Pray 2023
7 Days on the Wall
"The 7 Days on the Wall initiative was birthed at the World Prayer Assembly in Indonesia, 2012 when about 9,000 delegates from more than 60 nations gathered to pray for the nations of the world. Since the beginning of 2013, an estimated 5,000 local churches, schools and different groups in South Africa have each taken at least one week per year to pray for spiritual awakening, social justice, and the unsaved in their churches and communities. Since 2020 local networks have increased the number of “Prayer Weeks” in their communities." - Jericho Walls International Prayer Network
You can do it on your own or sign up with others:
1. Start planning early by inviting representatives from various churches/groups to pray/plan together.
2. Set up a WhatsApp group or "Prayer Room" and invite different churches/groups to participate.
3. Draw up a 24/7 Prayer Schedule and start by looking for 24 individuals to pray one hour per day for the week.
4. Have active WhatsApp groups for every church/group participating, running for the week of prayer only.
5. After the first week, make time for corporate thanks giving. You can also organize a prayer gathering with people from the community, as part of the United Prayer for South Africa initiative.
6. Immediately start planning the next week of prayer, not to lose momentum towards the next 7-day “Cycle”.
