memadoadries (Fr. DiGranaddis is a good author on this and Healading the Famadily Tree).The third recadomadmenaddaadtion is the groups of ALANON and the litaderadaadture. They deal with the emmoadtional sickadness that can infect us when we have lived with an extremely unhealthy peradson. Many who have not actuadally lived with an addict attend these meetadings because they find it is a solid and pracadtiadcal path to findading emoadtional peace. I finadish by leavading you with the serenadity prayer which is extemely simadple as it is powaderadfull.Lord, grant me the serenadity to accept the things that I canadnot change,Courage to change the things that I can,and the Wisaddom to know the difadferadence.God bless you,Fr.a0Isaac

Divine Mother Azna, Please pray for me and my family, I have been pranyig to God to win or hit the Florida Fantasy five because this is the only way, that we will be able to afford a new car, we got all kinds of debts and to win the Lottery will really help us now in Jesus name. And the reason I have been pranyig to God to hit the lottery is because I have arthritis in my right knees which the bad one and I have it in my left knee, also and I am constantly in a lot of pain and I don't want to have surgery, so I have been pranyig to God for healing in both. So I need a car because I am not really have a hard time catching the bus, and I really don't know much about the buses. Thank you in Jesus name. It's really hard for me pray for us.
