From the hour of 3am 
Our focus will be on 
Non-Violence 
Prayer 
Alpha and Omega, right from the beginning of time the earth has been corrupt before You, and filled with violence. The wicked ones have pride as their necklaces; while violence covers them like a garment. But Father we know You can take violence away from the land. Save us, save Your people Lord, in Jesus name, amen. 
Praise 
Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus, 
Just to take Him at His Word 
Just to rest upon His promise, 
Just to know, "Thus saith the Lord!" 

 Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him! 
How I've proved Him o'er and o'er 
Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus! 
Oh, for grace to trust Him more! 

 I'm so glad I learned to trust Him, 
Precious Jesus, Savior, Friend 
And I know that He is with me, 
Will be with me to the end. 

 Oh, how sweet to trust in Jesus, 
Just to trust His cleansing blood 
And in simple faith to plunge me 
'Neath the healing, cleansing flood! 

 Yes, 'tis sweet to trust in Jesus, 
Just from sin and self to cease 
Just from Jesus simply taking 
Life and rest, and joy and peace. 
Ponder 
"And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force. 
Read 
Isaiah 60:18 Violence shall no longer be heard in your land, Neither wasting nor destruction within your borders; But you shall call your walls Salvation, And your gates Praise. Micah 2:2 They covet fields and take them by violence, Also houses, and seize them. So they oppress a man and his house, A man and his inheritance. Micah 6:12 For her rich men are full of violence, Her inhabitants have spoken lies, And their tongue is deceitful in their mouth 


Prayer-point 
Let us pray against all forms of violence in our lands. Let us pray specifically against sexual, tribal, racial, domestic, political, boko haram, bandits and herdsmen’s violence Let us pray that God will protect us and our loved ones as well as all His children from violence. 
Charge 
Let us declare that the Lord will make us instruments of His peace as we shall not yield our members unto violence.

#NextGeneration Stories

Cherokee Legend Do you know the legend of the Cherokee Indian youth's rite of Passage? His father takes him into the forest, blindfolds him and leaves him alone.  He is required to sit on a stump the whole night and not remove the blindfold until the rays of the morning sun shine through it. He cannot cry out for help from anyone.  Once he survives the night, he is a MAN. He cannot tell the other boys of this experience, because each lad must come into manhood on his own. The boy is naturally terrified. He can hear all kinds of noises. Wild beasts must surely be all around him. Maybe even some humans might do him harm. The wind blew the grass and earth, and shook his stump, but he sat stoically, never removing the blindfold. It would be the only way he could become a man!

Why Do You Smoke?

6 personalized approaches to quitting forever.  Everyone smokes—and quits—for different reasons, and the key to getting smoke-free for life is to find out why you are smoking and then change those behaviors. If you are a Recreational or Social Smoker, you may feel that your limited smoking poses no serious medical harm to yourself or others. You may, however, ignore warning signs that your occasional smoking is progressing into addiction, especially during periods of stress or increased alcohol use. A periodic review of these warning signs may help motivate you to consider becoming smoke-free. The Scared-to-Quit Smoker has no end of reasons (excuses) to put off going smoke-free to some future date. Sometimes it helps to focus on just quitting for one day. If you can quit for a day, you can quit every day. This realization can be a great confidence builder, and helps to decrease your fears about not smoking “ever again.” Forever is too big a word for many addicts; thus the old adage...
