The Importance of Praying for Leaders
March is a very busy month for Jewish Voice Ministries, especially in Africa. Right now, we are completing our Southern Ethiopia Medical Outreach. Immediately after it, we have a large leadership event in Ethiopia, followed by another, smaller one in Zimbabwe.
We appreciate your prayers, especially for all the leaders involved. As you intercede for leaders, your prayers also influence their communities and those they lead.
Here is how you can pray.
Medical Outreach in Southern Ethiopia
- Pray for the last day (tomorrow), for those who have been leading, and pray rear guard prayers, covering the Outreach’s fruitfulness
- Pray for the congregational leaders who will conduct follow-up after this event. May it be timely and effective as they make connections with those who have expressed interest in learning more about Yeshua (Jesus)
- Pray for the Lord to plant a congregation in this area, as there is none. Pray He will also appoint and anoint those who will lead it
Ethiopia Leadership Event
- Pray for powerful messages and ministry at this event
- Include Rabbi Jonathan Bernis and other speakers in your prayers as they minister to over 2,000 leaders
- Pray for the Holy Spirit’s power and amazing Kingdom unity among the leaders attending — about 10 percent of whom will be Messianic Jewish, while the others will be leaders from Christian churches
Zimbabwe Leadership Event
- Pray for a smaller but important leadership event in Zimbabwe. May those attending be built up and encouraged as leaders and strengthened as disciples and disciple-makers
Let’s Pray
Lord, You are the Good Shepherd, and throughout Scripture, You teach and give examples of good leadership. Please bless those leading each of these events and those attending. May each one be strengthened in their leadership and encouraged in their roles and spheres of influence. You are building Your body of Jewish Believers and their neighbors in Africa, and we bless You for how You will grow and use these leaders. In Yeshua’s name, Amen.
