December 2016

• Turning Tide - Many are discerning that the spiritual tide has turned. This pertains to growing unity in the Church and a change in the spiritual climate, creating extraordinary new possibilities. Pray that the Church in Canada will now boldly advance the gospel with faith and zeal into areas that have been strongholds of darkness. Continue to pray for unity to replace division, for gathering to replace scattering.     
• First Peoples - Intercede for God to powerfully raise up the Christian First Peoples to minister with grace and the power of the gospel to their communities. Pray for an outpouring of the Spirit bringing healing, signs, and wonders to communities where there is deep need. 
• Universities - Contend for a complete change in the spiritual climate on university campuses so that Jesus becomes sought out instead of dismissed as irrelevant or worse. Pray for light to come into darkness and need at every level. Cry out for a new Jesus movement to break out and become unstoppable. Join the special focus on universities Jan 23-27.  
• Christmas - Ask the Lord for Christmas to be a time of renewing of first love for the Church, and restoration of prodigals. Pray for the lonely and those in financial need. Cry out for the revelation of Jesus to draw many to His light. 
• Truth - Seek the Lord for Church to stand on the truth of scripture rather than being swept along by the lies of the spirit of the world or the enemy. Pray for an illumination of biblical truth that does the work of transformation in our hearts. Contend that the Church will look more and more like Jesus and less and less like the world.
