Day 28: Freedom of Information

For the wrath of God is revealed from Heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, (Romans 1:18)How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without preaching? (Romans 10:14)
Media is the tool by which information is communicated and disseminated. It includes newspaper, television, radio and the internet for various purposes such as advertising, marketing, public relations, political communication, entertainment, news and announcements. While some of regulations may be needed to restrict young minds from exposure to corrupt and unhealthy materials, the suppression of the media that conceals facts and information can be abused for the purposes of control and tyranny. The government exercises control over the mainstream media but due to the proliferation of the internet, people now have access to alternate perspectives

Prayer Points:
  • Continued liberalization of the media
  • Mainstream media to be allowed to communicate without fear or favor
  • All to have access to communicate through mainstream media.

Prayer Shield: for our elders, pastors and leaders
Leaders’ character: Wise
