PRAYER
COLLECTIVE BREAKTHROUGH THROUGH COLLECTIVE PRAYER IN THE CONTEXT OF COLLECTIVE TRAUMA: AN OPEN INVITATION TO A GLOBAL PRAYER MEETING Rev Nicku Kyungu Mordi “I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one…” Covid-19 shook human philosophy and left the world at a crossroad. Globally, people are in pain, confused, anxious, without hope and fearful. As Christians we are the light and salt to bring healing to the hurting world. This is an open invitation to Christians globally to unite with us for prayers of thanksgiving and to declare God’s faithfulness among the nations. Since 1993 God gave us a prayer strategy to follow. Once every Third Saturday of the month, Christians around the world unite to give God praise and honor with thanksgiving prayers. We encourage you to try – call every province in your nation and her political leaders. Lift up the flag that represent your nation and the Christian Unity Flag (Africa the Mother of humanity). It is God’s time to restore His people (Joel 2:18 –19, 21–26). As you speak His Word upon situations, He will use you in your sphere of influence for His glory (Romans 12:17-21) Are you ready? Due to this pandemic, the human race is suffering a collective trauma. God is therefore inviting His “many membered body” to stand in the gap collectively. Men and women from all over are invited to pray with us on every 3rd Saturday of the month, lifting our hearts and voices toward heaven and giving God the glory. God has given us a prayer strategy for Africa and He gave very specific dates on which we should pray. We have been following this strategy since 1993. The call to participate in the 3rd Day Unity in prayer; clearly demonstrates the church’ ability to function as a body regardless of the geographical distance (Ephesians 4:16). We have received countless testimonies across nations of the transforming power of uniting in prayer.
OUR PRAYER FLAG
A flag symbolizes the following: National Identity, culture, government, ideology, etc. When in a strange land and you see your flag you automatically connect with your nation and your people. The Praying for Africa Christian Flag is for the End Time Kingdom-minded People, who are passionate to see God’s Kingdom established in communities and nations. This flag symbolizes: • People who want to see their nation under God’s control (Psalm 24:1). • Want to co-labor with God to establish His Kingdom in every community (Matthew 6:10). • Want to strive for end time harvest (John 17:21-23). • Believe in the power of unity (Genesis 11:6). • Yield to God’s wisdom to accomplish His purpose (Joshua 6:1-5). • Stand in solidarity with the marginalized and the oppressed (Luke 4:18-19).
We call on believers globally to unite in prayers of thanksgiving with us on these 3 rd Saturday dates: 2020: 1/18; 2/15; 3/21; 4/18; 5/16; 6/20; 7/18; 8/15; 9/19; 10/17; 11/21; 12/19 Jesus prayed that all those who believe in Him may be brought to complete unity (John17:20-23). That too is the prayer of our hearts. For more information on the 3rd Saturday prayer movement please go to www.igoafricaforjesus.org THE CHRISTIAN LIFESTYLE
