PRAYER POINTS FOR THE 24x7 PRAYER CHAIN FOR THE BODY OF CHRIST & NIGERIA, April 30 – May 6, 2023
THANKSGIVING & WORSHIP: Psm 19:1 “The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament shows his handywork. Day unto day utters speech, and night unto night shows knowledge. There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard” We are trusting God for a dream-state turnaround in the polity; to have God’s choice and the people’s mandate restored. God is faithful and NEVER will fail. Let us lavishly sing His praise. Join the heavens to declare His glory. God’s people shall yet be victorious,
REPENTANCE: Let us truly repent and ask God for mercy and forgiveness for all of your sins, and the sins of your family, the Church and Nigeria, and for the contributions of Christians to the woes that believers and Nigeria are now facing by ignoring prophetic warnings. Pray for God’s grace to turn and live in obedience; that our land may be healed (2 Chron. 7.14)
FOCUS: Victory through Praise (Psalm 67)
PRAYER POINTS :
Psm 67:1-2 “God be merciful unto us, and bless us; and cause his face to shine upon us; that Thy way may be known upon earth, Thy saving health among all nations” Thank God for all the mercy He has shown to you, to your family, to the Church and to Nigeria. Ask the Lord to show unprecedented mercies in a dimension that the nations will know of that He is the sovereign and supreme God, in a dimension “that Thy way may be known upon earth, Thy saving health among all nations”
Psm 67:3-4: “Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee. O let the nations be glad and sing for joy: for Thou shalt judge the people righteously, and govern the nations upon earth” Bless the name of the Lord. Praise Him lavishly and buoyantly. Thereafter (a) Thank Him in faith (b) Prophesy…. That He shall judge INEC, The Presidency, the Tribunals, the Supreme Court, the Jihadists and all Nigerians righteously; and He shall govern Nigeria as well as other nations seeking to exert influence on Nigeria to establish His counsel and will for Nigeria and firmly establish the new Nigeria where nations will come to learn righteousness
Psa 67:5-7 “Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee. Then shall the earth yield her increase; and God, even our own God, shall bless us. God shall bless us; and all the ends of the earth shall fear him” Do not get tired, Praise God yet again for all He has done and all He has been to you, your family, the Church and Nigeria. All the earth has been seeing the sham and shame that has been unfolding in Nigeria in the name of an election. The stage is set for God to intervene mightily in a manner that all the earth will be in no doubt of God’s wonder; like at the Red Sea; and Jericho; and at Elijah and the prophets of Baal. Call upon the Lord, that in mercy, and for sake of His name and His kingdom, God should bless the Church and Nigeria in a manner that with (a) avenging our adversaries (b) justice for any persons who have voted but there votes were manipulated and hijacked (c.) divine establishment as President of whoever Nigerians truly voted for by the mighty hand of God (d) with good, dynamic and progressive governance that will shame those who want Nigeria to break up or remain backward as a consumer and buyer of their goods only (e) with glorious fulfillment of the purpose of God for Nigeria.
