4 steps to Transformation as laid out in Luke 10
1. Bless- Speaking peace to people and to the systems that are around us.
I cannot change what I do not embrace.
2. Fellowship- Listening to find out where the pain and brokenness is.
I cannot fix what I don’t know is broken.
3. Meet a felt need- Talking to God about someone else’s problem.
I connect man’s need with God’s resources.
4. Bring the Kingdom- Letting it be known that the kingdom of God is near.
I confirm that the power and presence of God is “in the neighborhood”.
These four steps constitute the Prayer Evangelism model that Ed Silvoso describes in detail in his book Prayer Evangelism.

FRIDAY BLESSINGS
We commend to you our practice of speaking blessings out into our
local community. You may like to use the following as a Framework
and adapt to your own particular village/ town/ community.
Heavenly Father, we take upon ourselves the mantle of
authority that Jesus delegates to His disciples and in His Name
we speak to every household in the valley and on the hillsides
and say to you:
"We bless you in the Name of the Lord. We bless your marriages
that they may be strong and whole. We bless the partners in
each marriage that the relationship between them may be loving,
forgiving, merciful and strong. We bless every inter-generational
relationship within each household that there may be peace and
love and understanding flowing between each one".
"In Jesus' Name we' bless every network of wholesome and
supportive friendship".
"We bless your health that you may be strong and well. In Jesus'
Name we resist any sickness or disease which seeks to invade this
valley, and to every person in the valley we say; be well, be strong,
be healthy. To any who are sick right now we say we bless you in
Jesus' Name with a speedy recovery".
We bless your wealth that you may have plenty to replace poverty.
We bless you to have enough to live and enough to give. We bless
the work of your hands that whatever you turn your hand to which is
wholesome may be profitable. We bless every wholesome enterprise
that is conducted by you that it may prosper and be successful.
We bless the produce of the fields that it may be strong and nutritious
throughout the year. We bless the flocks and herds that they
may be well and strong and that they may multiply. We bless the
cultivated land that it may yield rich harvests.
We bless local schools that they may be secure, safe places for
teachers and pupils alike. We bless the children's capacity to learn
and develop relationships and we bless their simple trust in Jesus,
that their trust may grow and become enriched.
We speak to the churches and all other places of worship and we

Word of God may flow out from you in power. We bless the hearts of
aIl who live in the valley and on the hillside that you may be quickened
to hear and respond to the Voice of the Living God. We bless all who
live and work here, that the over-spill of the blessings of the presence
