Mission Prayer (week 3)

The prayer guide for week 3

Sunday 25^th May

Everyone is on a spiritual journey. Some people are moving away from God, some are moving towards him. Our role is to be there when people need a spiritual guide. Who are you helping with their spiritual journey? Has God placed any particular person in your life who you can help? How can you help them take another step towards God? Ask God to speak to you about these things.

Monday 26^th May

Pray through your “Monday list”.

Tuesday 27^th May

Pray for your workplace or school or college setting. If you’re not in such a setting, think about where you spend most of your day and where you connect with people outside of the church.

Wednesday 28^th May

Just walk across the room, Bill Hybels book, outlines a simple strategy for connecting with people far from God. Ask God to show you where you could take this simple idea and apply it on your personal evangelism. (Add any ideas that come to mind to your “Monday list” as necessary.

Thursday 29^th May

Our nearby communities are set to grow significantly beginning this year. Pray for the new developments at the Wixams. Ask God for one house in the first village that will give us a place from which we can reach out to that new community. Pray for the new homes nearing final completion in Cotton End and pray too for the expansion plans in Shortstown. Pray that God will help us to be creative in the ways we connect with our new neighbours.

Friday 30^th May

Take another opportunity to pray for our communities and our neighbours. Pray for Cotton End, Shortstown, Wixams and Wilstead. Pray for your nearest 20 neighbours.

Saturday 31^st May

Acts 2 growth. In Acts 2, as the emerging church committed itself to fellowship, prayer and discipleship, mission seemed to flow naturally from their lifestyle. Pray that we too would experience growth as we seek to follow God wholeheartedly.
