Answer to Prayer
Both the churches and the state take the challenge of poverty seriously. The resources to tackle this issue exist, but until now, the willpower and wisdom were lacking.

Challenge for Prayer
The spiritual grip of the enemy remains strong after centuries of entrenched paganism, and continues its hold on the Church. Christians now recognize that spiritual warfare is essential to consolidate what breakthroughs have been achieved. Pray that the Church will wake up to the enemy’s deep-seated influence, bind the strong man and pray in transformation and harvest.
