by NECF Malaysia 40-Day Fast & Prayer
We may ask, "What is the spiritual state of our nation and why is there so much internal strife in our homes, churches and among people groups in our nation?" The reasons are simple: we have broken the two commandments - loving God and loving one another. All broken relationships are the result of violating these commandments. If we desire to see revival, harmony, unity and order in our nation, we need to address the root issue of "honouring God and honouring one another!" We need to deal with our disobedience, negative attitudes and pride so that all generations, families, churches and nation will be healed, restoring God's order to transform this nation.
Reflection: Mal 2:2-6, Matt 19:19, Pro 15:33. In what ways have I dishonoured God, my parents, neighbours, friends and the authorities. For example, have I honoured God in my giving? Confess and stand in identification repentance on behalf of the church and nation for dishonouring Him by our lives and attitude.
"Faithful and uniform obedience to this royal law throughout the churches of Christ would be of itself an evangelistic power, an aggressive spiritual energy far transcending all the revival meetings ever held." D. Jackson
Prayer Points
■ Honour and respect to be restored in all relationships beginning with our relationship with God, parents and children, husbands and wives, the elderly and the youths, employers and employees, church leaders and members, government officials and the public.
■ Humility to initiate forgiveness in all broken relationships. Believers to live God-honouring lives in all aspects - thoughts, actions and words - and to be His salt and light.
■ Body of Christ to honour God in their substance, that resources will not be lacking in community projects that reach out to the lost, poor and helpless in all states.
