Let us keep up the prayer shield for our nations and take time to thank God for every plot and scheme of the enemy that has been uncovered and stopped.

Let us never take for granted the Lord's mighty hand of protection over our nations. Sky news reported that there has been 13 terror attacks prevented over the last 4 years. They are the ones we know about - how many times has the Lord intervened on our behalf that we will never know about.

STAY VIGILANT

We are looking to continue to mobilise effective informed united prayer across our nations by praying for God’s wisdom, revelation, insight and protection for:
1) Government and World Leaders.
2) Emergency Services
3) Armed forces
4) Intelligence Services
5) Media and communications
6) ISIS and others who may wish to cause danger.
7) Angelic protection for our gates, airports, ferries and ports, tunnels including the Euro tunnel, rail networks and stations, shopping centres, schools, colleges, football stadiums and other vulnerable places where many people gather together.
8) Closing of spiritual gates to violence and premature death.
9) An unprecedented move of God across our communities and nations.

Why?
1) To provide mercy and protection to reduce the danger to life and limb from attacks for our communities and nations.
2) To release a clear trumpet call to those in the valley of decision.
3) To reduce fear and hopelessness - The aim of terror is to bring fear, confusion, hatred – we stand against that in the name of Jesus because his perfect love casts out fear.
4) To bring any plots into the light before they are actioned.
5) To see the Church arise and stand united around Jesus love.

Who can pray?
1) Churches, Groups and individuals – anyone, anywhere general prayer.

How can we pray?
1) This is bigger than one network so we need to stand united to release a clear sound across all of the networks and denominations.

a. Lord have mercy across the UK today.
b. Fill us with your love and protect us.
c. May Jesus be revealed across this land.
3) Train and equip people to pray effectively.
4) Provide prayer resources with regular updates as circumstances demand.
