67000 Gather at Rugby Stadium in Pretoria, South Africa

Coming Saturday afternoon about 67 000 Christians will come to Loftus Versfeld in Pretoria, SA to worship the Lord Jesus and also to listen to a message by Angus Buchan. This event will be broadcasted live on God TV globally. Millions will watch it.

This event at Loftus is one of the answers to the prayers of hundreds of thousands of Christians over the last decades for South Africa. God is doing new things in our nations. This is one of them.

We want to encourage you to pray for this event during the next 2 days. Let us pray with faith. God still answers prayer: Mark 11:23 Truly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, 'Be taken up and thrown into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says will come to pass, it will be done for him.

· Pray that God in His grace and mercy will touch the hearts of people on Saturday: for changed lives, that He will heal people spiritually, emotionally and physically.
· Pray for the worship team – that they will minister in the power of the Holy Spirit and with much brokenness and joy.
· Pray for Angus Buchan, that his message will be a word in season and that it will be in the power of the Holy Spirit. Eph.6:19-20: - Pray also for me, that whenever I open my mouth, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel…pray that I may declare it fearlessly, as I should.
· Pray for the sound equipment, the flow of the traffic and for an atmosphere of peace and the presence of the Lord.
· Pray that God will have mercy on our nation.
· Let us confess and declare God’s sovereignty (Father, Son and Holy Spirit) over South Africa. “I confess and believe that the Triune God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, is sovereign and rules from heaven and is in control over South Africa!” Ps.47:8 God reigns over the nations; God sits on his holy throne.
· Let us pray and confess that nothing is impossible for God. “I confess and believe that God sees and responds to everything that is happening in South Africa and that nothing is too difficult for Him.” Gen.18:14: Is anything too hard for God?
· Let us confess that God knows our situation in South Africa and that God listens to our prayers. “I confess and declare that God sees everything in this nation, that God has good purposes for this nation and that He answers our prayers.” Gen 16:13 So she called the name of the LORD who spoke to her, "You are a God of seeing," for she said, "Truly here I have seen him who looks after me." Act 14:16 In past generations he allowed all the nations to walk in their own ways. Act 17:26-27 And he made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined allotted periods and the boundaries of their dwelling place, that they should seek God, in the hope that they might feel their way toward him and find him. Yet he is actually not far from each one of us.
· Come boldly to God’s throne of grace and ask Him to help us. “I confess and believe that God answers prayer! Isa 41:17 When the poor and needy seek water, and there is none, and their tongue is parched with thirst, I the LORD will answer them; I the God of Israel will not forsake them. Isa 58:9-10 Then you shall call, and the LORD will answer; you shall cry, and he will say, 'Here I am.' If you take away the yoke from your midst, the pointing of the finger, and speaking wickedness, if you pour yourself out for the hungry and satisfy the desire of the afflicted, then shall your light rise in the darkness and your gloom be as the noonday. Matt.7:7 Keep on asking and it will be given to you.
· God sent His Son for the salvation of the world. Pray for the salvation of thousands this coming Saturday. “I confess and believe that God will bring salvation!” Ps.79:9 Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of your name; deliver us, and atone for our sins, for your name's sake! Joh.3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.
· God want people to be saved and reconciled with Him. “I confess and believe that God wants the wicked to repent and turn to Him!” Eze 18:23 Have I any pleasure in the death of the wicked, declares the Lord GOD, and not rather that he should turn from his way and live?
· God is a God of grace and mercy. With Him there is forgiveness available for all people that will humble themselves and confess their sins. Ask the Lord to have mercy on us, forgive our sins and turn away His judgement on this nation. “I confess and believe that God’s mercy will triumph over judgment!” Jas 2:13 For judgment is without mercy to one who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment. Eph 1:7 In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace. Luk 24:46-47 and said to them, "Thus it is written, that the Christ should suffer and on the third day rise from the dead, and that repentance and forgiveness of sins should be proclaimed in his name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem.
· God always wants to use His church. Pray that Christians will humble themselves, confess their sins, turn from their wicked ways and pray that God will heal our land. “I confess and believe that the church in South Africa will bring glory to the Name of Jesus!” 2 Chron.7:14.
· Pray for God’s protection against all the attacks and plans of the evil one to discredit this meeting on Saturday or any backlash on the work afterwards. “I confess and declare God’s victory over the evil one and the He will strengthen us and protect us against the evil one.” 2 Thess.3:3: But the Lord is faithful, and He will strengthen and protect you from the evil one.
· Pray for the mighty work of the Holy Spirit: to convict people of sin (Joh.16:8-11), for boldness to preach the gospel, the healing of the sick and that God will work with signs, wonders and mighty deeds. (Acts 4:29-30; Heb.2:4)
