Global Prayer Initiative of Haitian Churches

PRAY FOR HAITI DAILY DEVOTION DAY 23
GLOBAL PRAYER INITIATIVE OF HAITIAN CHURCHES
Theme Verse 2 Chronicles 7:14
if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

Today, as we celebrate the birth of our Lord and savior Jesus Christ and also pray for the children in Haiti, we realize that they have something in common. The baby Jesus and the children in Haiti needed someone to protect them and care them because of the dangers that threatened their lives. When they had gone, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream. “Get up,” he said, “take the child and his mother and escape to Egypt. Stay there until I tell you, for Herod is going to search for the child to kill him.” Matthew 2:13 Jesus’ life was threatened and needed protection from Herod. There are still many with the spirit of Herod in Haiti who wants to harm our children. It is our responsibility to pray and act on their behalf. There are several good organizations who are in Haiti helping to provide and protect our children I invite you to check out www.restorehaiti.com. Restore Haiti is partnered with Restoration Ministries, a local church in Jacmel, Haiti to provide a child sponsorship program. This program has grown to provide over 120 children per day with a hot meal and education that includes tuition, school uniforms and books. The number of sponsored children is increasing daily as more sponsors come on board. Visit their website and see what else they are doing.
PRAY: Ask the Lord to raise up people who will help protect, provide and guide and children in Haiti.
ACT: Support individuals and organizations such as “Restore Haiti” who will provide a safe haven for our children in Haiti.
