Raising a Prayershield in your Area
The Prayershield is the vision of a group
of people living in Derby, UK. They have seen how God responds to
their prayers to change situations and to bring great blessings
into people’s lives. They are committed to raising a shield
of prayer over your local area.
Prayershield - The Vision
Christians in Derby, and all over the country, are praying as
never before. Our vision is that the prayers of God’s people
locally will serve to protect all aspects of life in our community.
As people pray, we believe that God will not only protect us from
harm, but will also pour out His blessing.
It is written in Isaiah 62:6 ‘I have posted watchmen on your
walls’. As we pray, we see through God’s eyes into the
distance, and, like the watchmen of old when they stood on the watchtower
of the city, we can see threat of trouble approaching and pray for
God to change the situation.
Within your area, we are praying for good things to happen under
the blessing of God. We desire that the younger generation will
inherit a place that is good to live in and that they will be blessed
through the life of the community, and, in the future, will inherit
all that God has established among us.
When considering the next generation, the Psalmist says that we
should ‘Walk about Zion [the kingdom of God in your area],
go round her, count her towers, consider well her ramparts, view
her citadels, that you may tell of them to the next generation.’
(Psalm 48: 12, 13).
Prayershield - What is it?
Our vision is to watch and pray for our community 7 days a week,
24 hours a day, which is 168 hours each week. Our hope is that for
each of the 168 hours in the week we will have one or more volunteers
willing to pray. We hope to see God move in power to bless lives
and that many will be brought into the Kingdom of God.
