Celebrating Black Inventors (Part O&P)

I had a wonderful experience this morning during prayer... pretty hard to explain, but I'll try. As I was praying, I got quiet and still. I heard God in my spirit tell me that He will use a light to show me who He wants me to pray for. Nothing like this have I experienced in a long while, and that was in 1992 during Hurricane Andrew. That same light that saved our house was the light that I saw this morning (13 years later). Anyway, Pastor had a meeting with about 60 of us and said that he wants us to take leadership roles in the church and we are going to be prayer ministers. We will be the ones that pray for people in the church during praise and worship. And I think what God was showing me was a bunch of people standing at the alter for prayer and He was showing me people who He was going to heal through me.
