True Laborers: Areas Hit by Earthquakes/Wars/Floods/Typhoons: Edify Church, Widows, Orphans, Prepare Jn 14:29 1 Cor 14:1-3 1 Tim 1:5 Matt 9:35-38...

Father, raise up, love, disciple and send forth laborers into areas like Ukraine, Russia, Iran, Venezuela, Columbia, Philippines, Nepal and other areas impacted by famine, wars, earthquakes, persecution, FLOODS (and prepare the next areas to be impacted in advance, John 14:29, Gen 41:25-48 Genesis 41:25–48 ). Help them in their worship, love, study, preaching, and teaching. Raise up men and women, Joel 2:28-29, Acts 2:17-18, with faith like ###, and ###, ###, ### and ###, ### and ###, ###, ###, ### and ###, et cetera, to found missions, orphanages, James 1:27, and schools that teach TRUE doctrine, 1 Tim 4:16, and whose GOAL is LOVE from a PURE HEART, a Good CONSCIENCE and a SINCERE FAITH, 1 Tim 1:5. Please guard young and old alike, indeed all believers, from deception, Matt 24:4, wrongdoing, fear and lies, Zeph 3:13, doing wrong, 2 Cor 13:7, evil people and imposters in these last days, 2 Tim 3:13, from those that "profess to know God but by their deeds deny Him," Tit 1:16, and help them turn away from such that have a "form of godliness but deny it's power," 2 Tim 3:5. Strengthen the true believers in CHRIST to study and do their diligence to learn and accurately handle Your Word, 2 Tim 2:15, and keep them from the source of all lies, the devil, John 8:44, Gen 3:1-15, and ancient serpent, Rev 12:9, who spews unholy water, Rev 12:12, the only antidote is the washing of the sanctifying Word of Christ, John 13:10, John 15:3, John 17:17, Eph 5:26-27, and overcoming him by The Blood of The Lamb, the word of their testimony, and being so confident of eternal life, the glory of suffering and the resurrection of the righteous they do not make their earthly life an idol, Rev 12:11. Do not let the gates of hell be able to restrain the church You build there or anywhere else in the world, Matt 16:18. Help the church in all nations make herself ready by the righteous acts of the ones Jesus made holy, Rev 19:7-8. Do not take us out of the world, but let the Gospel go forth purely and boldly through us, Eph 6:18-19, be received, 2 Thes 3:1, and be kept from evil and unbelieving people, 2 Thes 3:2, and the source of all murder, lies, falsehood, deception and evil himself, Matt 6:13, John 17:15, 2 Thes 3:3. Thank You in Jesus' Name.

We join you in this burden for the harvest and for the precious souls in nations shaken by war, earthquake, flood, famine and persecution, and we say amen to your cry for true laborers.

We are moved by how aligned this prayer is with the heart of our Lord, for He looked on the multitudes with compassion and said, Then he said to his disciples, The harvest indeed is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Pray therefore that the Lord of the harvest will send out laborers into his harvest. Matthew 9:37-38. We agree together that the Lord would do this very thing in Ukraine, Russia, Iran, Venezuela, Colombia, the Philippines, Nepal and every other place that has been devastated or will yet be shaken, and that He would even prepare laborers in advance as You told us, I have told you before it happens so that, when it happens, you may believe. John 14:29, just as You gave wisdom to Joseph to prepare in abundance for famine to come. Genesis 41:25-48.

We love your desire that missions, orphanages and schools would be founded not on mere activity but on pure and undefiled religion, for Pure religion and undefiled before our God and Father is this, to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained by the world. James 1:27, and that their goal would be love from a pure heart, a good conscience, and sincere faith. 1 Timothy 1:5, with true doctrine guarded, Pay attention to yourself and to your teaching. Continue in these things, for in doing this you will save both yourself and those who hear you. 1 Timothy 4:16.

We pray together now.

Father, in the name of Jesus Christ we come before Your throne and ask You to raise up, love, disciple and send forth faithful laborers into these hard places. Pour out Your Spirit upon sons and daughters as You promised, It will happen afterward, that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh and your sons and your daughters will prophesy. Joel 2:28, and as fulfilled, In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh. Your sons and your daughters will prophesy. Acts 2:17. Give them faith that endures, love that labors, and boldness in worship, study, preaching and teaching. Establish through them churches that You Yourself build, for we stand on Your promise that the gates of Hades will not prevail against it. Matthew 16:18, and make Your Bride ready, clothed in fine linen, bright and pure, for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints. Revelation 19:8.

We ask You to guard young and old alike from deception, for Jesus warned, Be careful that no one leads you astray. Matthew 24:4, and from those having a form of godliness but denying its power, turn away from these. 2 Timothy 3:5, and from evil men and impostors who will proceed from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. 2 Timothy 3:13, and from those who profess that they know God, but by their deeds they deny him. Titus 1:16. Strengthen true believers to give diligence to present themselves approved by God, a workman who does not need to be ashamed, properly handling the Word of Truth. 2 Timothy 2:15, and sanctify them in Your truth, for Your word is truth. John 17:17, washing them by the Word and keeping them from the evil one, for You are faithful, who will establish and guard from the evil one. 2 Thessalonians 3:3.

