We bring you greetings in the Name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
We thank God that the leadership of the Church sees the need for us to fast and pray at this time. We must maximize this God given opportunity by praying aright.
To be effective in our intercession, let me offer some suggestions.
a) UNDERSTANDING THE ISSUES:
Mankind has entered the final phase of prophetic activities that would end this age and ultimately decide the destiny of nations.
From the beginning of creation, God ordained that the three sons of Noah that covenanted with Him to restart a new order after the flood would play a role in the salvation of mankind and restoration of God’s plan.
The Shemites (Israel) were called to lay the foundations and provide the patterns.
Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises;
Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen (Rom.9:4).
The Japhetities (Europeans) were called to play an Evangelical role in the afternoon of the Church Age to publish the good news of Salvation to the Nations. That has explained the emergence of nations like Uk, USA and others that have been strong missionary nations.
The Hamites (Africans) are called to finish the work and perfect the Bride of Christ. It has always been clear through prophecy and the writings of the Fathers that this call on Africa must be championed by Nigeria. This assignment from heaven is Nigeria’s redemptive calling and purpose.
Because of this call on the nation, Nigeria will be the stage for the conflict of thrones. All anti-Christ forces galvanized by Islam will desire to be established in Nigeria to prevent the nation from fulfilling this mandate.
To have a holistic picture, we must see events unfolding in our nation from the lens of this broader unfolding end-time agenda of God.
With the passing of Billy Graham, the signpost of the Evangelical period of the Gospel dispensation, the Lord is saying clearly that the Season of Africa has fully come and Nigeria must now lead Africa’s liberation.
Nigeria is presently travailing to give birth to the purposes of God and the greatest need of the nation now is for skillful midwives that will deliver the seed of God without choking the precious seed.
THE NECESSITY OF HAVING A RIGHTEOUS GOVERNMENT:
The Lord has said clearly that for Nigeria to fulfill her redemptive purpose, it must have a government that is built on the foundations of righteousness and judgment.
God actually allowed the present regime to come to expose two things:
a) To reveal the carnal nature of the Church in Nigeria and bring it to judgment.
b) To reveal the weakness of the Nigerian state as presently constituted and make manifest the need for true change.
For our prayers to be effective we must come to a determination whether it is profitable to allow the present order to continue or whether we have come to a point where we are asking the Lord in unity to give us a righteous government.
In Psalm 89:14 it is written:
Justice (righteousness) and judgment are the habitation of thy throne. Mercy and truth shall go before thy face.
Our nation will NOT move forward unless the issue of addressing the foundations of our nation is settled.
God is saying that our foundations as presently constituted CANNOT carry the structure He wants to build in the nation to enable the nation fulfill her redemptive calling.
If we cannot address this issue and come to some determination, we will spend 21 days praying but we may be petitioning heaven for different things.
The basic condition for effective united prayers is clearly stated in Matt,18:18-20.
Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.
For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.
MY SUGGESTIONS – I will now speak in parables but I am speaking to a people of wisdom:
1. The stand of Heaven concerning the present government. Dan.5:25-28.
2. Our united petition should be – Ezk.21:26-27.
3. Our united demand should be for the Lord to do whatever it takes to preserve Nigeria’s redemptive purposes.
THUS SAITH THE LORD:
Hell will pay any price to have Nigeria and they are paying. That is how you must see the so called herdsmen crisis. It is a deliberate sacrifice to Molech and the ancient dragon that governs nations through bloodshed and violence.
They have come back with subtlety and craft and are releasing prognostications, enchantments, chants and hexes to lure the nation into sleep and a false sense of security so that they can win the 2019 election at all cost.
Son, I have set My heart on your nation and I must have it. I have four options to advance My purpose:
Option 1 is the Electoral Process. This route will minimize casualties and be in line with current global trends.
Option 2 is a violent and bloody coup. This will cause unimaginable casualties and cause turmoil in a scale not seen in your nation before.
Option 3, occupation by a foreign Army and nation. This will cause unimaginable suffering and temporarily give My enemy the advantage. If you allow this to happen, the aliens will rape your nation and violate everything you hold sacred. I counsel you to stand against this and pray like you have never prayed before.
Option 4, an unleashing of uncommon supernatural phenomena that will leave people stunned and wondering whether the world has come to an end. Remember, I am the God that did wonders in Egypt. I created nature and still control nature. There will be quakes, flooding and gulley erosions that will force international intervention and occupation but not for good.
All these four options are before Me but I counsel you to watch and pray for a peaceful transition through the electoral process.
Son, Trump’s election bought you eight years to re-position your nation and profit through the Preaching of the Gospel of the Kingdom (See matt.24:14).
We do not need many prayer points that will end up confusing the issues. We just need to unite in prayer around the present needs of the kingdom and when that is granted other things will natrurally fall in line.
May the Lord give us wisdom.
Shalom!!
