PASTORAL LETTER ON PRAYER AND FASTING SESSION

Welcome to the 2nd Half of the year, From 1st to 14th July all the over 500 congregations of Deliverance Church Uganda ,Projects and Partners will be doing a corporate time of Fasting and Prayer which runs from 6 am to 6 pm for the 14 days. Year’s Focus: ENLARGE, LENGTHEN AND STRENGTHEN-ISAIAH 54:2

we as a ministry shall not be deterred by any circumstance, be it COVID-19, but we will go on with what Lord led us to do. I am therefore calling upon you to actively join in this season of prayer.

Greetings in Jesus name.

I give glory and honor to God who has kept us safe during these tough and perilous times of COVID-19 and its attendant challenges of lock-down, uncertainty, fear, hunger, anger, redundancy and domestic violence. Whatever your present circumstances let us give thanks to God for sparing our lives this far.

The Word of God commands us always to pray and not faint- Luke 18:1-6, and to pray without ceasing- 1 Thessalonians 5:17. Basing on the above scripture, we as a ministry shall not be deterred by any circumstance, be it COVID-19, but we will go on with what Lord led us to do. I am therefore calling upon you to actively join in this season of prayer.

Let us anchor our prayers in the Word of God.

  • Psalm 33:6 says ‘By the Word of the Lord the heavens were made, their starry host by the breath of His mouth’.
  • God will only answer when we pray in line with His Word.
    1. Elijah, a man like us prayed and there was no rain for three and a half years;
    2. then he prayed and it rained all because he stood on God’s word- James 5:17-18; Deut. 11:16-17; 1 Kings 8:35-36.

Some things can be sorted by individual prayers; others go when we pray together as the body of Christ- as the case in Acts 12:1-24.

We shall be fasting from 6 am to 6 pm every day from 1st to 14th July. You are encouraged to spend some time in prayer, reading and meditating on the Word early in the morning, at lunch time and in the evening before breaking the fast. When the Lord puts some impressions on your heart that are beneficial to the entire ministry, kindly share them with us at the TEAM Secretariat.

It is my sincere prayer that the Lord will refresh your spirit and re-energize you and indeed the entire ministry in a special way during this season as Isaiah 40:31 says.

In Him,

Pastor Edward Kiwanuka – General Overseer Deliverance Church Uganda.
