Prayer Letter From Silas: A Message Through Dorian
【Editorial Note: Brother Silas Titus is the founder of the Wall Street Prayer Alliance, which is a strategic house of prayer that pray for all nations for the economic sphere. We will periodically reprint his “Prayer Letter From Silas”.
Chuck Pierce once spoke about Florida being the “backbone” of the nation. If the backbone is broken or destroyed, how does one stand.” This prayer letter provides insightful directives to pray for the coming hurricane Dorian. We invite you, the global intercessors, to join us in prayers and stand with us in unity. 】
August 30, 2019
President Trump tweeted, “Hurricane Dorian looks like it will be hitting Florida late Sunday night. Be prepared and please follow State and Federal instructions, it will be a very big Hurricane, perhaps one of the biggest!”
The word Dorian comes from the Greek word. It means ‘gift’ or ‘child of the sea.’ Hurricanes are children of the sea.
A hurricane can only form over water and water that is warm. Then you need some unstable air moving over warm water. Warm water symbolizes misinterpretation or defilement of God’s word in the land or the people. The unstable air symbolizes the spirit of darkness. As a result a tropical depression is formed. If the clouds and storms become better organized, it then becomes a tropical storm. Finally, if the storm develops into intense tropical thunderstorms and becomes well organized with a really strong circulation, it could become a hurricane. Hurricanes are defined by a circulation with winds 74 mph or greater. As you can see the storm is formed step by step. And it takes a few days or weeks for winds to form into the force of the capacity of an hurricane.

Daily Updated Prayers
Pursuing Intimacy With God: The Cup of Salvation
Psalm 116:13 “I will lift up the cup of salvation and call on the name of the Lord.”
Dear Abba Father,
This morning, I want to tell You: Thank You Father, for giving me a mouth that I may praise You. Thank You for healing me from brokenness into liberating freedom. Thank You for giving me a church family full of Your love that we may encourage and build up one another. How I thank You, during the 40-day prayer and fasting, for teaching me to lean deeper and closer to Your heart and listen to Your words. How precious are Your thoughts toward me! How great is the sum of them! Oh Father, I lost count of the endless grace You have shown me; my heart is so full of gratitude toward You…
Abba, what can I do for You today? Oh, Father, I want to lift up the cup of salvation to You and bless Your name! (Psalm 116:13) I hold my heart in the palm of my hand and enter the secret place; as I hand my heart over to You, softly I utter, “Abba Father, I love You!”
In the name of Jesus I pray, Amen!
Repentance for Church 04
- 2 Timothy 4:2-4 : each the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all long suffering and teaching. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.
- Matthew 16:24-25 : Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.”
Lord, please forgive us for not allowing You to rule and reign in every part of our lives. We are annoyed with sound doctrine. We resent warning messages of repentance, self-denial, and the cross. We follow our selfish desires and doing things in our rebellious ways. We choose to listen to grace and prosperity theology. We lack the willingness to endure sufferings; enjoy easiness and not willing to leave our comfort zone, won’t “ let go” of wealth, position and social relationships we have, just like the rich young ruler in the Bible. We only want to satisfy our own desires and fulfill our wishes, but unwilling to pay the price and sacrifice for You.
Lord, have mercy on us for not devote to You. Forgive our weakness and turning our ears away from the truth, the sin of tuning to absurd fables. Lord, we want to turn back to You to renounce false teachings. Please fill us with the mighty power of resurrection, so we are able to love You with all our hearts, souls, strengths and all our minds, and love others as we love ourselves. Lord, reign over all of us. Draw us closer to You daily, willing to take up the cross and run after You to share Your gospel with people struggling with poverty, weakness, and hopeless. Lead us in the way of eternal life till the day we see You face to face.
In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen!

