IDEAS FOR PRAYER CARDS

prayerbox2In my post yesterday I shared the vision of having a PRAYER BOX, or PRAYER BOXES to help you and your family pray more effectively. Each individual family will have special people and countries the Lord is laying upon your heart, but here are some of the needs that are currently written on our cards. I cut pieces of white card and write the prayer request on them. These may help to give you some ideas.

PRAY THAT THE GOSPEL WILL BE PREACHED TO ALL NATIONS AND THAT GOD WILL RAISE UP LABORERS TO THESE UNREACHED NATIONS (Matthew 24:14).
To check a map of the unreached countries of the world go to:

PRAY FOR THE COMING MID-TERM ELECTIONS THAT MEN WILL BE ELECTED WHO ARE RIGHTEOUS AND WILL NOT COMPROMISE THE TRUTH.

PRAY FOR A GREAT MOVE OF GOD AMONG THE MUSLIM PEOPLE OF THE WORLD AND THAT THOUSANDS WILL COME TO SALVATION.

PRAY THAT ISRAEL WILL BECOME A "LIGHT TO THE NATIONS" (Isaiah 49:6).

PRAY FOR THE THOUSANDS OF DISPLACED YAZIDI CHRISTIAN FAMILIES IN NORTHERN IRAQ.

PRAY FOR THE PEACE OF JERUSALEM. (Psalm 122:6).

PRAY FOR THE PERSECUTED CHURCH AROUND THE WORLD (Hebrews 13:2).
Got to this link to check out the top 50 countries who are persecuting Christians. You may like to write a card for one country a week to put in your PRAYER BOX so you can gradually pray for them all.

PRAY FOR THE PERSECUTED CHRISTIANS IN NORTH KOREA--THE MOST BRUTAL REGIME IN THE WORLD AGAINST CHRISTIANS--up to 60,000 in prison for their faith (Hebrews 13:2).

PRAY THAT GOD WILL THRUST FORTH LABORERS INTO HIS HARVEST FIELD (Matthew 9:37, 38).

PRAY FOR THE MUSLIM PEOPLE IN USA, THAT THEY WILL COME TO SALVATION AND THAT MANY LABORERS WILL BE RAISED UP TO WITNESS TO THEM.

PRAY THAT THE TERRORIST GROUPS WHICH ARE RISING UP MORE AND MORE WILL BE PUT DOWN. ACCORDING TO THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE THERE ARE NOW 59 DESIGNATED TERRORIST GROUPS IN THE WORLD, INCLUDING the most well-known--ISIS, Al-Qaeda, Hamas, Boko Haram, and Muslim Brotherhood.

PRAY THAT THE BOKO HARAM WILL BE BROUGHT DOWN AND THEIR KILLING AND KIDNAPPING OF CHRISTIANS WILL BE STOPPED.

PRAY THAT THE TERRORIST GROUP, ISIS WILL BE DEFEATED. PRAY AGAINST THEIR EVIL BRUTALITY-BEHEADINGS, RAPINGS, BURYING ALIVE, AND OTHER UNBELIEVABLE CRUELTIES (You won't be able to share these with young children).

PRAY AGAINST THE SEX TRAFFICKING IN THE WORLD AND THAT YOUNG GIRLS AND TEENS WILL BE DELIVERED FROM THIS TERRIBLE LIFE.

PRAY THAT JERUSALEM WILL BECOME A "PRAISE IN THE EARTH" (Isaiah 62:6-8).

PRAY AGAINST THE DECEPTION OF THE PALESTINIAN PROPAGANDA. PRAY THAT THE MEDIA WILL WAKE UP TO THE TRUTH.

PRAY THAT ABORTION CLINICS WILL BE CLOSED DOWN. PRAY THAT MOTHERS WILL BE SAVED FROM HAVING AN ABORTION.

PRAY FOR THE TURNING OF THE HEARTS OF FATHERS AND MOTHERS TO CHILDREN. PRAY FOR GOD'S ANOINTING UPON ABOVE RUBIES AND THAT GOD WILL OPEN UP GREATER DOORS FOR THE MESSAGE TO GO OUT.

PRAY FOR MISSION ORGANIZATIONS WHO ARE SEEKING TO TAKE THE GOSPEL TO THE MUSLIM PEOPLE

PRAY FOR THE BRICK YARD PEOPLE OF VARANASI AND INDIA WHO ARE SLAVES TO THEIR EMPLOYERS. PRAY FOR THE GOSPEL TO COME TO THEM AND FOR THEM TO BE DELIVERED.
To find out more about them go to: http://www.tellasia.org/blog/brick-yard-children-find-hope.html

Plus we pray for missionaries, organizations, and other needs that are personally known to us. You will have specific needs that you will want to pray for also.

I pray that your daily prayer times will become more meaningful as you give specific needs to your family to pray for. Children need to be steered in how to pray for the needs of the world. Give them a vision for prayer while they are young.

When you have visitors, include them in your PRAYER BOX time also. It will give them a vision to do it in their home too.
