Dear Brothers,
Something happened in the last several months of our Living Proof Live women’s events that we’ve never seen before. Groups of men felt compelled by God to band together and intercede for the women attending the event in their city. The occasions were completely unrelated to one another. We knew God was stirring it up when the lead-out event with a covering of men was in Canada. Not only were we thrilled and grateful for their participation around these events through prayer. We saw remarkable works of God and felt that He’d nodded over the unity and mutual esteem. And, to tell you the truth, just feeling significant to them felt significant. We believe deeply that God honored the way these brothers in Christ honored their sisters. He listened, He approved, and He responded. The willingness of these men to do the work of intercession in our behalf humbled us, blessed us, and brought us a unique joy before God. Esteem is a powerful form of love and it was not lost on us.
This coming Saturday, September 15th, well over 150,000 of your sisters in Christ will gather through a Living Proof Live simulcast for a fresh encounter with God from 9:30 – 4:15 Eastern Standard Time. If God has His unhindered way, this could be a true revival of faith for many women. That’s what I feel He’s purposed for it and called me to specifically request from Him. A goal like that is completely out of human hands. I can’t study hard enough for what I’m asking. We can’t pray long enough or prepare well enough. Our knees are down, our faces are up, and our Bibles are open but what we need is Heaven wide-open and grace spilled down in a drenching flood. We want God to reveal Himself in a way we can’t ignore or recover from the next week.
Recently my eyes fell on a little 4-word verse (in the ESV) at the conclusion of the First Letter to the Thessalonians: Brothers, pray for us. I stared and stared at it and thought, sometimes you just up and ask for it. And that’s what your sisters are doing right now. Based on what we’ve already seen God initiating in the hearts of men these last few months, would you graciously commit to pray for us on Saturday? Or even right now toward Saturday? We’re not asking you to do anything particularly formal or in groups. We’re just asking as many brothers as possible to pray on their own for a large group of sisters meeting in the name of Christ and the Word of God. By all means, we want the prayers of many husbands of participants but we’re really asking for something broader. We’re asking for brothers to pray for sisters they may never meet. We’re asking you to pray for a harvest that you may personally never see.
We’re asking for some young men to pray and some old men to pray. We’re asking for some single men to pray, some husbands to pray and some widowers to pray. We’re asking some student ministers to pray and some senior pastors to pray. If some of you happen to feel led to go the extra mile and fast through lunch on Saturday in order to be more focused in prayer, who are we to argue? We’ll receive it! There are no rules or restraints on the process. Just do it however God leads in the name of Christ.
If you’re willing, we’d be tremendously encouraged if you’d give us an idea of the of support system we have among you by leaving a brief comment to this post. All we’d request is your name and your city. It could be as simple as this:
Keith Moore in Houston, Texas.
If you’re a pastor or you serve at a church or in a ministry, we’d also love to know where.
If you’re not that enthusiastic about signing on the dotted line here through a comment, no worries! Just pray!
We don’t just want your prayers. We need them. So many women out there feel like they’re drowning in an ocean of demands or evaporating in a desert. They need courage and encouragement. Lord, have mercy, I do, too. This is no culture for Christian cowards. You certainly know that.
Please fight for us.
We will gladly repay this debt of love and pray for you.
Thank you so much, gentlemen. Believe God for us and may God backwash immense blessing right over you. By the way, the main host site for this Saturday’s gathering is in Reading, Pennsylvania…at The Sovereign Center. Yep. We’ll take that.
“He who is the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords…To Him be honor and eternal dominion. Amen.”
In His unfathomable love,
Beth
I will definitely be praying for you all. Love you

Praying…for all Women’s ministries, leaders in mininstry, authors, speakers and leaders in our nation.
Thank you for your service to the Lord. God bless each one of you LPM _ ladies and men!
Let us recognize who you are, God
That nothing can substitute for the love
You have given us.
No earthly treasure could be worth more than what
You have for us now and in the future
That nothing can bring true happiness,
Peace and joy into our lives
Or take the pain, sorrows and heartaches of this world
and be used for Your purposes and glory
That nothing can be better than what
You have planned for our lives
And Your love for us is the greatest kind of love,
that sacrifices, that gives, and brings us hope.
Let us recognize who you are, God
For Your greatness, your powerfulness,
Your strength, Your character, and Your love.
Let us recognize who you are, God
In a personal way, so we may not ever forget
Who our Creator, Provider, Protector, Forgiver,
Our all-knowing, everlasting, Substainer of Life is!
We praise You, God for who you are! ~joyce
Thank you this poem. Passing on! Total blessing.
Praying for a mighty move of God!

Curtis Jones at Houston, TX
I am praying for a fresh work of faith. That hearts would be exposed, healed, and set free. For lasting, visible change to take place. And finally for a tangible sense of joy in every leader and participant.
I stand and pray for our wives and sisters. I pray they will be godly women as called by The Father to minister to a lost world. How beautiful are the feet of them that bring good news.
I will pray for you all. Because of my relationship to this ministry and seeing it work in the lives of the most important women in my life, you are always on my heart.
Just prayed and will be on my mind and in my prayers the rest of the week as my wife joins via simulcast.
Allan Atchley, Associate Pastor, Mt. Lebanon Baptist Church, Maryville, TN
I am praying the Lord does an incredible and gracious work in the hearts of women this Saturday.
Several men at First Baptist Church Lee’s Summit are meeting Friday night to pray by name for the women who will be attending the simulcast at our church. We’re honored to be a part of what God wants to do in the lives of those ladies!
That is awesome– what a tremendous thing for you all to do
Praying!
Praying for sisters, wives, moms and grandmoms.

You will have my prayer support. I have loved seeing the effect of your telecasts and the e-mails & tweets among you and the “siestas” have had in my wife’s life. Being a pastor’s wife isn’t always easy, and she has drawn consistent strength and inspiration from all of you. Thank you. My prayers will be with you Saturday, and with all who are part of the telecast in the days following…
I will be praying!
Rick, Markham, Ontario
Hi there,
I would love to stream in to this, as I’ve never been part of one before. Could someone please let me know the link to it? I know there is a few, which I am happy to pay.
Thank you!!

Debi,
There’s a link towards the end of Beths’ posting from the day before.
My first Beth Moore bible study was Daniel. It was wonderful and the most profound truth I got from it was about my body being a temple. It has caused me to pay more attention to what I do to my body and with my body.
Beth –
God has immeasurably blessed our family through your life, your ministry, and LPM events. We are humbled by the opportunity to serve you and these women in prayer. Prayed in our men’s group today for revival in the women & sisters gathered this Saturday. I’ll also pray for the harvest with my sons this week and on Saturday.
Thanks for the invitation to be a part of God’s work –
Peace!

Praying with you.
I will be praying on Saturday – and I’m really honored to do so. I’ve seen the blessing of encouragement and growth in the Word that this ministry has brought my wife. Out of that overflow in her she serves the women in our church and community.
I’m praying that God will bring renewed faith to all participating and that He will give you remembrance of all you’ve studied and bring to your mind and heart even those fresh truths He wants you to share in the moment that day.
Thank you for all you do,
Gary Morton

Brad Harris, Pastor of the Otway Christian Union Church in Otway, Ohio. I will be praying fervently for your upcoming simulcast on Saturday. I am so grateful to God for the ministry He is accomplishing through you and your staff. My wife has been so richly revived and blessed in working through many of your studies over the past year and a half. So blessed, that she has shared them with scores of area women through small group sessions and God has worked wonders through those sessions. You and your staff mean so much to our family and church and we pray that our Lord will just pour it on and out this Saturday for His Name’s sake!
