STANDING IN THE GAP FOR THE CHURCH

Forty days of focussed prayer and fasting 20 June – 29 July

FAITH FOR A CHURCH, FAITH FOR A CITY

2 Chronicles 7:14 If My people, who are called by My name, shall humble themselves and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from Heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

Eph:20-23 All this energy issues from Christ; God raised him from death and set him on a throne in deep heaven, in charge of running the universe, everything from galaxies to governments, no name and no power exempt from his rule. And not just for the time being, but forever. He is in charge of it all, has the final word on everything. At the center of all this, Christ rules the church. The church, you see, is not peripheral to the world; the world is peripheral to the church. The church is Christ's body, in which he speaks and acts, by which he fills everything with his presence.

Devotion - Day 31

The revelation of the Character of God through the ‘Mind Moulders’

The Church.
The church is to reveal Christ the Great High Priest and the attributes of God that should be manifested are: Holiness and Mercy.

Math 16:16-18
And Simon Peter answered and said, You are the Christ, the Son of the living God. Jesus answered and said to him, You are blessed, Simon, son of Jonah, for flesh and blood did not reveal it to you, but My Father in Heaven. And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock (revelation) I will build My church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

Pray for:
* The Church to be lead and empowered by the Holy Spirit
* The Centrality of Christ
* Hunger for the Word of God
* People to be saved and discipled
* Cell groups to be communities of Life
* Provision of strategic venues
* Faith for the transformation of the city
* Wisdom and anointing for the leadership
* For the Fear of God and Humility
* Unity within and with other churches
