Heavenly Father, thank you for your love and Grace. 

Help us to continue to be a praying Church, where prayer is not an event, but a lifestyle. 

Help us to cultivate a prayer movement—from prayer meetings to a praying people.

Ignite in us the passion to rebuild the spiritual altar of the church through prayer.

Saturday Prayer Session - 04_04_2026

 

Theme: Victory Under My Feet

At its core, easter is about:

•        Jesus coming back to life from death:
•          Victory over sin, death and evil
•          Hope for us all who believe
•          Opening the door to a new relationship with God
•          Given a new identity in Christ
•          The cross forgave us, but resurrection brought us home

His suffering is part of the atonement plan of Jesus – through his suffering, many are restored and renewed

Easter carries deep meaning:

•          From death to life
•          From darkness to light
•          From sin to forgiveness
•          From confusion to clarity
•          From slavery to sonship

The full gospel journey:

• Isaiah 53 → Jesus dies for sin
• Easter → Jesus rises from the dead
• Ephesians → We are made alive AND adopted

Resurrection Victory

•        Sin is defeated
•        Death is defeated
•        The enemy is defeated

Our Identity

We are Forgiven, Adopted, Predestined, loved, secure, Accepted, Redeemed, Informed, heirs and sealed with the Holy Spirit

As we stand: Power, Influence and Confidence come from a sense of identity

Adoption, Mission and Vision

Adoption means becoming God’s child through the finished work of Christ. We now belong to him as a son or daughter

Eph 1:5 - Rom 8:14

• Bondage is a Spirit
•  Adoption is a Spirit

 Key aspects of Jesus' Mission of reconciliation include:

• The cross as the means to an end – the shedding of Jesus’s blood accomplished our victory
• Fixing broken relations – sin causes a big divide that humanity could not mend
• The great exchange – Jesus took upon himself the sins of humanity, offering his righteousness in exchange.
•  Reconcile all things – through Christ, not only humanity, but all things in heaven
• The ministry of reconciliation – believers are entrusted with sharing this message, acting as ambassadors to implore others to be reconciled

•  Let us pray that the Lord will grant us the grace to reconcile the unsaved back to him
•   Eph 1:22 And he put all things under his feet and gave him to be head over all things to the church. We decree and declare that sin shall not have dominion over us – sin is destroyed over our lives - we are walking in victory holistically
• Eph 2:10 for we are his workmanship created in Christ Jesus for good work which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.
• The mission of God to bring light, restoration and impact beyond what we can imagine will be evidenced in our lives.