Revival Testimony:David Brainerd and Indian Revival – Revival … is the Result of a Price Paid
David Brainerd (AD 1718-1747) was a preacher to the Indians in the early days of the United States. He brought about the revival and was known as the “Apostle of Indian” Born in 1718, he studied at Yale University. He was called to evangelize in the brush area of the Indians in 1742. He died of lung disease in 1747. He was under 30 years old. Although his service time was not long. But there is no story as glorious and magnificent than David Brainerd. His story influenced William Carey’s to go to India for mission, and inspired John Wesley and well-known South Africa missionary Andrew Murray. There are no other miracles that prove the truth of Christian faith more than his life and work. He was alone in the wilderness where the Native Americans lived, struggling with deadly diseases day and night, most of the time he could only relied on one Indian aborigine who believed in the Lord to translate for him in order to have contact with the Indians, but with the words of God in his hands and his heart, and the flaming fire of God burning in his spirit, he spent most time in prayer, and poured his heart out to God, thus establishing the church of God, and received the effect full of grace of God. … Detailed Reading

Prayer Letter From Silas: A Message Through Dorian
President Trump tweeted, “Hurricane Dorian looks like it will be hitting Florida late Sunday night. Be prepared and please follow State and Federal instructions, it will be a very big Hurricane, perhaps one of the biggest!”
The word Dorian comes from the Greek word. It means ‘gift’ or ‘child of the sea.’ Hurricanes are children of the sea.
A hurricane can only form over water and water that is warm. Then you need some unstable air moving over warm water. Warm water symbolizes misinterpretation or defilement of God’s word in the land or the people. The unstable air symbolizes the spirit of darkness. As a result a tropical depression is formed.

Hurricanes are defined by a circulation with winds 74 mph or greater. As you can see the storm is formed step by step. And it takes a few days or weeks for winds to form into the force of the capacity of an hurricane.
Prayer of repentance with scripture declaration during hurricane Dorian:
When there is a sign of calamity, one thing we can do is repent whether one is a believer or unbeliever. God heard the prayer and humbling of Nineveh even though they were outside the covenant of being God’s people like Israel. Prayer and repentance needs to start with us the people of God. “If My people who are called by My name…” (2 Chro 7:14).
The book of Hosea is about God’s visitation on the northern House of Israel, the
House of Joseph, also called Ephraim. Many Bible scholars compare the USA to Manasseh and the English Commonwealth nations to Ephraim. These group of nations have become a Great Nation and a Company of Nations (Gen 35:11, Gen 48:19).
It is prophesied that the children of Ephraim will come shaking from the west! (Hos 11:10). Is the shaking God is causing in the western world a reminder for America to humble and repent before the Lord?
- The iniquity of Ephraim is bound up; his sin is laid up in store (Hosea 13:12). Has the sins and iniquity of the western church and America reached the high mark? Because of the Lord’s mercy He is still giving us
time to repent. - The throes of a travailing woman shall come upon him; he is an unwise son; for it is time he should not tarry in the place of the breaking forth of children (Hosea 13:13). The Lord wants to birth great things through the remnant in America while know that the enemy’s plan is for Ephraim to not to give birth. The Lord is warning us not to be distracted and be as an unwise son. You can be a son and daughter of God and still be unwise. The verse is a warning to all that are carrying the destiny and purposes of the
Lord and haven’t seen it fulfilled yet. It is not yet time to give up. To give birth is not easy as any woman who has given birth wouldn’t deny. However, because of the distractions, pressure, storm and so on we tend to take our focus off the Lord instead of pursuing and giving birth in this strategic time. The Bible says to be zealous and repent because He still loves us and as a result He disciplines us (Rev 3:19). - Shall I ransom them from the power of the nether-world? Shall I redeem them from death? Ho, thy plagues, O death! Ho, thy destruction, O nether-world! Repentance be hid from Mine eyes! (Hosea 13:14). Know that only He can spare us from being destroyed in this fallen world. The enemy comes to steal, kill and destroy but there is one who can rescue us from the power of death.
- For though he be fruitful among the reed-plants, an east wind shall come…(Hosea 13:15). Hurricane Dorian is a wind from the east forming in the Caribbean and expected to hit Florida.
- Intercessors stretch your hand against the direction of the wind Dorian just like Moses stretched out his hand over the sea. And we know the outcome. The LORD swept the sea back by a strong east wind (Exodus 14:21).
- “You blew with Your wind, the sea covered them; They sank like lead in the mighty waters” (Exodus 15:10). The same wind that came to destroy us He can reroute to pursue your enemies instead. Pray that His enemies be drowned in the water that work towards our destruction.
