The 23rd Session with the Lord in His Court (From 11.00 p.m., Friday, 1st April - 3.00 a.m., Saturday, 2nd April, 2011).

About Court Session with the Lord:

'Court Session with the Lord' is the weekly non-denominational intercessory program initiative of The Lord's Court International (LCI), a non-denominational intercessory ministry called by God to return His people to their knees in personal prayers and intercession for a one-on-one communion with God

LCI is an unusual ministry with an unusual mandate as contained in Joel 2:14-17 (CEV): "I am the Lord your God. Perhaps I will change my mind and treat you with mercy. Then, you will be blessed with enough grain and wine for offering sacrifices to me.

Sound the trumpet in Zion! Call the people together. Show your sorrow by going without food. Make sure that everyone is fit to worship me. Bring adults, children, babies, and even bring newlyweds from their festivities.

Tell my servants, the priests, to cry inside the temple and to offer this prayer near the altar: "Save your people, Lord God! Don't let foreign nations make jokes about us. Don't let them laugh and ask, 'Where is your God?'"

A global ministry with members from all the continents of the world with the specific instruction from God to bring all the challenges of God's people that have led held them bound before Him in His court for adjudication and intervention, it is founded by Pastor Ray Festus Symperr, an intercessor by calling cum a television producer, publisher and information technologist by training.

THE 20TH SESSION WITH THE LORD IN HIS COURT (FROM 11.00 P.M., FRIDAY, 11TH MARCH - 3.00 A.M., SATURDAY, 12TH MARCH, 2011)

About Court Session with the Lord:

'Court Session with the Lord' is the weekly non-denominational intercessory program initiative of The Lord's Court International (LCI), a non-denominational intercessory ministry called by God to return His people to their knees in personal prayers and intercession for a one-on-one communion with God

LCI is an unusual ministry with an unusual mandate as contained in Joel 2:14-17 (CEV): "I am the Lord your God. Perhaps I will change my mind and treat you with mercy. Then, you will be blessed with enough grain and wine for offering sacrifices to me.

Sound the trumpet in Zion! Call the people together. Show your sorrow by going without food. Make sure that everyone is fit to worship me. Bring adults, children, babies, and even bring newlyweds from their festivities.

Tell my servants, the priests, to cry inside the temple and to offer this prayer near the altar: "Save your people, Lord God! Don't let foreign nations make jokes about us. Don't let them laugh and ask, 'Where is your God?'"

A global ministry with members from all the continents of the world with the specific instruction from God to bring all the challenges of God's people that have led held them bound before Him in His court for adjudication and intervention, it is founded by Pastor Ray Festus Symperr, an intercessor by calling cum a television producer, publisher and information technologist by training.

THE INTERNATIONAL CO-ORDINATOR'S GOODWILL MESSAGE

Dear Attendees,

Precious greetings in the most wonderful name, Jesus Christ on whose behalf I express my profound appreciation for chosing to attend this session.

My beloved, let me categorically state that satan and his cohorts have been working hard to stop us using so many intrigues. But I thank the Lord for His faithfulness. He has, indeed, been helping us all through the woods. Glory be to His holy name.

Tonight, for the first time since the inception of this weekly session in particular and The Lord's Court International (LCI) in general, we are not able to upload the Order of Sitting for this session for you to download or print out for use at the event following myriads of technical and other related challenges. Very importantly, the leadership of The Lord's Court International (LCI) needs your consistent prayers. Scores of challenges abound but the Lord is able to see us through.

Let me quickly encourage all the attendees to, please, co-operate with the Holy Spirit tonight for direction because He has promised to help and comfort us. I advise you to listen to Him for prayer direction tonight. And as you do so, I assure you that you will have a wonderful session with the Lord in His court. You will surely return triumphantly in Jesus' name.

I welcome you to The 20th Session with the Lord in His Court.'

Together, we shall testify!

Yours in the service of the King
& His Kingdom,

Pastor R. F. Symperr.

    Hence, we do not make it compulsory for attendees to give towards His work at The Lord's Court International (LCI). But if you are led by the Holy Spirit to give, we advise that you do so cheerfully and with a willing heart so that your seed sown can germinate, grow and bear good fruits in due season.

    Special Instruction:

    Now, if you are led to give an offering tonight, simply lift the offering before heaven and begin to pray to compliment     the prayers of intercessors at the Central Program Co-ordinating Centre (CPCC) Nigeria.
