40 Days of Prayer

40 Days of Prayer - Day 4

Day 4 – Model of Hands at Work

“Now the God of patience and consolation grant you to be like-minded one toward another according to Christ Jesus.” – Romans 15:5

From the beginning, the model of Hands at Work has been to empower the church to take ownership in their communities as they care for the most vulnerable. Across Hands at Work, there are different roles that exist to support volunteer Care Workers. From the Regional Support Team to the Finance Team, each works together to support the most vulnerable children. Ask God to bring continued unity, growth, honesty and accountability to every layer within Hands at Work, and for Christ to continually remain the foundation of the Hands at Work model.

40 Days of Prayer - Day 3

Day 3 – Children Yet to Be Identified

‘Then the people brought their little children to Jesus so he could put his hands on them and pray for them. His followers told them to stop, but Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me. Don’t stop them, because the kingdom of heaven belongs to people who are like these children.’ – Matthew 19:13-14

Across Africa there are thousands of vulnerable children not yet cared for. Pray for these children, who on a regular basis are exposed variously to hunger, abuse, war, injustice, persecution and corruption. Pray that they will experience God’s peace, comfort and healing in their brokenness and that God will provide for their physical, emotional and spiritual needs.

Day 2 - Children across Africa

‘Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from him. Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are children born in one’s youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them. They will not be put to shame when they contend with their opponents in court.’ – Psalm 127:3-5

Praise God for 7500 of the most vulnerable children, including Safta, that Hands at Work is serving across eight different countries in Africa. Pray for each child to know the unconditional love of their Heavenly Father through the love that they receive from their local Care Workers. Ask God to fill each child with a sense of belonging and hope for their future.

40 Days of Prayer - Easter Sunday

Day 40 - EASTER SUNDAY

He who is the faithful witness to all these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon!” Amen! Come, Lord Jesus! – Revelations 22:20

He Is Risen

Arising from the dead, Jesus has shown us that there is no wound too deep, no scar too unbearable that He cannot heal. As we await His triumphant return, He is still ‘binding up the broken-hearted, proclaiming freedom for the captives and releasing from darkness the prisoners’.

40 Days of Prayer - Holy Saturday

HOLY SATURDAY

Today, we pause to anticipate the coming of Easter Sunday and the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

But he was pierced for our rebellion, crushed for our sins. He was beaten so we could be whole. He was whipped so we could be healed. All of us, like sheep, have strayed away. We have left God’s paths to follow our own. Yet the Lord laid on him the sins of us all. - Isaiah 53:5-6
