O GOD, LET YOUR GLORY SHINE FORTH C

PRAYER CONT’D

• We present every home represented in the ministry before you and ask you, O God, that you make amends. Lord, you know all things; nothing is hidden from you. We ask you, O God, in the powerful name of Jesus Christ that our men will be men indeed.
• Deliver your people from pursuing vanity and missing God in the name of Jesus.
• Raise true worshippers, those who worship you in spirit and in truth in every home and let your name be magnified as you draw your people closer to you in the name of Jesus.
• Deliver your people from distraction in the name of Jesus. Deliver your people from pursuing idols, deliver your people from pursuing vanity and missing you the only true God.
• Deliver your people, O God, from dislocation in the name of Jesus. 
• Compel every man that has derailed to return and be established in the way (Jesus Christ is the way) in the name of Jesus. Enable them to give purposeful leadership to their families in the name of Jesus Christ.

The most important thing a man should give to his family is not money, no, the most important thing a man should give is direction, leadership – purposeful spiritual leadership. It is because this is not well done in the home that it is not well done in the Church as well as the nation. God asked, “Adam, where art thou?” We have a lot of Adams around today. If we must get it right, it must start from the home. We must get it right from the foundation. If the foundation be destroyed what can the righteous do? (Psalm 11:3).

May we never forget that the first institution that God established was the marriage institution. Marriage was established even before the Church. Every Church starts from the garden of the heart. Adam missed it in the garden of his heart and that was where the fall started. Adam fell because his heart was not tuned to the frequency of God. If you must get it right, it must start from the heart. What do you really love more? What are you chasing? What is your motivation? What is the spirit behind what is driving you? That is what is going to determine where you end.

Everyone will eventually end up where their heart is. That is why we must be very careful of what we entertain in the garden of our heart. Ensure that your heart is clean, pure and that the blood of Jesus is active in the garden of your heart so that your heart will pant after God just as the dear pants after the water brooks. Thereafter, every other thing you do will fall in line. If you miss it in the garden of the heart, you cannot get it right in worship.

If you miss it in worship, everything you do will become mechanical and end up as wood, hay, stubble. Even if you build a million cathedrals, God will not accept them. This is because he weighs the intent of the heart and he ascribes to our work, silver, gold or precious stones. These are the things that will stand. Anything that is not built on these will crumble at the fiery test that everyone’s work will pass through. Everybody’s work must be tested. God is a spirit. Those who worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth (John 4:24). That is the only acceptable worship.

Pray

• Lord, in the mighty name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, let your glory shine forth in every home connected to this ministry. Let your glory shine forth in my home. Let your glory shine forth in every home represented in your Church in this nation.
• Let your glory shine forth in every home in this nation. Let your glory be revealed. Let your name be magnified.
• Grant, O God that your people will become true worshippers. 
• Help everyone in the nation to throw away the idols in their hearts and enthrone you the only true and living God that your people may worship you in spirit and in truth.
