A World Cup Prayer

This is a summary of what was preached before praying for the coming world cup (25/05/2010)

The church, Change Bible Church-Henley Branch dedicated itself to win 261 souls during the period of the world cup. This stand was taken during a home cell prayer. Each member of the church made a commitment to win souls during this period.

“God says we must pray.” Said Mom Rose.

“Psalms 124:1-7 with main focus on 6 & 7 says, ‘1. If the Lord had not been on our side – let Israel say, 2. If the Lord had not been on our side when men attacked us, 3. when their anger flared against us, they would have swallowed us alive; 4. the flood would have engulfed us, the torrent would have swept over us, 5. the raging waters would have swept us away. 6. Praise be to the Lord who has not let us be torn by their teeth. 7. We have escaped like a bird out of the fowler’s snare; the snare has been broken, and we have escaped.’”

“We need to pray brethren . Why do we have to pray? We pray because we need salvation. We pray always without season. People need to be saved."

“The world cup is an opportunity of life time. I don’t think it will ever come again in our life time.” Said mom Rose.

“Then, the question is; what must I do during this world cup period? There must be something I do as a Christian. I have read in a booklet that, some of the countries coming to South Africa; salvation is not preached. God is bringing this world cup to South Africa for a good purpose. People have said negative things about this world cup, but I see our visitors receiving Jesus during their stay in this country.”

“Someone told me that, on the last day of the world cup, there will be attacks against foreigners. Let me tell you, with our God nothing negative will happen. We will group ourselves to pray against the enemy. We will target the B&Bs; hotels; market places and other places where our visitors will be found. And we are determined to preach the word of God.”

“We are in South Africa and we will stand in the gap. We are going to pray for Jerusalem for peace. The myths of the private meetings of distruction will not succeed.”

“The spirit of darkness is rebuked. God has good plans for this world cup; and we are aware that the devil is planning on the other side.”

“Jesus was born in a kraal, and that happened for a purpose. It is for this purpose that many will receive their salvation and know Jesus in South Africa. South Africa is their kraal to come face to face with Jesus.”

“We will pray for peace and victory for Jesus; for South Africa and our boys so that no one is left to die.”

“Be strong in the Lord. We need to pray for safety, salvation and everything to go well. We will pray against accidents. The devil has planned distructions, but we will stand in the gap.”

“I had a vision sometimes back. I was taken to a place on my way to work. I came across a shelter and I saw animals and a dog with no furs standing outside the shelter. These animals had to be inside but they were tied outside the shelter. This means the shelter was Jesus and I heard the voice challenging me to preach the word to people so that they can come inside the shelter.”

“we can’t keep quiet brethren. God called us for a purpose and we will stand in the gap.”

“This is the time to pray and preach the word to the lost to come into salvation.”
