14th Sept 2012 –
This Sunday on the 16th September 2012, the Council of Churches in Malaysia ( CCM ) has invited all church leaders, pastors and friends to attend a united prayer gathering at the Stadium Melawati, Shah Alam and joining our hearts together to intervene in prayer for our nation Malaysia.
The Bible describes that the 50th Year as a Jubilee Year (Leviticus 25: 8-55). In that year, land ownership rights are restored to those who sold ancestral land to tide over economic difficulties. Those who voluntarily entered into slavery to overcome financial hardship are also to be set free. The Jubilee is a reminder to all God’s people that God’s salvation includes restoration and release so that there always will be justice, equity and freedom for all.
Prayer meetings and thanksgiving are also held simultaneously around the country to pray for the nation. This Jubilee promise is also crucial for our understanding of Jesus’ statement of His messianic mission:
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.” – Luke 4:18-19 (ESV)
All over Malaysia during this auspicious occasion, Christians and friends are encouraged to join together in a common platform of praying for our nation without ceasing. We are responding in faith as in 2 Chronicles 7:13-14 (NIV):
“When I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or command locusts to devour the land or send a plague among my people, if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”
