KEEP IT SIMPLE TO MULTIPLY

Pray that disciple makers would go out in humility and simplicity, sowing the Word in ways that are easily reproducible among new believers.

VERSE OF THE WEEK:

"But the seed falling on good soil refers to someone who hears the word and understands it. This is the one who produces a crop, yielding a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown.” —MATT 13:23

UNREACHED PEOPLE FOCUS: Sunday - Dar Hamid Monday - Baggara, Messiria

PRAYER FOR FIELD TEAM:Coming King, Your Word says in Matthew 24:42, "Watch therefore, for you don't know in what hour your Lord comes." You have promised to return, and You call Your people to live awake, ready, and full of hope.

Today we lift up the believers across Israel. Amid comfort, distraction, and endless noise, may they pursue readiness for Your return. Wake the global Church from spiritual sleep, and may Your people live with eternity in view rather than the pull of the moment. Give courage to those who feel the culture turning against their faith and let the hope of Your coming reorder their priorities.

Stir believers to share the Gospel while there is still time. May churches trade comfort for mission and may many who are numb to God be awakened to the nearness of Christ's return. Renew a longing for Jesus Himself.

Father, keep us watchful and faithful until He comes. We look forward to the day when believers from across Israel join with every nation to welcome the King whose return will make all things new. In Jesus' name, Amen.

Podcast: Week 39 Day 2

Prayer for Field Team: God of Truth, Your Word says in Psalm 119:105, "Your word is a lamp for my feet and a light for my path." Thank You for speaking to us, and for the light Your Word provides when the way forward seems unclear. You have never left Your people to walk alone.

Today, we remember our sister Anjali. Open the Scriptures to her in fresh ways, and may Your voice become familiar in the quiet moments of each day. Give her grace when she is misunderstood for following Jesus. Keep her gentle, faithful, and close to Your heart. A lamp is enough when God is leading the next step.

Bless the churches throughout India. Strengthen pastors serving in villages and cities and encourage parents who faithfully teach their children the story of Christ. Raise up young disciples who love Your Word and gladly share it with others.

Father, write Your truth upon our hearts. Until every language has heard the Good News of Jesus, keep Your Church faithful. We long for the day when believers from India worship beside every nation before the throne of the Lamb. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Devotion: Calmed and Quieted– Ps. 131:1-2

Podcast: Week 39 Day 3

Prayer for Field Team: Lord God, please help Pastor Ramesh Giri and his congregation recover from the flood that damaged their church in Nukakot, Nepal. The work ahead may feel daunting, so give them wisdom to know where to begin and strength to keep going. Provide the funds, materials, skilled hands, and encouragement they need to rebuild.

Psalm 18:2 says, "The LORD is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge; my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower." Be their firm foundation when so much around them feels uncertain. Lead them to trustworthy help, protect them as they work, and keep their faith from becoming discouraged. Let Pastor Ramesh see Your provision in practical, unmistakable ways, and let the restored church remain a place of refuge for the whole community. In the name of Jesus, Amen.

Thursday

Devotion: Seek First – Mat. 6:33

Podcast: Week 39 Day 4

Prayer for Field Team: God Who Goes Before Us, Your Word reminds us in Genesis 50:20 that what was meant for harm, You intended for good. Just as Joseph couldn't see the full picture while in prison, we trust that You're working in ways beyond our understanding.

Today, we lift up our brother Samuel. Stand with him as he serves You faithfully. Comfort those who are grieving, and strengthen pastors who continue to preach in communities touched by violence. Hold the children who have lost fathers, and carry every widow whose tears are known only to You. You're writing a story we can't fully read today.

Bless the churches across Nigeria. Heal hearts wounded by hatred, and raise up believers whose forgiveness points others to Jesus. May those who once sought to destroy the Church become faithful servants of the Savior they once opposed.

Father, keep us from judging Your work too soon. We trust the Author even when we don't understand the story. Bring us to the day when believers from Nigeria join every nation around the throne, giving thanks to the Lamb who never wastes a moment of faithfulness. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

GLOBAL CITY FOCUS (2): DAR ES SALAM, Tanzania - Pray for the historic church to reach beyond their walls and homes to impact their neighbors.

Podcast: Week 39 Day 5

Prayer for Field Team: Father, we come before You today, lifting up our sister Mariam in Islamabad, Pakistan. She carries the burden of discipling mothers and young women into Your Kingdom. We ask You to draw near to her. In moments when she feels alone or unseen, remind her that You are the God who sees.

Your Word says in Isaiah 41:10, "Fear not, for I am with you," and assures us of Your strength. May Mariam find solace in these words. Strengthen her heart with quiet courage that stands firm against fear. Let those around her be marked by kindness that serves as a witness to Christ's love. We also pray for the believers throughout Pakistan. Grant wisdom to those leading Your Church there. And may Your presence be a constant source of comfort and guidance for them all. In the name of Jesus, Amen.

GLOBAL CITY FOCUS (2): DAR ES SALAM, Tanzania - 

Unreached People Group: Friday - Shirazi Saturday - Swahili, Tumbatu

Prayer for the workers - Saturday: Lord God, we come before You with hearts full of gratitude for our brother Reza and the responsibilities he carries for house churches across Mashhad, Iran. We ask that You protect and fill every home where believers gather with Your peace, wisdom, and joy. As they open the Scriptures together, may each gathering lead many to discover that Jesus is alive and calling them.

Your Word says in John 14:27, "Peace I leave with you," and "My peace I give to you." Let this promise rest over the house churches in Iran. Grant them a peace that remains unshaken by threats or imprisonment. Strengthen the believers' hearts so they stand firm in faith even when challenged. Look with mercy on those who question, threaten, or imprison Your people. Turn their hearts toward compassion and understanding. May Reza find rest in You, knowing You are his refuge and strength. Let the work of these pastors bear fruit that lasts, drawing more people into Your love. In the name of Jesus, Amen.
