Saturday Morning Recap

Psalm 113:3

From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the LORD’s name is to be praised.

1. Mikkeli, Finland: Pray that if the people we prayed for earlier at the fast food restaurant haven’t accepted Jesus yet, that they would very soon.

2. Special Request Updates:

➡️ Thank the Lord for three new people who joined the TGP team this week!

➡️ Malachi (young MK in Brazil with E.coli): He is off all life support and dialysis, praise God! There will be months of recovery ahead as he works to overcome heart and kidney damage, but his ultimate prognosis is very good. Afternoon Update: He was released from the hospital and is at home!

➡️ Urgent medical needs for a faithful worker: After making it back home, surgery was deemed necessary and was successful!

➡️ Michael from Walmart: This is a new request for an unsaved worker going through a difficult time in life. A TGP team member was able to share with Michael what his name means (see yesterday’s post), as an encouragement that the Lord is the best One to help in hard times. Pray that God will put other believers in Michael’s life to further explain the gospel to him, and pray for him to receive Christ.

3. Your Choice:

Happy 2nd Birthday, TGP!

Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore, pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.”

(Matthew 9:37-38)

On March 20, 2021, Targeted Global Prayer featured its first city: Cochabamba, Bolivia. Today is TGP’s second birthday! It is with sincere gratitude that we thank each person who has joined us in praying that Jesus will be known to the peoples of the world. Together, our prayers have come before the throne of God in behalf of those who live where our feet may never travel.

The long term goal of TGP is to have a full 24-hour’s worth of prayer for each day’s featured city. That translates to 1,440 people praying 1 minute every day. Imagine how much could be achieved for the kingdom of God if that much prayer was offered for the given requests!

While that goal is in the future, there is a step toward it you can do now:

Please invite at least one other believer to join TGP.

You have demonstrated that you value prayer and the gospel by signing up to receive daily posts. Please take another step by asking someone else to sign up as well. Every pray-er and every prayer makes a difference!

2. Pray that the Lord will answer our daily prayers for His glory.

3. Thank our Father for allowing us to join Him in the Great Commission.
