Last month myself and a team of 20 from the Leadership track were led to go to Amsterdam for two weeks. We went mainly to pray and meet with leaders on the ywam base and the ministries that the base has in the red light district. The tabernacle (house of prayer) and the lighthouse (anti-trafficking ministry) are dedicated to revival in Amsterdam and seeing the red light district closed down!
I was so encouraged in prayer to know that the Lord is so much more dedicated to the city than we could ever be. I believe that his heart is to use these ministries and women that are rescued and restored from protitution to fight human trafficking head on and help to restore a broken city and the church that has lost its voice.
If you feel led to pray for the city here are some prayer points:
1.The key to effective intercession: pray for Gods heart for the Nation.
2.That the Lord would send long term laborers with a heart to intercede.
Matthew 9:37-...the harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few
3.For the specific women that are working in the district right now that God is calling to be leaders in his church. He created them, he knew them in their mothers womb, he has a purpose and a plan for their lives! Pray for their freedom, pray that they would be open to know their Lord and savior!
4.Battle spiritual strongholds over the city with the opposite spirit:
Lonliness with Revelation of the Fathers love
Passivity with Boldness
Greed with Generosity
Lies with truth
Hard Heartedness with Compassion
Lust/Perversion with Purity
