Rader Calls World to Prayer

In response to the General’s call to prayer, an International Day of Prayer linking Salvationists in every territory and command will take place on Sunday May 26, 1996.

I have never been more persuaded than now of the potential power of faith focused on agreed objectives in prayer. We have at our disposal a global prayer partnership. “If two of you agree on earth about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by my Father in heaven.” (Matthew 18:19) What a staggering thought! Hundreds of thousands of Salvationists in more than 100 lands will join together on this day in lifting these petitions to the Throne of Grace, Mercy and Power. And God says he will act. It is to be believed.

By prayer, every Salvationist can touch the world-literally, powerfully. And we can touch one another.

 

“There is a scene where spirits blend
And friend holds fellowship with friend;
Though sundered far, by faith they meet
Around one common mercy seat.”

Prayer-united, agreed, believing together for God to act on behalf of His people, this is Salvation Army internationalism at its best. It is the most meaningful possible “partnership in mission.” Let every Salvationist around the world-from the newest recruit to the most senior soldier-join in this global concert of prayer. God will hear and answer His people at prayer. We will look to see what breakthroughs result.

God bless you!

Sincerely,

GENERAL

 

A World-Wide Prayer List Day of Prayer

International Prayer Requests From Africa

Congo: Pray for the reinforcement of the officers and soldiers of the territory in personal holiness, evangelical fervor and holy confidence in the Lord to meet the spiritual hunger of the nation; East Africa: The 75th Anniversary celebrations of The Salvation Army in East Africa which will be led by General Paul Rader in October 1996; Ghana and Liberia: The expansion of Salvation Army operations in the Northern and Western Regions of Ghana, where new corps have already been opened; Nigeria: Please pray that each soldier may win another person for Christ and disciple that person; Southern Africa: The high level of political and criminally motivated violence in South Africa gives cause for concern. Pray for wisdom for national leaders, courage for church leaders to participate in a mission of reconciliation, and safety and security for all people, including Salvationists; Zaire and Angola: Zaire is experiencing the arrival of many deviant cults and sects. They are making inroads in the lives of many people. We ask for prayer that our young Salvationists will be sufficiently strong in their faith to overcome these temptations; Zambia and Malawi: In connection with the AIDS disease, please pray for grieving families, for children who are left as orphans, for future national leadership and for sexual purity within the ranks of The Salvation Army; Zimbabwe: Please pray for the end of the drought in Zimbabwe and the sending of sufficient rains for the people’s needs.

From the South Pacific and East Asia

Japan: The young people of Japan. They face many temptations in this alien environment for Christianity. We need many of them to dedicate their lives for full time service as officers; Australia Southern: For a renewed emphasis on holiness living and teaching. The unhelpful influence of the excesses of the “Toronto Blessing” and the more overt charismatic expressions are diverting people’s attention away from the Army’s emphasis on holiness as a way of Christian life; Singapore/Malaysia and Myanmar: Eight corps plants being established across the command; Indonesia: Commencement of Army’s work in Iran Jaya by 1997.
