““When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come.””
We must pray because only the spirit of God knows what is in His heart for us. Therefore, we must ask Him to lead our prayers. He knows what God intends to do in Malawi. He understands the terrain, He knows what lies ahead. We must begin by asking for his guidance/ help as we embark in prayers. We must ask him what He wants/and how He wants things down in Malawi. He alone knows what Malawi needs in this season.

Romans 8:26 “Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words.”

Declare this word over our lives and the church families.
