Special Global Day of Prayer Edition. The following 10 prayer themes are from the 10 days of prayer preparing the way for the Global Day of Prayer on May 31st. The days are given so you can all pray on those days, joining with millions of Believers around the world. Please also pray these themes into our local area on the days you signed up for until you receive the June calendar. For the expanded version of these themes and the official prayer for the Global Day of Prayer see www.globaldayofprayer.com.

 

May 21: REVIVE - Our Father who is in heaven... pray for God to revive and unite His people as one family before Him. Pray for wayward Christians to repent & return to God as Father, learning to obey Him.

May 22: REVEAL - sanctify Your name... pray for the truth of God’s character to be exalted and honoured,  for God to distinguish Himself from every false god & to expose every false thing spoken about Him.

May 23: RULE - May Your kingdom come... pray for many to be drawn by the power of the gospel to submit their lives to Jesus Christ and for Christ’s followers to walk in the fullness of God’s Spirit.

May 24: TRANSFORM - May Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven... pray for God’s people to bring the influence and blessing of Christ into every aspect of commerce, arts, education and governance.

May 25: PROVIDE - Give us this day our daily bread... pray for the basic needs of food, water and health care for the poor, for the sick, for refugees and for children. Pray that God’s people would become, by His Spirit’s help, agents of healing and change.

May 26: FORGIVE - Forgive us our sins... pray for the Spirit of God to move on the hearts of men & women so that they will be able to see how God is grieved and how their lives are being destroyed by sin.

May 27: RECONCILE - as we forgive those who sin against us... pray to break the cycles of resentment, revenge and racism so that relationships are restored.

May 28: LEAD - And lead us not into temptation... pray for Christians to be filled with such love and zeal to please God that they are unmoved by enticements of materialism and sexual perversity.

May 29: OVERCOME - but deliver us from evil... pray that God would restrain Satanic powers, revealing the truth of the Gospel, liberating many people to follow Christ. Pray that people would be delivered from idolatry, witchcraft, demonic oppression and depression.

May 30: GLORIFY - for Yours is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory forever. Amen. Pray that signs of Christ’s kingdom will so fill the earth that many will be moved to celebrate the hope of His coming.


About The Central Florida Prayer Wall

 

What would God do in Central Florida if every hour of every day He could find someone praying for our area? What if, throughout the month, those prayers were in agreement with the prayers of hundreds of others across denominational and racial lines? The answer is nothing less than a total transformation of our city by the power of God! That is the goal of the Central Florida Prayer Wall.

The Lord gave an initial vision for the Prayer Wall which you can review on our web site (www.christiansnet.com/praycf/praycf.htm). Within the framework of that vision we seek to serve the needs and visions of participating organizations to mobilize prayer for the city.

Participating churches and ministries have committed to cover the prayer points in some fashion on the day(s) they signed up for. What form does that take? Some groups use the prayer themes as a general framework for a prayer meeting, adding additional prayer points as the Lord leads for that meeting. Others have a Prayer Wall segment of their meeting. Each group is also encouraged to expand the vision and move toward 24 hour prayer on their day. This prayer calendar is copied and distributed to people who pray individually for the prayer points. If 24 people each take a different hour then the whole day is covered. If a group is moving toward 24 hour coverage a corporate meeting is not required but the synergy between individuals praying then coming together to pray for the same topics in a unified group is very powerful. Participating groups are encouraged to submit suggestions for prayer topics and any other aspect of the Wall. Please do so, it makes the Wall stronger!

About The ongoing prayer themes

 

Revival – we are not seeking any specific outward experience or type of meeting but an inward change of heart among the Christians here in Central Florida. However God wants to accomplish it, we are asking for a lot more love, commitment, compassion, joy, etc. to be seen in the lives of believers.

Reconciliation – we know we are one in Christ, but do we demonstrate that with our actions and attitudes? Let’s pray for a real reconciliation whereby walls come down between denominations, races, cultures, generations and economic class. Jesus prayed in John 17:23, “That they may be perfected in unity, so that the world may know that You sent Me, and loved them…”. Reconciliation leading to unity blesses the heart of God but also witnesses of a living and loving God to the lost. It takes the whole Church to reach the whole city.

Reformation (or Transformation) – the face and heart of our city must be transformed for us to be the city God wants us to be, to fulfill God’s redemptive purposes for our city. As the Church is being revived and reconciled we must not hide behind the walls of our churches and homes. We must become influences for good at all levels of society, taking both God’s love and His holiness with us.

            Reaching the Lost - We need to keep at the forefront of our minds one of the main reasons for revival, reconciliation and reformation of society. It is not just so we can all get along or have more people who think like us. When God is moving IN the Church He usually moves the Church OUT to bring IN the harvest. Jesus gave us the ministry of reconciliation in 2 Cor. 5: 18,19 - “Now all these things are from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation, namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation”. We need to support in prayer the city-wide evangelism initiatives the Lord raises up to bring in the harvest in our area.

 

How to take your place on the Wall

 

            The Living Stones are taking their places on the wall – churches and ministries have signed up for most of the days of the month so far with some days claimed by multiple groups. That’s fine, the primary objective is not to fill a calendar but to raise up much prayer for Central Florida. The Central Florida Prayer Wall is coordinated by Pray Central Florida. For more information or to sign up please call George Kern at
