TOPIC of PRAYER: Pray to Resist Satan’s Persecution, Part 4

SCRIPTURE READING
John 15:20
Remember the word that I spoke to you: 'No servant is greater than his master.' If they persecuted Me, they will persecute you as well; if they kept My word, they will keep yours as well.

BRIEF EXHORTATION:
Luke 21:12
But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name's sake.

According to an online report, ‘every day, 8 Christians are killed, worldwide, because of their faith. ‘Every week, 182 churches or Christian buildings are attacked’. And every month, 309 Christians are imprisoned unjustly.

Abduction of Christians is a new category tracked in this year’s report, with 1,052 tallied worldwide. Nigeria tops the list, with 224.

Nigeria also leads the newly tracked categories of forced marriages (accounting for 130 out of 630 worldwide), attacked Christian homes (1,500 out of 3,315), and looted Christian shops (1,000 out of 1,979).

Of the top 7 nations where Christians are raped or sexually harassed, 4 are recipients of migrant workers in the Arabian Peninsula: Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, and the United Arab Emirates. Nigeria is eighth. Worldwide there were 8,537 recorded cases, but the report warns this tally is just the tip of the iceberg, as many assaults occur in private and are not reported.

India ranks first in the new category of physical or mental abuse, which includes beatings and death threats. The continuing rise in the subcontinent of a militant Hindu nationalism contributed to 1,445 of the reported 14,645 cases worldwide. China has jailed or detained without charge 1,147 Christians for faith-related reasons, out of a total of 3,711 worldwide. This number rose from 3,150 last year.Where the Most Churches Were Attacked or Closed:
1. (China: 5,576,) 2. (Angola: 2,000,) 3.(Rwanda: 700,) 4. (Myanmar: 204,) 5. (Nigeria: 150,) 6. (Ethiopia:124,) 7.(Burundi: 100,) 8. (Mali: 100,) 9. (Pakistan: 58,) 10. (Burkina Faso: 50).

Brethren, all these things are real and are moving closer to us every day. Let us prepare and brace ourselves for them and be ready for rapture. I pray God will help us.


PRAYER POINTS:
1. Lord, Almighty God, please empower me through your Holy Spirit to remain your good child unto the end of my life, even in the midst of persecution.

2. Dear God, please help me to respond to every situation and trials with godly attitudes in the endtime.

3. I pray, O Lord, endow me with more grace that is sufficient when the going is getting tougher in these last days.

5. O Lord, I hide myself and my family under the shadow of the almighty God from every assault and harassment of the kingdom of darkness, in this endtime.

TOPIC of PRAYER: Pray to Resist Satan’s Persecution, Part 3

SCRIPTURE READING
John 15:20
Remember the word that I spoke to you: 'No servant is greater than his master.' If they persecuted Me, they will persecute you as well; if they kept My word, they will keep yours as well.

BRIEF EXHORTATION:
Revelation 6:9-11
And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:

And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?

And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.

The scripture above shows that there are believers or Christians or children of God that must be persecuted to death or beheaded for this gospel.

Brethren, have you ever sat down and thought about this scripture and asked yourself, ’why will God allow his children to be killed? Secondly, who are these Christians? Thirdly am I among these that must need to pass through this or have you ever thought about been arrested by terrorist or Islamic jihadist and they pointed gun at you asking you to renounce your faith as christian and live or to hold on to your faith as christian and die?. What do you think you will do?

Beloved, this is the high time to start thinking about these things because persecution or beheading is one of the things trending now in many Africa countries. Nigeria is among the top three countries of the world where it difficult to live as a Christian.

Lastly, people of God let us start to prepare ourselves and families ready for persecution. Let us always say it to our family that whatever be the case we must not deny Jesus even if they want to kill us.

PRAYER POINTS:
1. Lord, Jesus Christ, whatever be the case or situation, help me not to deny your name and your faith in this endtime.

2. O Lord, give me boldness, courage and strength to always choose you as my Lord even at the point of killing.

3. Lord, Jesus Christ, help me to stand in oneness with your spirit and one mind striving for the faith of this gospel in these last days.

4. Lord, Jesus Christ, as you help the apostle Paul to fight the good fight of faith (2 Tim 4:7) help me also in this endtime to fight the good fight of faith and to lay down my sword at your feet and to receive me into your kingdom.

5. Lord, Jesus Christ, whatever persecution I must need to pass through, help me to keep your faith to the end, remain faithful to you to the end and to receive the crown of life from you.

Revelation 2:10
Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.

6. Lord, Jesus Christ, help me to find peace in the sufficiency of God’s grace in this endtime and even in my weakness.

7. Lord, Jesus Christ, when circumstances are rough and rash, help me to respond positively so that devil can be ashamed and your name be glorified.

8. Lord, Jesus Christ, just by your mercy see me through to your glorious kingdom in these last days.

Jesus is coming. Stay ready in absolute repentance, watchfulness and holiness.

The whole vaccine issue is complicated

This generation is worse than Sodom and Gomorrah.
Repent from rape and seek the Lord for mercy.

Look before you leap; not leap before you leap.

