Nigeria: Salvation for All

Prayer for Ourselves 

1 Corinthians 1:26-31 
“For you see your calling, brethren, that not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called. ²⁷ But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty; ²⁸ and the base things of the world and the things which are despised God has chosen, and the things which are not, to bring to nothing the things that are, ²⁹ that no flesh should glory in His presence. ³⁰ But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God—and righteousness and sanctification and redemption— ³¹ that, as it is written, “He who glories, let him glory in the Lord.” 

• Let us thank God for making us His divine choice. It is not by works of righteousness that we have done but it is only according to His mercy that He has saved. 

• Thank Him for calling us to Himself through the gospel and for revealing His hidden wisdom to us in a mystery. It is because of Him that we are in Christ Jesus. Lord, You have become for me, wisdom, righteousness, sanctification and redemption. Hallelujah! Take all the glory, Lord. 

• Thank the Lord that He is here, thank Him for His blessing, thank Him for His Spirit that quickens us and helps us to stand on the premise of ‘Not I but Christ’. 

• Thank Him for His mercy that has brought us into His intercession for Nigeria. “…It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.” – Romans 8:34b.

Romans 6:13 

“And do not present your members as instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but present yourselves to God as being alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God.”

An instrument is:

A tool for precision work to achieve a desired end.

A device that required skill for proper use. 

• Lord, I present myself to You as one who is alive from the dead. I present my members (my mind, my will, my thoughts, my eyes, my ears, my hands, my feet – all my members) as instruments of righteousness to God.

• Make me skilled in the word of righteousness, that by reason of use, have my senses exercised to discern both good and evil – Hebrews 5: 13-14. 

• Please grant grace and strength in my inner man to cast down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ. - 2 Corinthians 10:5. 

• 2 Corinthians 13:5 - “Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Do you not know yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you? – unless indeed you are disqualified.” 

• Am I really walking in the principles of Christ that I have learnt? Do I understand the gravity of every sin? Lord, have mercy on me and purge me from every dross. 

• Lord, impress on my heart Your burden for Nigeria and qualify me as an instrument to bear it and discharge it, to pray down Your will in heaven until You achieve Your desired end for the nation.

Prayer for Nigeria

  

God’s Promises   

Zechariah 4:6 (NKJV)

So he answered and said to me: “This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel:
‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’ Says the Lord of hosts.

Isaiah 60:22 (NKJV)

“A little one shall become a thousand, And a small one a strong nation.
I, the Lord, will hasten it in its time.”

Prayer Burden

• Revival in Nigeria.

• The complete gospel to be re-stated in the Church.
• Unity of the Body of Christ.
• Widespread knowledge of the mystery of the gospel through the Church.
• National Repentance.
• Great exploit of souls and multiplication of disciples in every place.
• The establishment of the purpose of the mystery in every facet of life, reaching every citizen of Nigeria in every tribe and tongue.
• Leaders that yield to the counsel of God and carry mind of Christ.
• Righteousness to be established in the nation.

Isaiah 56:1-8 - Salvation for the Gentiles

Thus says the Lord:

“Keep justice, and do righteousness,
For My salvation is about to come,
And My righteousness to be revealed.

² Blessed is the man who does this,
And the son of man who lays hold on it;
Who keeps from defiling the Sabbath,
And keeps his hand from doing any evil.”

³ Do not let the son of the foreigner
Who has joined himself to the Lord
Speak, saying,
“The Lord has utterly separated me from His people”;
Nor let the eunuch say,
“Here I am, a dry tree.”

⁴ For thus says the Lord:
“To the eunuchs who keep My Sabbaths,
And choose what pleases Me,
And hold fast My covenant,
⁵ Even to them I will give in My house
And within My walls a place and a name
Better than that of sons and daughters;
I will give them an everlasting name
That shall not be cut off.

