prayer - day 16

i've noticed how long my prayers are getting. So i've decided to pray a few short ones since i think the LORD has heard me go on and on now. I just get so passionate about the children that it just pours. let's try short!

LORD

You know our hearts' desires to rescue the children of Gulu and heal their land. Satan has been working overtime in Uganda. He is trying to steal, kill and destroy their future. But you LORD, you are restoring this future to them. Filling the children with hope, restoring their innocence so they can once again be full of promise.

Thank you LORD, that your plans are to prosper them and not to harm them, but to give them a hope and a future. Thank you LORD that you are more than able to do the impossible. That greater are you who live in us then he who is in the world.

Thank you for helping Watoto to achieve your purpose. To provide a refuge from the storm for these children and young mothers who have abused and rejected. As they go about their work today Lord in bringing your cause closer to fulfilment that they will find favour with the local authorities and support from international organisations in power. That you are with them right now as they make wise choices about the facilities and the children they need to help.

If the government and rebel leaders are meeting today, then please go before them and prepare the way for resolutions and peace. Renew the strength of your believers and let them fly like eagles today LORD. Give them courage and compassion as they work together to end this nightmare.

Thank you LORD that you are working behind the scenes as we speak. That your purposes are being achieved and Satan's hold is being loosened. In your name Lord Jesus, your mighty and powerful name, amene
