About a year and a half ago, we targeted several available phone numbers which we believed would work for a prayer line. Our goal is twofold: To intercede for Homestead in prayer and to build bridges to the lost by praying for them. For a year and a half, we diligently worked and prayed that we would successfully obtain one and for a year and a half we were told that it is simply not possible. God, however, is bigger than all of the telecommunications companies combined and today, we have a prayer line for Homestead.
We originally got this number because 247 is the most common prefix in Homestead. Someone later pointed out to me (after we had the number) that 247 can mean "24/7" as in "God answers prayer 24/7." This just confirms to me that God gave us what He wanted us to have in His time. So, now it's time to build the prayer line ministry and prepare the 247-PRAY campaign. Until then, I've got the phone and if it happens to ring before the ministry is launched, I'll be happy to pray for them!