- “By His breath the heavens are cleared; His hand has pierced the fleeing serpent.” (Job 26:13) Pray that the Lord’s breadth clear the thunder clouds and the Lord’s hand will deal with the old serpent.
- Who has ascended into heaven and descended? Who has gathered the wind in His fists? Who has wrapped the waters in His garment? Who has established all the ends of the earth? What is His name or His son’s name? Surely you know! ( Pro 30:4). Declare and call out this only name. His name is Jesus.
- He sends forth His word and melts them; He causes His wind to blow and the waters to flow (Psalm 147:18). Ask the Lord-the only one who can send forth His word, cause the wind to blow and water to flow and declare “Peace, Be still”. He who created the wind, “rebuked the wind and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm” (Mark 4:39).
- Also note another purpose for which He uses wind and fire. “He makes the winds His messengers, Flaming fire His ministers” (Psalm 104:4). “You lift me up to the wind and cause me to ride; And You dissolve me in a storm.”(Job 30:22). And it came about when the LORD was about to take up Elijah by a whirlwind to heaven… there appeared a chariot of fire and horses of fire (2 Kings 2:1,11). As intercessors we are called to communion with Him and in fervent prayer like Elijah and Elisha. As we continue in the communion with Him, the wind and fire of the Holy Spirit does a work of purification, cleansing and transformation and translation in our lives like with Elijah.
- He commanded, and raised the stormy wind, which lifted up the waves thereof; (Psalms 107:25) and causes us to be “tossed to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man,”(Psalms 107:27). Thus He causes man to
come to the end of his wits and his wisdom be swallowed up (Psalms 107:27) By the powers of nature, the Lord has promised us that if we cry unto the LORD in our trouble, he brings us out of our distresses (Psalms107:28). He made the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof were still (Psalms 107:29). So they rejoiced that the waves became quiet, and he led them to their desired haven (Psalms 107:30). Jesus demonstrated the Psalms 107 promise in the Gospels when He was with the disciples in the boat. He has done the same again and again over the past two thousand years and in our generation. He still speaks today, “Peace Be Still.” He speaks Shalom into the storms of our lives. He speaks stillness into our panic, anxiety, fear, worry and negative talking as we face great giants and threatened with devastating hurricanes. - Jesus, at the end of the story of the storm rebukes His disciples. And He said to them, Why are you so fearful? How is it that you have no faith? (Mark 4:40). This rebuke on fear and lack of faith is a good reminder for us as intercessors in our journey on the boat with Jesus. And they were terribly frightened and began to say to one another, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?” (Mark 4:41). Instead of becoming fearful disciples, He is bidding us to come to know the One “Who even the wind and the sea obey him?” in a deeper and intimate way.
May this be our prayer during the 40 days prayer, Lord, I want to see you clearly, hear you distinctly and know you intimately like never before. God bless us!

Nation / Global Critical Event: Pray For Mongolia – The New Army Force of The Lord
【Background: Mongolian Genghis Khan plundered the Eurasia to establish an empire in the 13th century. In 1921, he separated from China and became an independent nation and practiced communism until 1990. Christianity increased from 4 believers to more than 40,000 since 1989. Discipleship and leadership training are urgent tasks for today’s church.
Spiritual Situation: After the collapse of the communist regime, and when Mongolian youth encounter issues with health, financial and relationship, most of them are superstitious and involved in divination; the total population of Buddhism is 52%, 38% atheist, and 2.9% Shamanism. Mongolian churches are mostly energetic young people, leading worship and preaching the gospel. The church actively builds mature and firm foundations, sending missionaries to areas that are not possessed, and there is 2.1%. Christianity.
The Climate Is Bad: Mongolia is located in the north of the Gobi Desert. The land is barren. In the past 30 years, there was no grassland. In the global financial crisis in 2008, 8 million livestock died in the winter in Mongolia, and 600,000 migrants moved into the capital. Today, Mongolia is one of the fastest growing economies in the world, with untapped mineral resources and attracting foreign investment.
Social Concern: The new market economy benefits only a few people, and most people are extremely poor. Crime, alcoholism, prostitution and migrants are socially difficult issues.

- Staggering 16 million adults have at least one major depressive order in 2018.
- 26% of homeless adults staying in shelters live with serious mental illness.
