PRAYER FOR THE NATION OF KENYA

Last Updated on July 31, 2021 by Pastor Ikechukwu Chinedum

Today we shall be engaging in prayer for the nation of Kenya. Kenya is located in the Eastern region of Africa. It shares border with South Sudan to the North West, Ethiopia to the North, Somalia to the East, Uganda to the West, Tanzania to the South and the Indian Ocean to the South-East. Kenya is no doubt one of the most blessed countries in the world. She pride herself as one of the biggest exporters of coffee and many other consumables.

Unlike some other African countries, Kenya has never withnessed or experienced any form of civil crisis. As a matter of fact, the political system of governance in Kenya has been more stable than any other East African countries. Also, Kenya boasts of one of the largest economies in Africa. The total GDP of Kenya stands at $190.970 billion and $3,867 Per capital. Little wonder, the life expentancy of Kenya competes with some of the highly civilized climes.
Judging by all the facts, one might begin to wonder why it is still important to say a prayer for the nation of Kenya?

Truth be told, most of these facts and figures about the nation’s economy are just mere statistic. They do not entirely represent the actual reality of things happening in the campestral jungle and valley of Kenya. In recent reports, it was discovered that of the entire population of Kenya, about half of her populace live below the poverty line. What is with African nations with good economy but highly impoverished citizens?

As if that isn’t enough, natural disasters is one of the biggest causes of poverty in Kenya. Also, though the nation doesn’t have an external enemy inflicting pains and suffering upon the people of Kenya. However, tribalism and ethnicity is the ugliest war most Kenyans are comfound with.
The scripture says, can two work together unless they agree? Amos 3:3. Devil understand better than anyone, the power in unity. That’s is why the devil is always swift to cause disparity among people because not until there is a division, the devil have no place. Psalms 133:1 “Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity”!
The unity of Kenya is threatened by tribalism. Our prayer can save the Nation from the biggest enemy of herself.

PRAY FOR THE GOVERNMENT OF KENYA

Despite the political stability and easy transition of government in Kenya, the country is still not in the right state. Instead of seat back and complain about the government, why not direct such energy towards praying for the government. Proverbs 29:2 “When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn”.

The Bible says made us to understand that wisdom is profitable to direct, as citizens and lover of our nation, we can seek the wisdom of God for our rulers. James 1:5 “If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him”. We should understand that the problem that the government faces at times confuse them. There is a need for citizens to raise an altar of prayers for them.
When you are about saying a prayer for the nation of Kenya, do well to remember the nation’s government.

PRAY FOR THE ECONOMY OF KENYA

A sustainable economy allows the people of a nation to work independently without seeking aides from foreign organisation. When the economy of nation is good and running smoothly, people don’t need to go extra miles before they can make ends meet. There won’t be a need to seek the help of any local or international organization before people can gain access to a suitable health care facility.
Also, a good economy will give a lasting solution to the old age poverty level of any nation. Apostle Paul in book of 1 Thessalonians 4:12 “That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing” admonished the people to work tirelessly for them to be independent. Working in this context doesn’t mean doing a rigorous job to earn a little, it implies doing everything within our scope as children of God to make the economy of our nation a healthy one. Until this is achived can we succeed in our various works.

PRAY FOR THE CITIZENS OF KENYA

It would interest you to know that aside from economy hardship facing the country, tribalism has become the second biggest cause of poverty in Kenya.
The scripture adminished us to love our neighbors as ourselves. And one of the fruits of the spirit is love as inscribed in the book of Galatians 5:22-23 “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law”.
It is pertinent that the gift of the spirit dwells in the heart of every citizen of Kenya. The Grace to love one another without reproach, looking beyond the scope of ethnicity, tribalism which are one of the biggest causes of nepotism.

When every Kenyan man and woman sees themselves as one Nation, then can they form a formidable weapon towards scattering the syndrome called poverty that has eaten deep into the system.

PRAY FOR THE CHURCH IN KENYA

At this perilous time, the church becomes a place of refuge for the trouble hearted. There is a great need for the Church of God to be strengthened a need for a fresh firebrand revival that will cause a change in the heart of many people.
The Church is also one of the leaders of any nation, spiritual though, people listen and hold the word of God sacred. A fresh power of the Holy Spirit that will saturate the heart of all Kenyans breaking down the every thought of tribalism.

Conclusively, It is important that we pray for ourselves. Your nation might not be faced with any of this issues, that doesn’t stop you from praying for your nation. The Bible says pray without season. As much as you love your nation and wouldn’t want it to spoil, also remember to say a prayer for the nation of Kenya.
