Will you help to shape the Destiny of Australia?

WE ARE MEANT TO BE "THE GREAT SOUTHLAND OF THE HOLY SPIRIT" AND IT ALL STARTS WITH PRAYER!

Every revival in history has been birthed in prayer.

Australia has a rich Christian Heritage. You can also find out more at www.chr.org.au

Since the middle of last century there has been strong prayer for Revival and Transformation in our nation. In 2001, Brian Pickering, through the Australian Prayer Network (APN), started to bring prayer people and groups together on the internet, and that has opened the door to a new communication system which has made it possible for us all to find each other and communicate better. We have been able to pray into the future of our country in a more coordinated way.

So many prayer groups have sprung up all over the country, and yet we have no way of knowing how many people are actually praying; sometimes people get discouraged when they don't see answers to their prayers, and they give up. In 2015 we are hoping to remedy this with a special plan.

THE LORD IS CALLING TOGETHER A PRAYER ARMY IN 2015

It is all about "connecting the dots" and using modern technology for HIS Kingdom business.

In 1998, God gave me the word PRAYERNET, and in 2008, He showed me a picture of the world covered by a net, which is now the emblem for my 'Global Prayer Connections'...

We are just about to embark on the 2015 National Day of Prayer & Fasting followed by the 40 Days of Prayer & Fasting, which have the theme DESTINY and a focus on Delighting in the Lord. See www.nationaldayofprayer.com.au and www.40daysofdelight.com.au for more details.

It will be a good time to start this initiative in conjunction with these events. Individuals are right now being asked to organise small gatherings around Australia as pre-events in the week leading up to the National Day of Prayer & Fasting on Sunday 15 February which is observed in The Great Hall of Parliament House in Canberra and in local churches all around Australia. You can register to be involved in this, as an organiser or an attender of a pre-event, on the National Day of Prayer & Fasting website. It will be then natural to gather as a local group regularly through the 40 Days of Prayer & Fasting from 18 February to 29 March 2015. The 40 Days website will have a list of groups meeting too so others can join you.

 A NIGHT OF PRAYER FOR AUSTRALIA

The Australian Prayer Network is again this year calling its member Churches, Prayer Groups and Individuals to a night of prayer for our nation to be held on Sunday 25th January 2014, the eve of Australia Day.  In 2014 Australians of all denominations gathered in local communities across our nation to join in this national night of prayer. Timing and venue for each gathering across the nation is at the discretion of the organiser and prayer gatherings do not have to be registered with us. Falling on a Sunday evening this year we expect that many Churches will use at least some of the prayer points during Sunday services on 25th January as we ask God to guide our nation into the year of 2015.

Due to the many hundreds of requests we receive each year for prayer points which can be used on the night, this year we have uploaded them to our website so that those who are holding prayer gatherings can download them for their use. There is no copyright on the material which may be freely used/reproduced (with acknowledgment to the Australian Prayer Network as the source) as required. Please go to our website at www.ausprayernet.org.au to download the material.  Thank you for your support of this initiative to undergird our nation in prayer on our national day and at the beginning of another year.
