Day 2

Repent for neglect of persecuted Christians (Matt 25:41-46; Ephesians 6:19-20)

Whoso stoppeth his ears at the cry of the poor, he also shall cry himself, but shall not be heard. Pro. 21: 13

• 13: 3 – Remember them that are in bonds, as bound with them; andthem which suffer adversity, as being yourselves also in the body.
  While some Christians are persecuted and hounded to death in the country, others are celebrating as if it does not concern them. Let us repent of this great selfishness and lack of concern for the Body of Christ.
• 1 Cor. 12: 26 - And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it.
  Let us repent of the lack of burden in the Church to pray for persecuted Christians as well as the failure to organize to defend them.  May God pour upon us the burden to pray for persecuted Christians.
• James 1: 27 - Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, andto keep himself unspotted from the world.
  Let us repent of the neglect of persecuted Christians in Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) camps. Widows and orphans at the camps are suffering terribly while other Christians are throwing “parties” in their churches.
• 2 Thes. 1: 6 - Seeing it isa righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you;
  As God receives our repentance, may He also recompense tribulation to all that trouble and persecute Christians in Nigeria, especially in the North.
• 2 Cor. 1: 3 -4 Blessed beGod, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfortthem which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.
  Pray divine comfort and consolation to all that have been negatively impacted by the persecutions in Nigeria. Pray that God will grant them healing and strength, and pour the joy of the Lord into their hearts.
• 15: 13 - But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.
  Pray that every structure supporting the persecution of Christians in Nigeria should be rooted out by the Almighty God.
• The Christian Social Movement of Nigeria (CSMN) with NCEF is working to send relief to persecuted Christians in IDP camps. Pray that this initiative as well as similar efforts by individuals and other organizations shall receive the support of the Church, and that wicked people shall not frustrate it nor Satan hinder it.

1 Thes. 2: 18 Wherefore we would have come unto you, even I Paul, once and again; but Satan hindered us.

• 1 Sam. 30: 8 - And David enquired at the LORD, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop? shall I overtake them? And he answered him, Pursue: for thou shalt surely overtake them,and without fail recover all
  Let us pray that Nigerian Christians shall pursue their enemies, overtake them and, without fail, recover all that they have lost.
• Any other prayer point as led by the Spirit.