Father, do not take them out of the world but keep them from evil. John 17:15. Let the gospel go forth purely and boldly through them, praying at all times with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and being watchful to this end in all perseverance. Ephesians 6:18, that the word of the Lord may run and be glorified. 2 Thessalonians 3:1, and be delivered from unreasonable and evil men. 2 Thessalonians 3:2, overcoming the accuser by the blood of the Lamb, by the word of their testimony, and because they did not love their life even to death. Revelation 12:11.

We thank You that You hear us when we pray in Jesus name, and we trust You to answer for Your glory and for the edifying of Your church among the widows, orphans and all who suffer. Let Your will be done and let Your name be made known in every nation. Amen.

We hear the weight you are carrying for so many places at once, and the love behind this prayer for laborers, for churches to be strengthened, and for widows and orphans to be cared for well. It is a big, holy burden to hold Ukraine, Russia, Iran, Venezuela, Colombia, the Philippines, Nepal and other hard hit regions before the Lord together, and we are grateful to join you in it.

What encourages us in your prayer is the desire not just for help to arrive, but for healthy, prepared workers who will stay rooted in worship, in the Word, and in love that comes from a pure heart. That kind of work takes time and support. Those who go need preparation before they go, steady care while they are there, and space to rest and be renewed afterward. The same is true for those of us praying and sending from home.

One simple way we can keep this from feeling overwhelming is to give it focus. This week perhaps choose one or two of the regions you named and pray daily for the local believers there by name if you know them, or for a trustworthy mission or orphan care work you already know is teaching faithfully. Staying connected to your own local church as you pray also helps keep your heart guarded and encouraged.

Father, we lift these nations and the workers You are raising up for them. Provide for widows and orphans, strengthen pastors and teachers, protect Your people from deception and harm, and let the gospel go forward with clarity and courage. Keep those who serve healthy in body, mind and spirit, and make Your church ready and faithful. In Jesus' name, amen.

Father, humbly ask for Your healing power. Please meet deepest spiritual, physical, emotional, financial needs according to Your Will and timing in Jesus Name Amen
"May the Lord bless you and protect you. May the Lord smile on you and be gracious to you. May the Lord show you his favor and give you his peace." Numbers 6:24-26

 

[Spurgeon]

Your prayer for true laborers in fields scarred by earthquake and war and flood and tempest has been laid to heart with thankfulness, and we join you in pleading the promise of our Lord.

You have done well to remember that the harvest truly is plenteous but the laborers are few, and that our first duty is to pray the Lord of the harvest that He will thrust forth laborers into His harvest. The need you name in Ukraine and Russia, in Iran and Venezuela and Colombia, in the Philippines and Nepal and in every place where famine and persecution and calamity have broken in, is indeed great. The fields are white already to harvest, and now is the day and now is the hour. We cannot reap without laborers, and we cannot have laborers except the Lord of the harvest send them.

We take comfort that the Church is God's own farm. If God were to leave the Church she would become a howling wilderness, but she shall not come to such an end, for omnipotent power is as necessary to keep the fields under cultivation as to reclaim them at the first. He who has sown so plentifully expects a harvest, a harvest of obedience and holiness and usefulness and praise, and He will preserve His Church unto Himself and give the increase. Let us therefore expect a harvest and look for it and pray for it with importunity.

We join you in asking the Lord to raise up men and women upon whom His Spirit is poured, sons and daughters who shall prophesy and declare His Word, who will love and study and preach and teach with fidelity. May He establish among those shaken nations missions and schools and works of mercy that care for widows and orphans in their affliction, as pure religion requires, and that keep themselves unspotted from the world. May those works teach true doctrine and watch over it, for the goal of our instruction is love from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith.

We pray also as you have prayed that young and old alike may be guarded from deception, from those who have a form of godliness but deny its power, and from those who profess to know God but by their deeds deny Him. In these last days when evil men and impostors will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived, may the true believers be strengthened to do their diligence and to rightly handle the word of truth, to be washed by the sanctifying Word of Christ and to overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of their testimony, not making this earthly life an idol but rejoicing in the hope of being forever with the Lord.

We ask that the gates of hell shall not prevail against the Church which Christ builds in every nation, and that the Gospel may go forth purely and boldly and be received, and that His people may be delivered from evil men and from the evil one, for the Lord is faithful and He will strengthen and guard His own. May the Church make herself ready by the righteous acts of those whom Jesus has made holy, looking for that greater harvest home when the reapers shall rejoice together with the harvested ones before God with the joy of harvest.

We will continue to pray with you that God would prepare His people beforehand as He prepared Joseph in Egypt to store up in time of plenty against the time of want, and that He would grant faith to believe His Word before it comes to pass. May the Lord grant you and all who labor in prayer the joy of seeing sheaves gathered for His garner, to His glory alone.

We commend you and all these afflicted fields to Him who hears prayer, in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, who alone is our salvation.
