Developing a prayer strategy that sticks

ESSENTIAL: Widespread Prayer - We deliberately engage lots of Christians to intercede on behalf of the ministry site.

“Now it came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, that one of His disciples said to Him, “Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.” So He said to them, “When you pray, say: Our Father in Heaven Hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.” (Luke 11:1-3)
