World Watch Prayer Request

World Watch prayer request - June 24, 2014

Hello! Please pray for the new UN climate agreement that is currently being negotiated by and with country leaders around the world.

Why it matters: The new agreement will supersede the Kyoto Protocol and will set new targets for countries to reduce their emissions from 2020 and beyond.

For reference, you may check this article written by The Christian Science Monitor:

Prayer points:

* that they will have peaceful negotiation talks
** that country leaders be given wisdom to set targets and an implementation plan to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions
*** that they will have unity, camaraderie and cooperation that is needed to achieve a binding agreement (to be signed in 2015) that will be beneficial for all countries.

Stewardship of the Earth is our kingdom mandate "God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it." (Gen. 1:28)

"“Dominion and awe belong to God;
    he establishes order in the heights of heaven.
" (Job 25:2)

"Truly I tell you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven." (Matthew 18:18)

It is time to exercise our prayer muscles. This new agreement will impact future generations after us. Thank you very much for praying and being a part of this! :-)