- 21.4% of youth aged 13-18 experience severe mental disorder, same at 13% for aged 8-15.

- Biological factors
- Early life experience
- Trauma and stress
- Personality factors (perfectionism and low-self esteem increase risk of Depression or Anxiety).
The effective Mental Illness Treatment (Mat. 4:24)
The beliefs about the ‘character’ of God determined the effects of one’s prayer for mental health. Believing God is a source of comfort and strength resulting in fewer symptoms of anxiety and disorders. Faith and spirituality linked to better health habits, including less smoking and alcohol consumption, spirituality helps regulate emotions.】

Pray for Israel: Intercede Concerning Anti-Semitism
【Background: The anti-Semitism practices have led to disastrous consequences in history. Since the Roman Empire, European history was filled with violent acts against the Jews, such as the Crusader looting and massacring Jews. However, the culmination of anti-Semitism was the Holocaust by Nazi Germany between 1933 and 1945 when 6 million Jews perished. In addition, regrettably, the leader of the Reformation, Martin Luther, with his strong anti-Semitic rhetoric, has contributed significant anti-Semitic influence in Germany and around the world. Today, many churches still believe in the replacement theology.
Anti-Semitism is growing at an alarming rate today. Many statistics show that the degree of anti-Semitism now is equivalent to that before the second World War. Today, God’s chosen people is still suffering on many fronts. Surrounded by Arab countries, many of Israel’s neighbors are threats to her, for example, Palestine, Iraq, Syria, Lebanon and Iran. As Israel continues to face natural calamities as well as man-made disasters, the church must pray for her, our spiritual elder brother, with love and actions. 】

Since I returned from Taiwan. I came back with the revelation of how the Blessings from the land of correct alignment are together. I came back and worked in plants I planted 15th years ago.
I didn’t not use any fertilizer, just the revelation.
This is a key element that has been lost and stolen among First Nations.
I have never had such a harvest of blueberries, it’s a record.
Before Taiwan I have given up on them, I have been mowing them down over the past few years because they didn’t produce much.
This year I trimmed back all that was dead and put down plastic to keep the weeds out.
In this growing zone because of the high elevation grapes are not supposed to grow.
I planted about 5 vines,15 years ago and have only 2 left.
I pruned and trimmed vines I almost mowed down 1 vine was just a stub.
Grapes that are not supposed to grow in this zone are growing.
Usually the apples in this zone don’t produce, some years we may get some but not very good apples. This year is a record year, the most in 20 years. Here is the amazing part, they are without spot or blemish. Very round and perfect. Generally they are deformed and have worms and spots and blemishes. Never this record crop. All the trees are like this.I planted some butternut trees 15 years ago. They have never produced. This year I have 2 nuts.I have a record number of doves living in the area. Some years we have had a couple come and go, but this year I have seen as many as 10 together and they are staying here. They are here every day singing.
Our Heavenly Creator is speaking from the land.

Pray for Hong Kong – Supernatural Transformation in the Next 10 Days
【Current Event: Since June 9th Hong Kong has been marked with protests and, in recent weeks, those protests have turned violent. Corruption has been exposed to the whole world. It is a time when everything is polarized and, even within families, people are split and at odds with each other. The global economy has even been impacted. As things begin to come to a head, there is a looming sense of fear over what will happen next that has settled over the city. It is vitally important we do not respond with fear of what seems to be impending upon our city, but rather it is in this time that we are called to pray and discover God’s heart for our city and His heartbeat for everyone within our city, and find ways to partner with Him. It’s time we speak boldly what He is saying and proclaim it loudly to any who have an ear to hear. It is time to arise in faith and not let our hearts be disheartened.
Hong Kong’s Unique Call: God has a specific call and purpose for Hong Kong. We see it through our city’s unique history and culture. For over a century, Hong Kong has stood as a gateway city for the Gospel to both China and even to much of Asia. God has miraculously preserved Hong Kong in the past 50 years, to be both a city of refuge and a city on a hill. It has a call to both influence and to serve.
Esau’s Stew: In this spiritual fight, it is important for Hong Kong to beware of “Esau’s stew,” that is, an easy way to satisfy a legitimate hunger at the price of giving up its birthright. In Genesis, Esau was ravenously hungry, so his brother decided it would be a good idea to sell a bowl of his stew in return for Esau’s birthright, and in an act of haste to satisfy his legitimate hunger, Esau sold his birthright.
