Fundamental to Effective Church Planting or any successful preaching adventure is a Prayer Foundation. Jesus asked us to pray the Lord of the Harvest to send laborers into the harvest field. Luke 10:1-2, NIV.
“He told them, "The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.”
Text: Acts 16:1-40; Acts 13:14,42-44 (PAUL IN THE SYNAGOGUE but far away from Jewish land; and in a Roman Colony).
According to Acts 16:1-40, below are 10 Things to pray about:
Pray for the Release of Apostolic Teams; totally united in spirit (Acts 16:6)
Pray for Flexibility to adapt to culture but not be conformed to the world system (Acts 16: 3).
Pray for Sensitivity to the Holy Spirit (Acts 16:6,7). To know where the Holy Spirit is not asking us to go. Some places may not be ripe yet (and then the next moment they are...!
