Dear Friends and Colleagues in the Faith
PRAY FOR HAITI - 40 DAYS OF PRAYER - DAY 40 PRAISE THE LORD!
Eph 3:20-21 Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, 21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.
It has been a 40 days journey. In those forty days we prayed through hurricanes, Cholera outbreak and an election. I want to thank God for all of you who supported us. We know that it was not in vain. We know that in the very near future we will be hearing news that will encourage our hearts. Today during our worship service we took some time out to pray for Haiti, sang the Haitian Christian National Anthem and commit all of our work to the Lord. Then we erupted in spontaneous praise unto the Lord because He is good and His mercies endures for ever.
The people were out voting today. Not much violence has been reported “Praise the Lord” however it’s not over yet. There were reports of fraud nonetheless. A member of our church remembered 23 years ago during the elections how she was shot in the chest and then was kidnapped. After pleading with her captors saying “I have daughters that need me,” they set her free. She will never forget Election Day in Haiti. Just as she will never forget Election Day in Haiti, let us not forget the Haitians in Haiti.
We’ve prayed, we fasted we made comments and now we are committing all of our efforts unto Him who is able to take them and “do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think,” We commit it all to Him and whatever He does with it we will be sure to give Him the Glory Praise and Honor that He so deserves. I want to thank everybody who participated in this prayer movement. May God’s blessings be upon all of our friends who supported us in prayer. 21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.