Hong Kong, God Is With You, He is for you, and His purposes are filled with hope in your regard. Your light will shine and you will be a city on a hill. My heart will be revealed through this city. Even as I have lifted you from your shame, you will lift others from their shame and help cause them to shine. I am not through here, I am just beginning.”
Young Generation in Hong Kong: Young generation is being discovered with the passion of God’s heart for justice, and they will rebuild the foundation of this city with righteousness and justice. More high-level corruption will be revealed, the system that hinders Hong Kong’s calling will be removed, the dividing walls will be demolished, rise up many healers and builders to pave the way for Hong Kong’s restoration.
Would you join us for the next ten days? I would encourage you to receive communion on a daily basis as a reminder of all that He promises His people, and that we have been given full access to these great and mighty promises through His Cross, and that with Him all things are possible.

Revival Testimony:David Brainerd and Indian Revival – Revival … is the Result of a Price Paid
David Brainerd (AD 1718-1747) was a preacher to the Indians in the early days of the United States. He brought about the revival and was known as the “Apostle of Indian” Born in 1718, he studied at Yale University. He was called to evangelize in the brush area of the Indians in 1742. He died of lung disease in 1747. He was under 30 years old. Although his service time was not long. But there is no story as glorious and magnificent than David Brainerd. His story influenced William Carey’s to go to India for mission, and inspired John Wesley and well-known South Africa missionary Andrew Murray. There are no other miracles that prove the truth of Christian faith more than his life and work. He was alone in the wilderness where the Native Americans lived, struggling with deadly diseases day and night, most of the time he could only relied on one Indian aborigine who believed in the Lord to translate for him in order to have contact with the Indians, but with the words of God in his hands and his heart, and the flaming fire of God burning in his spirit, he spent most time in prayer, and poured his heart out to God, thus establishing the church of God, and received the effect full of grace of God.
But before David Brainerd began to live by faith, he lived under the influence of legalism for a long time. He believed that people must rely on deeds to earn God’s grace, but few months after his 21st birthday, on a Sunday afternoon, when he walked into a dense forest, an indescribable glory opened his eyes, he was able to see that God’s will is the source of peace and joy for a person, from that point on he was willing to do God’s will without counting the cost. It became the driving force in his life.
David. Brainerd was willing to dedicate his life to serve Christ. All he could see was: The only way to accomplish this will, he must become a pastor to preach the gospel; but not the way he used to think, to earn salvation for himself, because he now knows it is the unmerited grace of God. You can’t buy with money, nor pay any price. In order to achieve this call, he must be trained, so he entered Yale University, or Yale College was the name at the time.
When he was 24 (1742), he was examined by a pastor’s association and received a certificate allowing him to preach. (He was later appointed as a pastor on June 10, 1944). He said: “After the exam, I felt that I love God very much. I prayed with one of the pastors, then went to bed and decided to live faithfully to God.” Then a mission group hired him as their missionary and sent him to live in New York, New Jersey, and to the Red Indians on the borders of Pennsylvania doing evangelism. This was the turning point of David’s life. He believed that this is God’s call for him. He was so convinced of this, he accepted this appointment with joy and gratitude, and look at this mission as if he had received it directly from the hands of God.
In the spring of 1743, he bid farewell to his relatives and friends, leaving the family and comfort, to face the hardships and dangers. However, David was extremely frustrated in the first few weeks, and the challenge of language and bad weather were all problems. But his greatest disappointment was that the reaction of the Indians to the gospel were indifference. Of course, the first thing a missionary must do was to learn the language of the local people. Although he worked hard to learn the language of the Indians, he progressed slowly, so he rode from time to time to seek help from a missionary who worked among the Indians about twenty miles away. So most of the time he relies on English-speaking Indians to interpret him
David soon discovered later that the reason Indians were so skeptical and disregarded the message he gave, was because they had suffered a lot in the hands of the white people. So, it was only when he lived with the Indians in a house made of wood and turf for a while, that was when they began to trust him and listened to what he had to say. In those days, David was extremely lonely. In order to reach the tribes scattered around, David often must traveled hard, sometimes by horse, sometimes walking, he often went through the wilderness, swamps, mountain climbing, thorns, through dense forests, climbing over the cliffs. Sometimes he had to walk 15 miles to buy bread. In the effort of saving time and trouble, he had to put the bread in storage, by the time he ate it, it had already become hard and moldy. Teaching these what David often called “poor Indians required extreme endurance. When their doubts toward him were slightly lessened, he again attempt to gently guide them step by step to gain the knowledge of Christ. They were so ignorant that even the simplest truths must be repeated and repeated to have comprehension.
