CNC Naga National Prayer Day inaugural service on October 16

Dimapur, October 13 (MExN): The Council of Nagalim Churches (CNC) has extended invitation to join the special prayer warfare and attend the inaugural service of the Naga National Prayer Day on October 16 at 11:00 am at Agri Expo, 4th Mile Diphupar, Chümoukedima district. 

Through a press release, Rev Seksim Kasar, General Secretary, CNC has requested all the national workers “to turn up cheerfully and perform your spiritual duty as required of you. This is your reasonable service to God. As you present yourself before God, may He prolong your life on earth with His blessing.”

Rev Kasar stated that some important prayer points to consider are ‘prayer of consecration; prayer of repentance for the sins of our forefathers and present generation; prayer of blessing for the Naga Nation, National Leaders, your community, your village, your locality, your family & yourself; pray for the nations/peoples around us, Israel and the world for peace; prayer of confession of our faith in the Saviour, our commitment to the cause, and our pledge to Naga Flag and Constitution, the embodiment of our national identity and sovereign power.’

‘In the past, God had shown His mercy on the Nagas in that He has destined us to be His own, Nagalim for Christ. Accordingly, the Nagas had decided to follow Jesus Christ and have been marching forward,’ he stated. “To renounce this commitment is ungodly and unchristian. Therefore, we must go forward. Nothing should stop us on our journey to future, Nagalim for Christ. Come what may, we must keep on going towards our destiny. There is no turning back from the course,” he asserted. 

Stating that now Nagas are to fight the battle with prayers because it is the battle of believers, Rev Kasar said, “The proclamation of the Naga National Prayer Day is none other than a war cry in your village gate. When the ancient people heard the bugle and the war-drum, they got up and readied themselves for war. We must do the same.”

He has called on all to join in the respective Church Worship Service on Sunday, October 16. “Pastors, priests, chaplains and catechists, lead the prayer in the front. We request you to set one beautiful significant moment to pray for your nation, for your leaders, for your neighbouring countries and for the world,” he added.
