Content:
*Matthew 9:36-38* - “Then *Jesus went about all the cities and villages*, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people. But when He saw the multitudes, *He was moved with compassion for them*, because they were weary and scattered, like sheep having no shepherd. Then He said to His disciples, “*The harvest truly is plentiful*, but the labourers are few. *Therefore pray the Lord of the harvest* to send out labourers into His harvest.”
1. Jesus went about all…(*Initiative*)
2. Jesus was moved with compassion…(*Investment*)
3. Jesus said to His disciples…(*Invitation*)
*Prayer for “Man, Marriage & Misadventure” event and “The Secret Place 2023” Convention*
We are bringing before God names of men, fathers, husbands, businessmen and leaders, community leaders, pastors, marketplace gatekeepers etc. we are inviting to our June event and the Convention in August. Considering the Lord’s command, can you fold your hands and leave men to continue to hurt, be abused, suffer addictions, backslide, be stressed, harassed and helpless? Or are you going to allow compassion to rise in you for the souls that are struggling and become the bearer of good news to them so that they can have an encounter with the saving grace of our Lord Jesus Christ?
1. *Presence*
*Exodus 33:15-16* - “Then he said to Him, “*If Your Presence does not go with us, do not bring us up from here*. For how then will it be known that Your people and I have found grace in Your sight, except You go with us? So we shall be separate, Your people and I, from all the people who are upon the face of the earth.”
Prayer Points:
*Prayer Point 1*
Father, as Your Presence was with Jesus that he went about all the cities teaching and preaching the gospel of the kingdom and healing every sickness and every disease among the people, let the same Presence come upon MAGH as we invite men and let Your glory be manifested at the June event and our convention so all men may experience the realities of the Kingdom of God.
2. *Power*
*Matthew 9:37* - “Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest truly is plentiful, but *the labourers are few.*”
When labourers are few, power is likely to be scanty.
The power that is needed for this harvest include Presence bearers, Burden bearers, Money, Compassion, Time, Skill, Prayer etc.
*Prayer Point 2*
Father, use us and send labourers and the power to do the work as we prepare for the June event and the August Convention. Release the financial, human, physical, psychological, spiritual resources required for an impactful convention to the glory of Your name. We are going to need volunteers as ushers, people that will register attendees etc. We pray for sound health and grace for everyone. Nothing shall prevent members of MAGH, invited speakers or guests from attending these events IJN.
3. *People*
*Matthew 9:37* - “Then He said to His disciples, “The *harvest truly is plentiful*…”
Are we going to permit the kingdom of darkness to keep ravaging and destroying the souls of men or are we going to get into the field and bring in the harvest?
*1 Timothy 2:3-4* - “For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour, who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.”
*Prayer Point 3*
Father, we receive the compassion for souls. Grant us the requisite wisdom and lead us to men and brothers that need to be at the convention to have an encounter with You. Let men be saved and be restored to their position of glory with You IJN.
4. *Petition*
*John 6:44* - “No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him…”
*Prayer Point 4*
Father, let Your Love draw men You have destined to be at the June event and the August Convention to you. As we invite them, let there be a desire in them to come to meet with You for a transforming experience IJN.
