We are the Bride of Christ. Lord, make us worthy of this position in You. Your command is for us to be holy, even as you are holy. We ask you to come as a “refiner’s fire and a launderer’s soap” (Mal. 3:2-3) to cleanse and purify our leaders, the shepherds of each flock as well its elders, to bring righteous teaching according to Your Holy Word, the Bible. In the Name of Jesus we bind false teaching and acceptance of sin in any congregation under the guise of human rights and cultural acceptance. We lose Your Spirit of Truth and Repentance to sweep through these churches. We pray for each Shepherd to be honored and blessed as they proclaim the true gospel of Jesus Christ, Him crucified and raised to life, the ONLY way to salvation and eternal life. In Your Name we bind the spirits of judgment and contentment and loose Your compassion and fire, stirring up Your Army to battle against the enemy in spiritual warfare in order to take back our city for Christ, May we seriously take up the great commission…of going "into all the world [to] preach the gospel to every creature." Break down the barriers, physical and spiritual, that separate these congregations and unify us as “THE Church of Christ.” May citizens know we are Yours by our love for one another. And now, Lord, we declare over all congregations in Battle Creek, that Jesus Christ alone is the mediator connecting us to the Father and that all honor and glory be given to You alone, in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

1 Tim. 2:5, 6b For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus, who gave Himself as a ransom for all.

Eph. 5:25-27 …just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless.

Romans 15:5-6 Now may the God of endurance and encouragement grant you harmony with one another in Christ Jesus, so that with one mind and one voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.…

Romans 12:9-11 Love must be sincere. Detest what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Outdo yourselves in honoring one another. Do not let your zeal subside; keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord.…
