Together we are taking NEW GROUND

We are thankful for the hundreds of people who have joined together for our national Elim Prayer events held throughout the year. These have been significant moments to unite and engage Elim church congregations and leaders together in prayer.

Continuing with our focus on Community Prayer, which we commenced with our Get Up, Get Ready, Get Going prayer week in March, our September prayer week theme is NEW GROUND.

When we read Joshua 1, we are reminded that God always leads us into the New Ground of Promise. Being guided by God, rooted in His Word (the sword of the Spirit and Truth) and guided by Him every step of the way, He will bring fresh fire, fresh strength and fresh zeal.

So together, let’s be released from fear and discouragement, with the promise of God’s power and presence in us wherever He leads us to ‘Go!’.

Let’s remind ourselves of the words from Joshua 1:6-9

Be strong and courageous, because you will lead these people to inherit the land I swore to their ancestors to give them.

Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go.

Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.

Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.
