“He will deliver the needy who cry out, the afflicted who have no one to help” (Psalm 72:12).
Thanks for praying and fasting with us this Wednesday, March 16.
My wife recently heard speaker Beth Moore talk about how we should love deeply. She mentioned that not only should we love those close to us, but we should be involved in giving love to those far away who need our help. These are people who can never thank us, yet appreciate our help so very much.
Today we are going to pray for two areas like this: Japan and Nigeria. The recent devastating earthquake and tsunami in Japan continue to wreak havoc on these precious people. Churches are suffering beyond our realization. Christians are needed now to rise up and pray and help as God leads.
Second, we will pray for the people of western Nigeria, as Oasis World Ministries travels there next week to conduct crusades and pastor’s seminars. This country of 140 million people is sharply divided between Christians and Muslims. Please pray for our team’s safety, anointing, and fruitfulness.
Let’s pray.
Let’s pray for Japan.
Dear Lord,
First of all, we declare that Jesus Christ is Lord over Japan. No matter how the devil has tried to rob these people through the years, we release the continued move of Your Spirit upon these dear people as never before.
In just a single moment, You have allowed Japan to be turned upside down. Forgive us for thinking we or anyone could be invincible. Draw the Japanese people to a place of spiritual humility. Let them sense Your presence as they cry out to a God they may not even know. Turn this natural calamity into a spiritual triumph. Protect the survivors that have not yet been found. Help the rescue workers, and spare Japan we pray.
Let’s pray for Nigeria.
Dear Lord,
Again, we declare that Jesus Christ is the rightful Lord over the country of Nigeria. We bind every demonic attack that has splintered these dear people. We are thankful that You are drawing many Muslims to a saving knowledge of Your love. We pray Your anointing, protection and blessing upon the Oasis team, Pastor George Bunnell, and myself as we minister in Nigeria, and then in Liberia. We ask for much fruit, and that the fruit would remain. We pray for a remarkable unity of the Holy Spirit among the pastors and leaders who will gather. We thank You for this wonderful open door. Bless the workers now as final preparations are being made. In Jesus’ mighty name we pray, amen.
