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?

Joel 2:12-13 “Now, therefore,” says the Lord, “Turn to Me with all your heart, With fasting, with weeping, and with mourning.” So rend your heart, and not your garments; Return to the Lord your God, For He is gracious and merciful, Slow to anger, and of great kindness; And He relents from doing harm.” (Consecration through heartfelt repentance and returning to God)

Week 3: Healing the Land

Day 15 (15 June 2026)

REPENTANCE FOR BLOODSHED AND VIOLENCE

ACTION ITEM 1: Pray against crime, violence and lawlessness in South Africa

Hosea 4:1-3 “Hear the word of the Lord, you children of Israel, For the Lord brings a charge against the inhabitants of the land: “There is no truth or mercy or knowledge of God in the land. 2By swearing (oath) and lying, killing and stealing and committing adultery, they break all restraint, with bloodshed upon bloodshed. 3Therefore the land will mourn; and everyone who dwells there will waste away with the beasts of the field and the birds of the air; even the fish of the sea will be taken away.”

  • Father, we repent for the sins that have opened the door to crime, violence, corruption, exploitation, sexual immorality, theft, deception, lawlessness, abortion, domestic violence, and bloodshed in our land. Forgive us for departing from Your truth, mercy, righteousness, and knowledge. In the name of Jesus Christ, we bind every spirit of violence, murder, corruption, deception, theft, sexual immorality, exploitation, lawlessness, greed, rebellion, and destruction operating in our nation. Expose every work of darkness, dismantle criminal networks and strongholds, protect, heal and restore the innocent, and bring offenders to repentance and justice. Release Your Spirit of truth, righteousness, mercy, justice, integrity, purity, wisdom, and the fear of the Lord throughout South Africa. Restore families, strengthen communities, establish righteous leadership, and raise up righteous men and women who will uphold justice, protect the vulnerable, and rebuild what has been broken. Let justice roll down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream. May Your Kingdom come and Your will be done in our land, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

ACTION ITEM 2: Intercede for families who have lost loved ones through violence and injustice.

Leviticus 17:11 “For the life of the flesh is in the blood…to make atonement for your souls…”

Ecclesiastes 12:14 “For God will bring every work [deed] into judgment, including every secret thing, whether good or evil.”

Isaiah 33:22 “for the Lord is our Judge, the Lord is our Lawgiver, the Lord is our King; He will save us.”

Luke 18:7-8 “And shall God not avenge His own elect who cry out day and night to Him, though He bears long with them? 8I tell you that He will avenge them speedily…”

  • Abba Father, we lift before You every family grieving the loss of a loved one through violence, crime, and injustice. Draw near to the broken-hearted, comfort those who mourn, and restore hope where grief has overwhelmed. Heal wounded hearts, strengthen the weary, and surround them with Your peace, love, and presence. Lord, You are our Judge and Lawgiver. When justice seems delayed or unanswered, remind us that nothing is hidden from Your sight. Uphold the innocent, give strength to those seeking answers, and bring every deed into judgment according to Your righteousness. Father, establish truth, justice, and accountability in our land. Vindicate the innocent, bring closure where there is uncertainty, and let righteousness prevail. Restore what has been broken, bring hope to weary souls, and let Your goodness and mercy surround all who suffer loss. In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

ACTION ITEM 3: Declare the silencing of the spirit of murder and death over South Africa.

Genesis 4:10 “And God said, “… The voice of your brother’s blood cries out to Me from the ground.”

Numbers 35:33 “You shall not pollute the land where you are; blood defiles the land, and no atonement can be made for the land, for the blood of that is shed on it, except by the blood of him who shed it.”

Hebrews 12:24 to Jesus the Mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better things than that of Abel.”

Isaiah 60:18 “Violence shall no longer be heard in your land, Neither wasting [havoc, destruction, devastation, ruin, oppression, robbery, spoil] nor destruction within your borders; But you shall call your walls Salvation, And your gates Praise.”

  • Silence the spirit of murder and death: Father God, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ. We repent for the innocent bloodshed that has defiled our land and for our silence, indifference, and failure to stand in the gap. Forgive us where we have not trusted You to bring righteousness, justice, and restoration to our nation. Your Word declares that bloodshed defiles the land. Lord, we acknowledge the violence, murder, and bloodshed that have wounded our nation. We humble ourselves before You and ask that every accusation against us be covered by the blood of Jesus Christ. Jesus, You are the Mediator of a better covenant, and Your blood speaks better things than the blood of Abel. Jesus, You hold the keys of death and Hades. Let Your blood silence every cry for vengeance, death, and further bloodshed. Let the power of Your sacrifice cleanse our land, break cycles of violence, and release mercy, healing, and restoration. Father, according to Hosea 4:1-3, we repent for the sins that have brought reproach upon our nation. Cleanse our land, establish righteousness and justice, and let violence no longer be heard within our borders. Lord, hear our cry: Heal our land. Let Your mercy triumph over judgment, Your peace rule, and Your kingdom be established throughout our nation.
  • Prayer for healing of blood shed: Father in the name of Jesus Christ, we bring before You every place in our land that has been defiled by bloodshed, abortion, violence, murder, and injustice. We repent for the shedding of innocent blood and ask for Your mercy upon our nation. Jesus, Your blood speaks of better things than the blood of Abel. As You hold the keys to death and Hades, let Your blood flow over every part of defiled land. Cleanse and heal every place marked by innocent bloodshed, violence and death. Break cycles of violence and destruction and restore what has been lost. Let righteousness, justice, and the fear of the Lord be established in its place. Restore communities and comfort those who mourn as Your presence brings life, hope and a future. Let Your kingdom of righteousness, peace, and justice be established throughout our land. We pray this in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.
