If you were at the Greater Philly Christian Writers Conference and attended the Wednesday evening general session, you heard my dear friend, Terry Bryan, share her burden about the upcoming elections in Kenya. Terry has spent a number of years sharing the Gospel and caring for the physical needs of “her people in the Far Places.” (Terry is a nurse and one of the most dynamic Christians I know.)
Please read Terry’s prayer request below and join us in asking Father to cover the elections in Kenya with His presence and peace.
Hi all, it’s Terry,
It has been quite some time since I have written. I love you all, but since I have been waiting on the Lord, I have been quiet. It has been a time of reflection and restoration of which I am grateful for. I am in US, however I have an urgent request for prayer for Kenya.
Please pray for peace before, during, and after the elections in Kenya. Although Tuesday, Aug 8 is their elections, the time difference makes it our Monday night that people will be lining up to vote. These are our brothers and sisters, and they need our fervent prayers in love.
Please pray for peace in every part of Kenya, among every tribe and every people group.
Even when the ballots are cast, there are petitions to the court contesting the results and that time can be volatile also so please continue to pray for peace.
Remember we do not fight against flesh and blood (people) but against principalities and powers of darkness (the enemy).
“In the name of Jesus, the enemy is bound, the angels are there. There will be peace on all sides. Pour the blood of Jesus on it, the entire area and the people. There would be no attacks on the police or people or by the police, army, home guard, terrorists, or people. Send in your angels Lord to take care of the enemy. There would be no trouble, no vengeance lived out. Bind up the enemy. Release the Holy Spirit. Open the flood gates of heaven. Let there be peace. Let it spread like a consuming fire. Let it bring life. Rise up and live. Let there be no more deaths. No more injuries. No more crimes.”
Thank you for your continued prayer, praying for you too.
Love you,
Terry Brynan
Praise the LORD for the peaceful voting & freedom at the polls. I wish I knew more about the candidates to know better how to pray, but God does and may He be glorified the more in Kenya under whomever He desires, and may the leader serve the people… especially those most in need. Amen!
