Encouragement: The Word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.  [Hebrews 4: 12]

Pray for:

A) Let's praise God for and also pray for the many spiritually good things He is doing in NMB at the moment:
  1. The unity in the Body of Christ in NMB - unity of relationship and purpose among our different congregations; interdenominational unity of relationship and purpose among our Church Leaders, as well as among our youth and young adults' leadership.
  2. Ministries that the Lord has sent into NMB through which we have seen many people coming to salvation and for other groups within the City that have been highly effective in soul-winning e.g. the two teams from Christ for all Nations, Alma Rivera, Evangelist Nicky Coetzee.
  3. The Moral Regeneration Team who have been ministering in 700 schools throughout the Bay this year - preaching the Gospel, teaching the Word and training disciples one-on-one!
  4. The Hope for Kids team reached 11 860 learners with the Gospel from January 2026 to 2 October 2026.
  5. Christian men who minister among the "fatherless," as responsible, strong, loving and caring fathers: taking an interest in their sports activities and mentoring these young boys.
  6. Rugby Players for Christ - as they seek to testify to the lost and win them to Christ.
  7. The ongoing weekly ministry of prayer and the Word of God to our police in the SAPS stations around the Bay.
  8. The ongoing work among those that are needy - providing food, clothing and education.
  9. Prayer-Drive-Thru groups that have led many people to the Lord this year.
  10. There are those who faithfully prayer walk and raise up and maintain the Christian spiritual altars right around the Bay!
  11. Many prayer warrior and intercessory groups in the Bay, a House of Prayer that has been established, and our City's connection with the 24/7 Worldwide Prayer Network.
  12. The GAP Prayer Warriors' Prayer Gathering which has prayed for NMB for many years trusting the Lord to move of God; a Harvest of Souls and a Great Awakening.

B) THE ELECTIONS: to be free and fair; all corrupt actions to be exposed; people to realise their huge responsibility to vote and to vote wisely and not according to fear, persuasion or tradition; minimal spoilt papers; the voting stations to be properly prepared and equipped. Pray against all political violence!  [Proverbs 11: 1; 29: 2; Isaiah 10: 1-2]
 
Remember the promise: ... pray to the Lord for the city because if it prospers, you will prosper.  [Jeremiah 29:7]
