General Prayer Focus: Media

Specific Prayer Focus: GOD TV

Tidbit of Information: ”As Christian media pioneers, Rory & Wendy Alec broke new ground for the Kingdom of God in 1995 when they established the first daily faith-based TV network in Europe. Since then GOD TV has grown in leaps and bounds – now reaching the globe with a new breed of life-changing programming.  Today, almost half a billion people can tune in to GOD TV in the USA, UK, Europe, Scandinavia, Asia, Africa and Australasia…Year after year, by God’s grace and miraculous provision, GOD TV forges ahead to fulfill its divine mandate to reach ONE BILLION SOULS.” (Source)

Prayer: Father, as we continually draw nearer to the end of this age and the return of Your Son Jesus to the earth, we thank You for Your promise that the gospel of Your Kingdom will be preached in the whole world to all nations!  At the same time though, we recognize the growing wickedness and darkness in our day, especially in the avenue of media.  So, we ask that as the love of many grows cold that You would raise up GOD TV and other Christian media networks to fan the flame of love in the hearts of Your people and to ignite love for God in the hearts of the lost.  We pray that You would use GOD TV in a mighty way in these end-times to spread the message of the gospel throughout the world and to be a catalyst for revival among the nations!  We pray that the testimony of Jesus would go forth with power and shine like a great light in the darkness through this television network and that many hearts would be impacted as they watch.  We ask that people would be compelled to switch to the GOD TV channel and fill their eyes and minds with a message that is righteous and pure, instead of filling themselves on the empty offerings of the world.  We pray that there would be healings, signs and wonders, and millions of salvations as people watch and that You would increase GOD TV’s territory, allowing them to reach more and more people with Your gospel, in Jesus’ Name. Amen!

American Health Care Bill

Key Scripture: 1 Timothy 2:1-4

¹I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone— ²for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. ³This is good, and pleases God our Savior, ⁴who wants all men to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth. 

General Prayer Focus: LIFE/Abortion

Specific Prayer Focus: American Health Care Bill

Tidbit of Information: According to LifeNews.com, the proposed health care bill could “pay for perhaps hundreds of thousands of abortions” and the House is considering “passing the pro-abortion Senate health care bill and possibly using a procedural trick to do so that would pass the bill without taking a vote on it”.  (March 14, 2010 Email Newsletter)

Prayer: Father, I thank You that it is Your desire for all men to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth.  Today, I pray for all those in authority who have the power to influence whether or not the proposed health care bill gets passed and I ask that You would give them supernatural revelation of Your truth.  I ask that they would see the value of the life of an unborn baby and be compelled to protect that life, even if it causes repercussions for their reputations or careers.  For the senators who are pro-life, I pray that You would fill them with strength in their inner man to not give way to the pressures coming against them to change their vote.  Empower them to not compromise their beliefs and what they know to be truth – that life begins at conception and we must protect it!  

I ask that You would hear the many prayers going up to You from all those who love and defend the rights of the unborn and that You would intervene in this situation in answer to their cries.  Would You also hear the cries of the many babies who have been aborted and bring justice on their behalf, changing the political tide from pro-abortion to pro-life!  I pray that no procedural trickery would advance the cause of abortion and that You would oppose the schemes of the enemy.  Even as You are already changing the hearts of the people in the nation of America on the issue of life, would You cause it to make it’s way into the laws of this land as well.  I pray for salvations in the government and for revival to sweep across this nation, in Jesus’ Name.  Amen.

General Prayer Focus: Revival

Specific Prayer Focus: University and College Campuses

Tidbit of Information: On November 11, 2009 a student awakening and move of the Holy Spirit broke out in a class at IHOPU and has been continuing in regular nightly meetings for the last four months.  The community at the International House of Prayer is currently in the midst of a 40 day Daniel Fast to pray and intercede for revival to break out on university and college campuses around the world.  Another ministry of IHOP, the Luke 18 Project, is geared towards raising up prayer furnaces on college campuses and training and equipping student leaders to establish and run these campus prayer gatherings to interceded and contend for revival.

Prayer: Father, I thank You for the move of the Spirit that You have poured out in recent months and which is spreading to several university and college campuses.  I thank You for this gift of Your Spirit and we ask, even as You promised for the latter days, that You would pour out Your Spirit in greater measure upon all people – specifically the young men and women who are students.  God, for the many universities and colleges that were founded upon Godly principles and foundations, I ask for a revival to come to these campuses that would remind them of their spiritual heritage in You.  God, I ask that You would draw the hearts of not only the students, but also the teachers and professors, that they would be brought to salvation and be impacted by the power of Your love.  I pray that You would send dreams and visions to these students and faculty and reveal Jesus as their Savior, that they would call upon His name.  Amen!
