PROGRAMMER SPOTLIGHTSHeard on Faith Radio

“If Christians in places of responsibility in the fields of

medicine, law, government, education, the media, and

even the church begin to humble themselves and pray

and seek God's face and turn from their wicked ways,

we could influence this culture and make the presence of

Christ felt top to bottom and bottom to top.”

- Tony Evans, The Alternative, heard weekdays

at 9:30 am

“We have become too self-sufficient to feel the necessity

of redeeming and preserving grace; too proud to pray to

the God who made us. Oh my friend, if ever there was a

time to pray, it’s now.”

- Carter Conlon, It’s Time to Pray, featured throughout

the day and night on Faith Radio

“The Bible makes it clear that prayer is intended as the

line of connection from the heart of the praying person

directly to the heart of God.”

- Ravi Zacharias, Just Thinking, heard weekdays at

12:25 pm

Communities throughout

our listening area have

special places dedicated

for prayer. The Dothan

Prayer House, modeled after

the International House of

Prayer, provides a place for

believers from all denominations

to pray - 24 hours a day, 7 days

a week. Mike Brooks, who

led the way to organize the

house, said, "Our purpose was

revival and unity for our city."

Pictured on the cover is a Faith

Radio cross covered in prayer

requests that is uniquely placed

in the first room of the Dothan

Prayer House. Montgomery has

the House of Prayer located on

the northwest corner of I-85

and Perry Hill Road. It also has

His Vessel Ministries, with its

Watchmen on the Wall pro-

gram, which is described in our

Listener Testimony. Let us know

if you have a special place of

prayer in your community!

from our listeners...“Thank you for the work you are doing for God’s

Kingdom. Through your programs, you are reaching

many people.” - Millbrook, AL

“THANK YOU for your wonderful programming, You

recharge me each time I listen to you.” - Montgomery, AL

“Most every weekday for me begins by listening to

Dr. David Jeremiah at 6:00 am. I listen, most of the day,

to the other programs that bless my heart. I do pray for

you.” - Eclectic, AL

“I want to express in a very small way my appreciation

for all of your programming. I can’t tell you how many

thousands of times I have gotten in my car and

something on one of your programs has been

directly pointed at me. I never fail to feel just

completely blessed and at peace with whatever may

be going on in life.” - Florala, AL

Upcoming Faith Radio Events! It was over 12 years ago that Jo Hancock got desperate for God.

“I needed God in my life and in my situation. I got to the end of myself,

and I didn’t know anywhere else to run except to the throne of God,”

she shared with us recently. “I knew that it was going to be the season

that God taught me the POWER of prayer.”

God did teach Jo, and He used Jo to teach many others! In 2004,

God called Jo and her husband, Keith, to start His Vessel Ministries.

They have discipled hundreds from churches all around the Faith

Radio listening area, and they have helped grow the prayer muscles

of our community.

Jo passionately shared, “I realized what access we have to Father

God through the power of prayer.” She discovered that she had to be

taught how to pray, and now she has a great mission to share what

she learned. Jo has published a discipleship teaching resource

God of Order: The Blueprint for Bringing Peace to the Home. “The

heart of God is that He wants us loving Him and communing with Him

every day,” Jo shared. She teaches the critical importance of a prayer

closet. She references Matthew 6:6, where we are instructed, “go into

your room, close the door and pray...then your Father, who sees what

is done in secret, will reward you.” God delights in us asking and invit-

ing Him to be involved in our life – and when He is invited, He moves!

His Vessel Ministries also covers our community in prayer through

the Watchmen on the Wall program. Individual “watchmen” volunteer

daily to walk the streets of Montgomery while praying and reading

scripture aloud.

Jo prays for and supports our ministry. “Faith Radio is a powerful

trumpet for our region. You send out the message and call the people

together, providing daily encouragement and

hope. You help the body of Christ to know

what is going on and what God is doing so

people can get involved.”

Lord yesterday?”

by Bob Crittenden, host of The Meeting House

God continually calls His peopleto grow deeper in relationship with Him, and a key discipline to that spiritual growth is prayer. Throughprayer, believers have the privilege ofcoming into our Father’s presence andcommunicating with the very God ofthe universe! God calls us to praywithout ceasing and live life in light ofHis constant presence in our lives.Faith Radio wants to encourage you towalk hand-in-hand, side-by-side, withour Savior, who has much to show usabout prayer.

First, prayer is personal.God has invited each of us to

enter His presence, and the way to Histhrone has been provided by Jesusalone. There is one name by which weare saved, and one name in which weare instructed to pray. God desires forone-on-one fellowship between us andHim, and we do that through Jesus.

Next, prayer is practical.Psalm 37:4 says, “Delight yourself

also in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.” Prayer is about aligning our heart’sdesires with those of God. When that happens, we will see God work in powerful ways in our lives and the lives of others. The sound biblicalteaching on Faith Radio can help you align with God’s desires and gain a greater understanding of Himand His will.

Prayer is also powerful.James 5:16 tells us, “the prayer of a

righteous man is powerful and effective.”We are engaged in a spiritual battlethat can only be fought effectivelyusing spiritual weapons. God has provided the armor of God, and theBible instructs us in Ephesians 6 toarm ourselves with it. Our true enemies are not physical, but spiritual,and we must appropriate the spiritualtools that God has made available tous. Prayer is one of those tools.

Finally, prayer can operate in plurality.

When we pray in agreement with other believers, we can see Goddo great things in the midst of achurch, a Bible study group, or a groupof believers united by a common purpose. Faith Radio regularly high-lights how God’s people are working together. The National Day of Prayer,Decision America, MontgomeryHouse of Prayer, and Dothan PrayerHouse are examples of how the bodyof Christ is functioning together in a spirit of unity.

You can pretty much

tell how dependent you

are on God by how often

you feel the

need to cry out to

Him in prayer.

and this year’s events will take place

on Thursday, May 5. Numerous

events will be taking place across the

Faith Radio broadcast area, including

prayer work. - Billy Graham

ELECT

Prayer is an essential component ofthe Christian life, and in the body ofChrist, we are fortunate to have

quality leaders who can inspire us to recognize the importance of prayer anddrawing near to God.

At the recent National ReligiousBroadcasters (“NRB”) convention, I visitedwith several such leaders and featured manyof these conversations on The Meeting House.The current Honorary Chairman of the National Dayof Prayer, Tony Evans of The Alternative, talked withme about his involvement in leading God's people in prayer. Joni Eareckson Tada of Joni andFriends, a former Honorary Chair, also visited us during NRB. This year’s National Day of Prayer is May 5.

Carter Conlon, pastor of Times Square Church,who is featured on It's Time to Pray, was also featuredin a Faith Radio/Meeting House NRB conversation.

This year, Franklin Graham is visiting all 50 statesto call Christians to pray for the direction of ournation. Montgomery will be the site of one of theseDecision America prayer meetings on Thursday, April 14, at the State Capitol. Tom Phillips, who is theVice-President in charge of DecisionAmerica, was an NRB guest.

We also spoke with individuals such as Satish Kumar, pastor of India's largestand the world's third-largest church, andStorly and Kate Michel of 4VEH thatbroadcasts Faith Radio programming inHaiti. These conversations remind us of thevastness of the body of Christ and thetremendous work God is doing throughoutthe world.

The Meeting HouseConversation Topics at NRBInclude Importance of Prayer


Tony Evans of The Alternative stopped by atNRB and discussed his involvement with theNational Day of Prayer, May 5.
