Pray for
Macedonia
Week of July 2-8,2012
Acts 2: 38- 40 (NKJV) Peter replied, “Repent
and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the
forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
The promise is for you and your children and
for all who are far off —for all whom the Lord our God will call.”
With many other words he warned them; and he
pleaded with them, “Save yourselves from this corrupt generation.”
1)
I read these verses and knew I needed to pray for
evangelist to be sent and raised up in Macedonia. Let us pray to the Lord for
the ministry of evangelism.
2)
Pray for evangelism to not merely be taught in the
Macedonian churches but that it would be acted upon. Street evangelism, mass
evangelism, radio evangelism, internet evangelism, neighbor to neighbor, family
to family may the Good News be proclaimed.
3)
May the Lord expose the sin of this “corrupt generation”
and call many Macedonians unto salvation.
Luke 8: 11-15
“Now the parable is this: The seed is the
word of God. Those by the wayside are the
ones who hear; then the devil comes and takes away the word out of their
hearts, lest they should believe and be saved. But the ones on the rock are those who, when they hear,
receive the word with joy; and these have no root, who believe for a while and
in time of temptation fall away. Now the ones that fell among thorns are those who,
when they have heard, go out and are choked with cares, riches, and pleasures
of life, and bring no fruit to maturity. But the ones that fell on the good ground are
those who, having heard the word with a noble and good heart, keep it and bear fruit with patience.
4)
As the Good News goes forth and many are saved, may
there be great celebrations when they are baptized.
5)
Lord, we ask that You protect the seeds. I can’t help
but believe that as we fervently pray for the mission field, God causes the
ground to be “good ground”.
6)
Lord, You know men’s hearts and how they will receive.
May the Macedonian Christians enjoy sowing the seeds and watch as the Lord
brings increase.
7)
Holy Spirit, we cry out for Your fire to come and dwell
in Your people in Macedonia. Some say Macedonia is the heart of the Balkans,
may the heart catch on fire for Jesus.
In my research I am finding there
are investments coming into Macedonia because they have created sound economic policies.
The culture is modernizing.
8)
Modernization can have positive and negative effect. Lord, we ask for Your protection of Macedonia.
Lord, draw well-intended investors. Let us pray for Christian based businesses
to invest.
9)
It is believed that the gray-market business in
Macedonia is 40% of the economy, which can breed corruption. Lord, we pray for the
exposure of those involved in dishonest trade.
10) With
a rate of 29% unemployment, let us pray for the Christians in Macedonia to be
blessed with jobs.
11) May
the Christians bring their gifting to the market place. Lord, inspire them with
inventions and successful methods of commerce.
12) We
pray also for Christians in the Macedonian government. Lord, open doors of
influence.
