Darrian Summerville , founder of The Moravian Watch and City Servants Church in Northern VirginiaGrowing up outside Detroit, sports were Darrian’s focus – until he encountered God at a party in the middle of fleeing drug charges in Chicago.At an event in Atlanta in 2010 was his first experience with other passionate worshippers who were part of the black community – a huge encouragement and paradigm shift for him!Darrian left the corporate world to serve full-time for The Call in Detroit in 2010 – “the #1 murder zipcode in the nation”. They prayed from 12am-4am, and he had other teams praying from 12pm-4pm, sleeping on air mattresses in an old school during their breaks. This was during a 40 day fast, by the way! This event was what really marked his life and changed his direction.At a speaking engagement in Virginia, Darrian had an encounter with a man who came up during the meeting and said that the Lord wanted to know, “where is your watch?” but neither of them knew what that meant.At an event with Lou Engle 6 months later, a different man came up to him and told him that he had been disobedient at first, but that God wanted him to give Darrian his watch. He said “the Lord wants me to tell you – you’re going to know what time it is!” At that moment, the other man who had the word about the watch 6 months earlier walked by and got to witness the moment!The brand of watch was Bulova – whose owner, Joseph Bulova was from Bohemian Czechoslovakia, where the Moravians had met together 300 years earlier!Through some research, they learned that Bulova only made little watches, and felt God saying that their focus was the “little watches”. They also learned that Bulova watches had the most accurate time keeping technology in their heyday, which everyone set their clocks by. Their slogan was “America runs on Bulova time”, and they felt impressed that God wanted to make the Night Watch a household fixture that people could set their clocks by.Darrian feels like Bulova’s marketing campaign (saying that whoever flew from New York to Paris would win $1000 – which Charles Lindbergh eventually won!) speaks to the prayer movement in 2020. When Darrian’s crew flew into St. Louis for a prayer meeting last year, they flew into Lindbergh Airport and met at Lindbergh Ave – a real “God-wink”. The ability to connect the “little watches” in a Moravian-like movement is more available now than ever with our video technology – Darrian considers their Night Watch ministry (going on 7 years now!) a new expression of the old Moravian Watch that covers a wider geographical distance.mwatch.org is how you can join the movement!Isaiah 56:6-7, Psalm 132The post #0023 – The Watch Story w/ Darrian Summerville appeared first on Presence Pioneers.
