Dear Friends,
Somebody said, “Preachers tell us that we should pray more and with more depth. I agree with them, but I have an embarrassing confession to make: I don’t know what to say when I pray. After 5 minutes, I am prayed out.”
So, for those who need some help, here’s some PRAYER POINTS to guide us in our prayer journey:
• National life: The “succession” battle in the ANC is “hotting” up. Let us pray for God’s will to be done and that God would protect us from cynicism and despair.
• Crime: Over 18 000 people are murdered in South Africa every year. Lord, protect us from evil and please break the forces of darkness.
• Health: Terrible plagues are sweeping our country – AIDS, TB, Alcoholism, drug abuse. Lord please heal us.
• Poverty: Over 30% of our population is unemployed and millions of people live in grinding poverty. Lord please help us to identify with the poor.
• The Kingdom of God: The Word needs to be received as Saviour and Lord by all people. Lord help us to tell and be the Good News of Jesus to a lost world.
• Lastly, please pray for the Methodist Conference meeting next week in Cape Town, our local church and for Benoni.
Much love to you
In prayer together
THE MINISTRY TEAM
