prayer - day 36

LORD
Satan seems to have Hillsong, Colour and Watoto on his radar. Praise you LORD, we must be moving mountains for him to attack just at the end of our 40 days of prayer. I am use to hearing bad press about Hillsong, but this targeted women, and compassion and watoto. Thank you LORD that you hear our prayers and your will is being done to save your children.

All the glory belongs to you LORD. Any good that happens from this is because of you. Because you blessed us with your words and filled us with faith to pray. We were moved to pray because of you LORD. And because we asked you were able to act through us and for us. All the glory is yours LORD. Your plans are greater than ours, your thoughts greater than ours. We only know in part what one day we will know in full.

We have no idea of the spiritual battle that has taken place because of our prayers. We have no idea of the principalities you have overthrown and protected us from. But we know all we need to know. To trust and believe in you. Believe in your saving power. Your love and grace which covers us all.

We only have a few days left LORD before the opening of the church in Gulu. LORD, keep charging forward through your people. Keep your leaders motivated and full of your Spirit so they will run this race to the very end. Because the opening is only the beginning of their work to rescue as many as possible. To build a future that will lead them into eternity.

I pray that you would make your plans crystal clear to them. Show them what needs to be done to make this successful LORD. To make this last until eternity. So they can take back what belongs to you. Return the plans you have for these children, for Uganda, to build strong christian leadership into this country.

LORD, keep their enemies away from them, and help them to find favour with all the authorities they have to deal with. Protect their grounds LORD, so it will a refuge in a storm, a safe haven for any that walk through their doors needing help.

Help them to find your children, to provide for them, and to rescue them from the darkness.

Thank you LORD for all you are doing in Gulu. For the lives you are changing, the hearts you are healing, and the minds you are renewing. Thank you LORD that no weapon formed against us shall prosper. And we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. And nothing is impossible with you.

Thank you LORD that you provide us with all we need. That you never leave us nor forsake us. But that you will always come to our rescue. That your love is unfailing. Thank you for sending your Spirit to prepare the way. To overcome strongholds, and stand in the gap for us. To intecede on our behalf and to do your will.

Thank you LORD that you are more than enough for us. We don't have the weapons of this world but we have your word which is sharper than any two edge sword. That by our faith we are able to extinguish the arrows of Satan. Thank your LORD, that no one can snatch us from your hand.

We love you LORD. We gather in your name Lord Jesus, and we know that you are in the midst of us, interceding on our behalf. amene

hi Tali,

I just wanted to let you know I am praying for them with you. Also know that because the Lord is moving and deliverance is coming of course Satan is there...my Pastor always says, here comes God, Satan is 2 steps behind Him---that is why we should always be battling.....

Love
Lill

Hi Lill
You're right. I'm just glad he's always behind us :-)

And thanks for praying for them. I sometimes get this crazy idea in my head that if all christians prayed for the same thing, we would see this world changed.
