FRIDAY PRAY AND FAST - 21 JUNE 2013

Dear Friends, It is time for us to really intercede yet again. We don’t say that in a tone of someone who has given up. Rather we say that with absolute confidence. We serve a mighty God, the only God who answers prayer. His son Jesus has given us favour to step into the throne-room – the very presence of God and we have access to Him. He hears us and our petitions and our requests because He loves us and whats that which is best for His children!! Please consider the following requests below: PLEASE GIVE THANKS AND PRAISE TO GOD! Yet again, our God has gotten us the victory! Here are a few highlights – Please thank & praise God with us for these victories:
