post,<\/a> we had begun praying God’s word over Nigeria. We gave a bit of background information in that post, but in case you’re wondering why we’re concerned, majority of our crew members are of Nigerian descent, so this is really close home.<\/p>\n\n\n\nJoin us as we declare Isaiah 62 over Nigeria:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For <\/em>Nigeria\u2019s<\/em><\/strong> sake I will not keep silent,
for <\/em>Nigeria’s<\/em><\/strong> sake I will not remain quiet,
till her vindication shines out like the dawn,
her salvation like a blazing torch.
The nations will see your vindication,
and all kings your glory;
you will be called by a <\/em>new name<\/em><\/strong>
that the mouth of the Lord will bestow.
You will be a crown of splendor in the Lord\u2019s hand,
a royal diadem in the hand of your God.
<\/em> <\/em><\/sup>No longer will they call you Deserted,
or name your land Desolate.
But you will be called Hephzibah,
and your land Beulah;
for the Lord will take delight in you,
and your land will be married.
As a young man marries a young woman,
so will your Builder marry you;
as a bridegroom rejoices over his bride,
so will your God rejoice over you.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nI have posted watchmen on your walls, <\/em>Nigeria<\/em><\/strong>;
they will never be silent day or night.
You who call on the Lord,
give yourselves no rest,
<\/em> <\/em><\/sup>and give him no rest till he establishes <\/em>Nigeria<\/em><\/strong>
and makes her the praise of the earth.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nThe Lord has sworn by his right hand
and by his mighty arm:
\u201cNever again will I give your grain
as food for your enemies,
and never again will foreigners drink the new wine
for which you have toiled;
<\/em> <\/em><\/sup>but those who harvest it will eat it
and praise the Lord,
and those who gather the grapes will drink it
in the courts of my sanctuary.\u201d<\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/sup>Pass through, pass through the gates!
Prepare the way for the people.
Build up, build up the highway!
Remove the stones.
Raise a banner for the nations.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/sup>The Lord has made proclamation
to the ends of the earth:
\u201cSay to Daughter Zion,
\u2018See, your Savior comes!
See, his reward is with him,
and his recompense accompanies him.\u2019\u201d
They will be called the Holy People,
the Redeemed of the Lord;
and you will be called Sought After,
the City No Longer Deserted.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nAmen!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
