“Prayer Shot” – May summary
On Tuesday 2nd May, a small group of Staff Team, Filling Station Hosts and guests, gathered to pray online, led by Hellie & Simon.
Scriptures
- Psalm 111 “Praise the Lord. I will extol the Lord with all my heart in the council of the upright and in the assembly. Great are the works of the Lord; they are pondered by all who delight in them. Glorious and majestic are his deeds, and his righteousness endures forever. He has caused his wonders to be remembered; the Lord is gracious and compassionate. He provides food for those who fear him; he remembers his covenant forever. He has shown his people the power of his works, giving them the lands of other nations. The works of his hands are faithful and just; all his precepts are trustworthy. They are established for ever and ever, enacted in faithfulness and uprightness. He provided redemption for his people; he ordained his covenant forever – holy and awesome is his name. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; all who follow his precepts have good understanding. To him belongs eternal praise.”

Giving thanks
- Thanks for the power of sung worship to change atmospheres and to prophesy.
- Thank you that you remember the small things, for when you’ve filled in the gaps when we’ve forgotten. That you change us from those who are overwhelmed to those who are overcomers.
- Thank you that go before us and prepare a way for us, even when there seems there is no way. That you see the big picture and the minutiae, and that you’re with us every step of the way.
- Thank you that you didn’t leave us as orphans, for the intimacy and closeness of the Holy Spirit.
- Thank you for your mercy, even to those who don’t know you.
- Thank you that you are the God of the impossible.
- That God is same today, yesterday, and forever and that what has happened in Sweden is going to be multiplied across the Filling Station.
- Thank you for miracles you are doing in Iran, and within the persecuted church.
Guidance / thanks
- For all those who need a breakthrough in their life.
- That we will be completely laid down, like a sacrifice of wood that can be set on fire for you. Would you set us on fire, we can’t do it ourselves. Then let that fire spread across everyone we meet, like a wildfire.
- For the fire of God to break out across our nation. For us to be fired up to preach the gospel, heal the sick and cast out demons. For the darkness to be pushed back. For fiery revival, that starts with us. For us to be empowered. For people who come to our meetings to receive but then be empowered to go and take what they’ve received to others.
- For new Filling Stations in France, not just ex pats but French people. That they would be an encouragement to the French church.
- For discernment to know how you are directing us.
- For the persecuted church across the world, give them ministering angels, peace, strength, and a powerful testimony. That you would even reach and save the persecutors. That they would keep their eyes fixed on you. For breakthrough.
- For the Swedish bible college students to be bold and empowered.
- For new meetings to experience the power of God.
- For the meetings in the West of Scotland to be resurrected and for new ones to be birthed.
Vision
- That salvation, healing, freedom, a hunger for your word and an increase in expectation would flow out from our time in Sweden.
- That the willingness to come forward for ministry that we saw in Sweden will be replicated here. We cry out for more of your Spirit. Lift our eyes to see what you are doing.
- Repentance is needed for any ‘fear of man’ that we have, highlighted as we reflect on the persecuted church. For boldness by the power of your Spirit.
Testimonies
- Personal testimonies – thanks for a family situation changed by prayer. For the amazing things God is doing in Sweden. For an improvement in relationships with local clergy. For the presence of God in the last Filling Station meeting that spilled into the Sunday meeting.
- From Sweden – healing, inner healing, and deliverance at the bible college and at the conference. That our team’s unity and fruit of the spirit impacted people there.
