Missionary Prayer Point: The Equality Bill

Although the Equality Bill does not as yet apply to Northern Ireland, it is surely a matter of concern and reason to pray, that this bill is making it extremely hard for Christians in England , Scotland and Wales to live out their faith in any sort of practical way. On Monday 25th January this Bill is due to come up before the House of Lords, for them to either ratify it’s enforcement or send it back to the House of Commons for reconsideration. We need to pray this Bill is rejected by the House of Lords, because what applies in England today will soon be foisted upon us. Pray particularly for the Christian Institute as it lobbies members of the House of Lords.
