Leaders in the various university ministries of Students for Christ-Europe gathered for a weekend of prayer in Poland. Many encouraging things occurred. Briefly, God spoke specifically to several from His Word or from a word shared by a colleague. There was great unity of purpose in the vision to reach students on the continent. Participants were jubilant to hear of the advances that had occurred over the last year. There was intercession for the particular challenges facing each one on the horizon of 2015 and for the launch of new projects. Blair Bonin, AGWM personnel and director of Students for Christ-Europe also reports how the Lord helped him to speak into the lives of several colleagues at their request. The active work of the Holy Spirit was also evident to Blair in that as he was sharing with the group from a Scripture portion, his wife Dina was at home praying through that same passage without prior knowledge of it. God gives similar thoughts by His Spirit!
Blair also tells of how God never ceases to amaze in the journey of life with divine appointments. He relates, “During some down time in Krakow, I was able to share my faith with a young Polish man whom I unexpectedly encountered in the city square. After considerable dialogue, he allowed my colleagues and I to pray for him that God's Spirit would continue speaking to his spirit.”
Another instance of a divine appointment occurred on the trans-Atlantic flight back to the USA. Blair tells that, “My seat assignment was right next to a university student from Lebanon; our conversation inevitably turned to faith along with accompanied prayer at our parting.”
