NAMB Prayer Requests
We continue to hold fast to the Holy Spirit, as we speak the gospel to lost people around us. Specifically, God has sent us lost people weekly to hear His Word. We pray that God’s Word will take root in their souls, and they will surrender to Him. Also, we are currently walking through a new facility project, where the vision is to gather and worship weekly, then turn the facility into a community outreach resource. Pray that God reveals more of His plan and what He specifically wants us to do with this facility. Pray that we stand firm in Jesus as we do kingdom work for the King!
Pray for the emotional, physical, and spiritual health of our family. Pray for the vision to plant the Luz de las Naciones (Light of the Nations) church; we are currently in the process of forming small groups and developing discipleship. Pray we will find persons of peace and be able to identify the community’s needs and prayer requests. May God open a door for us to meet at a church in D.C. in God’s perfect timing.
Thank you for praying over our church’s needs. “Bear ye one another’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ” (Galatians 6:2). Pray for the Holy Spirit’s power to guide, convict, and transform lives through our outreach. “Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit” (Zechariah 4:6). Pray that hearts be prepared to receive the gospel and respond to Christ. “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few” (Matthew 9:37). Pray for favor with families and authorities in our community. “See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut” (Revelation 3:8). Pray for financial provision, partners, supporters, and all practical needs. “And my God will supply every need of yours” (Philippians 4:19). Pray for our online evangelism. “To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some” (1 Corinthians 9:22). Pray for peace in Minnesota, the United States, and the globe, that Christ may reign in all hearts. “I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, Lord, only makest me dwell in safety” (Psalm 4:8). Pray for our mission to Nigeria this year. Pray for human and financial resources and protection against Islamic terrorism in Nigeria. Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely, I am with you always, to the very end of the age” (Matthew 28:16-20). Pray for the daily provision for our family and the entire congregation. “I was young and now I am old, yet I have never seen the righteous forsaken or their children begging bread” (Psalm 37:25).
Pray for our family in Venezuela. Pray for my health as I recover from prostate cancer. Pray for my wife’s health as she suffers from osteoporosis. Pray that God will provide for our financial needs.
Global, political, and economic conditions are monopolizing people’s attention, leaving them numb to the gospel. Pray they will see that Jesus is the answer to all of those issues. Pray that the Lord will feel compassion for them, because they are distressed and dejected, like sheep without a shepherd (Matthew 9:36).
Pray God will provide our church with a place to worship in the Brandon area as soon as possible so the Vietnamese team can share the gospel with more Vietnamese. Pray for the communities of Tampa, Riverview, and Brandon. Thank you for your prayers.
Pray for my wife’s recovery from cerebellar atrophy. Pray that the Lord would bring healing and strength to her day by day. Pray for the five members currently in our basic discipleship training. Pray that each would complete the course faithfully and grow deeply as followers of Christ. Pray for those who heard the gospel here and have now returned to Korea. Pray that they would be connected to a local church and continue to grow in their faith.