⁶ “Also the sons of the foreigner
Who join themselves to the Lord, to serve Him,
And to love the name of the Lord, to be His servants—
Everyone who keeps from defiling the Sabbath,
And holds fast My covenant—

⁷ Even them I will bring to My holy mountain,
And make them joyful in My house of prayer.
Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices
Will be accepted on My altar;

For My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations.”

⁸ The Lord God, who gathers the outcasts of Israel, says,
“Yet I will gather to him
Others besides those who are gathered to him.”

This is what the Lord does to ‘the son of the foreigner who joins himself to the Lord’:

God will give him a place and an everlasting name in His house.
He will not be cut off.
God will bring Him to His holy mountain by Himself.
He will make them joyful in His house.
He will accept the offering of their life.

PRAYER POINTS

• Lord, You are the one who gathers the ‘outcasts of Isreal’. Please gather all who do not identify with Christ from every corner of Nigeria. Bring them to Your feet by a miracle. Give them a place and an everlasting name in Your house.

• Reveal Yourself to muslim souls in Nigeria. Every soul belongs to You. Please Lord, let them have a revelation of who You are. Show them Your face. Deliver them from evil, for thine is Thy kingdom.

• Lord, open the eyes of athiests, to idol worshippers and those who serve other gods in Nigeria. Turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in You.  - Acts 26:18.

• Lord, You said that all nations will come, even the foreigners. “For My house shall become a house of prayer for all nations.” Let it be so in Nigeria. Let there be an increase in Your kingdom from the muslim community, from the idol worshipers, from the atheists, from all who are outside the church.

• Raise disciples that are bold and courageous, disciples that can engage with these communities, and take the total counsel of God to them in wisdom. Let there be an ingathering from these communities.

• Please Lord, heal our land restore comfort to us and all who are crying for revival in Nigeria. Let there be great testimonies of the revelation of JESUS in the lives of anyone who is crying to you, “Here I am, a dry tree.”

• Let there be a great exploit of souls and multiplication of disciples in every community in Nigeria in the name of Jesus.

   

HYMN: 
GOD IS HERE AND THAT TO BLESS US

God is here, and that to bless us
With the Spirit’s quickening power;
See, the cloud already bending,
Waits to drop the grateful shower.

Let it come, O Lord, we pray Thee,

Let the shower of blessing fall;

We are waiting, we are waiting

Oh, revive the hearts of all.

God is here! we feel His presence
In this consecrated place;
But we need the soul refreshing
Of His free, unbounded grace.

God is here! oh, then, believing,
Bring to Him our one desire,
That His love may now be kindled,
Till its flame each heart inspire.

Saviour, grant the prayer we offer,
While in simple faith we bow,
From the windows of Thy mercy
Pour us out a blessing now.

Prayer for Ourselves 

Ephesians 2:4-9 “But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.  For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,  not of works, lest anyone should boast.”

•  Let us thank the Lord for His rich mercy and great love for us – a love that is limitless, boundless and endless.

• Let us thank Him for the exceeding riches of His grace and His kindness that included us in His death, burial and resurrection, that we can delivered from the dominion of darkness and be free to live in Him.

  

Philippians 3:9 “And be found in Him, not having my own righteousness, which is from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith.”

• Let us declare to Him that we are seeking Him through the righteousness of faith; we have no righteousness of our own, we have nothing to boast of.

• Galatians 6:14 – God forbid that I would boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ by whom the world has been crucified to me and I to the world.

• Galatians 6:16 - Lord, let Your peace and mercy be upon me as I walk according to the rule, the principles of the new creation in the name of Jesus.

We Need the Blood

Hebrews 12:24 - We have come “…to the Jesus, the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better things than that of Abel.”

Ephesians 2:13 – “But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.”

Hebrews 9:14 – “…how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?”

• Lord, we come to You by the way of the blood. We draw near in fill assurance of faith. We come under the blood of sprinkling – the only means by which I can have fellowship with You.

