We dream of a city where the Kingdom of God is established through believing, consistent prayer.  Our desire is to network intercessors all over the city of Long Beach praying in concert over various areas of concern.  Each month we will pray over a council district, City leaders, and schools and churches in that district.  We will also pray over a Cause monthly and soak our City with the prayers of the righteous.  We will also offer one of the NDOP seven spheres of prayer.  To learn more about National Day of Prayer please visit their website.

In 2 Timothy we see this exhortation - "I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence."  Again in Proverbs 11:11 we see that "By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted."

American Families

 

Pray for strength for the security and future of our American Families, marriages, and children and for a shield against the forces seeking to destroy this fundamental institution of God.

No institution in the culture is facing more intense persecution than the family. Not only are the incidences of divorce, infidelity and abuse on the rise, but social engineers are relentless in their efforts to dismantle the traditional family. Pray that mothers and fathers will take their place in the home and care for their children.

 

Pray from:  Joshua 24:15 Psalm 127:3-5 Proverbs 22:6

Pray for: Wisdom for parents in raising their children

Children who are victims of divorce

Domestic violence

Unity among families

Protection of marriage

Righteous legislation protecting families

Preserving parents’ rights in raising and educating their children

Reconciliation among family members

The youth to repent for not respecting our parents
