Psalms 36:5-8

⁵ Your love, Lord, reaches to the heavens,
    your faithfulness to the skies.
⁶ Your righteousness is like the highest mountains,
    your justice like the great deep.
    You, Lord, preserve both people and animals.
⁷ How priceless is your unfailing love, O God!
    People take refuge in the shadow of your wings.
⁸ They feast on the abundance of your house;
    you give them drink from your river of delights.

Preserve us Lord even as we take refuge in the shadow of your wings.

• Abandoned devotion lifestyle- Ukraine and Russia

Father we pray for a hunger and a thirst for you in these countries, may they find their fulfillment in you rather than in materialism and secularism we ask. We understand with the fall of communism there is a vacuum and lawlessness in young people’s lives, therefore, may they seek you as Lord and master over their lives and learn to submit themselves under your ruler ship we ask.

Pour out your Holy Spirit upon them; satisfy them that they will not seek to go back to their old lives of prostitution and immorality.

• Spiritual awakening

Zechariah 10:1

10 Ask the Lord for rain in the springtime;
    it is the Lord who sends the thunderstorms.
He gives showers of rain to all people,
    and plants of the field to everyone.

Lord we ask you for rain, spiritual awakening in Russia and Ukraine, send forth showers of your blessings to these two lands for your glory. Just as you did to the dry bones in Ezekiel 37, Lord bring the dry bones in these two countries back to life and May you raise a mighty army for your kingdom we pray. 

We pray for the following;

·        Descend and stir the orthodox church for revival, help them to be sensitive to the Holy spirit and rely on Him and not on their bureaucratic strategies of doing ministry

·        Just like Anna of the bible, raise intercessors to be watchmen and raise a mighty movement of prayer among the young people we ask

·        Raise leaders who long to see the churches come to spiritual maturity and for your touch among them, anoint teachers of your word.

·        Pray for breakdown of religiosity and the rising of true biblical Christianity

·        We ask for new wine skins in the churches ; raise ministry, church structures that will align themselves with the new testament Christianity

• New message bearers

We pray that the young people you are preparing and raising up for missions will stand firm, open their hearts to have more compassion for the unreached people, give them more opportunities and platforms to go out as message bearers, prepare them to go and reach Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan with the gospel of Jesus Christ for your glory.

Equip student ministries and local churches so as they will be able to impart the young peoples’ lives with discipleship and the vision for global harvest.

Thank you for the message bearers already in the field from these countries; we pray for provision, protection upon them and their families. May you provide both material and moral support even as you provide quality education for their children.

• Unreached city- Rabat in Morocco

We pray against persecution and we ask for the breaking of Islam and the spread of the gospel of Jesus Christ to the whole country with a mighty wave of the Spirit. Equip the message bearers that they will not be afraid of sharing the gospel. Touch the hearts of those in authority to give freedom of religion even as you continue making a way for the growth of Christianity in Morocco.