• Lord, I thank for the blood of Jesus that:

• Brings us near.
• Gives us confidence to enter the throne of grace.
• Speaks mercy on our behalf.
• Cleanses my conscience from dead works to serve the living God.
• The blood that makes it possible for us stand before God to make intercessions while He brings us to perfection in Him.

• Lord, please look at the blood of Jesus shed at Calvary as we pray for the nation of Nigeria. 

God is of Purer Eyes

•  Habakkuk 1:13 – “You are of purer eyes than to behold evil, and cannot look on wickedness.”

• Amos 9:8a “Behold, the eyes of the Lord God are on the sinful kingdom, And I will destroy it from the face of the earth…”

• 1 John 1:5 – “This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light and in Him there is no darkness at all.”

• Colossians 3:6 – “… the wrath of God is coming upon the sons of disobedience.”

• His eyes do not behold sin, yet the very people in Nigeria that we are lifting up before the Lord to see, are sinful men.

• We thank God that the blood of Jesus speaks better things that the blood of Abel.

 What is the Blood of Jesus Saying?

“Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do.”

Prayer for MERCY

• Let us repent on behalf of the nation of Nigeria as we stand in the gap.

• Lord, we have sinned against You. Please forgive us our sins because You are faithful. Please cleanse us from all unrighteousness – 1 John 1:9.

• Plead for us, O Lord. You are our Advocate with the Father. You are the propitiation for the sins of the whole world, including all the sins of Nigeria – 1 John 2:1-2.

• Lord, please have mercy on every soul in the nation of Nigeria. Forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.

• Have mercy according to Your lovingkindness; According to the multitude of Your tender mercies. Please blot out our transgressions – Psalm 51:1.

•  Let Your blood speak mercy for the nation of Nigeria.

• Let Your blood speak forgiveness for the wickedness of the leaders who have wasted the nation's natural resources, and brought poverty upon the people. Instead they pursue personal gain.

• Let your blood speak for all those who have blatantly stolen from the national funds, who have killed those who seek to do good.

• Let Your blood speak for all those who worship other gods, and carry idols in their hearts despite Your sacrifice on the cross.

• Let Your blood speak for false preachers, who have brought another gospel upon the people, wolves in sheep clothing.

• Let Your blood speak for Churches that are worldly, churches that serve mammon and not God and teach people to clamour for material things instead of the things of the Spirit.

• Lord, please look at the blood of Jesus shed at Calvary and have mercy on the nation of Nigeria.

Love Divine, All Loves Excelling

Love divine, all loves excelling,
Joy of heaven to earth come down;
Fix in us thy humble dwelling;
All thy faithful mercies crown!
Jesus, Thou art all compassion,
Pure unbounded love Thou art;
Visit us with Thy salvation;
Enter every trembling heart.

Breathe, O breathe Thy loving Spirit,
Into every troubled breast!
Let us all in Thee inherit;
Let us find that second rest.
Take away our love for sinning;
Alpha and Omega be;
End of faith, as its Beginning,
Set our hearts at liberty.

Come, Almighty to deliver,
Let us all Thy life receive;
Suddenly return and never,
Never more Thy temples leave.
Thee we would be always blessing,
Serve Thee as Thy hosts above,
Pray and praise Thee without ceasing,
Glory in Thy perfect love.

Finish, then, Thy new creation;
Pure and spotless let us be.
Let us see Thy great salvation
Perfectly restored in Thee;
Changed from glory into glory,
Till in heaven we take our place,
Till we cast our crowns before Thee,
Lost in wonder, love, and praise.

Isaiah 60:22  

A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation: I the Lord will hasten it in its time.

Zechariah 4:6

⁶ Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the Lord unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts.

Luke 1:38

And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.

Europe Dead and Buried

• Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died. (John 11:21)

• The Lord at some point left Europe to go elsewhere.

• When He left, He took with Him His presence, His word, and His resurrection power.

