Description :When we watch the news, our hearts break for a world in need. But Christians are not powerless to help: we can pray. In fact, thats exactly what God tells us to do: petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving [should] be made for all people (1 Timothy 2 v 1-2). If were serious about reaching our local community and the wider world with the gospel, the first thing well do is pray.
Trouble is, most of us dont know where to start. How do we pray meaningfully for people who we dont know and will probably never meet? Deep down, the issues seem too big, too emotionally disconnected, and were not sure our prayers will really make a difference.
Thats where this little book is designed to help. It will equip you to pray powerful prayers for the world around you—prayers that really change things, because theyre based on Gods word.
Each spread takes a passage of Scripture and suggests 5 things to pray for a local, national, or international issue. Because when we pray in line with Gods priorities as found in his word, our prayers are powerful and effective (James 5 v 16)—and thats a truly thrilling prospect.
Use this book to:
? Guide your prayers during your personal quiet times
? Equip church members to pray meaningfully for your local community and nation
? Help you prepare expressive public intercessions for church
? Fuel your church prayer meeting
? Help you know how to pray in the wake of major world events
