At Chainda II we continued our lesson on Prayer Walking. This time we used our left hand to demonstrate 5 different places you could go to do prayer walking. I was just going to use my fingers this time because I didn't know of any hand signals. Then I had the idea of letting them make up some hand signals that went along with each one. They did a great job and it was fun.
I'm going to list the 5 places to go and then a prayer request for each.
1-Places of Government/chief/headman.
Pray that places of government would rule their people with justice and righteousness. Ask God to bring salvation to those in authority.
2-Places of Education.
Pray that God would transform the hearts of the teachers to turn to God. Pray for the children in the schools to get a good education and that they would learn truth and grow in wisdom.
3-Places of Business.
Ask God to create new hearts in buyers and sellers. Ask God to help them understand that He is their provider, sustainer, Redeemer, and Lord.
4-Places of Religion.
Pray that people would have their eyes opened to see that no one can come to salvation except through Jesus Christ. Pray that idolatry would be destroyed.
5-Places of Community.
Ask God to transform each community or village. Pray that people would honor God in their speech and behavior as they meet together at the well, the market, at the bus stop, or where ever they may be.
When we finished the lesson all 13 of us chose one of these places and then we had an extended time of prayer for them. It was a special time.
