LORD, THEY BE MANY THAT FIGHT AGAINST ME
Bible Text: Psalm 56:1-13
Introduction:
it is common knowledge that the Watchman Catholic Charismatic Renewal Movement is a unique/peculiar Ministry because of the kind of assignment/mandate she received from the Lord. An aspect of the assignment which should be urgently undertaken at such a time like this is: “To Stand In The Gap For The People”! (Ezek.22:25-30).

Today, we shall all arise to tell the Lord, what has come upon us and seek His intervention (Lam.5:1-4).
