FORGIVE OUR SINS IN NAMIBIA

Tuesday 18 May 2010
10 Days of night-and-day prayer: Day 6

...Forgive us our sins...

• Pray for the Spirit of God to move in the hearts of men and women so that they will be able to see how God is grieved and how their lives are being destroyed by sin.
• Pray for the Spirit of God to empower people to abandon patterns of sin and find grace to renounce allegiance to powers of darkness.
• Pray for recognition of and repentance from sins that bring about war, poverty and injustice.
  

…a call to HOPE

"Then the Lord will be jealous...and take pity on His people...Be not afraid ... be glad and rejoice. Surely the Lord has done great things." (Joel 2:18, 21).

Read Joel 2:18-22. We can be zealous about repenting because God is jealous of His name and of His people. Because of God's great love, our repentance should be bold and fearless. Our God will contend with the forces that devastate our communities. As great as the evil may be, God will do even greater things. Such hope brings joy as we sincerely turn to God, knowing that He desires to bring great goodness throughout the earth, transforming our cities, restoring our economies and healing our lands.