• Like Mary, the remnant church in Europe have sent for Him over several days while Europe was sick.

• Like Mary, the remnant church in Europe have cried, prayed and fasted that He comes so that Europe will not die.

• Alas the unthinkable happened - the Master as it were, did not heed the call; now it seems all hope is lost. Europe is dead and had to be buried.

• What a hopeless situation. It is finished and the verdict of the onlookers is, “And some of them said, could not this man, which opened the eyes of the blind, have caused that even this man should not have died?”

• Even the remnant church who have a faith somewhat but a dormant faith like Martha, said the same thing. It is finished, it is all over, there is no hope.

• Like Thomas, they have said, “Let us go and die with him” (John 11:21). “Let us just continue living our Christian life as best as we can and quietly go to heaven or quietly prepare for His coming is our little family, in our little church.”

• Some others have joined the world in declaring, “There is no hope of eternity anymore. Let us live like the world and do ministry like the world. Let us go and die with him.”

• Please note that in this hopeless situation, Jesus said that the resurrection and the life is here.

Europe Stripped to Mere Bones

“Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts.” (Ezekiel 37:11)

• Europe’s case has now gone beyond a decomposing carcass in the grave.

• Europe’s dead body has decomposed; maggots, flies and ants have eaten up the body completely.

• Vultures and birds of prey of every kind have picked at the body until it has become stripped of any remaining flesh, of any life.

• The sun, the rain, the elements orchestrated by Satan have beaten upon the worn-out bones for years.

• Now, Europe’s bones have become very dry and brittle. Any little pressure will break it to pieces, in fact, it is breaking to pieces as we speak.

• Our hope is truly lost as the Scripture says. We truly have been cut off for our parts.

• Please note that even in this valley of dried up bones, the Lord says these bones shall live and form a mighty army.

Europe - Why this Delay Lord? Why?

“And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, to the intent ye may believe; nevertheless, let us go unto him.” (John 11:15)

“Then many of the Jews which came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, believed on him.” (John 11:45) 

• The greater the hopelessness, the greater the manifestation of the power of God.

• The severity of the problem will make it very clear that God is the one at work when the miracle happens.

• If Europe was only dead for a few hours or days, we could even plausibly say now, Europe was not dead, Europe was only in a coma, Europe only fainted, Europe only needed to be resuscitated.

• If the church in Europe still continued with the fire of the Holy Ghost though in a very small measure, we may say well, all that is needed is for the Lord to fan the flames again and the fire will erupt again and blaze.

• No, this is not the case. Even the church in Europe is dead, buried, decomposed, stripped to bare bones.

• Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts.

• Yet, it is for our sakes, brethren, it is for our sakes, that we may believe.

• If we don’t see revival from a hopeless situation then we will live all our lives with a knowledge of Christ’s potential power but not know His dynamic power because we have never seen that power at work.

• If there is no opportunity to experience a dry bone situation, hearing the bones come together by the power of God, then our faith will be somewhat active but largely dormant.

• Yes, it is for our sakes that He has delayed His coming, but now, He is at the threshold. He is at the brink.

Prayer Points

• Lord, thank You for the delay in raising Europe. It is for my good, that I may see the power of God at work, that many including me and my household may believe.

• Lord, we thank You because as You raise will up this our Lazarus. As the European church arises out of the grave, many will see it and believe on Your name, in the name of Jesus.

• We give you the glory the honour and the praise in advance for what You will do as a result of this delay, in the name of Jesus.

Europe - This Little One Shall Become a Thousand 

• Europe, this dead, decomposed one is about to be raised up again.

• Europe, this dried-up bone can live again and form a mighty army.

• Europe, this one that has been reduced to nothing, to zero, can become a thousand.

• Europe, this stripped one can be restored.

• The Lord says, I the Lord will hasten it in His time. (Isaiah 60:22)

• These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep. (John 11:11)

• The determinate counsel of God is to go and wake up this our Lazarus, Europe, from the grave.

