Whatever your focus and calling – there is a vital role in standing for LIFE giving values, actions, leaders, laws, policies, ethics, righteousness and justice in our nation. The very least you can do is stand for Jesus’ kingdom to come on earth in how you vote, lobby and pray. Invite Jesus to rule – so LIFE is abundant and blessings flow to all!

• Pray daily for Jesus’ kingdom to come so we fulfil God’s purpose for the Commonwealth of Australia – honouring all past and present generations living on this continent – Indigenous and immigrant citizens of our federated nation.
• Join national prayer networks. See LINKS
• There are some crucial opportunities to speak up and take a stand for Australia. See WHAT’S ON

Description:  Somethings have to be dealt with by standing together in prayer nationally.

The over arching theme of these National Days of Prayer and Fasting is revival and transformation for our nation. If each church attending believer brought one person to Christ in one year and discipled them we could double the Australian church in one year. At that rate we could win Australia for Christ in 4 years. Please pass this call to prayer onto your friends and networks. Life produces life. Together we can make a difference.
