How a unified prayer movement can change Burundi? Dr. Paul Taylor


How a unified prayer movement can change Burundi?
Dr. Paul Taylor

There is a movement going on in Burundi to bring all believers, all people together AS ONE to pray for the Nation. This is wonderful to hear.  Prayer can and will unify Burundi.

Always remember we are praying for God’s will to be done and not our own. We must keep our personal preferences out of our public prayers. We pray for those in authority, but do not push our preferences. “I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people— for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. This is good, and pleases God our Savior, who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth.” 1 Timothy‬ ‭2:1-4‬. Ultimately God wants all people to be saved and to come to know the Truth.

Moreover, we do not represent a candidate.  We represent King Jesus and His Kingdom only.

When we pray our will, we get into what we call witchcraft prayer. Meaning we are trying to manipulate God and others to do what we want.  This is not good.

We know that God wants peace, and to prosper the people of Burundi. We know that God loves everyone, regardless of sex, race, religion or tribe.  So there is so much we can pray without specifically praying for a candidate or a party.  We, please, keep this in mind.

Many Christians think that only someone of their faith should be in office.  This is not true and can cause great division.  The greatest example is President Trump.  This man may or may not be a Christian but he represents Christian principles and is doing more for our nation than many who professed to be a Christian. He does not have a squeaky clean past, but he is leading the country in a way that God is blessing America.

So be sure to ask for what Jesus thinks and pray His will be done and not that of man.

Praying daily for Burundi. Plaase pray for America as we are preparing for our Presidential election.

Believing for the impossible!
