PRAYER POINTS FOR THE 24/7 PRAYER CHAIN FOR THE BODY OF CHRIST & NIGERIA, April 17 – 23, 2022
THANKSGIVING & REPENTANCE: John 16:33 “These things I have spoken unto you, that in Me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world” Let’s thank the Lord that He has already overcome for us; it is too late for the devil. Also, by His blood, ask God for mercy and forgiveness for your sins, those of your family, the Church and Nigeria; pray for grace unto His people to "turn from...wicked ways" and live in obedience; that our land may be healed (2 Chron. 7.14). Seek God’s help for sustained righteousness in your life, family, the Church and Nigeria.
FOCUS OF THE WEEK: Joh_14:19 “…because I live, ye shall live also”
PRAYER POINTS:
In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, because Jesus Christ is risen and He lives
- Luk_20:18 “Whosoever shall fall upon that stone shall be broken; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder” Everything that is seeking to overrun and crush the Church in Nigeria, collapse and disappear
- Mat_16:18 “I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it” Everyone pursuing an ambition to turn Nigeria into a kind of state contrary to Nigeria’s constitution, repent, receive Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour and relent or the judgment of God written in His book descend suddenly upon you BEFORE you succeed or advance any further
- Luk_17:6 “If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye might say unto this…. tree, Be thou plucked up by the root, and be thou planted in the sea; and it should obey you” Anyone scheming to kill God’s children, stop, repent, or be uprooted and terminated or castrated to helplessly watch God’s children flourish and multiply in Nigeria
- 2Co_10:5 “Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ” Every organization or institution established to strategize or organize rebellion against the gospel, be crippled, vanquished and disappear

- “You shall decree a thing and it shall be established” – Job 22.28 Everything and everyone necessary for the Church in Nigeria, Christians and Christian communities to live in peace and pursue their faith, be established; and those working against their living be crippled or disappear. Superior wisdom, tact, and organization for dominion and safe living permeate the Body of Christ
- Every influence from outside Nigeria, fueling conflict in Nigeria and the unlawful capture of Christian territories, be cut off from Nigeria and crumble even in your home countries
- MATTERS ARISING IN THE NATION: Pray for other matters arising in the nation as observed or as the Spirit of God leads; cast down evil imaginations that lead men to attack airports, trains, etc; pray that in the ensuing political activities, God’s counsel shall stand in all irrespective of what the hearts of men have devised; pray for an end to the war in Ukraine; pray for Israel etc.; and give thanks and praise to God.
