A Few Stories from MDOP Coordinators
“Our MDOP was awesome! There were six hours of non-stop praying. Our ministry assistant came out during our time of prayer to show us a praise report that one woman had already emailed in. The praises continue to flow into my email box. I get statements of how much depth there was, how the Holy Spirit was so obviously hovering over us, how one depressed woman was lifted up, and how another woman was convicted of her lack of commitment to regular prayer.”
“MDOP is so important, Kathy. I am praying that 2008 will also be a year of MANY answered prayers for all of the children around the world.”
“There are no words to explain how God moved at our MDOP. Every woman who attended left changed. Hope was renewed, faith was restored and women were refreshed. This was the first day of a new prayer strategy for all of us. We were well represented with elderly and young women, black and white, Protestant and Catholic and all of us alike in that we cried out to God for the children.”
Glory to God in the Highest!
MDOP – A Tool Used to Promote Prayer Groups
MDOP is a wonderful way to promote praying with a regular prayer group throughout the year. At each MDOP, I encourage the Coordinators to display Moms In Touch International brochures and any other prayer group information that meet in their areas. I continue to hear over and over how the MDOP was not just about that one day but that it encouraged those attending to find ways to pray all year long with other women in their community.

From Kathy:
It continues to amaze me that some people really do not believe that I ever want to just give up. Let me set the record straight today – there are times that I become so discouraged that I DO want to quit and say, “Lord, I give up! Help me!”
My Moms In Touch International Stand Firm calendar says for the first week of September the following:
“Unwavering Faith, Romans 4:20-21, “Yet he (Abraham) did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God, being fully persuaded that God had power to do what he had promised.”
Abraham did not know the way, but he knew the Guide. Lee Roberson
The key word that came to me through that devotion is “strengthened”. I cannot give myself the strength to do anything. The power comes from Almighty God as I humbly ask Him for HELP. God loves it when we give up trying in our own strength and turn to him and say – “Help.”
Do you want to give up today? With all my heart, I want to encourage you to do as the song says, “Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus.” He is our source of strength when we want to give up.
My Challenge to you today is not to give up. No matter what you are going through, no matter what unanswered prayer hovers over you, no matter who has hurt you and hurt you deeply, no matter the diagnosis that has come your way, no matter what – God is waiting and willing to strengthen you from your cries of HELP.
God is on Our Side! God bless each of you, Kathy, Phil. 4:13
