Prayer
Concerns for Missions:
1. That God
would be honored, glorified, praised, exalted, worshipped, and in general
lifted up.
2. That
our goal would be to do #1
.
3. That we would remember
#1 when we are personally attacked or buffeted by Satan or run out of time
or are tired or in general when things get tough.
4. That we would rely on the
Lord for our strength, wisdom, knowledge, details, power, carrying out of
our support of missions, etc. In other words, that our lives and daily walks
with Him would grow to the point of John 3:30.
5. To break the hardness of
our own hearts. That we would be reminded of our own, and very real, sinful
nature and our need of Calvary. That we would be filled by and produce fruits
of the Spirit.
6. That we would have a burden
for souls, locally (Jerusalem), regionally (Judea), nationally (Samaria)
and internationally (the ends of the earth). That this burden would make
us miserable in a holy sense if we neglect, ignore, or despise it.
7. That those in our church
would have the same burden and the same intensity of the burden.
8. That we would be willing
and able to cross personal, traditional, denominational and cultural boundaries
that may hinder the love of Jesus, through us, to other people.
9. That we would look for
and recognize opportunities of evangelism in our daily lives no matter where
we may be. In other words, to behave as "missionaries" on a daily
basis until it becomes habitual.
10.
That those who regularly attend our church would be prepared to learn
about and go and serve as and support missions. Specifically that several
would be called to be missionaries, that many more would be challenged to
give by faith to support missionaries, and that all would learn the importance
of missions in their own lives.
11.
That the Lord would show us the next obvious steps of faith to be
taken to best further his kingdom in obedience to God's will. |