When David taught and preached, he still had to rely on translators because his Indian language was not enough. There was a long period of time he had to work with non-Christian translators, but because they did not understand the truth of the Christian faith, their translations were not always reliable and accurate. He was eager to have a Christian translator, but since there was still no Indian who believes in the Lord that can do that kind of work. The translator who served him for a long time was the best he could get, and his behavior improved a lot. He used to be a well-known drunker, but now he drank less, and he often showed real interest in the information he was translating. Later David heard him advising his fellow Indians to abandon their paganism and return to Christianity, although he himself had not done this. One day, when the translator stood next to the young missionary and translated his message one sentence at a time, David noticed that he seemed to be greatly moved. David hoped that he could really give his life to the Lord Jesus this time. But it was not easy to change a 50-year-old of his lifetime believe. When the meeting was over, the man went home without saying a word. In the next few days, he was very uneasy about sin and could not even sleep. One day, he went to David and was extremely grieved. Just like Philippi’s jailer in prison, he asked David, “What can I do to be saved?” David also answered him in Paul’s words: Believe in the Lord Jesus, you can be saved.” After the translator was born again, his ministry was completely different. When David preached with power, the translator seems to have the same inspiration, his translation was also full of passion of fire. They became the happiest companions in the ministry of evangelism.
Spiritual awakening
David Brainerd was never satisfied with his achievements. He often spurred his sick body to work harder, often at the end of the day, he prayed wholeheartedly for the repentance of the Indians. He did not believe that his efforts could change the Indians. Because only God could do this, that is why he would spend a lot of time praying, asking God to make him a wise and faithful messenger, give him the right words to say, so that he could lead the Indians to trust in Jesus Christ.
One Sunday morning, he had a very special burden. He said: “When I woke up, my spirit was stressed by the responsibility in front of me. Before I got out of bed, I cried out to God. After I got dressed, I immediately retreated into the woods and poured the heavy burdens in my inner being unto God. Asking especially for God to help me in this major work, because I could no longer think of anything else. With an unreserved openness, I re-dedicated myself to God, live or die, willing to endure the suffering He ask of me among non-believers, I deeply felt that nothing can discourage me from this blessed work.” Even on the journey, he asked God to bless the people God want him to go to evangelize. In a trip he said: “As I rode three hundred miles away to the Indian, my heart continued to rise to the throne of God in heaven, asking Him to be with me and help me” Hoping and almost anticipating that, that will be the day God will give power and grace to his poor Indians.”
When the Indians came to David Brainerd and asked, “What can I do to be saved?” was the fulfillment of his missionary dream, there was an indescribable joy inside him. Now that the entire tribe had been influenced by his evangelism, the drunkenness was greatly reduced, and he was able to witness the joy of many Indians “coming into Christ in groups.” Sometimes the revival happened suddenly and unexpectedly. Although when there was no special meeting arranged at the time, even David Brainerd himself did not expect the extraordinary thing to happen. The only explanation was that God had answered the countless prayers of this young minister.
Because all the local Indian began to have a very serious concern for their souls. David no longer need to try to get their interest. Whenever he appeared, people immediately gathered from all everywhere, and often did not give him the time or opportunity to dismount, they surrounded his horse, to ask him eagerly to guide them the road to salvation. David sat high on the saddle, and everyone could see and hear. He looked at a large group of people, having the same hunger and thirst for the truth, just like the group Peter preached on Pentecost in Jerusalem; they had the same question: What should we do?”
