PEACE IN OUR NATION

Psa 122:6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: "May they prosper who love you.

The political, financial and economic atmosphere in most countries of the world is tense and one observing this could easily conclude that such nations will soon fall apart. As citizens of God's kingdom however, we understand that we are called to make a difference in our world. It is therefore not scriptural for us to be in an office, in a place or in a nation and have things fall apart.

As citizens of God's kingdom, we possess great influence. We have prominent roles to play as believers in our geographical location. An example of this can be found in Genesis 18 where Abraham's negotiation with God caused God to rethink His proposed cause of action. We possess an even greater covenant in Christ and thus, can cause whatever change we desire to see in our nation to begin to manifest even in our lifetime. Understanding this covenant gives us confidence in God's ability.

We should learn to fully utilize our heritage in Christ Jesus by virtue of His death on the cross of calvary. Regardless of the 'deadness' of the morals of the people in a country, the power embedded in the name of Jesus can transform things around for the good of the whole nation.

Are you tired of the level of corruption, backwardness, moral decadence, economic meltdown and ungodliness in your nation? Why not take it to your Father in prayer today?

Those countries we compare to ours to were developed and prayed for by people determined to cause a change in their world. It is time for us to cause a similar change in our country by interceding for it. The future of our country lies in our hands.

CONFESSION: my country begins to benefit as a result of my presence in it in Jesus' name!

PRAYER: Transformation begins to occur in this nation in Jesus' name.
