| An Opportunity to Pray for International Mission Board Missionaries |
Missionaries face many obstacles as they serve in unfamiliar places with unfamiliar customs. Sometimes foreign cultures and languages present challenges most of us might not realize. Even though missionaries spend a lot of time studying the cultures where they will serve and learning new languages, they still face challenges. If you ask missionaries what they need most, they will most likely tell you they need prayer above all else. When we pray for missionaries, we also pray for the people they serve. I was recently presented with an opportunity to pray for International Mission Board missionaries. I'm passing this opportunity on to you.
An Opportunity to Pray for International Mission Board Missionaries
Recently, Emily Hall, a prayer content specialist with the IMB prayer office sent out a message asking other believers to join in prayer for specific missionaries for seven days. Now that I'm signed up, I'll receive information about a specific missionary every day for the next seven days. I'll be able to pray specific prayers for specific missionaries, their families, and the people they serve.
If you would like to join me in praying for IMB missionaries for the next seven days, go here to sign up. After you sign up, you'll be led to a page where you can give financially if you would like to or if you feel led to give, but giving financially is not required to receive information and prayer requests concerning the missionaries.
I hope you'll take this opportunity to pray for International Board Missionaries. The world is in a very fragile state right now. The world needs prayer and the world needs Jesus. I'm reminded of an old song I used to love. Many years ago, when I served for several months in Alaska, we used to sing the song People Need the Lord. Alaska isn't a foreign county with unfamiliar customs, but the message of that song was just as true then and there as it is true in every place and every culture around the world today . . . people need the Lord.
I invite you to listen to the song here. Then, don't forget to go here to sign up to pray for a missionary every day for the next seven days.
Have a wonderful and very blessed Thanksgiving week everyone!
Living Abundantly in Him