• Heaven had decided to raise the bones from the valley, so they told Ezekiel, open your mouth and prophesy.

• From these words, it is evident that God is set and the resurrection and the life wants to raise Lazarus. He groans and weeps as we are groaning and weeping. He is always set and ready to do something.

• From all the Scriptures that the Lord has been speaking to us for some years, the Lord is saying, “I am set to come and raise your Lazarus.”

• Prophetic declarations of the Lord have gone forth telling us that He is set to raise our Lazarus and be taught His word.

John 11: 25-26

“Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?”

Now, Jesus was not yet come into the town, but was in that place where Martha met him:

• Jesus came to the threshold of raising Lazarus and He stood in one spot.

• What is hindering Him and making Him to stand in one spot?

• One single woman’s self-life made God stand in one spot.

• One woman’s life made the resurrection and the life to stand still with all His power, all His might, unable to do what He purposed to do.

• All of heaven’s purpose was hindered because of the life of one single woman and Lazarus remained dead, rotting in the grave.

Prayer Points

• Lord, don’t let me be the woman who will hinder the resurrection and the life from doing what He intends to do.

• Any trace, any aspect of self-life, in me and in my home, that will hinder Your coming to bring us out of our graves, Lord, please have mercy, dig it out. Use circumstances to push it out, use my brethren to correct me, use my disicplers to address it.

• Don’t let me be like Martha who refused the instruction of grace from the mouth of Jesus Himself, yet she was busy here, there and everywhere; busy, yet her busyness was a hindrance to the resurrection and the life.

• Lord, like Mary, let me be the one that will make You weep and groan and come quickly to the aid of this our brother Lazarus, the European church and the people of Europe in the name of Jesus.

Europe Church - This Little One, This Dead One, These Bones Shall Become a Thousand

“Therefore, his sisters sent unto him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.” (John 11:3)

“Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.” (John 3:5)

• When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which came with her, He groaned in the spirit, and was troubled. And said, where have ye laid him? They said unto him, Lord, come and see. Jesus wept. Then said the Jews, behold how he loved him! (John 11:33-36)

• Jesus loves His church in Europe, the basis of His determination to raise her again is love.

• This our brother Lazarus who was so sick. He died, was buried, and has become all bones, as is the case of the European church, the ‘beloved of the Lord’.

• Jesus loves His bride; our motivation must be love poured into our hearts for Jesus’ church.

• This HeartCry must be borne out of love; must be compelled out of the His love that took Him to Calvary.

• Not our personal holiness, righteousness, discipleship or prayers, even those said on this platform. No!

• Calvary must be the basis of our cry for the European church, our cry must be: Lord Him whom you love, him who you died for, him who you paid a great price for is not just sick, he is dead, buried, decomposed, and he is now mere bones, dried brittle bones.

Believest thou this?” Yes, we believe!

John 11: 25-26

“Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?” 

2 Corinthians 2:13

“We, having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak;”  

To believe means to accept that (something) is true, especially without proof.

Prayer Points

“Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the LORD.” (Ezekiel 37:4)

• Prophesy unto the dried-up bones of our European church; prophesy unto them.

• Our European church, hear the word of the Lord, online, offline, on all forms of social media; let this bring about heartfelt repentance and sorrow over sin.

• Our European church, hear the Mystery of the Gospel and let Him swallow up the mystery of iniquity that has ravaged you.

• Call forth our European church out of the various graves that they are in.

• Our European church who are in the grave, the resurrection and the life is here, come out, come forth in the name of Jesus.

• Our European church, receive the breath of God, the life of God, in the name of Jesus.

• Let there be a shaking, a noise in this valley of bones called European church.

• Prophesy unto the bones; let them come to together bone to bone - no mistake, no erroneous doctrine again, correct, full, unadulterated gospel will bring the bones of our European church together again.

• We prophesy, let flesh, sinew be put upon you again; let seared consciences come alive again, let reprobate minds be quickened to be able to judge between right and wrong again.

