Responsibilities of the Church in Relation to the World

• Scripture instructs us to be thankful despite the difficulties we may face in life.

• We are to remain focused in persevering prayer; praying for our communities and nation. Pray that our leaders won't stumble and that they will walk in integrity.

• It's important to also pray for the regions of the world.

• God has anointed every believer for His good work -- every person who calls on the name of the Lord.

• We must make sure that our lives are dictated by the wisdom of God. We must have a well conducted walk of faith and righteousness.

• Redeem the time! We must make sure to take advantage of every moment of chronos and kairos in our lives.

  • Chronos is the exact time, based on the ticking of the clock.

  • Kairos is the opportune moment in time, set time, proper time, etc.

• Allow God to control the times of your life so that you know when to move and so that you recognize the definitive moments in your life and walk with God.

Declaration

I am the house of prayer for all nations.

Prayer

Lord enable me to hear you when you speak of the kairos moments in my life, so that no one in my life misses the opportunity. Let the kairos moments become a reality in my life.
