365 Day Prayer Shield Over South Africa
What if the Church prayed without ceasing — not for a season, but for a whole year?
We are inviting every believer, every church, and every prayer network to join us in placing a 365-day prayer shield over our nation. One hour at a time. One heart at a time. Together.
When every slot is filled, South Africa will be covered in 24/7 unbroken intercession — crying out for healing, for breakthrough, and for God’s hand to move powerfully across our land.
How it works: Book one or more hourly prayer slots across the full year. When all slots are filled, we achieve continuous, unbroken prayer coverage over the nation. Daily prayer points will be available below the calendar to guide your time with God.
This is your invitation.
This is our moment.
Will you take your place on the wall?

Today's Prayer Points
Week 04: Restoring Covenant, Unity and Godly Legacy in the Family
May’s theme continues as we focus on: Family—restoring covenant, strengthening unity and building a Godly legacy within the home.
God is calling us back to His original design for family to bring healing, unity, overcoming and Kingdom advancement. His blueprint for marriage and family is a divine pattern for fruitfulness, strength and flourishing. As Your Word declares, “one shall chase a thousand, and two shall put ten thousand to flight” Deuteronomy 32:30, reminding us of the power of covenant and unity.
As we return to God’s original design, may our families experience His blessing, dominion and divine covering, establishing a Godly legacy for generations to come.
Week 04: God’s blueprint for marriage is infallible, enabling families to overcome, prosper and advance His kingdom.
Day 26 (27 May 2026)
Establishing Spiritual Strength and Covering in the Family
Theme Scripture for Day 4: 1 Samuel 30
Action Item 1: Strengthened through prayer and dependence on God.
1 Samuel 30:3 “David and his men came to the city, and, behold, it was burned with fire; and their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, were taken captives.”
- Father, after a battle, David returned to Ziklag to find devastation and destruction (1 Samuel 30:3). At times, it feels as if division, misunderstanding, hurt and unresolved struggles have gained ground within my family. As David chose to encourage himself in You, his God, I choose to strengthen myself in Your covenant faithfulness and love towards me. Forgive me where I have relied on my own understanding or allowed hurt, fear or disappointment to weaken our family unity. We pray this in the name of Jesus.
1 Samuel 30:6 “David was greatly distressed; …but David encouraged himself in the Lord his God.”
- Father God, You alone are the source and sustainer of my family, our refuge in seasons of blessing and times of trouble. When hardships and family pressures threaten to overwhelm me, I choose to turn to You as David did in 1 Samuel 30:6. In his times of distress seeking strength, refuge and direction from You alone I pray in Jesus’ name.
1 Samuel 30:8 “David enquired at the LORD, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop? shall I overtake them? And He answered him, Pursue: for thou shalt surely overtake them, and without fail recover all.
- Lord, according to Your word to David in 1 Samuel 30:8, that he would pursue, overtake and recover all, we stand upon Your promise for recovery and restoration where there has been loss and brokenness within our family. Heal wounded relationships, repair every breach that has weakened our family foundations and restore peace, unity and covenant strength within our home. Let our prayer remain aligned with Your Word and purposes as we trust in Your faithfulness to restore and rebuild. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
Action Item 2: Strengthening Family Unity Under God’s Covering.
Psalm 91:1-2 “He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. 2 I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust.”
- Father God, as I seek Your face to enquire of You, teach my family to dwell in the secret place of Your presence according to Psalm 91:1-2. As David sought the Lord, we know spiritual strength comes through prayer and abiding in God’s presence. Let our home remain under the shadow of Your protection. Where fear, division and the cares of the world have troubled us, draw us closer to You. As our refuge and fortress, establish our family under Your covering, we pray in Jesus’ name, Amen.
Ephesians 6:18 “praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints”
- Father, as David received Instruction in Your presence, teach us to remain watchful and steadfast in prayer according to Ephesians 6:18. Stir our hearts to pray for one another and to cover our family. Let prayer strengthen our unity, guard our hearts and keep us aligned in Your will. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Action Item 3: Recovery, restoration and generational covenant Blessing.
1 Samuel 30:8 “David enquired at the LORD, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop? shall I overtake them? And he answered him, Pursue: for thou shalt surely overtake them, and without fail recover all.
- Lord, as David enquired of You according to 1 Samuel 30:8, I bring every family matter before You today. Show me the way we should go. Reveal what needs healing, what requires repentance and what You desire to restore within our home and generations. Give me ears to hear Your voice, wisdom to discern Your will and strength to follow Your leading. Guide our family that we may walk in healing, restoration and covenant faithfulness. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
Romans 8:28 “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God…”
- Lord as I seek Your face, remind me that through You there is hope, recovery and total restoration as You make all things work together for our good according to Romans 8:28. Establish our family securely in Your covenant love and lead us into the healing, unity and peace You have prepared for us in alignment to Your Word. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
Deuteronomy 6:6-7 ““And these words which I command you today shall be in your heart. 7You shall teach them diligently to your children and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up.”
- Father, write Your Word upon our hearts and teach us to pass Your truth to our children and generations to come according to Deuteronomy 6:6-7. Establish our home on Your foundations, that Your Word may guide our conversations, decisions and daily lives. Let our family walk in covenant faithfulness and leave a godly legacy that brings honour to Your name. We ask this in Jesus’ Name, Amen.
