Big rallies had been planned for an event called March for Jesus on May 30, 2020. Since the Covid-19 crisis has brought different kinds of restrictions upon mass gatherings, plans have been modified!
Instead of large processions, organizers are encouraging smaller groups to scatter in their communities praising and praying as they walk, drive or even stand in their homes or their front yards. You can even do this by yourself - right on your neighborhood street.
They are calling this format of praise and prayer a “PraiseWalk,” after the well-known idea of prayer walking, which is simply praying near the very places we expect to see God answer our prayers.
The PraiseWalk model highlights praise and thanksgiving, but also encourages participants to pray for Christ’s blessing upon the people, families, schools, businesses and government leaders of their communities.
If you want to participate, click here for a Praise Walk guide. This guide will lead you through seven expressions of praise and prayer that spring from Paul’s letter to the Philippians. First, praising the Lord Jesus with truths in Philippians 2:5-15. Then, from Philippians 4:4-20, praying for the people of our communities, and other cities and countries.
