Psalm 46:10 says, “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.” God is using the Prayer Covenant to exalt his name throughout the world—even throughout restricted nations. We praise God for courageous leaders committed to sharing his message with the most vulnerable.
We received the following story from our leaders in a restricted nation in S. Asia. They have over 1000 leaders within their ministry. One shared their story:
The Children’s Prayer Covenant
I am working among the destitute children and started a small group with 15 which led to starting a Sunday School program. I was searching for quality resources and curriculum in printed form. In November of 2018, I attended your Annual Conference where I first heard about the Prayer Covenant for Children. I was so excited as I had been searching for such a long time. Thank you for providing the needed books for my students. It is exactly what we prayed for. The illustrations are so colourful and engaging but even more important is the teaching system it provides. I immediately introduced it to the children during Sunday School and began systematically teaching the ten themes. It was wonderful because the children enjoyed it so much they started bringing friends with them to class. They were beginning to experience the power of God in their own lives. The book is so interactive. We have 32 children regularly attending Sunday school and learning about God. Children continue to join.
What a blessing to receive these reports, because we know these children are sharing what they learn with their parents as well. God is using them to minister to those in their community with his love and compassion.
Let us pray.
Prayer
Dear Lord Jesus, we thank you for these reports. We thank you that your name, a name above all names in heaven and on earth, is being exalted throughout the world. We thank you for the testimony from our leaders today and we pray your continued anointing upon them. We ask for your protection over them. Continue to encourage and strengthen their hearts as they minister to countless children and families. We thank you that you are adding to their numbers. Be glorified in their midst for the sake of your kingdom. We pray in your matchless name, Amen.
