EASTER PRAYER & FASTING

MALAYSIA DAY 10-DAY PRAYER & FASTING

We are living in challenging times and people are trying to make sense of their lives. In the midst of a pandemic, our nation has to grapple with political crisis, economic meltdown, and a devastating daily rise of the COVID-19. While many things are beyond our control, let us remember that God fights our battles. He is the one who constantly shields, protects and strengthens us. As a church, we need to rise up and be a united militant prayer warrior; fight against dark spiritual powers and strongholds in our nation. Our confidence is that God is our Chief Commander who fights for us. God alone is greater than all the challenges we face in this world. Our part is to believe that “The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still.” – Exodus 14:14

Over the next 10 days, join us for a season of prayer and fasting towards Malaysia Day. Let the Holy Spirit assure us that “GOD FIGHTS OUR BATTLES”.
