7 WEEKS PRAYER ACTION TO DEAL

WITH THE GROWING EVIL OF KIDNAPPING IN NIGERIA

 

PREAMBLE

 

Kidnapping incidents in the country have been persistently looming over and around us in alarming dimensions.

The crime is no doubt expanding and raising palpable fears across the nation. The target population has shifted from the rich to virtually all Nigerians, as evidenced by indiscriminate abductions nationwide.

On daily basis, many innocent citizens are falling victims to the rise in this crime and are having to pay millions of naira in ransom.

The development apart from the obvious implications to national security is in addition having its toll on the enthusiasm of foreigners wishing to invest in the country.

To make matters worse, a recent news report of 27th November, 2019 in Punch Newspapers has shown that some unscrupulous security officers are also now engaging directly in the business of kidnapping for ransom. This development is extremely dangerous and very worrisome. Again, it should be noted that Christmas and New Year seasons have consistently over the years witnessed increase in kidnapping rates.

The foregoing without doubts, underscores the crucial need for a sustained coordinated prayer action to deal with this evil in the land.

The kingdom of darkness is sustained by darkness and wickedness. As watchmen and Sureties for the nation, it is our responsibility to ceaselessly pray against all the deeds of the wicked. (PSALM 141:5)

 

DETAILS OF THE PRAYER ACTION

  • This prayer action commences on Saturday the 7th of December, 2019 to end on Friday the 24th January, 2020.
  • All INTERCESSORS are to hold a weekly corporate overnight prayers (11:00pm – 3:00am) as long as the Project lasts.
  • A daily prophetic action is encouraged in each home using the broom to sweep away all kidnappers and ritual killers in Nigeria. ISAIAH 14:22-23.
  • There shall be weekly prophetic patrols to anoint the land and to raise altars of vengeance & judgment against the evil of kidnapping. This should be done corporately at the level of each House of Prayer. Each patrol team should anoint themselves and break bread before the outings.
  • Each House of Prayer is expected to complete not less than 7 prophetic patrols during the period of the Prayer Action.
  • By the spiritual law of contact, the earth can be activated through prophetic words to become an agent of judgment against the enemies of God. In course of the Prophetic Patrol, get a token of the sand of the earth and decree an end to the crisis of kidnapping in Nigeria. Let the earth of Nigeria leave the company of kidnappers no survivors. JEREMIAH 22:29

 

KEY DAILY DECLARATION

PSALM 68:1-3

1 Let God arise,

Let His enemies be scattered;

Let those also who hate Him flee before Him.

2 As smoke is driven away,

So drive them away;

As wax melts before the fire,

So let the wicked perish at the presence of God.

3 But let the righteous be glad;

Let them rejoice before God;

Yes, let them rejoice exceedingly.

NKJV

 

  • All are expected to fast on their day of prophetic patrol.

 

CONCLUSION

May we receive strength to effectively deploy our priesthood in all our locations, so that God’s judgment will be sustained against the spirit of rebellion that drives this wickedness of kidnapping in the land.

Kindly note that this assignment is part of our on-going 9 Months Youth Project. I urge all Coordinators at all levels to closely supervise the prayer assignment and send their reports accordingly.

Your brother,

National Coordinator

  • Raise a prayer of lamentation to God concerning the atrocities perpetrated by kidnappers in the land. They have penetrated virtually every part of the nation. They rape, sodomize, have no respect for age. They kill any how, whether young, little or old. They distress people and afflict them with such wounds in the soul that will last a lifetime.
