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.

Don asked us by text to blog thoughts from prayer this morning:

* God is asking us to 'minister to Him' (see Acts 13:2).
* Picture of weeds being pulled out- that God wants to weed out any wrong doctrine and things that don't glorify Himself from churches in London.
* Felt to pray for the street preachers here, that they would go about it God's way, and peoples' hearts would be softened to them.
* For peoples' hearts to be softened in general to the things of God.
* That God would raise up more prayer warriors in London/ England to kindle revival here.

We prayed for individuals to focus on God and then collectively the church will focus on God to make Christ the centre of the church, the centre of our hearts and thoughts. We prayed for the renewal of our minds, for Jesus to change our thoughts and preconceptions we grew up with and substitute it with His thinking. While we prayed God reminded us that He will substitute the darkness (in the city)for HIS LIGHT so that the city will submit to Him as well the church, living for His Glory alone. As Church and individuals we have to acknowledge Him in all our ways and He will direct our paths. (Proverbs 3:6)
We trust God for maturity for the Leadership Team as well as every individual in church.
