This is not so much a discussion thread on a topic; it's a place where we bend the knee to Him who is greater than us. Please post a short prayer for sanity to return to our beloved country Nigeria. If you've got almost nothing to say, a simple "amen" or short verse to encourage others will do. Thank you.

O God, please step into our situation and stop the murders taking place in our nation. We ask in Jesus' Name. Amen.

Yes choice, I'll join you.

Lord, help us to realise that vengeance is yours and yours alone and that in as much as it feels good to take "an eye for an eye", it is more blessed to turn the other cheek. In Jesus's name we pray. Amen

Almighty God,
bless our nation
and make it true
to the ideas of freedom and justice
and brotherhood for all who make it great.


Make this great land
and all its people
know clearly Your will,
that they may fulfill
the destiny ordained for us
in the salvation of the nations,
and the restoring of all things in Christ.

Amen
Re: Would You Please Join Me In Praying For Nigeria? by choiceA: 8:50pm On Feb 24, 2006
Praise God!
Father, thank you for the gift of life, and we ask in Jesus' Name that
the shedding of blood through excuses of politics or religion will be stopped.

We pray for healing in hurt feelings, confidence instead of suspicion,
and freedom instead of the fear that has descended in the past weeks.

Thank you for mighty answers in Jesus' Name! Amen.

Oh Allah,

Towards the Expanse of thy Pardon
Have we extended our hands in Prayer
We are in urgent need of your mercy.

Oh Most Merciful,

Turn to Our Nation in its Hour of Need
Unify Nigerians, and Bring us all Closer To thee.
All Praise is Due To You Alone,
The Ever Existing, Self- Subsisting,
Watchful Guardian.

May He who dwell in Heaven cause our leaders to stop stealing our money.
May He guide OBJ to read the constitution and forget about third term.
May He convince our tertiary institution lecturers to teach and not just sell hand-out.
May He save us from and eradicate cult members in our universities.
May He teach the police not to collect bribes.
May He turn Nigerian gay wo/men to straight wo/men.
May He inspire our pastors to use the offering they collect to help build the community.
May He teach okada drivers not to drive too fast.
May He block spam mails from 419ers.
May He enable our air plane operators to service their plane before take-off.

All these and others we ask in Jesus name. Amen.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost!
My Father and Lord, I pray that the Leaders and people in Nigeria will  allow justice prevail in our country, for you are God of Justice.
Father Lord, You said You will be the Defender/Shield/Sword of the Defenseless
Oh Heavenly Father, have mercy on the millions of Defenseless/Hungry Nigerians being oppressed by a devilish system of Leadership and tribal bigotry,  remove any obstacle and all those playing god on the way of your People, just like you did in the past to save your Children from further oppression and Slavery in the hands of our political Pharaohs.
Let your mighty power, as it was on resurrection day of JESUS come down today and clean  Nigeria of all those Satanic Agents masquerading either as Political or Religious Leaders ,just like you did in the days of Abachanomics, for you alone are LORD .
Glory be to the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Ghost- as it was in the beginning and ever shall be, world without end- AMEN!

"Call unto Me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not." - Jer.33:3

Abba Father, thank you for the mercies we have received from You as a nation. The wounds in many hearts today threaten to break up Nigeria. Oh, we plead the power of your love to heal lives, restore hope, and keep us together as one strong people - that the Name of your Son, Jesus Christ may be glorified. Amen.

[center]BLACK EYED PEAS[/center][center]WHERE IS THE LOVE[/center]
[center]What's wrong with the world, mama
People livin' like they ain't got no mamas
I think the whole world addicted to the drama
Only attracted to things that'll bring you trauma
Overseas, yeah, we try to stop terrorism
But we still got terrorists here livin'
In the USA, the big CIA
The Bloods and The Crips and the KKK
But if you only have love for your own race
Then you only leave space to discriminate
And to discriminate only generates hate
And when you hate then you're bound to get irate, yeah
Madness is what you demonstrate
And that's exactly how anger works and operates
Man, you gotta have love just to set it straight
Take control of your mind and meditate
Let your soul gravitate to the love, y'all, y'all

People killin', people dyin'
Children hurt and you hear them cryin'
Can you practice what you preach
And would you turn the other cheek

