CONNECTICUT CONSTITUTION PRAYER INITIATIVE
Friday, May 29 – Sunday, June 21, 2020
ON SITE PRAYERS
Background Info to Read before Prayers. The following prayers are in alignment with the original document of the Fundamental Orders being hidden in the Charter Oak Tree to preserve it. The vision and historical fact of the charter oak being split, the vision of a new tree growing up out of the root, changing into the tree of life symbolizes LIFE. It represents what was the Fundamental Orders, the CT Constitution representing the first Constitution in the United States of America, is a tree of life to CT and oak of righteousness.
Repentance is key to this restoration. It only happens through the body and blood of Jesus. Forgiveness of sin and broken body of Jesus Christ leads to the Lord’s redemptive purpose and destiny.
Praise God there has been an abundance of prayer in CT over the years, particularly in the last 25 years regarding repentance and cleansing of the defilement of sin, broken contracts, idolatry, spilling of illegal blood and robbing God. Originally, the state constitution and many of the towns covenanted the town and land to the Lord. These prayers have cleansed the roots of the original covenants these towns made with the Lord. The reproach of inequity has been rolled away in many towns and those towns have been rededicated to the Lord.
If the Lord leads you to repentance be led by the Spirit. Other optional suggestions, also as led by the Spirit, are praise, worship, communion.
