Prayer

Normally towards the end of any year many businesses take stocks, this exercise helps in evaluations. “This is how we know that our tent has been safe, we take stock of our property and we find nothing missing”, Job5:24. This year we faced many challenges but the Lord delivered us from them all, in fact we achieved more than we had anticipated on our plans. Surely the Lord ordered our steps for His name’s sake. So as we close the year, thankfully consider all the activities/blessings of this year and thank God. Do not forget your private ones; salvation, health, promotions, provisions and protection. We remind you only a few. 

We thank God for the successful launch and growth of the Prayer Service early this year. We have witnessed victory in many ways through the corporate intercessions of our people participating every Sunday morning from 9am. Thank God for the successful Keshas, various other prayer/fasting events and current passion of prayer at Chapel.  Thank God for the successful launce of MEN by Design ministry and pray for the up-coming Young Adults to be launched early next year.

Thank God for the liberating sermon series we have had throughout the year; the Leviathans, Leadership, Prison Breaks, Marriage, Evangelism, Gideon Action to name but a few. Thank God for the many souls that came to salvation of Christ, reconciliations, deliverance from evil oppressions, growth in numbers and capacity especially at Children Church, spiritual renewal at Youth Church and many marriages/families that were restored.

Bless the Lord for Pastor Oscar who was a key plenary speaker for International meetings; esp Keswick and World Relief among other pastors. Thank God for wisdom and strength he gave our leaders over the recent land issue and victory so far.  Remember the successful Adiya events, visitations, PMCCs, camps and Ekklesias.

Resourcefulness of Nairobi Chapel was remarkable; “we have been made rich in every way and we became generous in every occasion”-2Cor.9:11; give thanks for Chapelites’ generosity during the events of early this year; Msafaras, IDP resettlements, the halfway homes, the Kimuri kids, adoption of many IDP families, trauma counseling etc. people gave and gave; they gave their skills, time, finances & in-kind, love and compassion despite the prevailing economic commitments of that time of the year. Chapelites did not even remember their sacrificial giving towards relocation just a few months back, but worshipped the Lord in more giving. Chapelites honoured their pledges for various projects this year; thank God for Team 200, relocation pledges, Maputo mission, tithes & offerings and numerous other personal commitments which will never be named. The church has been able to meet its obligations honourably. Surely His grace has been sufficient for us; we may never thank Him enough! THANK YOU LORD.
