42 MFM POWERFUL PRAYER POINTS FOR BETTER FOOD STORAGE SYSTEMS, REDUCED AGRICULTURAL LOSSES AND PRESERVATION OF HARVESTS
PRAYER FOCUS
Father, in the name of Jesus, let there be divine intervention over food storage, preservation, processing, transportation, and distribution. Let agricultural harvests be protected from avoidable losses, spoilage, destruction, waste, and deterioration, in the name of Jesus, Amen.
Every cycle causing farmers and food producers to lose the fruits of their labour after harvest, break now by the power of the Holy Ghost, in the name of Jesus, Amen.
Lord, release wisdom, innovation, resources, infrastructure, skilled personnel, and favourable opportunities for effective food preservation and storage, in the name of Jesus, Amen.
BIBLE EXHORTATION
God desires fruitfulness and wise stewardship. The Bible teaches that increase should be gathered, preserved, managed, and used wisely.
Joseph’s administration in Egypt demonstrates the importance of preparing for abundance and preserving food during seasons of plenty. Through wisdom received from God, Egypt stored grain during seven years of abundance so that food would be available during famine.
Genesis 41:35–36 says:
“And let them gather all the food of those good years that come, and lay up corn under the hand of Pharaoh… And that food shall be for store to the land against the seven years of famine.”
This shows the importance of preparation, storage, stewardship, planning, and responsible management of harvests.
We therefore pray for preservation systems that reduce waste, protect food quality, strengthen farmers, improve food supply, and ensure that the fruits of agricultural labour are not unnecessarily lost.
PROPHETIC ILLUSTRATION
Joseph did not merely pray for abundance; he also received wisdom to preserve the abundance that God provided.
The harvest was gathered, organized, stored, protected, and managed until it was needed.
Therefore, we pray that every agricultural harvest shall receive proper preservation. Let wisdom arise for grain storage, cold-chain systems, warehouses, drying, processing, packaging, transportation, inventory management, and responsible distribution.
Let every season of abundance be accompanied by the wisdom to preserve its increase, in the name of Jesus, Amen.