The true safety and security is in the name of the Lord, Jesus Christ, as it is written, 'The Name of the Lord is a Strong Tower, the Righteous Runs In and They Are Safe'.

We have taken note of what you said. We hope you won't come back and say you talked too early.

Anger is a very ruthless spirit of destruction. Tame it before it leads you to destruction and regret.

Give your life to Jesus to overcome spirit of anger

Tell me one good reason why a reasonable person should join cult.

Hell is real! Don't let your rival cult send you there before you want to repent!

Give your life to Jesus today and be delivered.

I pray God will help them to rescue the girl in Jesus name. Amen

Draslo:
The devil is in the hearts of men including the person that wants to deliver someone else.

Deliverance from who? The same devil that we're told is omnipresent as well? Lol. Don't make me laugh abeg.

The devil is not omnipresent! Whoever made you believe that has succeeded in deceiving you big time.

From the way you talked, it seems you have so much respect for the devil or you are serving him.

Kobojunkie:
I read the vaccines have arrived in Nigeria. Have your dreams been upgraded to nightmares right about now?

Kobojunkie, calm down.

Pump actions!
Did you mean to say armed robbers instead of yahoo boys?

Skilz4real:
Their evil plan is to make the ones that refuse to take to suffer. Stock your house with food and be ready for their evil policy on this vaccine issue.

TOPIC of PRAYER: Pray to Resist Satan’s Persecution, Part2

SCRIPTURE READING
John 15:20
Remember the word that I spoke to you: 'No servant is greater than his master.' If they persecuted Me, they will persecute you as well; if they kept My word, they will keep yours as well.

BRIEF EXHORTATION:
We live in time and age when systematic persecution of saints is at the horizon. Christians suffer hostility and direct attacks for our belief. The Bible encourages us to remain steadfast in God. There are two types of persecutions coming up in this end time; they are the pre rapture persecution and the post rapture persecution.
Pre rapture persecution is the one that will happen before rapture.

Matthew 24:9
Then they will hand you over to be persecuted and killed, and you will be hated by all nations on account of My name's sake.

The pre-rapture persecution, at its highest point, will trigger rapture. The book of revelation chapter six talks about breaking of the seven seals. When the Lord, Jesus Christ, opened the fifth seal, the persecution of believers begins and when he opened the six seal it was the rapture that happened.

Revelation 6:9-10
And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held: And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?

Brethren, the persecution of believers have started and that is why we see more persecution in this period. The church is passing through birth pain or birth pang of rapture. I pray God will see us through in Jesus mighty name.

PRAYER POINTS:
1. Lord, Jesus Christ, help me and empower me to keep the word of your patience in this end time and keep me away from the hour of temptation, persecution and trials of these last days, As you promise the Philadelphia church.

2. Lord, Jesus Christ, help me to be well-built spiritually upon your word in this end time, to be able to face all challenges that may come my ways. Matt 7:24-27

3. Lord, Jesus Christ, by the power of Your might, put on me the armour of God, to shield me from the attacks and the devices of Satan and his kingdom in this last day. Eph 6:10-12

4. Lord, Jesus Christ, by the power of Your might, put on me the armour of God, to make me be able to stand against the Wiles of the devil and to withstand the evil days ahead.

5. Lord, Jesus Christ, by the power of Your might, grant me shield of faith to quench the fiery darts of persecutions, temptation and all trials of the wicked one in this end time.

6. Lord, Jesus Christ, in any furnace fire of persecutions and other trials that I may need to pass through to get to your kingdom and to be raptured, stand by me and uphold me as you did to three Hebrew men In the furnace of fire in the land of Babylon. Dan 3:24-25

7. Lord, Jesus Christ, as you gave the three Hebrew boldness, courage and strength to reject the worship of image set up by Nebuchadnezzar, grant me also boldness to say ‘no’ to persecutor, courage to choose you in persecution and strength to remain standing in my decision for you and remain loyal to You unto the end.

JESUS is coming. Stay ready in absolute repentance, watchfulness and holiness.

He understands the risks involved but cannot say no because of their oga living inside rock at Abuja.

First page since morning; people are not even interested in any vaccine thread.

It is not leadership by example. it conspiracy and deceptions to make gullible citizens sheepishly take the injection

There is so much conspiracies and lies. We can't Trust anyone, anymore.

Dtruthspeaker:
I understand! I wanted to say some things but the weight of your good desire is sweet and Truly desirable, so I too will join you in lifting up a prayer to The Lord also.

It is indeed a good petition, I am thankful and honoured that I have been so enlightened!

Can't you imagine how Abraham would have felt if God had confided in him about the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah and Abraham did not intercede for them and God eventually destroyed them.

Abraham would have been terribly annoyed with himself. He would feel like 'and I know God would listen to me if I pleaded with Him but then I failed to plead and now Sodom is destroyed. why did God even tell me about the destruction in the first' Abraham would be so bitter with himself.

but then Abraham pleaded from fifty to ten, by still, Sodom was destroyed. Abraham would feel a great relief in his heart. He would be like 'I did my best to save Sodom.

Sometimes I learnt a very bitter lesson. One of my cousins was very sick and I never prayed for him. Then I had a dream and saw him in an hopeless situation on the hospital bed. Then later, I saw that he was in my house; I was praying for him.

