Psalm 34:1-3 I will extol the Lord at all times; his praise will always be on my lips. I will glory in the Lord; let the afflicted hear and rejoice. Glorify the Lord with me; let us exalt his name together.
We are gathered here this afternoon, our Jehovah, to exalt Your name on high in our prayer and supplication. This is because You oh Lord is at hand; You told us to not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving to let our requests be made known to You. And Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, will guard our hearts and our minds in Christ Jesus. We recognize You as Lord over our lives and the very indwelling of the Holy Spirit makes us bear fruit. We recognize Your sovereignty over all of Your creation and You cause everything to work together for good to those who love You. We love You Lord.
We desire for Your Kingdom to come and Your will to be done on Earth as it is in heaven. You have caused for Your Kingdom of righteousness to reign over us and together, we will call upon Your name while You may be found. We recognize Your Kingdom of joy, peace, contentment and comfort to come upon Your people as we are in dire thirst of the fullness of Your presence and the freshness that comes from the Living Water. As we, Keys of the Kingdom Life in the Spirit Fellowship gather to remember Your faithfulness for 40 years, we celebrate how You have united us as one body and we continue to move in unity, love and joy that You who began a good work in this church shall take it to completion. Your will upon the vision You impressed in the heart of Reverend Michael Pangwi and Sister Lydia Pangwi may continue to pave the way of Jesus as He comes to gather those who had been carefully preparing to welcome Your coming from every homecells, zones, districts, local and international outreaches. May Your will be for the eqquiping and encouragement of our associate pastors, their wives, children and family including those who walk, who help and supports the anointing that flows from the leaders down to everyone who walks and runs in the same vision.
We recognize You as our provider, Jehovah Jireh, You are our Father who doesn’t hold back in giving what is good, because every good gifts come from You. You have caused blessings to follow us all the days of our lives as we obey and do Your Word. You have allowed our territories to increase because as our substance increase Your heart is for us to be a blessing to others, to manage these resources wisely and to give cheerfully to those whom You would want to bless through us. We thank You, yes Lord for Your goodness. We declare that You own everything that we have from all these material blessings, financial capacity, our children, our students, friends, neighbors and family. We have nothing to boast but in Your name, allow us to honor You for all that You have entrusted under our care. Whatever we think we lack and need, You will fill because You always open opportunities for us to be victorious in providing for our families. We glorify Your name for every moment You have blessed the work of our hands even before we ask. We owe You our lives and we desire for Your wisdom to come upon us in conducting our matters discreetly.
You said that if we, Your people who are called by Your name will humble ourselves, and pray and seek Your face and turn from our wicked ways, then You will hear from heaven and will forgive our sin and heal our land. We, Your people are calling on Your name right this hour because Your will is greater and higher than ours. We had been once slave to sin and are now slave to You oh God. We renounce our constant dwelling in the past and comparing it to the troubles of today. Forgive our sins, for lusting on our fleshly desires, lusting over what our eyes desire to find and holding pride in our hearts which causes division and death. May forgiveness reign over us that we have no reason to hold grudges against each other. To those who have wronged us, both knowingly and unknowingly, may we find the courage to forgive as You have forgiven Your people through Your son Jesus Christ. May Your forgiveness reign over countries at war, over political leaders in misunderstanding, over neighbors who can not bear each other’s presence, over every husband and wives who thinks there is no hope in their marriage and over every sibling rivalries.
Lead us not to be tempted in returning to our old selves that we will forget our standing with You. Deliver us from the whiles of the enemy who spread lies for us to not see the truth that there is hope in You. Deliver us from every insecurities and lead us to the way eternal. Deliver us from being complacent and easy going in our Spiritual Growth. Deliver us from thinking we know more than anyone else but humble us to the point that we may fear You, because from fearing You is where Godly wisdom come from. Deliver Your people from sadness for the loss of their families both from natural calamities, war, sickness and social circumstances. May Your comfort reach every home.
We claim Your protection upon each of us wherever You may call us for the furtherance of Your Kingdom. Protect the younger generation in the faith that they believe in – that Christ is the only way, the truth and the life. Equip your people with a ready answer when our faith is being questioned. Cause us not to be swayed, but persistently move towards their goal to serve You and fulfill their calling. Protect every ministers whom You have called to be a witness of Your goodness. Protect every home just as how You have passed over each home when the Israelites were in Egypt. That no death shall come upon each home who have claimed the blood of Jesus Christ – the Lamb who was slain for our redemption – over their home.
We continue to rely upon the wisdom that comes from You and that every decisions we make from now, moving forward are all for the glory of Your name. As long as the tomb where Christ had been laid is empty, we celebrate Jesus’ victory over this life and over death. We praise You because You are a living God and our faith is true. We declare Your government upon all government, Your Kingdom over all kingdoms, Yours is the power and the honor forever and ever In Jesus Name Amen
