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 15 (Sunday 22 August) - Only Way!

by NECF Malaysia 40-Day Fast & Prayer

We are not here in this beautiful nation by chance but by His divine appointment, being part of His glorious plan to bring redemption to all people groups in the nation. The destiny of 28 millions comprising various people groups lies in our hands! Since the beginning of time, the enemy has stolen, robbed, perverted and blinded the hearts and minds of the people groups to worship him and alienated them from the life of God. We are here for a MISSION and VISION for the nation. There is only One Way, One Hope, One Faith, One Life - all found only in Jesus Christ. The hope lies with the Church taking hold of the keys to change the course of history and destiny of this nation to redeem all mankind to Him. Is your life a witness that points people from all faith to Him? Or do you see the magnitude of the task and shrink back?

Reflection: 2 Pet 3:9, Col 1:10, 13, 14, 20-27. What is your purpose and mission in life? Commit it to the Lord and confess where we have failed to be His witness in our character, attitude and lifestyle.

Prayer Points
■ In identification repentance on behalf of the nation and people groups, ask the Lord for forgiveness for idolatry and for Him to set all people groups free from their spiritual blindness and break every pact and allegiance to the god of this age.
■ Decree open heavens for outpouring of His spirit upon all people groups to bring spiritual awakening and unprecedented revival.
■ The Lord to prepare His Church; Body of Christ in all generations to be equipped and empowered to teach, disciple and mentor new believers. Passion and compassion for the lost.
■ Churches to be set ablaze with hearts for missions to plant home churches in places among people where the gospel has not been preached, both locally and beyond our borders.
