The prayer session will start from 6pm on Friday to 6pm on Saturday, March 28.
According to the National Coordinator of the NIG, Pastor Dr James Obeng, the 24-hour prayer chain will connect Ghana to God’s calendar of keeping watching over the nation.
“These watches of prayer will open many doors of blessing to the nation. It will enable us to either open or close spiritual gates to ensure the fulfilment of the will of God for the nation,” he added.
“Whenever God is about to do a might new thing, He always sets His people praying,” he said.
Pastor Dr Obeng said other intercessory groups taking part in the exercise are Pray Ghana and Intercessors of Ghana.
