Matthew 9:36-38

“To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:” Ecclesiastes 3:1

After much thought/prayer, I have decided to pause the daily Targeted Global Prayer posts. About 40 minutes goes into preparing each day’s city. At this point of my life, I need to use that time to focus on my relationship with God. I have sincerely appreciated each of you who has prayed for Jesus to be known to the peoples of the world. Please don’t stop praying. Think of one city a day you can pray for, and make up your own three requests. You can also revisit the TGP website, as all the previous posts will stay up. Lord willing, at the beginning of the new year, I will reevaluate re-instating new daily posts.

Have you ever wondered how cities are selected for TGP? Usually, rotating alphabetically through the continents provides the starting point for finding the city of the day. This pattern ensures that places from around the world will be prayed for routinely. Sometimes, cities are chosen based on current events, such as a natural disaster or political calamity. This provides a way to make a difference in places and times where people often acutely realize their need for God’s presence and intervention.

For the remainder of 2022, each month will feature a specific pattern that connects the daily cities. The first post of the month will explain that month’s theme.

July: Prayer for Cities in Countries with Restricted Religious Freedoms

Hebrews 13:3 – “Remember the prisoners as if chained with them – those who are mistreated – since you yourselves are in the body also.” (NKJV)

Overarching prayer requests for July’s cities:

1. Thank God that His Word is never bound (2 Timothy 2:9), and ask Him to make copies of it readily available in these cities.
2. Pray for encouragement, endurance, and effective ministry for Christians living in very difficult places.
3. Pray for unbelievers to hear and understand the gospel, and have the courage to accept it.

As “June Jumpback” concludes, we will revisit the very first city to be featured on TGP: Cochabamba, Bolivia, on March 20, 2021. At that time, only two people had signed up to receive the prayer updates. Thank you to everyone who has joined us since then, and let’s keep praying!

1. Pray for the children of Cochabamba to know that Jesus loves them.

2. Pray for the Holy Spirit to put a gospel witness into the lives of every person who plays on this basketball court today.

3. Pray for whoever put graffiti on the bricks in the picture to be drawn to new life and purpose in Christ.

Matthew 9:35-38

For the month of June, TGP posts will revisit cities and prayer requests from June 2021. Thank you for continuing to intercede for the peoples of the world.

There is no new city featured today on TGP. Please take a minute to pray for any three prayer requests you remember from previous posts. Thank you!