This very movement, David Brainerd called it “the great awakening of the Indians”, which began in the early summer of 1745. On a Sunday in June, he preached to three or four thousand people. When he preached the love of Jesus and how He took the punishment of their sin on the cross, they listened attentively; David Brainerd invited them to come before the Lord to receive the grace of sin forgiven that Jesus had prepared for them. The scriptures that were spoken that day were Isaiah 53:10: “Yet it was the Lord’s will to crush him and cause him to suffer, and though the Lord makes his life an offering for sin, he will see his offspring and prolong his days, and the will of the Lord will prosper in his hand.” It was a wonderful verse, and the prophet Isaiah, under the leading of the Holy Spirit, prophesized what would happen in Golgotha. When they heard how Jesus suffered, many people wept, opened up their hearts, and accepted Jesus as their Savior. David Brainerd said: “My soul rejoices, because God likes to use me to lead these poor Indians. How happy and exciting it is for me to see the results of my labor!”
This extraordinary interest and concern for the gospel continued for several weeks, and the Indians came to listen to the gospel in droves and accept the invitation to repentance. Sometimes they were so eager to offer themselves to Christ that they couldn’t wait for David to come among them. They came on the street and surrounded the little house, to ask for more instructions. On August 6, 1745, he was twice surrounded by eager people. In the morning they came to his residence, and in the afternoon, they waited in the place where David usually preached the gospel. It was a wonderful experience to preach to a group of people who listen so intently. At that time, it is not hard to see men crying. At the end of the afternoon’s meeting, a group of men stood far away and busted into tears. David went to them to confirm whether they were convicted for their sins. He asked them what do they want the Lord Jesus to do for them; their simple answer was: “We want Him to cleanse our hearts.”
On the second day, on August 7th, David quoted the verse from Isaiah 53 in his preaching and received similar results. After the meeting started, there were Indians came from far distance. As soon as they entered the place, they immediately felt that there was a transcendent power moving, affecting the hearts and minds of all congregations. David wrote: “Things are so wonderful! When they come from a remote place, the Spirit of God immediately grasps them and makes them care for their souls.” On that day, several people accepted Christ as their Savior. However, on August 8th, David witnessed the most brilliant scene of God’s work.
On that day, God’s power seemed to be likened to a huge torrent, covering over the assembly, washing away all obstacles. There were gathering of men, women and children, and many people with the reputation of drunk for many years. Almost everyone felt the need for a Savior, young boys and girls dedicated themselves to the Lord Jesus, and those who had lived a very degrading life for many years repented. However, there were also some white people who heard the rumor that there is a big awakening among the Indians. Some of them came out of curiosity and wanted to see what the gibberish was about. They stood by and scorned the red-skinned Indians becoming Christians. But some of them after hearing the message from David, their conscience were convicted and became brand new Christian, after returning home.
These Indians had finally experienced a great changed, came out from the ignorance and the idolatry, to become pure, passionate, God-loving Christians who learn to live together in harmony, take on their own responsibilities, especially work diligently, no longer in debt. The situation in the past of quarreling, laziness, not attentive to things are now gone; in addition, they have removed the evil customs and tradition, accepted and practiced various duties of Christians; began family worship; the Lord’s Day was observed; the Christian faith as the intrinsic Virtue was also expressed by them.
Holy life
David Brainerd lived a life of holiness and prayer. His diary was full of records of fasting, meditation, spirituality, and prayer. This was the main theme of his diary. He spent a lot of time on prayer every day. He said: “When I came home and devoted myself to meditation and fasting prayer, my spirit pursued to kill everything that was not pleasing to God, and pursued self-denial, humility, and separation from the world.”, “I wanted to have nothing to do with the world, only to labor for God in honestly. I don’t want to live for anything the world can give me not even for a minute.”
Those who have power in prayer are those who have spiritual power. The effect of prayer will never be extinguished. Brainerd’s life was the life of prayer, he prayed day and night; prayed before preaching; prayed while riding through the deserted, endless woods; prayed while lying on a bed made of straw; Prayed in the secret and secluded woods. Day after day, early morning or late at night, he was praying and fasting, pouring out his spirit to God, interceding for people, and fellowshipped with God. His prayers before God were powerful, so God was with him in power and responded to his prayers. On October 9, 1747, David went home to Heaven. Although he was less than 30 when he died, yet he still speak and work today, and will continue to do so until the end come.
