Psalm 111

I will give thanks to the LORD with my whole heart,
in the company of the upright, in the congregation.
Great are the works of the LORD,
studied by all who delight in them.
Full of splendor and majesty is his work,
and his righteousness endures forever.
He has caused his wondrous works to be remembered;
the LORD is gracious and merciful.
He provides food for those who fear him;
he remembers his covenant forever.
He has shown his people the power of his works,
in giving them the inheritance of the nations.
The works of his hands are faithful and just;
all his precepts are trustworthy;
they are established forever and ever,
to be performed with faithfulness and uprightness.
He sent redemption to his people;
he has commanded his covenant forever.
Holy and awesome is his name!
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom;
all those who practice it have a good understanding.
His praise endures forever!

 


 

We would repent of favoritism 

Read: James 2: 1-8

My brothers, show no partiality as you hold the faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory.  James 2: 1

Ways To Pray:

  • We would repent where we have chosen partiality towards others based on wealth, status, age, etc.
  • We would see where we have harmed someone by showing favoritism and repent and ask for forgiveness.
  • We would seek out to serve others that are in need, and not just those who could give us something back in return.
  • We would see ourselves as the poor God has chosen, the foolish and weak that he sought after, and would humble ourselves.

 

 


 

Democratic Republic of Congo

Religion & Geography

Largest Religion: Christian, 92.2 %
% Evangelical: 18.7 %
Population:    105,625,114
Continent:    Africa


The Democratic Republic of Congo is a failed state by any measure of the term. The lands under this name have no centralized government, no connectedness between the vast and far-flung regions, almost no functioning infrastructure and no single language or culture to unite its many diverse peoples. More than five million people have lost their lives through war, violence, starvation and the virtual collapse of the health system.

The powerful spiritual evil that influences much of this land shows itself in deeper ways than wars, killings, greed, and corruption. Wicked men committed widespread rape, unspeakable brutality, cannibalism, and witchcraft against adults and children. The DRC is the worst country in the world regarding sexual violence against women. How could these horrors spread throughout a land with over 90% who profess Christianity? This moves our hearts, and calls us to spiritual warfare. Cry out for God to deliver this land, and to bind the spirits that have such power over suffering people.
