PRAYER POINTS FOR THE 24/7 PRAYER CHAIN FOR THE BODY OF CHRIST AND NIGERIA, JULY 5 - 11, 2020

 

THANKSGIVING

Psalm 147:1  “Praise ye the LORD: for it is good to sing praises unto our God; …and praise is beautiful

Praise God for preservation of the Christian faith, Nigeria, and of our lives amidst a global pandemic; for protection of the Body of Christ, for growing exposure of the hidden secrets of pretentious wicked ones in government. Thank God for all else you can think of. God is more than deserving of all our praise.

REPENTANCE…S-E-R-I-O-U-S REPENTANCE

  • Repent of all known and unknown sins of yourself, your family, the Body of Christ, and of Nigeria
  • Jer 22:21  “I spake unto thee in thy prosperity; but thou said, I will not hear. This has been thy manner from thy youth, that thou obeyedst not my voice. The wind shall eat up all thy pastors, and thy lovers shall go into captivity: surely then shalt thou be ashamed and confounded for all thy wickedness….As I live, says the LORD, though Coniah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah were the signet upon my right hand, yet would I pluck thee thence; and I will give thee into the hand of them that seek thy life, and into the hand of them whose face thou fearest…”
    • O Lord, rebellious “from thy youth” has been true of us. Through several years, various warnings we “will not hear”. We have followed too much after money, possessions, and our vain passions. Please Lord, forgive us. Have mercy upon us, have mercy upon our leaders in the Church, have mercy upon Nigeria
    • O great God, P-L-E-A-S-E, be merciful unto us. Let the wind of terror or any ill wind NOT “eat up all …pastors”; do not allow any more of Your children in Nigeria “go into captivity”. Please have mercy
    • Please Lord, take out hearts of stones from us, give hearts of flesh; lead us in the paths of righteousness for Your name’s sake. And P-L-E-A-S-E Lord, in mercy, let each of us and Your Church remain in Your hands; do not let us fall “into the hand of them whose face thou fearest”
    • Matt_3:8  “Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance”: Our Father, please work in me, my family and all of Your Church in Nigeria to truly repent, and live the kind of life that made observers call Your early disciples “Christians” – like Christ. Help us to bring fruits conforming with repentance in all or ways

TAKING CHARGE

Rev 12:11 “And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony”:

  • Plead and cover all 36 states of Nigeria and Abuja with the blood of Jesus Christ; the President and Presidency, all Governors and Government Houses nationwide; the air, land and sea of Nigeria and ALL that are in them; even altars, things and persons outside Nigeria that impact and influence Nigeria
  • Proclaim what the Bible says and decree that all these persons, places and things conform with God’s word

PRAYERS FOR THE CHURCH

  • 1 Cor._2:4  “And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power”: Lord, please re-fire all ministers to return from motivational speeches and soothing messages to the undiluted gospel that burns hearts, which You confirm with signs
  • Mat 28:19  “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations…Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you”:
  • Lord, by Your Spirit, please renew the evangelical focus and mandate of Your children and Your Church in Nigeria and take away any seductions and distractions from this main purpose
  • Large numbers of unbelievers who were far away in enclaves that were difficult to reach have migrated to the South of Nigeria. Please Lord, enable and open the eyes of Your Church to see this great opportunity and take full advantage of it to win them all to Your kingdom; not to resent, hate, or despise these immigrants.
  • 2Co_6:17  “Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, says the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you”: Lord, please crush any new world order manipulation of any longstanding believers and servants of God; and keep them from any deception and delusion of uniting religions. You have called us to teach, win and baptize ALL not to partner or unite
  • Deut 33:26-29  “There is none like unto the God of Jeshurun, Who rides the heavens to help you, and in His excellency on the clouds. The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms: and He shall thrust out the enemy from before thee; and shall say, Destroy them. Israel then shall dwell in safety alone: the fountain of Jacob shall be upon a land of corn and wine; also his heavens shall drop down dew.  Happy art thou, O Israel:…and thine enemies shall be found liars unto thee; and thou shalt tread upon their high places” O Lord, in Your great mercy:
    • Ride the heavens to help Your Church and all of Your children in Nigeria; please Lord, do so now!
    • Be the impenetrable refuge of Your children. Let no unbelievers kill anyone again. Shield all and their homes and homelands in Your everlasting arms. Please Lord, let no inch be lost to terrorists again
    • By Your power, thrust out all enemies in high or low places that will not relent, including pretentious ones in seats of authority in and outside Nigeria. Repent and relent or be destroyed, in the name of Jesus Christ. Let ALL enemies of the Church in and outside Nigeria be found liars and failures
    • Thank You Lord as You cause Your children to “dwell in safety alone”, not surrounded by strangers imported from other countries, not displaced by terrorists and cornered in IDP camps, not imprisoned against their will in terrorist dens and married against their will to strangers
    • Merciful God, please revive and elevate the economy of Nigeria, especially of Your faithful children; that Your cities may spread abroad by prosperity. Let Your children be “upon a land of corn and wine; also his heavens shall drop down dew”. Restore the years the cankerworms have stolen.

 

PRAYERS FOR OUR SELVES, OUR FAMILIES & THE NATION

  • Matt 6.9: “...Hallowed be thy name”: Lord, in one move made through Elijah, a nation that had almost wholly turned from You unanimously proclaimed that You are the true God. Please in a way that You alone can, cause Your name to be feared, and reverenced in Nigeria above EVERY other name
  • Exo_14:17  “And I, behold….I will get Me honour upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen”: Our great God, as You did when Pharaoh questioned and dared You, please in Your own special way, by Your own mighty hand, gain honour over the Pharaohs, Herods, and Hamans of our nation and of this generation, even outside Nigeria; over ALL who are questioning and daring You.
  • Psa_118:15  “The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tabernacles of the righteous: the right hand of the LORD does valiantly”: Great Jehovah, let Your own right hand do valiantly to glorify Your name and bring deliverance and rejoicing to me, my family, the IDPs, Leah Sharibu and others abducted; to all of Your children and to win over the unsaved
  • Father, please give our leaders wisdom to navigate through these medically and economically trying times. If ay leader in place at any level is simply not right or simply cannot change, You Lord please change them.
  • Oh Lord, please heal any persons already sick with COVID-19 or any other infectious disease. Also please, strengthen the doctors, NCDC and all who are genuinely combating COVID-19. Frustrate any manipulators.
  • ANY OTHER PRAYERS as led or deemed necessary
  • Also proclaim, pray and prophesy with the words of Psalm 46 and Jer-33
