John 4:23, Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks.
We held two Rebuilding an Altar of Fire Worship & Prayer Gatherings this summer (June and August) at the Epicentre in Uptown Charlotte. The very place seems to communicate that what makes you feel good is the center of everything.
RHM went to Greensboro back in February to release Worship & Prayer in Guilford County as a part of our “Go County to County” mandate from the Lord. We also were blessed to equip others from Greensboro as well as New Jersey and South Carolina in apostolic and prophetic intercession.
In preparation for what we called A Gathering of Eagles, we did some spiritual recon of the city and amongst other things we visited the Battlefield of Guilford Courthouse, the Civil Rights Museum, and the statue of the Greensboro Four at NC A&T – we came to see how Greensboro had an “open portal for strategic warfare at a level that impacted our entire nation”. Continue reading July 2016 – Gathering of Eagles Part 2 – Greensboro (Piedmont Triad)
We searched and searched our area’s event pages looking to participate in something that would honor our military during Memorial Day weekend. And alas, what we found were fun family days – carnivals, fairs, cookouts – so we decided to do something.
Our team gathered on Memorial Day at St. Mary’s Chapel in Charlotte as it shared location with the Mecklenburg County Vietnam Veterans Memorial and we offered up worship to our Lord and prayers for all those who served, especially those who gave the ultimate sacrifice in all wars and during peace times, and for their precious families.
To fulfill our county-to-county mandate for Guilford County, we reconnected with a friend, Darrell Nicholson, in the latter part of 2015. Darrell was immediately excited about our coming to Worship & Pray for his county; he even asked us to expand our time there to include some training and we agreed. Continue reading February/March 2016 – Greensboro (Guilford County) & Strategic Warfare
We ventured down to the Sea Isles of Beaufort County on Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s birthday celebration weekend to a region we found out that Dr. King actually frequented to both rest and strategize with his team during the Civil Rights Movement. One of our main intents that weekend was to pray for protection over our Eastern seaboard. There had already been an unctioning to do so; and then different prophetic voices warned of possible trouble coming through our Carolinian Coastal Cities.

As a follow-up to our Staking Our Future Worship & Prayer Gathering held in Gaston County where we focused on the endangered Catawba River, we decided to pray for the River while on the River. The Lord pointed us towards Lake Norman, the closest head water in our area, where the River takes a turn South from its origin in Western NC (Blue Ridge Mountains). Lake Norman is the largest man-made lake off the River and is home to three different types of dams. Continue reading December 2015 – Lake Norman and The Catawba River
“We are in war. Without the restraining force of Holy Spirit being present, the enemy has access. … We are in a new movement where a triumphant people have to rise up. .. We must understand that the only resisting force in the earth – it’s not being religious, it’s not going to church – it’s Holy Spirit amongst us and in us!” Continue reading December 2015 – Concord (Cabarrus County) – Gathering & Commissioning
Back in June after I (Yvonne) booked The Nest in Gastonia for this Gathering, I drove back home through that city via Highway 74 – I could feel the heaviness, the depression in the area as I traveled street-to-street – I especially sensed a spiritual murkiness when I crossed over the Catawba River via the lower bridge. So I made note of it and before this Gathering, I did research on the Catawba River. Continue reading November 2015 – Gaston County and The Catawba River!
Lisa Flynn, our Strategic Prayer Outing Leader, had been concerned for several months about Sanctuary Cities in America and their violation of Federal Immigration laws. My immediate response was to make sure that we prayed the Lord’s heart towards refugees fleeing religious persecution and that our prayers completely lined up with Scripture. But, although on the surface Sanctuary Cities sounded like the Cities of Refuge found in the Word of God, further discussion and research unveiled that they were quite a different matter altogether. Continue reading November 2015 – Carrboro (Orange County) – A Former Sanctuary City
After six months of work and many signs of favor, the day for the Outreach in Union County had finally arrived. The Outreach was designed to just be a launching point for follow-up work in the community that would be done by several churches and ministries.
