Call to Prayer

PRAYING FOR THE NATION

Many Christians around the world pray for their nations and the witness of their churches on Pentecost Sunday each year -What we know as The Global Day of Prayer.

Scripture reminds us to pray for the nation and for our leaders. 'If my people, who are called by my Name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land' ( 2 Chronicles 7:14). Again,Paul urges 'first of all that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone-..kings and all in authority.. that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness' ( 1 Timothy 2:1-2).

The Nationwide Christian Trust is committed to praying for the nation, and in every edition of Living Light is Living Prayer where many issues affecting the Nation are included. You may feel the Lord is calling you to commit yourself or your church more fully to such prayer at such a time as this.We would encourage you to take whatever action locally you believe is needed. If you feel that N.C.T can help in any way, please let us know.
