Praying for our nation...

This morning we had an amazing prayer time at the Union Buildings.

Due to the ANC youth league march going on at the Union Buildings this morning we decided to meet at a coffee shop nearby and decide from there whether or not to go to the Union Buildings.

We decided to go...

We entered through the bottom gate and walked to our normal prayer spot. Philippians 4:7 sais "And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." This is literally what we experienced. Such a peace flowing from being in the presence of God.

Amidst reports of apparent violence we experienced such a peace as we prayed for our country, our leaders and the churches in South Africa. While we were there even more police forces came in aswell as special forces. We tried to approach some of the police officers to pray for them, but they were not open to it. We could really sence the anxiety in their hearts.

We prayed that the church would rise up in this nation and take her rightful place, bringing the peace of God into every area. God has got His hand over this nation and we need to trust Him. And the way we walk, talk and think must reflect this trust that we have in an Almighty God which will overflow into a peace that transcends all understanding...

Look at our beautiful city =)