After the dream, I did not do anything. I didn't pray for him nor ask after him. About two weeks after that, they called to tell me that he died in the hospital. I was in a public bus when the call came. I felt so displeased with myself. if it were possible, I could have been slapping myself to show my displeasure with myself. I was saying 'and God showed me o' repeated in the bus. And the most pathetic of the story was that he died as an unbeliever.

The question is 'why did God show me? Is it not to intercede? if I had interceded and he died later, will I be much angry with myself? No. I will only be saying that we tried our best or God knows best.

Dtruthspeaker:
Do you not realise that you pray in futility, running smack into A Wall Placed by The Lord on High?

The Lord hath Said that They Must Do These vile things, so surely, you would not be attempting to make God a Liar?

Let this thread go!

You surely know I can't call God a liar.

But let me explain some things to you.

The prophecies of earthquake, wars, Sodomy and some others given by the Lord were open prophecies. This means since no actual places were mentioned, it could be fulfilled by any body.

Now, let me use an earthquake as an example. Supposing prophecy came out of an earthquake to happen in Nigeria, if we cry to God in humble repentance, God can do any of the following

-1. He can totally stop Nigeria from having earthquake but since earthquake are still happening in other places, that prophecy of earthquake is still being fulfilled.

-2. God can divert the earthquake into a jungle where nobody is living and preserve the city.

-3. God can reduce the quake to a slight tremor that will not have any major effect.

But to say that you will not do anything because it has been prophesied is not good enough.

Now, let me come to this LGBT of a thing!

Nigeria has not legalised it. Thank God for that. Some others have legalised. If the thing is legalised or come to the extent of doing open gay parade, then we should be prepared for God's wrath. I f we cried to God about it and the government did not allow, those concerned that want to openly have their way can go to places where it has been allowed.

By so doing, prophecy is still fulfilled.

The only reason Nigeria has not plunged into full war is because the mercy God is still showing us as a response to some people's prayers. But we are having protests, violences but not war. whichever way prophecy is still fulfilled but we can't fold our arms and just be looking because it has been prophesied.

TOPIC of PRAYER: Pray to Resist Satan’s Persecution, Part1

SCRIPTURE READING:
John 15:20
Remember the word that I spoke to you: 'No servant is greater than his master.' If they persecuted Me, they will persecute you as well; if they kept My word, they will keep yours as well.

BRIEF EXHORTATION:
The device of the devil we are looking at, this week, is persecution. The general definition says ‘Persecution is a cruel and unfair treatment of a person or group, especially because of their religious or political beliefs, or their race. But we are only looking at Christian persecution. Christian persecution refers to persistently cruel treatment, often due to one's believe in God, through Jesus Christ.

There are still some circumstances in the 21st century, where Christians are persecuted because of their beliefs. One example is the bombing of Christian churches around the world.

2 Timothy 3:12
Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.

The two scriptures above tells us that persecution is inevitable for every legitimate child of God, infact persecution is of the things that makes us to be a stronger christain. An international minister of God says Lord Jesus Christ told him to prepared him body of my martyrs because persecution is coming to that nation. People of God, this called that this minister of God received from the Lord is not meant for those people alone but all the believers in Christ Jesus should prepare themselves for persecution and to be martyrs in these last days. I pray God will help us.

PRAYER POINTS:
1. Abba Father, persecution is coming closer every day, from enemy of our souls. But I choose to stand on your promises and I rest in the comfort of your Word that says in (2 Timothy 4:18 – The Lord will rescue me from every evil attack and will bring me safely to his heavenly kingdom. To him be glory for ever and ever. Amen.)

2. Lord Jesus Christ, I pray that you shut the mouth of the enemy. Bring every plot and devise he has planned for my life to naught in Jesus name.

3. Loving Savior, we live in an evil world and know that you are coming back soon for your church, protect me from persecution and all evil in Jesus name.

4. Lord, Jesus Christ, help me to remain stronger in persecution and help me to keep my faith unto the end in the name of Jesus Christ.

5. Lord, Jesus Christ, deliver me and give me victory from every persecution planned against me by Satan and his kingdom.

6. Lord, Jesus Christ, help me and give me victory from every test of faith that I must pass through in this end time in Jesus name.

7. Lord, Jesus Christ, help me and give me victory from every trials of faith that I must past through in this end time in Jesus name.

JESUS is coming. Stay ready in absolute repentance, watchfulness and holiness.

Justice delayed is justice denied. The cries of injustices across the nation is threatening slot of things

Join cult is like officially signing your death warrant by yourself.

There is no physical solution to a spiritual problem

Issues of sexual intercourse are so volatile both spiritually and physically that it can lead to anything especially outside of marriage.

I hardly hear that wife dies while having it with her husband and vice versa but I have heard countless cases of men dieing on top of prostitutes and concubines and vice versa.

May God give the family of the deceased courage to bear the loss.

Because that was your crafty aim in the first place. Snakes like you should be handled on a different plane, what do i know, lol. Like your dad, you know the Bible but you are trying to trap him not seeking for truth.
