Dimapur, October 1 (MExN): The Council of Nagalim Churches (CNC) has informed that every third Sunday in October has been designated as the Naga National Prayer Day, by the National Assembly on May 31, 2022.
Stating this in a press release on Saturday, CNC General Secretary, Rev Seksim Kasar has called on the Naga people to take part in the prayer day (October 16). He also called on leaders of all faiths and beliefs (religions) to set apart a brief moment during the usual congregational worship service of the day and solemnly lead in praying for the Naga nation.
According to the release, the main focus of prayer in this year’s national prayer day would be to acknowledge God and who he is for the Nagas; seek God’s forgiveness of the sins of our fore-fathers and our present generation; and to seek God’s guidance and blessing for our leaders.
It also asked the people to pray and seek God’s blessing for every Naga citizen, village, town and city and to seek God’s preservation of every inch of Naga territory till to the end time.
Along with this, the CNC also called on the people to confess “our faith in the savior, our commitment to the cause and our pledge to the Naga flag and constitution, the embodiment of our national identity and sovereign power.”
“We hope all will gladly extend cooperation to our appeal knowing that prayer, basing on the promises of God, is the most acceptable and desirable worship of God in Christ. Therefore, alongside with our own other priorities, let us also give our hearts to this unique resolution of the nation,” it added.
