Praying for the world.

Praying for God’s mission and for the world. “The Book of Acts is filled with prayer meetings; every forward thrust the first church made was immersed in prayer. Take another look at the church at Pentecost. They prayed ten days and preached ten minutes and three thousand people were saved. Today we pray ten minutes and preach ten days and are ecstatic if anyone is saved.” - Ronald Dunn

Praying for God’s mission and for the world. About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the other prisoners were listening to them. Acts 16:25

Our Prayers can go where we cannot. While many things may seem impossible from a human standpoint, in the realm of prayer there are no impossibilities. - Brother Andrew

How to pray for the world 1- What breaks your heart?

2- Prayer as a lifestyle We always thank God for all of you and continually mention you in our prayers. We remember before our God and Father your work produced by faith, your labor prompted by love, and your endurance inspired by hope in our Lord Jesus Christ. 1Thessaonians 1:2

How to pray for the world 7-Prayer as action Rinaldy Damanik - Indonesia "I am doing very well in both body and soul. I believe this is because of the many prayers from many brothers and sisters all over the world. How am I aware of this? As of yesterday, since my detention at the beginning of the year, I have received 13,425 letters and postcards from abroad."

How to pray for the world 8- Pray with faith Jesus replied, “Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.” Matthew 17:20

How to pray for the world 8- Pray with faith Maybe it would be better just to ask for safe things—“God, bless them” or “give them comfort”—instead of having the boldness to ask for what I really want to see happen… God’s reputation is God’s business, and it’s not my job to pray the prayers and answer them too
