Is there more to missionary intercession than “Lord, please bless all the missionaries”?
Much missionary prayer is shallow. Yet prayer is a vital part in the fulfillment of the Lord’s Great Commission. Every Christian should be involved in world evangelism through faithful, biblically based prayer. Here are some suggestions (of ways to pray for a missionary) I think will empower your intercession:
- Love for God. .
- Genuine love for others.
- A deeper relationship with God.
- Vital, supportive home churches and individuals who are willing to pray fervently and faithfully.
- The supply of financial need.
- Cultural adjustment.
- Protection from Satan’s attacks.
- Single life.
- Fruitfulness.
- A sense of urgency.
- Health and strength.
- Specific ministry needs.
It is so exciting to be on the brink of something crazy beautiful. Lately I have learned what a global God we serve!
Hope this list helps you in your prayers for all the missionaries you know=)
