I’ve no idea how I managed to forget to blog about this, but we’ve had some recent success in the old spiritual warfare with regards to closing some buildings!
The first one was quite a few months ago…a sex shop (sorry, a massage parlour!!) in Hotwells, Bristol. It is on the route back to Pill from the city and every time I passed I asked the Lord to close it. Ann, our Assistant Sergeant-Major, had been praying the same as she passed on the bus each day. Within a few months the ‘For Sale’ signs were up on the shop. Hallelujah!
Secondly, late last summer we led a prayer walk around our community, involving other Christians from other churches, and we stopped outside the Railway Inn and asked the Lord to close it. Within a few months the pub was boarded up and no longer in business. The Lord answers prayer.
We pray that those employed in those businesses will find other suitable employment.
yours
Andrew
