    40 Days Week 6.Cdr

    PRAYER GUIDE 6TH WEEK WELCOME TO WITH PASTOR MENSA OTABIL very year, I have the privilege of leading ICGC churches and God’s people in Ghana and across the world to Eearnestly seek the face of God and trust Him to draw near to us, as we draw near to Him. This period of consecration, prayer and fasting has come to be known as “40 Days of Power”. Every year’s experience is unique, but one thing has been common to this solemn period each year. That is the level of commitment I see from individuals, families, churches and groups to devote time and effort to fully engage with the process. It is heart-warming to hear of the many testimonies that continually affirm the faithfulness of God and the surety of His word. From Thursday 25th June to Monday 3rd August 2020, we will embark on this year’s spiritual journey as we fast and pray for our nation, for global missions, for nations and their presidents across the world, and also for our personal needs, divine guidance and divine protection. This Prayer Guide affords us the opportunity to pray together in the same direction. Scripture affirms the benefit of this practice, that there is power in praying with agreement with others. Over the past few months the world has experienced very trying times characterized by uncertainty and disruptions at various levels. Within this period, I started a daily broadcast called Word to Go to bring strength and encouragement from God’s word to help us all weather the storms together.
