obedience is complete.

John 1:1-5 and 14
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the
Word was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made by him; and without him was
not anything made that was made.
4 In him was life; and the life was the light of
men.
5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the
darkness comprehended it not.
14And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us,
(and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,)
full of grace and truth.

Ephesians 1:3
Blessed be the God and
Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual
blessing in the heavenly places in Christ. (NKJV)
How we praise God, the
Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every blessing in
heaven because we belong to Christ. (The Living Bible)
Prayers
- Father, we thank You because we belong to Christ and
You have made us to be partakers of all the spiritual blessing inside
Christ.
- We worship and adore You for the privilege of having
the “life that is light” to tabernacle in our earthen vessel.
Matthew 13:11
He answered and said
unto them, because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of
heaven, but to them it is not given.
Prayers
- Thank You for counting us worthy to know the mysteries
of the kingdom of heaven, sharing Your deep secrets with us, the different
segments of the mystery of the Gospel.
- Thank You for sitting upon our lives and building us up
to rightly divide the word of truth.
- Help us to continue to abide in You and Your Word.
Isaiah 26:17-18
As a woman with child is
in pain and cries out in her pangs, when she draws near the time of her
delivery, so have we been in Your sight, O Lord.
We have been with child,
we have been in pain; we have as it were, brought forth wind; We have not
accomplished any deliverance in the earth, nor have the inhabitants of the
world fallen. (NKJV)
Prayer
- Look upon us O Lord, do not let our cries over Nigeria
be in vain.
- Let our cries accomplish victory over Nigeria.
- Lord, may we not be women who will bring forth wind.
- We believe You Lord, that our cries will bring forth a
New Nigeria.
THE
CHURCH (The Body of Christ)
Matthew 4:17
From that time Jesus
began to preach, crying out, Repent (change your mind for the better, heartily
amend your ways, with abhorrence of your past sins), for the kingdom of heaven
is at hand. (AMP)
Matthew 3:1-2
In those days there
appeared John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness (Desert) of Judea
And saying, Repent
(think differently; change your mind, regretting your sins and changing your
conduct), for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. (AMP)
Thomas Watson in “The
Doctrine of Repentance” defined
repentance as a grace of God’s Spirit whereby a sinner is inwardly humbled and
outwardly reformed. Repentance is a spiritual medicine made up of six special
ingredients.
- Sight of sin
- Sorrow for sin
- Confession of sin
- Shame for sin
- Hatred for sin
- Turning from sin
Prayers
- Father, let men see their sin; let there be sorrow over
sin, confession of sin, shame for sin, hatred for sin and turning away
completely from sin.
- As many came out confessing their sins and were
baptised by John the Baptist, provide opportunity of repentance to Your
children and cause them to see their wretchedness and turn to Jesus.
- Remove every veil and give understanding of what Christ
did for us at Calvary.
- Lord, raise disciples in the Church who have been
taught to deny self, take up their cross daily and follow Jesus.
- Break down denominationalism barriers and cause the
body of Christ to be united.
- Father, uproot every gathering where the truth is being
hidden from Your children in Nigeria in the name of Jesus.
NATIONAL
REPENTANCE
Nehemiah 1:5-7
We have sinned against
You.
We have acted corruptly
against You.
We have not kept Your
commandments, the statutes, nor the ordinances which You commanded Your servant
Moses.
Daniel 9
We have sinned and
committed iniquity
We have done wickedly
and rebelled
We have departed from
Your precepts and judgements
We have not heeded Your
prophets who spoke in Your name
We have not obeyed the
voice of the Lord our God to walk in His laws
Our sins and the
iniquities of our fathers are a reproach to all those around us.
Daniel 9:16-19
- Father, we ask, let Your anger and Your fury be turned
away from Your nation, Nigeria.
- Cause Your face to shine on Your nation which is
desolate.
- Incline Your ear and hear, open Your eyes and see our
desolation.
- Father, we are not presenting our prayers before You
because of our righteous deeds, but because of Your great mercies.
- Have mercy upon us O Lord; make Nigeria an object of
Your mercy.
- Lord, hear! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, listen and
act.
- Please Lord, do not delay for Your own sake, our
God.
- Bring to nought every counsel of the evil one in
Nigeria no matter what cloak they are wearing, be it the cloak of
leadership, clergy, layman etc.
- Titus 2:11 Father,
may Your grace that appeared to all men, appear to President Muhammadu
Buhari. Save his soul, Lord we ask this day. As You still lend him
breadth, Father cause Him to see Calvary before death, we plead with You.
- Isaiah 11:2 Pray for Vice-President Osinbajo, that the Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, Spirit of wisdom, understanding, counsel and might and the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord. May he receive boldness and courage in this office.
