Rhapsody of Fire...and it was so!

The Georgia District WNOP Regional Summons 2020, which occurred November 12-14 in Atlanta, Georgia, was a phenomenal spiritual success and a reflection of the ever increasing dedication and desire for prayer. The visitation from our Lord and Savior will be remembered through the hearts of all who attended for a continual covenant.
The Georgia District Superintendent Darrell Johns and Host Pastor Alonzo Terry, along with the Georgia District Prayer Team, did a tremendous job conducting the conference. In the mist of CDC and government restrictions and adherence to several precautions, 100 -135 people were in attendance and many more watched online. The Lord healed many people, and some reported at the conference how they received their healing and deliverance from the spirit of fear. The anointing was rich, and the prophetic word went forth…Fear not, for I am with thee saith the Lord!
The conference was a resounding success with those who freely participated from the District Board (Pastor Cole, Pastor Waldron, Pastor Holland and Pastor Henry) as amazing workshop speakers. Sister Adrean Rhodes and Pastor Michael Patterson were our younger generational speakers who spoke boldly for positive change to help the next generation. We heard from some compelling and anointed speakers such as Pastor Jason Sciscoe and Sister Flo Shaw (our invited speakers of the hour) who blessed us tremendously. Sister Pamela Hodge and the Georgia District Music Department gave us a spiritual stellar performance in music, songs, praise and worship! The Solid Rock Pentecostal Church Staff in their gifted administration participation was much needed to help us with the event logistics and to steer us from all technical mishaps.
My heart was overwhelmed at the WNOP colleagues who traveled so far to be with us (Pastor John Owens of Rhode Island; Christy Skeens, WNOP photographer from Texas; and Joni Macintosh from Minnesota). Our WNOP Director, Sister Flo Shaw, mentioned we are a team who travel with all expenses paid individually and not by WNOP because “we love the mission.” The Georgia District prayer teams and coordinators who were fasting and praying for the event and attended the conference services, I am so grateful to them. The Eventbrite registrants were 120, including families and individuals who were blessed in the live attendance. Sister Koneaka Brown headed the registration team who closed early in order to stay within the pandemic attendance guidelines and limit of 125 attendees. The job she did was well done!
The saints of God ran the aisles, knelt in prayer, and cried effusively with rhapsody as the presence of God filled the place! The spirit of fear lifted, emotional healing was wrought, and spirits of physical, spiritual, and psychological hindrances were broken, as a deliverance breakthrough prevailed. So many saints shared how blessed they were by attending and watching the conference online. Consequently, a few testimonies, displayed in the “Quotes” below, reflect the impact that this conference had on attendees and viewers!
We look forward to the next Georgia District WNOP Regional Summons in 2022, as the Lord gives us His grace!

