NSCEA: Prayer For Ukraine And Russia -By Funmilayo Adesanya-Davies
We pray that Ukrainians ultimately would hope not in governments, elections or diplomacy, but in Jesus Christ our Saviour, while Russia will not depend o their might but your instructions.
Nigerian Supreme Council for Ecclesiastical Affairs (NSCEA) has rolled out prayer points for Ukraine and Russia please, pray always.
Twelve PRAYERS to pray during this crisis in Ukraine and Russia
Dear Heavenly Father, in the mighty, precious and mercifully name of our Lord Jesus Christ:
1. We ask You our Almighty God to redeem this situation by drawing many people to Yourself. May Ukrainians and Russians discover that Jesus Christ the Saviour is the only true source of peace, safety, comfort, truth and freedom in times as this.
2. We pray that Ukrainians ultimately would hope not in governments, elections or diplomacy, but in Jesus Christ our Saviour, while Russia will not depend o their might but your instructions.
3. We ask You the Almighty God to deliver Ukraine and Russia from evil. May You have mercy and heal this land. May You give Ukraine and Russia peace and the chance to develop as a nation that values truth, justice and freedom, all rooted in the goodness of God.
4. We pray for a culture in which political disagreements don’t lead to hatred or violence in these two lands ultimtely.
5. We pray that the conflict between Ukraine and Russia will not spill over into personal conflict within families, especially when family members live on opposite sides of the border and are influenced by different sides of the “information war.” We pray for unity and love for one another that supersedes the problems between the two countries.
6. We ask you our Almighty God to bless soldiers’ wives and children with peace and safety while their husbands and fathers are gone. Keep their husband in safety at the war front oh Lord.
7. We pray that the conflict between Ukraine and Russia will not spill over into conflict all over our world, and major wars especially with NATO and the rest countries taking sides. We pray for the various world leaders involved in diplomacy over Ukraine and Russia. Lead and direct them aright in their decisions oh Mighty God.
8. We pray that the evangelical Church will remain united, even as it faces difficult questions, such as how involved believers ought to be in politics or in armed conflict.
9. In the past few years, the Ukrainian evangelical Church has become much more passionate about sending its own cross-cultural workers to reach the lost. We pray that this conflict will not dissuade Ukrainians from taking the gospel message to Russia and to other lands.
10. We pray for Christians in the military. This is a challenging time; We ask you our Almighty God to guide them as their faith is being tested in new ways. We pray for mighty revival in the two countries by Your special grace oh God.
11. Fears stemming from the conflict come up frequently in conversation. We ask you our Almighty God that missionaries and other believers will have many opportunities to explain to their neighbors and friends the reason for the hope within them, even in this time of trial.
12. We pray in the Spirit by the power of the Holy Ghost and thank you Lord God, and we pray with thanksgiving for Ukraine and Russia in our Lord Jesus Christ precious name, amen and AMEN.
PLEASE KEEP PRAYING IN THE SPIRIT AND FAST AS MUCH AS YOU CAN – NSCEA.
