Pray for the Nation ~ Inoi Mo Te Motu
(Intercessors for New Zealand)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Greetings ... and Welcome to
Pray for the Nation!
Some verses in the Bible which are a major part of prayer, and inspiration to pray, are:
"Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people"
Proverbs 14:34
"If My people, who are called by My name, humble themselves, pray, seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from Heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land"
2 Chronicles 7:14
"Will You not revive us again, so that Your people may rejoice in You"
Psalm 85:6
So please 'PRAY FOR THE NATION ' ... we need it!!
God bless you all,
Brian Caughley (coordinator)
Pray for the Nation was started by Brian Caughley in January 1972, after receiving a word from God to call Christians to "Pray for the Nation". After a few years, when other similar Intercessors organisations started in a number of other countries, it also became known as Intercessors for New Zealand -- IFNZ.
Pray for the Nation specifically aims to encourage prayer, and present Bible teaching, which exhorts Christians to pray regularly and specifically for their nation – for Revival and Evangelism, the Church, the Government, and the Nation.
The vision is based, in part, on the following Scriptures:
2 Chronicles 7:14 Proverbs 14:34 Jeremiah 29:7 1 Timothy 2:1-4
The AIMS of Pray for the Nation are:
- To glorify God by uniting Christians throughout the nation in praying regularly and specifically for our nation, the government, and the Church; for revival and evangelism.
- To encourage them to continue to pray for revival until God sends such a revival.
- To instruct in the ministry of intercession, so that Christians will be more effective in intercessory prayer.
- To share with Christians specific prayer suggestions related to these aims, so that they can pray more intelligently and specifically.
