DAY #15 - KA KHOSA CAREPOINT
The Ka Khosa community is “the place where prostitutes and thieves are made” according to many locals. It is probably the roughest location of any of the CarePoints, but it also shines as a very bright light. In a community where alcoholism, drug abuse, and child abuse are rampant, there is a place of refuge for the children. Pray for the safety of our workers there, and pray for protection for the children who live there. Pray that God will touch lives and turn this community around through the testimonies of the children whose lives are rescued and developed at the Ka Khosa CarePoint.
Today we are blessed to have Eric Jaffe, the pastor of the Orange Park Campus of Celebration Church of Jacksonville, lead us in prayer for the children.
- Lord,
We pray for Ka Khosa and it’s people. It has been said that the Ka Khosa community is a place where prostitutes and thieves are made. Well, my bible says that Jesus’ name is above every other name, so right now we join in prayer believing for Your name to now be the banner over that place.
That all spiritual strongholds of darkness would be broken and forced to abandon that place. That Christian men and women would rise up. That it would no longer be called a place of darkness, but a place of light. That people would have a concern for the next generation, that their hearts would turn towards Jesus, the God of the universe and that their hearts would turn from their wicked ways.
Lord, even as You have done in my own life, removing the darkness of drugs and alcohol from me. Lord You would were good enough to take away my obsession to drink and use drugs and turn it into an obsession to serve You. Might you do the same for the people of that district! Your word says that You are no respecter of men. Lord, I am the least of all men, as You did it for me, Lord please do it for them.
We ask that You send great people, full of the Holy Spirit into that area to be a light in the darkness. Lord let Your Holy Spirit go too and fro in that area calling people to repentance. Let Your might and power be shown and more than evident so that the powers of darkness must flee.
Lord we plead Your blood over that city. Might the violence stop for good. Might Your angels protect its inhabitants.
Lord, we plead and intercede for that city. Let freedom ring in that place. Let Your love abound...
Jesus we honor You and praise You. May Your will be done in Ka Khosa.
It is in Jesus' name we pray!
