Wall Street Turns To Prayer in Midst of Financial Crisis

Teresa Neumann : Sep 30, 2008  Staff - Australian Prayer Network/Christian Today

"We should not be intimidated by the magnitude of the darkness of the times, but should realize how quickly the light stands out in all that darkness."

Wall St. Prayer(New York, N.Y.)—Christian Today has reported that the turmoil in New York's financial markets has triggered a spiritual response among Christian leaders as cell phone text messages quickly spread calls to prayer, and Christians on Wall Street set up special prayer meetings for the week. The report also said "extraordinary prayer meetings were scheduled at Merrill Lynch, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase, Citigroup, Morgan Stanley, Deloitte, and elsewhere, and pastors began planning to gather for sidewalk prayer meetings outside of the stock exchange."

Mike Faulkner, pastor of New Horizon Church, said, "Honestly, I am praying God will bring healing and revival. The church should be available in every way for people on Wall Street who maybe didn't think much about God before. One should be comforted that righteousness will prevail."

One chief operating officer was quoted as saying that maybe Christian faith can stand out as a light of compassion and truth. "We should not be intimidated by the magnitude of the darkness of the times, but should realize how quickly the light stands out in all that darkness."
