From the hour of 5am 
Our focus will be on 
Solidarity 
Prayer- 
Lord God You said a house divided against itself cannot stand, may we Your children stand in solidarity with one another as go on on our journey in this life. Let unity reign in the body of Your Son, Jesus Christ, amen. 
Praise- 
Stand up, stand up for Jesus! 
Ye soldiers of the cross 
Lift high His royal banner 
It must not suffer loss 
From victory unto victory 
His army shall He lead 
Till every foe is vanquished And Christ He is Lord indeed. 

 Stand up stand up for Jesus The trumpet call obey 
Forth to the mighty conflict In this His glorious day 
Ye that are men now serve Him Against unnumbered foes 
Let courage rise with danger And strength to strength oppose. 

 Stand up stand up for Jesus Stand in His strength alone 
The arm of flesh will fail you You dare not trust your own 
Put on the gospel armour And watching unto prayer 
Where duty calls or danger Be never wanting there. 

 Stand up stand up for Jesus The strife will not be long 
This day the noise of battle The next the victor’s song 
To him that overcometh A crown of life shall be 
He with the King of glory Shall reign eternally. 


Ponder- 
While some people are quick to visit prisons to reach out, they often do not consider all those living in one form of prison or the other around them and sadly even themselves. We are often called upon to join solidarity movements either for religion, race, politics, or against crime or a negative frequent occurrence. But what if our solidarity starts from our hearts where we agree that the authority of the world and all lives has been given to Jesus Christ by God Almighty Himself? The reason why we have divergent views on issues that ought to be generally agreed on is because people now believe their opinions count even if it is above what the Holy Spirit counsels against! Who has the final authority in this world, in your life and in all that you commit your life to, be it family, work, school, causes or movements. 
Read- 
2 John 1: 9, 10, 11, 7 - Anyone who goes ahead and does not abide in the doctrine of Christ does not have God; he who abides in the doctrine has both the Father and the Son. If any one comes to you and does not bring this doctrine, do not receive him into the house or give him any greeting (no solidarity); for he who greets him shares his wicked work. For many deceivers have gone out into the world, men who will NOT acknowledge the coming of Jesus Christ in the flesh; such a one is the deceiver and the antichrist. 
Prayer-point- 
Let more children of God stand for each other and fight the only enemy. Let our solidarity be real, pure and enduring as we look out for one another. Let us never join the side of hate. Let us love as God instructed. 
Charge- 
Revelation 1:8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, says the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. In all that you align with, does Jesus Christ take pre-eminence?

Story Time

  Lisungu Chieza from Zimbabwe was 26 when she was told in 1996 that she was HIV+. "This started my long journey of coping with being HIV+. My husband died in my arms at home eight months later." Not only did Lisungu have to cope with her own illness and losing her husband, but her husband's family also wrongly blamed her for his death. They came to her house, took away his things, and said, "If those children of yours get sick, don't even call us. We won't have anything to do with them or you." They would not even let her go to her husband's burial. "I gave up a college course I had planned to do. All I thought about was death. I neglected my children and myself." But her mother supported her. Lisungu began to find hope again and joined an HIV support group. Then she started to help others who were also HIV+, and took a college course about HIV-AIDS. She spoke at HIV meetings with the young people in her church. She believes that it is ver...
