My country, people the longest of all months (January) is gradually shutting down and I’m
so glad we will be done with it, in a few days... 11 more
to go... the Countdown to taking territories has began.
So two weeks ago, I saw a movie that is currently the talk of the town and still is, because upon it's release, it hit the number one spot displacing "“Straight Outta Compton” that had maintained the number one spot in cinemas in the US. I also learnt a Pastor encouraged his congregation to watch the movie as a family over the weekend. The much talked about movie is still a blockbuster despite the fact that it was first released 28th of August 2015 in the USA and also reached a box office hit of 72.1 million USD.
Do you remember Fireproof? Facing the giant nko? What about Courageous and Flying wheels? or their producers- The Kendrick Brothers ? Okay i guess you should know now...
It is "WAR
ROOM". The movie according to the Producers " is a compelling
Christian drama that explores the power that prayer can have on
marriage, parenting, career, friendship, and every other area of our life.
The main characters of the movie Tony() and Elizabeth( ) Jordan - seemingly had it all together like most
of us do, but in reality their world was gradually crumbling under the strain of a
failing marriage. As Tony's quest for career success and flirts with
temptation continued, Elizabeth’s bitterness only increased.
As their lives took an unexpected turn, Elizabeth’s newest client, Miss Clara (), challenges her to establish a prayer “war room” and a battle plan of prayer for her family. As she began to seriously pray for her husband, the situation turns around for the better. In the end, the Jordan family became more loving and stronger while Miss Clara, moved in with her son who is the city manager, still praying with thanksgiving for others even in the stillness of the night.
The movie produced by the Kendrick
brother though still the talk of town majorly for Nigerian Audience, has
enjoyed mixed review from critics who think the movie offers a view of Christian devotion involving only trivial
sacrifices.
Personally, I love the
movie because it births/re-awakens that sense of “life as a battle field”
consciousness in me. You suddenly realize that Prayer does move mountains and changes
everything.
So to wrap this up, remember that you can create your own war room and customize your wall of remembrance.
When talking of Coffee don’t forget that “People drink their coffee hot or cold. Nobody likes it lukewarm, not even the Lord” *wink*
