UNANDERRA, Australia, Dec. 29, 2022 /Christian Newswire/ -- Australia Christian prayer leaders invite their brothers and sisters in Christ, prayer groups, prayer networks and churches to join with them all over the world to pray at sunrise on New Year's Day 2023 at a public location such as a hill, lookout or landmark in your city or town. This year our focus is to pray for Revival & Transformation in the nations. Over the last seven years we have had registrations from 70 different countries.
Warwick Marsh, from the Canberra Declaration said, "David said in Psalm 108:2, 'I will wake the dawn with my song.' During this time of prayer, we want to focus on giving great praise to God. We also want to pray for revival and transformation in our respective nations and the nations of the world: 2 Chronicles 7:14. Let us all pray for a great harvest of souls for the Lord Jesus Christ."
Marsh continued, "We also want to encourage you to contend in prayer for souls to be saved in your nation, pray for our unsaved friends and family to know Jesus in 2023. 2 Pet 3:9 is clear that God is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Psalms 113:3 says, 'From the rising of the sun to the place where it sets, the name of the Lord is to be praised.' Use the prayer resources on the website and social media and register your location at: https://www.sunriseprayerrelay.com Our prayer is that with your help, this worldwide Prayer and Praise Relay will go viral."
Pat Steele, a prayer & evangelist leader in Wollongong Australia, said, "We encourage you to pray the Lord's Prayer together aloud as the sun rises and make a declaration that Jesus Christ is Lord of your life, your family, your region, and your nation. At your location we encourage you to include praise and worship, prayers, and scripture readings. We suggest 30 minutes, but you can pray for longer. You could even take communion, shine a torch, or light a candle. What you do for your sunrise celebration is up to you."
