Items for prayer for the worldwide mission of Christ's Kingdom

As with yesterday, I've been thinking about an upcoming time of prayer for the DMC leadership. Here's a list of starting points for praying for God's world mission:

  • For the training & preparation of long-term missionaries…
  • For the hardened hearts of unbelievers in European nations…
  • For protection for the persecuted church…
  • For the effective labor of short-term mission teams…
  • For the financial support of missionaries during a difficult economy…
  • For the work of Bible translation into new languages…
  • For the training & installation of indigenous pastors…
  • For the healing of cultural wounds through Gospel ministry…
  • For the work among first-nations peoples in the U.S. …
  • For seminaries being established in India, Ukraine, & other countries…
  • For efficiency & effectiveness in the administration of mission boards & organizations…
  • For the families of missionaries to freely support & "let go" their loved ones for God's work…
  • For the church planting efforts by the PCA & other U.S. denominations…
  • For congregations to devote themselves to praying for local, national, & international missions…
  • For the children of pastors & missionaries…
  • For the continued rapid spread of the Gospel in Asia, Africa, & South America…
  • For the revitalization of struggling & unhealthy congregations…
  • For the Bible colleges & seminaries in their work of training…
  • For work in cities, especially urban & inner-city contexts…
  • For the health of marriages for pastors & missionaries…
  • For the safety of those laboring in high-risk / dangerous regions…
  • For receptivity to the Gospel by all who hear it…


Can you think of others?
