Encouragement: "I say to you that likewise there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over 99 just persons who need no repentance..." Luke 15:7

Let us praise and thank the Lord:

Let us rejoice over the many who came to know Jesus as their Lord and Saviour through the Ignite EC Mighty Men's Conference from 8-10th March 2019 on the Farm 'Mooi Uitsig"; Jeffrey's Bay! Luke 15:7
Praise God for all the people that attended the EC MMC gathering. Continue to pray for each one: that God will minister to them and encourage them; especially pray for those that made first time commitments to the Lord; and for others that returned to the Lord - after a time of being spiritually lukewarm and backslidden. Pray for families to be reconciled and for the fruit of Ignite be felt throughout SA!

As we pray for NMB and South Africa, we pray for:
Pray for an Awakening in the Church and Revival in the hearts of every Christian in NMB & SA; for rivers of living water to flow from the innermost being of every child of God! John 7: 37- 39; Romans 12: 1-3
God's protection over His Church; and for nothing to hinder the freedom of our faith; for congregations to align themselves with God's plans and purposes. Matthew 16:18
The success of the Nehemiah Vision (Nehemiah 2: 17); and for Christians to diligently keep their commitment to 'prayer walk' the suburban block - where they live - and to pray for their neighbours. Isaiah 62: 6
The upcoming National Elections: Pray for free & fair elections; for a record number of people to go to the polls on the 8 May 2019; for people to vote responsibly, with integrity, knowledge, understanding and according to their consciences. Proverbs 14: 34; Proverbs 11: 11
Political Leaders in South Africa: (National; Provincial; and Local): to have a great desire for: peace and the lack of violence, the economic growth of our country; to help the underprivileged; to upgrade the education and health sectors; and to have a righteous Government and a sound Justice System 1Tim. 2: 1-6
Every form of corruption to be uncovered and rooted out of our Government and Business Sectors. Luke 12:2

Remember the promise:
... pray to the Lord for the city because if it prospers, you will prosper. Jeremiah 29:7
