Top Priority Prayer Needs
* That our internet pages be holy, untainted by human pride, ignorance or anything less than what God wants. That visiting the webpages will be entering into God's presence - a divine encounter. That God supernaturally draw people to them and then cause visitors to immediately focus upon those parts that will most powerfully speak to their need. That the Spirit of God do a powerful work in each visitor's heart as they read - convicting, challenging, illuminating, inspiring, encouraging, or whatever is that person's most pressing need. That even as they read, many experience the power of God on them to a degree they have never before experienced. That vast numbers of hurting Christians be effectively ministered to and released into ministry. That every person visiting the sites fall more in love with Jesus, long to serve him with greater devotion and be more empowered to do so. That this experience have a life-changing effect upon them.
* That the deception of Satan be broken in the hearts of unbelievers. That they be granted divine revelation. That they see the beauty, majesty, power, holiness, goodness and love of God with such clarity that they loathe themselves for their indifference or bitterness toward him and fall in love with their Saviour. That there be literally thousands of conversions.
* That God raise up huge numbers of translators, who are anointed for the task and know God's calling. That no one who isn't God's choice will get involved in it. That each language be completed in God's time.
* That the easy English version be empowered by God - that every word be divinely chosen for greatest effectiveness and that it be read by the vast number of people who, by reason of their limited English skills, need it.
* That God raise up people of his choice to create graphics filled with his creativity, skill and power. That the entire webpage design be of God. That it be effective across as many different internet platforms as possible.
* That large numbers of people find great fulfillment by being involved in the internet work the Lord has given us. That they feel the call of God and that they see it as their ministry - not merely assisting someone else's ministry. That an abundance of people be raised up for each facet of the work - Prayer Net, answering e-mail, etc., - especially those who can find fulfillment in this to an extent that they can't in other ministries, such as those who are housebound due to disabilities.
* That divine protection be upon the sites and all the material on them. That the sites not be lost through providers going out of business, or whatever, or files be lost or time lost by providers being off line due to computer failure, etc. That God prevent radicals (or pranksters) from harming the sites.
* The Lord raise up people with home page skills to improve webpage design, get more of my writings on to the web and perform other helpful tasks.
* That I be released into full time ministry in God's perfect time. That I not go ahead of God, or drag my feet. That nothing (eg my lack of faith or whatever) other than God's divine purpose keep me away from going full time.
* That we think big. That we think God's thoughts and move in the realm of the humanly impossible. That through aggressive prayer, a bigger and bigger slice of the internet become Christ's. That God be in control of trends such as commercialisation, moves by media Mongols, government interference (especially in countries that already restrict access to the gospel) etc that could limit the effectiveness of the ministry the Lord has entrusted to us. That ungodly and anti-Christian sites collapse either physically, or in popularity. That Christians around the world use the internet for the glory of God rather than merely promoting their own organisation or ego. That Christian sites be modified to increase to the maximum their effectiveness in reaching non-Christians, rather than merely appealing to Christians. That there be great co-operation amongst Christians, with no unhealthy sense of rivalry. That skills, insight etc be freely shared. That we be used of the Lord to improve the quality and effectiveness of other sites and ministries.
* That the Lord take full control of who e-mails us for prayer, counselling etc. That no e-mails go astray, have a wrong return address etc. That all who should contact us do so, and no others. That we respond to these opportunities in the exact way God wants.
* That those without internet access be effectively ministered to. For example that hard copies be widely distributed by creative means (eg faxes, etc.) That the files go beyond the web to bulletin boards, disk distribution, CD ROMS, etc. That mini-prayer chains be established all over the world by those with internet access phoning etc those who don't have access.
* That all the webpages be fully promoted on all major internet
search engines, indexes etc and be worded and designed with great
wisdom and creativity so as to appeal to those most needing to
visit the pages. That the number of links simply explode by miraculous
acts of God, especially the number of links placed on secular
webpages. That the links be predominant, and that the Spirit of
God make them even more predominant in the minds of those who
most need to visit the pages. That we be led of God as to whether
we should get involved in paid advertising, and advertising off
the web in magazines, etc.
Join Our Prayer Team
I'd love for you to be on our Prayer Net mailing list. Many have written to say what a blessing it has been to them just to pray for the requests. They are proving the truth of Jesus' teaching that it truly is more blessed to give than to receive. And we get some exciting answers as well!
We average about one e-mail per day, with several requests and praise points. It's a great way to keep in touch with the exciting things the Lord is doing in this ministry. You'd be under no expectation to even read every E-mail, much less pray for every request. We fully recognize our team members' differing capacities and time restraints, but my feeling is that even if you were to offer only one 5 second prayer, it's infinitely better than none! If you'd like to join us, just let me know.
