Healing our land requires unity among God’s people - Part1


PRAY FOR HAITI DAY 37

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.



Healing our land requires unity among God’s people Part1

As we are approaching the final days of our 40 days of prayer for Haiti, we must make an effort to unify ourselves after these 40 days to help lift Haiti out of its desperate situation. Unity is not uniformity. Uniformity means we become the same whereas in unity we remain as individuals while we work together as one. We must live up to our motto "L'Union fait la force" Which means: '' Unity makes strength" Though we have struggled in the past to maintain unity, we must not give up trying to achieve it. Eph 4:3 Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace. We have to make an effort. The January 12, 2010 has given the church a reason to make an effort to unite and make a difference. We have united in prayer for 40 days let us unite in work for 40 years (one generation) and get our country on its feet.

Many congregations will gather around the world on January 12, 2011 to celebrate the Lord Jesus Christ and pray for Haiti. More than one million in Port-au-Prince, Cap-Haitian, Thomassin, Petion-Ville, Jacmel and others. In the Diaspora, Canada, Boston, Florida, Arizona, Nevada, Bahamas, the Seven day Adventist, The Church of God, The Church of God in Christ, The Church of Prophesy and many independent congregations throughout USA and Canada will gather to remember the tragedy that occurred in our beloved Haiti on January 12, 2010 and seek the Lord’s guidance. 1Peter 3:8 Finally, all of you, have unity of mind, sympathy, brotherly love, a tender heart, and a humble mind.

PRAY: Ask the Lord to help the Church develop a passion to work together.

ACT: Encourage your Church to partner with another Church that is actively working to rebuild Haiti.
