Ephesians 2:19-22 (NKJV): Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone, in whom the whole building, being fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord, in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.

Day 10 (Tuesday 17 August) - Youth Power

by NECF Malaysia 40-Day Fast & Prayer

Never before have we experienced a wave of young people rising up in prayer, reaching out in compassion for the welfare of the nation. This is just the tip of the iceberg; we have yet to see the fullness of that which is to come. As we enter this critical hour, may His Spirit accelerate the stirring of His call to these young generations to live out their destiny in pursuit of a lifestyle of holiness that is grounded in His Word and to give Him wholehearted devotion until they come forth into His fullness.

For the church, we need to equip, empower and commission this generation to have, alongside their parents, a passion for Jesus and pursue a supernatural empowering of the Holy Spirit to fulfil His purpose. Let us not stand in the way to hinder them but release them to the Lord!

Reflection: Eph 3:16-20. How deep is your root in Christ? Do you have difficulty in communicating with youths/young adults? Use the verses to pray for the youths and for yourself.

Prayer Points
■ An outpouring of His love and power to come upon this generation that they will set themselves apart for Him and excel in His excellence. An increased hunger for the knowledge of God through His Word. Many secondary students will take up Bible Knowledge in schools.
■ Neutralize all assignments of the enemy and the prevailing trends that seek to corrupt and enslave this generation. Smoking, drug addiction, pornography, homosexuality, materialism, cyber games, gangsterism… etc
■ Godly role model who will lead, guide and mentor them. Uphold youth pastors and workers who work among them.
■ Powerful student movement among Christian youths. Raising up a band of witnesses to champion Christ in schools, colleges, vocational schools and universities . Establishing strong Christian fellowships and prayer cells.
