Day of Prayer

Today is the Day of Prayer for Bryan College. Once a semester we take a day off from classes to fast and pray. I went to the Pocket Wilderness with Caleb Beasley.
We stopped to pray by a stream and felt like the Lord released a significant word during our time. Haggai 1:4-- "Is it time for you yourselves to dwell in your paneled houses while this house lies desolate?" While we don't exactly live in paneled houses, we feel that the Lord wants us to contend for his presence to tabernacle here at Bryan College in a greater capacity. 1:7-8-- "thus says the LORD of hosts, 'Consider your ways! Go up to the mountains, bring wood and rebuild the temple, that I may be pleased with it and be glorified,' says the LORD." vs 14 "So the LORD stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spririt of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people; and they came and worked on the house of the LORD of hosts, their God." We desire to be like Zerubbabel, for our hearts to be stirred by God and to consider our ways through the wisdom of God.
