1. Egypt:
Canada is called to bring healing to the nations, so in prayer we must be listening for what God wants us to contend for globally. Clearly this is a time to pray for Egypt, a nation with glorious promises, and a history of dramatic signs and wonders. God loves Egypt! Pray for harvest, and a tremendous advancing of the Kingdom of God through these days of upheaval. Pray for surrounding Arab countries that are also influenced by similar spiritual forces and are shaking at this time. 

2. Prophetic: There is a sense across the nation that a new wave of the prophetic is coming, with a clear, strong, flow and at a higher level than we have experienced in the past. Thank God for what He has released and ask for more!  
 
3. Next Generation: The most frequent theme in prayer across the nation right now is for the next generation. Pray for those that are rising up right now, and who are carrying a new sound. Pray protection, blessing, favour, anointing, provision for these ones that are running like a young David into the battle.  
 
4. First People: The Lord is also focusing prayer on Canada's First Peoples, reminding the nation that the Forgiven Summit was only the beginning of a deep healing and restoration that He desires to release. Pray for the next steps in this journey to be walked out and pray for the strategic leaders that God has raised up to facilitate healing, justice and restoration.

5. Fear of the Lord: Contend in prayer for the Fear of the Lord to mark the Church of Canada. Let us stand together in intercession and cry out to  welcome the Spirit of the Fear of the Lord (Isa 11: 2) and that it would impact every aspect of our walk and life. 

6. Worship: In this "year of the Lion", there is already a strong focus on worship and extended times of worship to release breakthrough. Pray for this anointing to continue to grow, and for the Church of Canada to find a new level of hunger rising to passionately worship Jesus. Pray for worship teams and worship leaders in our local congregations to "go to the next level" as they lead the Church into the Throne room.

1. Year of the Lion:
Pray that we would know the power and authority of the Lion of the Tribe of Judah this year to do great exploits for Him. Contend for the Church to step into boldness and courage, where we have been intimidated or fearful in the past.
 
2. Consecration:
This is definitely a time of fasting and seeking the Lord for greater consecration. So many are hearing the call to fast at this time and are allowing the Lord to go deeper than ever before in dealing with our hearts. Pray that this consecration process will yield a tremendous growth in character, a breaking off of strongholds of sin, and the fruit of holiness in 2011. Pray that through this time of fasting we would become much sharper in the spirit.
 
3. Fruitfulness:
Many are hearing that 2011 is a year of great fruitfulness. Pray for every believer to increase in their fruitfulness as branches closely connected with the vine. Pray for those that have yielded 30 fold, to increase in fruitfulness and yield 100 fold. Pray for both the fruit of the Spirit and Kingdom fruit to abound in our lives.
 
4. Repent, the Kingdom of God is at hand:
Pray that the Body of Christ will be quick to embrace repentance wherever it is needed so that we can move in to more and more of His kingdom, and the spirit of revival. Repentance opens a door for the Kingdom! Pray that the convicting power of the Spirit would be welcomed as God works in our hearts.
 
5. Government:
Continue to pray for our government as we finish the 120 day prayer mandate in mid-February. Contend that if the Lord desires an election this spring it will be exactly in God's timing, and that he would assemble every candidate that he desires to have run for office. Pray that the righteous would walk in God's favour like never before in the government of Canada!
