TARGETED GLOBAL PRAYER

DAILY PRAYER FOR JESUS TO BE KNOWN TO THE PEOPLES OF THE WORLD
“From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the LORD’s name is to be praised.” Psalm 113:3

  • Saturday Morning Recap

    Romans 10:13

    For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

    1. Klenovica, Croatia: Klenovica is a quiet fishing village on the Adriatic Sea, and draws vacationers to its beaches. A basic internet search does not reveal any evangelical churches in Klenovica. Pray for the Lord to send someone to start a church there, and raise up for Himself many followers.

    2. Salem, India: Pray for Christians who have a desire to teach the Bible and proclaim Christ in Salem to see God open the doors for them to do so.

    3. Your Choice: Please pray for a request you remember from the other locations featured this week:

    Munich, Germany

    Everett, USA

    Trinidad, Bolivia

    Thank you for praying!

  • Salem, India

    Pray for the Lord to send out workers to the harvestfield of Salem.

    1. This picture was likely taken three years ago. Pray for the two pictured ladies, that wherever they are today, the Lord will send a gospel witness into their lives and give them an opportunity to accept Jesus as their personal Lord and Savior.

    2. Turning the camera around in a 360° street view of this location reveals a couple dozen motorcycles. In India, you have to be at least 18 years old to get a driver’s license for a geared motorcycle. Pray for the the person who has most recently started driving who will use his motorcycle on this road today to also receive a clear gospel presentation before the end of the year, and believe.

    3. The religious beliefs of Salem’s approximately 1.4 million residents fall into these categories:

    89.79% Hindu

    7.48% Muslim

    2.36% Christian (mostly Catholic)

    0.37% other groups

    Another 1 million+ people live in the Salem metro area, with similar religious belief statistics. Increasing government restrictions and Hindu nationalism in India have made it difficult for missionaries to enter and work there. Pray for Christians who have a desire to teach the Bible and proclaim Christ in Salem to see God open the doors for them to do so.

    Romans 10:13

  • Klenovica, Croatia

    Pray for the Lord to send out workers to the harvestfield of Klenovica.

    1. At first glance, there seems to be nothing special about the picture above – it’s just an average view from an intersection of apartment buildings in the distance. But because of the God Who can see through walls, this picture represents everything going on in the lives and souls of the people who live in these dwelling places. Pray for the people themselves to become aware of God’s care, by meeting and then abiding in the Son Whom He sent for them.

    2. Klenovica is a quiet fishing village on the Adriatic Sea, and draws vacationers to its beaches. It has been around for at least 638 years  (the first historical mention of it occurred in 1388). A basic internet search does not reveal any evangelical churches in Klenovica. Pray for the Lord to send someone to start a church there, and raise up for Himself many followers.

    3. Pray for a person who has a Bible but has never read it to be drawn by the Holy Spirit to pick it up and begin reading it today. Pray for the Spirit to then illuminate that individual’s understanding of the gospel, and for saving faith to be the result.

    Romans 10:13

  • Trinidad, Bolivia

    Pray for the Lord to send out workers to the harvestfield of Trinidad.

    Photo from Google Earth

    1. The pictured building is a social club named the “18th of November.” That date is important in Bolivian history because of an 1841 victory against Peru that solidified Bolivia’s sovereignty as a nation. Pray for a member of the club to personally experience the truth of John 8:36: “Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.”

    2. Notice the Coca-Cola emblems that flank the club name on the building. Since WW2, Coca-Cola has successfully spread throughout the world, and is the second most understood term in the world (the first being the word “okay”). The company’s goal is that their product will be “within arm’s reach of desire” to everyone. North Korea and Cuba are the only countries that do not sell Coca-Cola, although it is still smuggled in secretly. Interestingly (since we are praying for a Bolivian city today), in 2012 Bolivia’s foreign minister tried to ban Coca-Cola as an effort to stop Western influence, but was unsuccessful. Like the Coca-Cola company, Christians have a global mission. It is worth taking the time to look up Paul’s words in Acts 17:27, and note how they compare to Coca-Cola’s stated goal. It is sad that more people in the world know about Coca-Cola than know about Jesus Christ. Pray for this to change, and for the gospel to permeate even restricted areas.

    3. Trinidad is the Spanish word for “Trinity.” Pray for Christians in the city to have a clear understanding of the Bible’s teaching on the Trinity.

    Romans 10:13

  • Munich, Germany

    Pray for the Lord to send out workers to the harvestfield of Munich.

    1. Pray for a driver using this roundabout today who feels like life is spent running in circles to hear about the peace of God, and make his peace with God.

    2. Not far from the above location is Deutsch Museum. It holds the impressive status of being the world’s largest science and technology museum. Over 50 fields of science are represented by 28,000 objects. Pray for a Christian student visiting the museum to use the Scriptures as a filter before believing everything he sees.

    3. Pray for a candymaker in Munich to cherish the Book that is sweeter than all his confections.

    Psalm 96:5

  • Everett, USA

    Pray for the Lord to send out workers to the harvestfield of Everett.

    1. Pray for any sets of twins living in Everett, Washington, to come to know / walk with the God Who gave them life and each other.
    2. Pray for babies born around the world today who were / will be named Everett, to one day decide to love and serve Jesus Christ.
    3. Pray for a family in Everitt facing bankruptcy to seek and find the wisdom and provision of God in their situation, and give Him glory.

    Psalm 118:21-26

  • Assamakka, Niger

    Pray for the Lord to send out workers to the harvestfield of Assamakka.

    1. Assamakka is a small desert town in the north of Niger, and the only official crossing point between the two countries of Niger and Algeria (wikipedia). Pray for someone making that border crossing today to also make the border crossing from being under the domain of sin into the Son’s kingdom of light.
    2. The temperature today in Assamakka will reach 89°. Pray for 89 people there to hear the message of the gospel before the end of the year.
    3. Pray for a camel owner in Assamakka to hear one of the stories in the Bible that mentions camels, and be intrigued to find out more about the God of the Bible.

    John 17:17

    This post was originally published on March 14, 2022. Today’s high temperature is 77°. In deciding what location to repost today, Assamakka stood out because of our prayers for Kevin Rideout. His last known location (obtained from his cell phone data an hour after he was kidnapped) was about 53 miles north of Niamey (Niger’s capital). Assamakka is northeast of that location, and only God knows if he has been there in the last three months. Hebrews 13:3 tells us not to forget those who are suffering for Christ. We must continue to pray for the entire situation.

    2. Pray for a Christian kid who struggles with the concepts of mercy and penance to accept practically what he knows is true about God.

    3. Near Copiapo in August of 2010, 33 miners were trapped 2,300 feet underground and 3 miles away from the copper mine’s entrance. Amazingly, they all survived for a record 69 days until being rescued. Pray that any of them who are still alive today will accept Jesus’ offer of eternal rescue.

    Psalm 107:1-3
