This past Sunday the South Carolina Baptist Convention set up an interactive prayer room in our church and it was amazing. There were stations to praise God the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit. There were stations of confession and repentance. You also had an opportunity to write out specific prayer requests and place them at the foot of the cross. We also had an opportunity to pray for missions and missionaries around the world and for church planters. There were so many opportunities to wait, listen, knell, lay prostate before God, plead, cry, and embrace Christ. However, the atmosphere may have had the biggest impact. There was soft lighting and it was in a tent like structure with soft music in the background. This provided and escape and an opportunity to unplug from this world and seek Christ uninhibited by anything that may distract. You could spend an hour in that room and not even know it. Wow, how many times have I forfeited God’s peace because I was too busy to seek Him.
