NATIONAL PRAYER ALTAR
MARATHON PRAYERS
Monday 28th August – Sunday 3rd September 2023
PRAYER POINTS
1. Ps. 124 – Thank God for preserving Nigeria.
2. Prov. 29: 26 As all eyes are on the judiciary, the Word of God reminds us that righteous judgment comes from the Lord.
Pray that God, the Righteous Judge of all flesh, shall judge the Presidential Election Petition case for Nigeria.
Pray that if the Justices are willing, let God work through them to give Nigeria a righteous judgment, but if they are unwilling, pray that God will still give judgment in spite of their personal inclinations.
Prov. 18: 5; Prov. 21: 3; Prov. 24: 23
3. 2 Kings 9: 1-3 Last week, a word came on various altars that God should judge idolatry and witchcraft in the land. When witchcraft, idolatry and injustice reached a zenith in Israel, God released a peculiar anointing to deal with the situation.
Nigeria is currently witnessing a flagrant display of sorcery, abominable rituals, unprecedented acts of wickedness and pervasive unrighteousness.
Pray that God shall release the anointing of Jehu upon Nigeria to deal with the evil in the land.
4. This reinforces the prayer above.
Is. 26: 9 – 11 There is need for judgment from God so that righteousness can flourish in Nigeria. According to the word of God, the judgment of God will start from the Church. 1 Pet. 4: 17.
If we truly desire righteousness and peace in the land, we must pray for God’s judgment upon evil and unrighteousness in the country. God made it clear in His word that righteousness will only come after He has executed judgment.
Pray for the judgment of God to be released upon Nigeria.
5. 1 Cor. 5: 12 – 13 God commands Christians to judge evil within the Church while He would judge the evil outside the Church. The practice in the Church is that Christians ignore evil within the Church while they judge and condemn the evil of the unbelievers.
As Christians, pray for God to judge every Church leader that sanctions and endorses this evil government that is determined to pervert the will of Nigerians and is attempting to use corruption, witchcraft, and sorcery to impose itself upon the country.
Pray that God will speedily judge any Christian leader who openly, or secretly, supports this flagrant evil in the land.
6. According to Oswald Smith, “In the Irish Revival of 1859, people became so weak that they could not get back to their homes. Men and women would fall by the wayside and would be found hours later pleading with God to save their souls. They felt that they were slipping into hell and that nothing else in life mattered but to get right with God. To them eternity meant everything. Nothing else was of any consequence. They felt that if God did not have mercy on them and save them, they were doomed for all time to come.”
Acts 2: 1 – 4 Pray for outpouring of the Holy Ghost upon Nigeria. Pray for revival.
Acts 1: 8 – Pray for the fulfilment of this promise upon Christians in Nigeria.
7. Plead the blood of Jesus to cover Nigeria and nullify every operation of Satan and his forces in the country.
Plead the blood of Jesus to cancel every divination, incantation, invocation of evil, necromancy, sorcery, and every evil word that is released into Nigeria.
Is. 8: 10 – Decree that no word from the kingdom of darkness shall stand in Nigeria.
