Just got back from overnight prayer meeting(OPM) 15 minutes and decided to blog while waiting for my hair to dry. OPM was fantastic! It was my first time going for OPM and staying on till 5, so naturally, I was excited. I've never prayed so long in my entire life or worshiped God so long, and I must say, it was a tremedous feeling being in the palpable presence of God - praising Him, worshiping Him, and praying.

What made it better was that I could do all that without the constraints of worrying about returning home late, or the usual what-have-yous. Really feel much refreshed, and strengthened in my spirit man. God is good. I thought I wouldn't be able to last till 5, but amazingly, the more I prayed, the more awake I become. Thank God for His strength, that I was able to fix my gaze upon Him throughout the whole OPM.

From Romans8:35-40(NLT) -

Can anything ever separate us from Christ's love? Does it mean he no longer loves us if we have trouble or calamity, or are persecuted, or are hungry or cold or in danger or threatened with death? Even the Scriptures say, "For your sake we are killed every day; we are being slaughtered like sheep." No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us. And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from his love. Death can't, and life can't. The angels can't, and the demons can't. Our fears for today, our worries about tomorrow, and even the powers of hell can't keep God's love away. Whether we are high above the sky or in the deepest ocean, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.
