Islam pursues political, societal, and top-down power structures. Christianity teaches bottom-up servant leadership (Luke 22:25-27). Pray for Nashville to be transformed as Christians model Christian leadership principles and reject worldly power structures.
Each of us who comes to Christ must repent of and renounce every pact, promise, or identity we held before faith in Christ. Join us in praying for our brothers and sisters in Christ from a Muslim background as they repent of their former identity as Muslims. This prayer is inspired by chapter 7 and 8 of Liberty to the Captives by Mark Durie
We have authority in Christ to speak the truth in love, with boldness. “Now Lord consider their threats and enable your servants to speak your word with great boldness” (Acts 4:29).
Pray for those following Jesus in Nashville to speak about Christ with boldness.
“He defends the cause of the fatherless and the widow, and he loves the foreigner residing among you, giving them food and clothing…” (Deut 10:18).
Lord, we declare on behalf of the refugees from Nashville: Defend their cause; you care about their plight; you respond to their cries for justice; and you reach down from heaven to act. You are the God of the refugee, a safe haven, a strong tower. And you stand with those whose backs are up against the wall.
Pray that the Bible will be translated into the heart language of every people in Nashville. Pray for the illiterate to have access to an audio version.
Intercede on behalf of Christ’s followers in Nashville, that their testimony about Jesus would be confirmed by God’s power working through miraculous signs and wonders.
Lord, we need your power, not just our words! We need your living power–the same power that conquered the grave and raised Christ Jesus from the dead; the same power that delivered God’s people out from the clutches of Pharaoh’s brick-laying, back-breaking empire; the same power that created all that we see and all that we don’t!
Holy Spirit of God, when your people pray, come in power.
When they preach the word, come in power.
When they face opposition, come in power.
When they feel weak, come in power.
When they stand before crowds, come in power.
When they weep with the lonely, come in power.
When they fast, come in power.
When they live and love, surround them at all times by your confirming, world-changing power.
PRAISE
“May all kings fall down before him, all [Nashville] nations serve him!” (Psalm 72:11)
KINGDOM COME
“I tell you, many will come from east and west and recline at table with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven.” (Matthew 8:11)
We praise you, Lord, because you’ve called all nations to your table. We pray that many from the east, west, north, and south corners of Nashville would join your Kingdom this month.
PRAY THE BOOK OF ACTS
“So I sent for you at once, and you have been kind enough to come. Now therefore we are all here in the presence of God to hear all that you have been commanded by the Lord.” (Acts 10:33) Father, please stir many hearts of heads of households in Nashville, like Cornelius, to gather their family to hear the message of the Good News of Jesus.
PRAY THE HALL OF FAITH
“Therefore from one man, and him as good as dead, were born descendents as many as the stars of heaven and as many as the innumerable grains of sand by the seashore.” (Hebrews 11:12) Lord, you promised Abraham he would be the father of many nations. We ask for breakthrough among the Unengaged, Unreached People Groups in Nashville. May they be included in this promise in our generation.
