Welcome to day 4 of our prayer chain. Today we are praying for the Bakweri tribe, the people who live in Bonduma, Buea and for the nation of Cameroon.
- Worship God
- Read the scriptures
- Pro 14:34 KJV Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.
- Rev 14:6-7 KJV And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, (7) Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.
- Rev 5:9-10 KJV And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; (10) And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.
- 2Co 10:3-5 KJV For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: (4) (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) (5) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;
- Luk 4:18 KJV The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,
- Pray for Bakweri People
- The Bakweri people have had a lot of bloodshed for the sake of land! Pray therefore for the Lord to have mercy on the land.
- Pray for the strongholds of tradition to be broken so that the indigenes can be set free to serve the Living God, and added to the fold. (Very few Bakweris have believed who come from this area, after so many years of fasting, prayer and evangelism carried out in this area). Their refusal to accept strangers is a disservice not only to their physical development but more so spiritually.
- Ask the Holy Spirit to prepare their hearts to open up to the gospel when they hear it preached.
- Pray that God will save men of influence in Buea, from several domains of life – governor’s office, council, military, medical doctors, financial authorities, Police, warders, business people, etc
- Break the power of unbelief in the people’s hearts
- Break the backbone of religion. Many hang on a hollow form of religion/church made up mostly of Church activities but lack a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ and do not experience a life of victory in Christ Jesus.
- Pray that more Bakweris will be called into the ministry: Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Teachers, Pastors, etc so as to take the gospel to their fellowmen.
- Thank God for the fertility of the land and the produce it brings forth.
- Spiritual Warfare:

- Pray for foreigners living in Buea.
- Most churches are made up mostly not by the indigenes but by foreigners. Pray that the Bakweris will be hospitable and welcoming to foreigners.
- Pray against any land issues between the Bakweris and foreigners for peace to reign.
- Pray that the fear of God will rain down on the people and that righteousness will sweep across the land. Pray that as the rain of God’s presence and power falls, even stones will be soaked in brokenness and repentance as we pray.
- Pray on as the Spirit continues to lead you for Bonduma, Buea, Cameroon.
