 Ya kufWellcome again to our series On 40 Days of Prayer. Today is Day That 3 And we thank you so much for being part of this service, this ministry and waiting upon this programmes everyday. I want to invite you and welcome you wanted on this particular day and allow you to be at peace with the Lord as you seek him in prayer. Today being Day That 3, we also recognise that we are coinciding with when the general conference session is starting on it. We want to thank God for the many delegates that he sotani.

Haks Suo Wa raal, beautifully inspiring piece of music. We read the text of Ibru's chapter 4, verse number 15 and 16. Hebrew chapter 4 verse number 15 and 16 for we have not a high priest which cannot be touched with a feeling of infamities but was in all points tempting like as we are yet without sin. Let us therefore come broadly unto the throne of grace that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in the time of need. Best text from Paul in the book of Hebrews speaks to our context this morning or if you are watching us in the afternoon or evening you see Paul is reminding us that in this life we shall have needs, we shall have struggles, we shall have tribulations, we shall feel low, we shall feel besieged and perplexed but yet he is encouraging us that we have one on our side who is able to come into our situations and sympathize with our situations. You see the high priest here is Jesus Christ and especially when Paul says which cannot be touched that Greek phrase there cannot be touched has a meaning of who is able to suffer with us to mean that he is able to experience and to share rather in our experiences. You see we just came to pray and we are praying concerning many challenges that we are having individually, completely as a church and we are seeking the Lord and you see even as I speak to you this moment I know there are struggles unique to your situation, there are struggles within your family, there are struggles at your workplace, there are struggles about the spiritual work and all these things at times make us overwhelmed we don't know how to deal with him, we don't know what to do but the privilege of our prayer is such one that it presents and appeals to us where we can come and lay our burdens and this moment the text of the book of Hebrews reminds us that even as you seek the Lord in prayer even as you bear the burdens of our life we are not alone we have one on our side that we can always lay our burdens to him and this one then Paul reminds us that he is able to sympathize he is able to get into a situation to suffer the way we suffer to suffer in our suffering, to get pain in our pain and this is very unique because we appreciate that the one that is on our side the one who intersins for us, the one that we are seeking for is such one that is able to put himself in our situation this moment whatever struggle you are going through wherever challenge is aware, wherever flexion is facing you wherever tribulations you are going through I want to assure you that we have such a high priest Jesus Christ who is able to exactly come into the situation and feel as you feel and experience as you experience but you see the good thing is now when he comes in the situations of our lives he does not just come to experience with us and remain in our situation but he comes to experience but also to remove us from the situation you see ourselves we experience the tribulations we experience pain, we experience grief we experience all manner of challenges in our lives but most of times we are not able to move ourselves from that situation but the one that we are talking about who is able to come into our situation he is also able to carry us out of the situation he comes into our situation that he can remove us from the situation but when we find ourselves in the situation we are forced to remain in the situation and so we can die in that situation but the one I am talking about he comes when he finds himself in that situation that he may come and not just experience the situation with us but also remove us from the situation very good examples Daniel and his friends are thrown into a lake of fire and he quickly came into the situation he came to experience to share in the experience but not just to share in the experience but to remove them from that experience because the experience is not a good one and so Jesus pauses for we do not have a high priest who is not able to be touched to suffer with us and to experience our tribulations but one who in all points in all areas of his life was tempted as we are and so yet he knows when we are paid knows when we enjoy he knows when we are desperate he knows how to feel it if you are desperate and one day he cried to his father father, father, my father why are you forsaking me he has shared that aspect of being forsaken in life and this morning or this afternoon this evening wherever you are you could be feeling forsaken Jesus was there and he came through because in this world I have shared the same experiences but have overcome and so when he comes in our situation he doesn't come just to stay with us to comfort us but he comes to remove us from the situation now what is the situation this moment what is the situation this morning what is the experience like are you feeling caged are you feeling in a place you can't help yourself are you feeling overwhelmed maybe it is the issues in your marriage or your health issues or your medical career issues what is it are you feeling overwhelmed your spiritual journey you are backsliding every time you are trying your best to be this Christian who works genuinely with the Lord but as you try it you find yourself stumbling and falling again back that scene don't struggle we have one who is able to sympathize but not just to sympathize but to come and remove us from the situations and so this moment as you pray we are praying and inviting him who is able to come into our situations to remove us from our situation and we need to do this in the context of especially verse number 16 which says let us therefore come bodily unto the throne of grace that we may obtain mercy and find grace in time of need you see we need to come in confidence that it doesn't matter the ugly situation it doesn't matter how it looks like if we fix our eyes on Jesus we fix our eyes on him who is able to sympathize and also to remove us from the situation we will find grace we will find mercy we will have confidence and I want to invite you as we pray this moment forget about what we are going through but look at him who is able to come right now in a situation and remove you that you can have peace in your mind you can have peace in your life and you can obtain mercy from the Lord as I invite my brother Felix to come and join with me in this prayer and I want to invite you also wherever you are that you may be part of this brother Felix and brother Paul just come and join me in this prayer this moment we are going to pray and we are praying that the Lord may come into the situations of our lives in the situation obviously we are praying for you that God may come in the situation of your life you see not wherever you are we don't know what you are going through but I'm sure there is something you are struggling with and we are here praying for you but I want you to embrace faith say Jesus as these men are praying they are praying for me please God hear this prayer I want to put your faith in this prayer as you seek the Lord because we have a high priest who is able to sympathize not just to sympathize with us but actually to remove us from those ugly situations of our lives I know we are praying for a general conference session that is taking place from today and we know many of us ask what kind of leadership are we going to get who will become the next president who will become the next executive secretary let me tell you we don't have to get worried we have one who controls their affairs of the church let's seek him this morning and tell him Jesus you know what this is your church give us the right leaders and then we wait in faith you shall do it he has done it in the time past you shall do it even today for your life and for the life of the church let's have faith and confidence in him who was tried and tested in the very manner and he qualifies to share in our afflictions not just to share and comfort us but also to remove us from this situation in faith we seek him wherever you are take your time pray together with us brother Felix and Paul thank you for joining us this moment we need to pray and intercede there are a number of challenges people going through the church is requesting us to pray brethren are sitting using the power of the Holy Spirit that they may come up with a list of the leadership of the church and it takes our prayer to have the spirit of God in the meetings and so even as we pray for ourselves and we pray for our viewers we also pray for the general conference session that is taking place right from today and we pray for the few days that shall be there up to 11th the presence of God may be manifest in that meeting we start with brother Paul we come to brother Felix and then end the prayer from here my brethren my dear viewers wherever you are join us in this prayer we want to thank you because indeed we have faith for God you choose your children and even as the meetings take place God may peace be with you may you feel the hearts and the minds of wisdom God and me each and every person honestly seek to be led over the spirit who are

to your so Lord we approach the throne of grace and confidence because we know we have one on our side the high priest of our life who was tried and tempted in the very manner we are today yet he overcame every trial so he qualifies because he is able to sympathize with us he is touched with the infamities and he knows our pain just knowing and sympathizing but Lord he creates a way for us and
