DAY 6 – THE CHURCH & THE BODY OF CHRIST
FOCUS: Revival, Unity, Power, Faithfulness, and Kingdom Advancement
📖 SCRIPTURAL VERSES
- Matthew 16:18 – “I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it.”
- Ephesians 4:11–13 – “For the equipping of the saints… for the edifying of the body of Christ.”
- Acts 2:47 – “And the Lord added to the church daily those who were being saved.”
SHORT MESSAGE
The Church is not a building. It is the Body of Christ, called to represent God’s power, love, truth, and light in a dark world. When the Church is strong, societies are transformed. But when the Church is weak, confusion and compromise increase.
Today is set apart to pray for the revival, purity, unity, and effectiveness of the Church. This includes pastors, leaders, workers, ministries, and every believer. The enemy continually seeks to weaken the Church through division, moral compromise, fear, distraction, and burnout. But God desires a Church that is united, Spirit-filled, bold, and faithful to its calling.
As we pray today, God will renew strength to His servants, release grace and fresh anointing upon His people, restore passion for souls, and empower the Church to operate in signs, wonders, and miracles as the Gospel is proclaimed, bringing glory to His Name and salvation to many.
