TOPIC: MANNERS OF PRAYER       DECEMBER Thursday 6th
TEXT: 1 Timothy 2: 1-3
KEY VERSE: Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the spirit and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints. Ephesians 6: 18
i. Private and Public Prayer
Pray with all fervency. Enter into your closet and pray. Find a secluded place and pray. But you can also pray publicly in the midst of others.
ii. Pray with Fasting
Pray with fasting, for Jesus said, “Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.” Add fasting to your prayer, because there are problems that cannot be solved in your life or in the life of people you are interceding for, except by fasting. There are victories that can never be won without adding fasting to your prayer. Fasting can be likened to when a bulldozer is brought in to pull down a strong tree, which normal prayer strength could not do.
iii. Pray in Vigils and Retreats
Praying through the night is part of prayer – all kinds of prayer. Ephesians 6:18  Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints. Pray in a prayer retreat. Take prayer leave from your office and go to a secluded place and pray. Jesus withdrew Himself to a solitary place and there prayed. Mark 1:35  And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, He went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed. Have a personal prayer vigil. Organize others for prayer vigils. Set days or some days aside for prayer retreat.
iv. Take Long Prayer Treks.
To overcome sleep, tiredness, laziness or visits that interrupt prayer, take off from your house or work place to a long distance down the street in prayer treks. Take a drive along a less busy road in prayer. These initiatives will relieve you from prayer fatigue.

Thought for the day: Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the spirit
Song for the day: Victory all the time
Bible reading for the day:
Daniel 7-8; 1 John 5

THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. THURSDAY 30 DECEMBER THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS TEXT: NUMBERS 14: 26-31  Key verse: Matthew 20:16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many  be called, but few chosen. Completion of the angelic message: The Lord continued. “Because of this mandate given to you, I am removing around you the uncircumcised leaders. I am going to fill their place with righteous and holy leaders from various nations and races.” Truly I had pondered if any minister has suffered like this. People I loved, cherished and lived peacefully with suddenly began to speak evil against me to my shock. Well, it happens in politics, but is limited to their countries, whereas mine is international! Yes, some ministers may have suffered these things, but that was before the advent of the Internet, so their sufferings were limited. Maybe through letters or newspapers for a limited time, but my own is in the world of the I...
