Prayer For The Church

Prayer For The Church

The number one mission of Satan is to destroy the Church of Jesus Christ. But the word of God declares: ‘… I will build my church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.’ (Matthew 16:18) This is true! Yet one way to join forces with the Lord for the keeping, preservation and safety of the church is to pray. History has taught the church that if she doesn’t pray, stand firm for the word of God, boldly declare her faith and resist the devil with all boldness, Satan may silence and prevail against it locally even though not globally. That’s why you and I (the individual member of the body of Christ) should pray for the church. So, this post is list of intercessory prayer points for the church that will give you a head start as you stand in the place of prayer for the church. They are bible based and will most always receive the attention of...

Pray For Ghana

Pray For Ghana

LET'S JOIN HAND TO PRAY FOR GHANA Today we shall be engaging in fervent prayer for the land, people and Church of Ghana. Formerly called the Gold Coast, Ghana is Africa’s biggest gold miners after South Africa. It is located along the Gulf of Guinea and Atlantic Ocean in the sub region of West African. The name comes from the ancient Ghana Empire which means “warrior king”. They were the first African country to gain independence from the colonial powers in March 6th, 1957. They have enjoyed increasingly stable and deepening democratic governance, youth and gender empowerment. They are rich in mineral resources and endowed with a good education system and efficient civil service, they have also made significant progress in poverty reduction. Nonetheless Ghana began to have problems when they fell victim to corruption and mismanagement of national resources just after independence. They have suffered constraints of basic infrastructure such as feeder roads that links their economic activity to urban market centers,...

Let’s Pray For South Africa

Let’s Pray For South Africa

Overview South Africa is characterized by its multi-ethnicity and diverse culture groups. Eleven official languages are recognized in the constitution. About 79.5 percent of the South African population is of black African ancestry, divided among a variety of ethnic groups speaking different indigenous languages. South Africa also contains the largest communities of European, Asian, and racially-mixed ancestry in Africa. South Africa, with the third largest economy in Africa, is classified as an ‘upper-middle income’ economy by the World Bank. It is viewed as the ‘gateway to Africa’ for investors, and recently joined the BRIC nations in order to better economic growth on the continent. In spite of its economic strength, South Africa currently has the highest mortality rate in the world, with HIV/AIDS claiming thousands of lives. There are currently around 500 000 new infections every year and nearly two million AIDS orphans. About 14 percent of the populations are infected. The impact of the AIDS-endemic is already devastating and will affect...

O Lord, Revive thy Work

O Lord, Revive thy Work

O Lord, revive thy work – Habakkuk 3:2; 2Chr 7:14; Psalm 85: 6 This phrase is taken from a prayer by the prophet Habakkuk.  Hearing what the Lord had said, he was afraid because it involved the destruction of Judah.  He prays that God will manifest His wrath upon Judah and Chaldea, but he also asks Him to be merciful.  He wanted God to discipline Judah and destroy Babylon.  It was a prayer for a fresh manifestation of God’s power along with a full measure of His pardon. It seems to me that our nations of the earth are in line for the wrath of God to be manifested.  If there ever was a day when a spiritual revival was desperately needed, it is now. Let’s look deep into the affairs of the Church today and consider the wickedness and rejection of God among the nations of the earth today. We need some kind of a reawakening from a state of spiritual stagnation to a...

HABAKKUK: A PRAYER FOR REVIVAL

HABAKKUK: A PRAYER FOR REVIVAL

 (Scriptural Verses: Habakkuk 3:1-2) The Book of Habakkuk 3:1 indicates that this beautiful heart-felt prayer for revival, offered by the prophet around 600 BC, was originally set to music or became a poetic song. Habakkuk prayed because revival was desperately needed. God’s people had become forgetful, formal and careless in their devotion and obedience to God. They had almost lost their testimony, God’s holy name was not honored, and His kingdom was not being extended. How relevant this study is for our own times! - Because our greatest need today is for spiritual revival. Our greatest need is not for more evangelistic meetings (although we thank God for these), for more money or for better methods. The greatest need is for spiritual revival, for a fresh infusion of divine life into the Church, for an awakening in the lives of God’s people and an outpouring of the Holy Spirit. It was for this that Habakkuk prayed. Let us examine his prayer:-  1. The...

Revive Me According to Thy Word.

Revive Me According to Thy Word.

Our Brokenness The Great Cover-up is Our Sin: This is Our Problems If we are honest with ourselves, we would find that we are much more broken than we think. Of course we usually do not think about ourselves in this way. We rather pride ourselves in how good we are. We pretend that we have no problems. In order to keep up the game, we try to think that a big degree, being famous, landing a good job or owning a great house or propriety or car shows how ‘good’ we are. We love to cover over our spiritual, moral, social or marital problems. But in fact, we are broken, and we need fixing. Jesus said it this way, ‘Because you say, “I am rich, and have become wealthy, and have need of nothing,” and you do not know that you are wretched and miserable and poor and blind and naked, I advise you to buy from Me gold refined by fire,...