Father, Father, Father help us
Send us some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me questionin'
Where is the love (Love)

Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love
The love, the love

It just ain't the same, always unchanged
New days are strange, is the world insane
If love and peace is so strong
Why are there pieces of love that don't belong
Nations droppin' bombs
Chemical gasses fillin' lungs of little ones
With ongoin' sufferin' as the youth die young
So ask yourself is the lovin' really gone
So I could ask myself really what is goin' wrong
In this world that we livin' in people keep on givin'
in
Makin' wrong decisions, only visions of them dividends
Not respectin' each other, deny thy brother
A war is goin' on but the reason's undercover
The truth is kept secret, it's swept under the rug
If you never know truth then you never know love
Where's the love, y'all, come on (I don't know)
Where's the truth, y'all, come on (I don't know)
Where's the love, y'all

People killin', people dyin'
Children hurt and you hear them cryin'
Can you practice what you preach
And would you turn the other cheek

Father, Father, Father help us
Send us some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me questionin'
Where is the love (Love)

Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love
The love, the love

I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder
As I'm gettin' older, y'all, people gets colder
Most of us only care about money makin'
Selfishness got us followin' our wrong direction
Wrong information always shown by the media
Negative images is the main criteria
Infecting the young minds faster than bacteria
Kids want to act like what they see in the cinema
Yo', whatever happened to the values of humanity
Whatever happened to the fairness in equality
Instead in spreading love we spreading animosity
Lack of understanding, leading lives away from unity
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' under
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' down
There's no wonder why sometimes I'm feelin' under
Gotta keep my faith alive till love is found

People killin', people dyin'
Children hurt and you hear them cryin'
Can you practice what you preach
And would you turn the other cheek

Father, Father, Father help us
Send us some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me questionin'
Where is the love (Love)

Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love (The love)

Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love (The love)[/center]

Mighty Of Mights we bless your name,

you are the fountain of living waters.

may you release Nigeria from the hands of oppressor.

father, the Hausa man has ruled for Long,

Now you have given it to the Yoruba brother,

Daddy, I think it is time to try the Igbo man.

May you give us an Igbo man worthy to represent the interest of the Nigerian mass,

And make our Hausa and Yoruba to understand that power should shift and that they are not the only

ones that know how to lead

Amen.

Jer. 29:11 "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end."

Father, You know all things and nothing takes you by surprise. Thank you for today, we give you praise.
We ask that your thoughts may abide with us as a nation - that we may enjoy the peace we long for from you alone, and that the evil we have seen the past month have no bearing in our future history. In Jesus' Name.

Amen.
Re: Would You Please Join Me In Praying For Nigeria? by alheri(f): 2:18pm On Mar 10, 2006
Our Father in heaven, we worship you. We praise you and give all glory and honor to you. Today Lord I ask, in the name of your holy Son Jesus.Who you sent to the world to deliver us from death unto your salvation, your Son whom you gave the name, that every knee must bow to the sound of the name Jesus. I ask oh God, deliver us and our children from people like the reverend of the kinky Mary Magdaline church. Who are decieving people in your name. Father in your word in John 10:10, you said that the devil's purpose is to steal, kill and destroy. That is exactly what this kinky church is trying to do. To steal and kill destinys and also to destroy lives. Father I pray in the name of Jesus, that you paralyse their activities in Jesus name. Even in the lives of Nigerians and people all over the world. Father help us to resist the devil that he might flee from us, grant us the grace to draw near to you so you will also draw near to us. Purify our hearts oh God so the devil will not outsmart us, for we are familiar with the devil and all his schemes. Forgive our sins oh God, in deeds and in omissions. Lord cleanse our hearts.
Help us to guard our hearts and deliver us from all evil. In Jesus Name I pray.
Re: Would You Please Join Me In Praying For Nigeria? by choiceA: 2:38pm On Mar 10, 2006
Amin oooooh!! Jesu!!

Amen and Amen!

I pray, O Father, that You grant discernment to the many people who are tempted to fall prey to schemes of the devil, both in Nigeria and beyond. Thy Word is Truth; Sanctify us with Thy Truth. In Jesus' Name.

Amen.
