READ: Isaiah 62:1-7
For
Zion’s sake will I not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest,
until the righteousness thereof go forth as brightness, and the salvation
thereof as a lamp that burneth.
2 And the
Gentiles shall see thy righteousness, and all kings thy glory: and thou shalt
be called by a new name, which the mouth of the Lord shall
name.
3 Thou
shalt also be a crown of glory in the hand of the Lord, and a
royal diadem in the hand of thy God.
4 Thou
shalt no more be termed Forsaken; neither shall thy land any more be termed
Desolate: but thou shalt be called Hephzibah, and thy land Beulah: for the Lord delighteth in thee, and thy land shall be married.
5 For as
a young man marrieth a virgin, so shall thy sons marry thee: and as the
bridegroom rejoiceth over the bride, so shall thy God rejoice over thee.
6 I have
set watchmen upon thy walls, O Jerusalem, which shall never hold their peace
day nor night: ye that make mention of the Lord, keep
not silence,
7 And
give him no rest, till he establish, and till he make Jerusalem a praise in the
earth.

God
doesn’t only need people who will pray for others, He also needs people to
enforce His will on earth. For example, when elections are coming up in your
state or country, you and other Christians in that vicinity should come
together and pray fervently that only the will of God would stand. You must
pray these kinds of prayers not only during elections but all the time.
The
Lord said in Isaiah 62:1: “For Zion’s sake will I not hold my peace, and for
Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest, until the righteousness thereof go forth as
brightness, and the salvation thereof as a lamp that burneth.”
When
you hear of or know someone working especially hard for the establishment of
God’s kingdom on earth, you should begin to pray for that fellow. Your prayer
and fasting for that person will be very instrumental in their success and you
will also be a part of that success. In Esther 4:15-17, when Esther was going
to turn around the evil policy that sought to kill the Israelites, she asked
that everyone on her team should fast and pray for her.
That
is why she received so much favour from the king, so that he quickly ordered
the death of his well-trusted right-hand man who had generated the said evil
policy.We need to pray for our leaders. They may not tell you, but they face a
lot of battles from the devil and need your prayers to win these battles.
Pastors
are included in this group; you must pray for pastors and ministers of the
gospel if you want the Kingdom of God to continue to win against the devil.
Lastly, Matthew 5:44 says you should pray for people who despise and persecute
you: But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good
to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and
persecute you;
Can
you pray for people who are about to kill you? That is what Stephen did in Acts
7:60 and we see the result in Acts 8:1-8 when Jesus came Himself to witness to
Saul, who later became one of the greatest Apostles of his time. Pray for those
doing evil too, for them to encounter God and they may be some of the greatest
vessels of the Lord in their time.