• We prophesy, fresh skin to cover your nakedness; let shamefacedness, modesty, restrain, be restored in our European church.

• Dear Holy Spirit, please move, breath upon our European church, the breath of life; let our slain European church Live, in the name of Jesus. 

Joel 2:7-11

“They shall run like mighty men; they shall climb the wall like men of war; and they shall march everyone on his ways, and they shall not break their ranks: Neither shall one thrust another; they shall walk everyone in his path: and when they fall upon the sword, they shall not be wounded. They shall run to and fro in the city; they shall run upon the wall, they shall climb up upon the houses; they shall enter in at the windows like a thief. The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining: And the Lord shall utter his voice before his army: for his camp is very great: for he is strong that executeth his word: for the day of the Lord is great and very terrible; and who can abide it?”

Let our European Church arise as this great army that will not break their ranks, that will usher in the revival, the coming of the Lord that we are waiting.

Nigeria: Prayer for the Body of Christ

Join This HeartCry Prayer- Every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday 11.30am -1.30pm (UK Time)

Thanksgiving

Hebrews 11:3 - “By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.”

• Let us thank God for His love and mercy over Nigeria for He has been so good to us. He has also given us the Repairer of lives, situations and nations (i.e. His Word). We only need to position ourselves.

Ephesians 1:3-4

“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. ⁴ For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight.”

• Every blessing that Nigeria needs as a nation has been provided by God even before He created the world. These blessings are in the hand of His body (the Church). Now, let us pray that Mr. Old man will be removed from the pulpit of our churches in Nigeria and the new creation man who has the legal right to share and administer the inheritance of God will take over our pulpits.

Ephesians 2:10

“For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”

• There is work prepared in advance for the body of Christ to do, that will bring about the peace of the nation. Brethren, let us beg God to help the body of Christ in Nigeria to put permanent stop to the work of the flesh and pick up the prepared and acceptable work-life of God which brings about the fear of God, trust, genuine love towards people, peace, unity, the reign of God and the exposing and disarming of darkness.

Ephesians 3:4

“In reading this, then, you will be able to understand my insight into the mystery of Christ,”

• Our Father in heaven, we pray, let insight into the understanding of the mystery of God be open unto the body of Christ in Nigeria. The mystery and the power of God that is closed to the enemies of the Gospel, always overcomes the mystery of iniquity. Pray that this mystery will be open to the church.

Ephesians 3:6

“This mystery is that through the gospel the Gentiles are heirs together with Israel, members together of one body, and sharers together in the promise in Christ Jesus.” 

• Let us ask God that the power of this mystery will break through to the hearts of people, form and establish true unity among the body of Christ in Nigeria; and spread across the nation in Jesus’ name.

Ephesians 3:7

“I became a servant of this gospel by the gift of God’s grace given me through the working of his power.”

• Let us pray for the body of Christ in Nigeria, that the mystery of the Gospel will reveal to them their identity in Christ; and the value of the Gospel will become known to them that are servant of God, not servant of mammon. Pray that God will teach and help them carry the gospel with all care, and also present it with all care, in Jesus’ name.”

Ephesians 3:11-12

“...according to his eternal purpose that he accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord. ¹² In him and through faith in him we may approach God with freedom and confidence.”

• Pray that with the revelation of the gospel of truth, Jesus’ church will come together with the spirit of unity, in boldness and confidence, into God’s presence, and seek for the deliverance of the nation and her people.”

Ephesians 4:10

 “He who descended is the very one who ascended higher than all the heavens, in order to fill the whole universe.”

• The work has been done; the work to fill the whole universe with Himself, even Nigeria as a nation. Pray that Nigeria will not miss her place in this grace, for it is settled. He has ascended higher than all the heavens. Through the body of Christ in Nigeria, the manifold wisdom of God will be known to the rulers and authorities, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
