Encouragement: 'My sheep hear my voice... and they follow Me.' [John 10: 27]
Pray for:
- The NMB Church:
- The many prophecies over the NMB and SA to come to pass.
[These are some: Isaiah 60 & 62; Zechariah 1-8 & 2: 5; Nehemiah 2: 17]
- A deep unity-of-purpose and unity-of-relationship in the Church, both within the congregations and inter-denominationally; for strength, purpose, direction and a great anointing for all our Church Leaders: i.e. ministers, pastors, elders and the various cell group leaders. [Psalm 133]
- A visible agape love among believers - both within the individual congregations and in the whole NMB Body of Christ. [John 13: 34]
- Refreshing, restoring and revival in the Church throughout NMB. [Zechariah 10: 1a]
- An open heaven over NMB as believers resume the 'family altar' in their homes - i.e. acknowledging and honouring the Lord's Presence in their homes by reading the Word and praying together daily as a family. [Psalms 127 and 128]
- Believers to be set free from operating in a spirit of fear: fear of man, fear of failure, fear of the future, fear of financial ruin, fear of giving up their standard of living, fear in their relationships, fear of man, and fear of sickness, incapacitation and death etc. [2Tim 1: 7]
- A new boldness to share the Gospel clearly. [Acts 1: 8]
- Many people to come to salvation. [Luke 10: 2]
- True repentance and real conversions to be evident in each new believer. [Luke 13: 3]
- The Lord to raise up many Christians to disciple the new believers. [Matthew 28:18-20]
- Reconciliation where there is a lack of unity. [Matthew 6: 12]
- Strong heathy friendships to be established among the members of local congregations.
- The intercessors and Prayer Warriors: A refreshing, an ability to hear God, sufficient time for prayer, unwavering faith, perseverance and consistency and protection against the attack 0f the enemy. [Isaiah 62: 6-7]
- Crime:
- The crime prevention efforts by the SAPS, the Metro Police, security companies, local councillors and neighbourhood watch groups to be highly successful.
- The community to be more vigilant of criminal activity and on guard against any kind of attack or attempt to rob; and to open a case against the criminals where necessary.
- The crime rate in NMB to drop substantially and measurably.
- Peace and safety for the residents, and also for those visiting our area.
- Syndicates and those involved in any form of crime or corruption to be exposed, arrested.
- NMB Families:
- The healing of relationships, reconciliation, morality, loyalty, true unity, health, financial blessing, and employment for the unemployed. [Psalm 133]
- Christian men to fulfil their roles as godly fathers in their homes, and to be willing to reach out in love to those who are fatherless or who have absent fathers. [Ephesians 5: 21-6: 4]
- Christian wives to be nurturers in their families, teaching their families to be loving, kind, gentle and forgiving. Christian children to be lovingly submissive to their godly parents, and to obey them. Christian families that are functioning properly to become so attractive to dysfunctional families that they will become role-models to their neighbours and friends!
Remember the promise:
... pray to the Lord for the city because if it prospers, you will prosper. [Jeremiah 29:7]