Quotes:
Your thought out Prayer Conference went well and the presence of the Lord blessed everyone. We are praying for everyone to stay safe from the COVID-19. ~ Pastor Hofstetter, PBTP Coordinator, District Coordinator, Florida
I’m still gleaming from it!!! I am catching up on it now and listening in the car on my way to work online. The Holy Ghost came in my car so mightily!!! I’m reminded that Jesus is our Hope; we are rising up in Prayer!!! We are in the birthing pains of this revival that God is sending…it’s here. If I’m not mistaken December marks 9 months since COVID-19 started or when it was announced. I can only imagine what God is about to unleash in our land!!! I’m so blessed that the Lord God almighty picked me this year to restore and to put a bigger fire in my soul!!! Keep on keeping on, and don’t lose faith!!! Just know God has got whatever you need!!! He has bigger and better things for His people!!! ~ Sister Dana Jenkins, Pentecostals of Apopka, Florida
The Georgia District WNOP Prayer Summons was amazing! Solid Rock Pentecostal Church hosted this event and they are truly awesome, loving people. Spiritually, so many things took place…who could explain them all! God did the miraculous, layer upon layer. Indeed, He did a mighty work within all of us. No one left the same that is for sure! Regardless of our circumstances, Jesus knew exactly what we all needed. The speakers were outstanding and their messages were woven together beautifully. We were edified, transformed, bound to the Word of God, and to His provision that lies within us. We were strengthened by His authority and grace. Georgia was restored, revived, gifted, blessed, and healed by the Lord’s hand and by His glory. On Friday evening, the divine presence of God swept throughout the place during worship, and there was a powerful breakthrough! We received strength, freedom, and liberty, during a joyful celebration of victory! Praise Jesus! Thank You Georgia! ~ Sister Joni MacIntosh, Refuge of Hope, Minnesota
Praise the Lord, Pastor Gholson, For Christ paid the price; the Holy Spirit makes deliverance actual in experience. The WNOP Conference was dynamic in the aspect of the spiritual as well as the natural. The music was angelic and powerful before and during service. The Word of God from each speaker was needed for such a time as this. We needed a revival of prayer and the warriors took a stance and shifted the atmosphere with all-out rapturous consuming fire. To God be the Glory for the things He has done and is doing in the Spirit right now. II Corinthians 5:7 says, “For we walk by faith, not by sight.” ~ Evangelist Janice M. Moore, Life UPCI, Georgia
Praise the Lord for this conference; it was amazing and it helped us all to grow more in Jesus. The Lord healed many and there was victory. Praise God! I am so thankful for the doors of opportunity that the Lord has opened. I am also thankful to be able to hear and learn from Brother Sciscoe and Sister Shaw's preaching. The Lord moved mightily throughout every service. God brought healing, deliverance, and victory to Solid Rock Church. Praise the Lord! God is good. ~ Sister Jecenia Bugg, Refuge of Hope, Minnesota
The WNOP Georgia conference was amazing. Though the CDC guidelines were in place, the Holy Ghost was able to reach us all. The pre-service prayers were anointed; the singing was electric and so rich with God's blessings; and the preaching that Brother Jason Sciscoe did was unbelievably refreshing. He had us there with the Apostle Paul hanging on in the shipwreck. He paralleled that story with all that we are going through nowadays. It is uncanny. I left Georgia so full of joy and a desire to reach to the next level in the Holy Ghost. I cannot wait until next year for their conference. ~ Pastor Juli Jasinski, WNOP Massachusetts/Rhode Island District Prayer Coordinator/WNOP Kids Prayer Coordinator.
The WNOP Georgia Conference was a Book of Acts experience. The Lord filled the atmosphere with His mighty presences: There was an abundance of the latter rain. I was refreshed, renewed, and restored, in my mind, heart and soul! The zeal of the Lord rekindled my prayer life as the anointing was poured upon me. I will never be the same, in my faith, or prayer life because the fire of the Lord burned everything that was not of Him, and renewed me with the mind of Christ in spirit and truth. I want to thank the Georgia District for allowing our WNOP District Prayer Coordinator Sister Gholson to go forth with the services as she was led of God. Truly, the Lord renewed our souls. ~ Sister Kim Willis, Landmark Pentecostal Church, Georgia
I left the WNOP Georgia Summons inspired and encouraged I was able to stay over for Sunday and there was a spiritual residue in the service that carried over from the Summons. It was probably the most important meeting of the year for the Georgia District although I’m not part of that district, and we pray that it continually impacts that area of the country. Thank you for your vision and for your efforts God bless you. ~ Pastor John Owens, WNOP Promotional Coordinator, Northeast Regional Prayer Coordinator, Men’s Prayer Liaison
Praise the Lord WNOP! What a GLORIOUS time and refreshing of the Lord during the conference time this month. The services impacted us with the serene presence of God and the unity of God's people. We did not just talk about prayer, but prayer was made by prayer leaders to lead the congregation to hear the Word of the Lord by the anointed of the Lord. Our insights and purpose are brighter and clear during these trying times we live in. Thank you for allowing us to be part of the services, and we look to more of God's moving power. ~ First Lady Brenda Conyers, Calvary NLT, Georgia
The Georgia District WNOP Summons was truly a blessing. I received many confirmations! Many things that I am praying and believing God for, was confirmed. All the speakers were amazing! They preached the Word of God. It was a life-changing Prayer Summons. It was so uplifting, and something that the Georgia District needed through this pandemic time. ~ First Lady Orelia Brown, Henry County Pentecostal Church, Georgia
Prayer, Prayer, Prayer is the key to God’s heart. Our cries out to God not only for ourselves, but for those working in the body of Christ, doing kingdom-building; this level of rhapsody fire united us and caused a chain reaction throughout the Spirit realm that put legions to flight. Doors have been opened, mountains have been moved, and the intercession by the saints has taken flight. The music was angelic and powerful before and during service. I am grateful to be known as an intercessor. Thank you so much Georgia District and Sister Gholson for this conference! God showed up. ~ First Lady Debora White, Atone Pentecostal Church, Georgia

PRAYER FOR SPIRITUAL HUNGER & THIRST
“Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled” (Matthew 5:6).
The presence of the Holy Ghost is attracted to us when we create an environment with an attitude of repentance, hunger, thirst, humility, and passion.
Notice how Jesus responds to desperate and hungry people in the scriptures here:
- Matthew 14:28-31 - Peter cries out to Jesus.
- Matthew 15:24-28 -The woman cries out to Jesus.
- Mark 9:24 - A father cries out for his son.
- Luke 18:5-6 - The widow troubles the unjust judge.
- Mark 10:47-50 - Bartimaeus cries out.
We can get Heaven’s attention today with a spirit of unity for this kind of prayer and worship! Reach out to Jesus with passion, thirst, and hunger!
Pray for:
- More of the spirit of holiness to permeate our homes and church, with intensity and conviction, and cleansing power.
- That we hunger and thirst for the manifestation of miracles and healings among God’s people and in our communities.
- An increase of the spirit of prayer in our homes and among our leaders.
- An increase of the spirit of excellence with our church workers, and to do kingdom business with a spirit of excellence and solid work ethics.
- An increase in a conviction among God’s people for commitment to the things of God, and for a fresh burden for souls.
- An increase of repentance and intercession and the spirit of tarrying until we see visible breakthroughs among people and in our communities.
- A hunger for the demonstration of God’s Spirit and for the open defeat of Satan that God’s Word has already declared victory over.
- A hunger for direction for our ministries (as applicable), and for critical family decisions that we have to make.
- For an increase of our vision for the kingdom today, and that it is made more plain and clear to us.
- For God to expose the enemy’s tactics and strategies so we know how and where to fight.
Let’s come to God with repentance, worship, passion, thirst, and hunger, and allow Him to simply dwell among us today, in the name of Jesus!

World Needs:
- Pray for the 12 million Americans who may possibly lose out on the crucial pandemic unemployment assistance program which is set to end just after Christmas.
- Pray for the Lord to resolve the humanitarian crisis that is currently affecting Ethiopia – North Tigray region, and its deadly conflict where civilians in the Tigray region have been massacred.
- Pray for Jesus to protect Christians in China as its Ministry of Justice has drafted new rules to restrict how foreign religious groups and worshipers operate.
- Pray for the Lord to help His people to make it through COVID-19 challenges. America has reported over 100,000 new cases per day for 24 days straight and over 90,000 people are hospitalized with coronavirus; the highest number all year.
