World-class resources for gospel-centered ministry

Prayer

Pray for the Argentine Bible Society

By

Marcos Buzzelli of the Argentine Bible Society is working with LMW to implement a Spanish version of Lystra Global in Argentina. We are thankful for Marcos and the Argentine Bible Society’s partnership with LMW, and for the talents and skills he and his team are bringing to bear as we move forward to equip pastors with the materials they need – in their native language.

Please pray for Marcos and Rodrigo Guerra as they work on this project, and for the Argentine Bible Society, which is committed to equipping pastors across that land with biblical and theological materials.

Pray for Timothy Olonade, LMW’s Vice President of International Training

Today through February 4, Timothy Olonade will lead a pastor training event in Fugar City, Nigeria, for hundreds of pastors. These men and women are gathering to study the Bible and to learn more about their call, mission and ministry as pastors and leaders in the church.

Christianity is growing throughout Nigeria in spite of severe persecution. Many churches are planted, but quality biblical leadership is critical to their continued success. Please join us in praying for this training session in Nigeria, for the pastors who are participating, for Timothy, and for God’s Holy Spirit to move within His people as His name is proclaimed.

Pray for LMW’s Ministry Partner The Grace Institute

By

 

On January 22, leaders from The Grace Institute travelled to Uganda to serve two groups of pastors who have formed under The Good Shepherd Foundation. Those pastors who received Bibles the last time they visited are invited to a small conference room in the town. The Grace Institute will be teaching them the basics of studying their Bible and also the basics of expository preaching. This intimate small group setting is a sign of maturity within these groups of pastors.

Please pray for these leaders as they gather in Uganda: That God will reveal His Word in amazing ways; that they would be encouraged and enlightened as they continue in pastoral leadership; that the people of Uganda will be blessed as God’s Word spreads.

Pray for LMW’s Ministry Partner WeDevote

By

From underground churches to internet services, the Chinese people are hearing the gospel – and are coming to Christ in unprecedented numbers. A free Chinese Bible App, WeDevote, has over 4 million users throughout China. Developers in China are currently loading the Chinese language version of The Preacher’s Outline & Sermon Bible® onto the app. This will be among the first commentaries available on the app. Developers and new Christians are excited to have the Bible, clearly explained, available at their fingertips.

Please pray for the developers of WeDevote and those working to spread the gospel throughout China: that God will protect them in the midst of persecution; that the Word of God will continue to spread; and that God will open the hearts of those who are hearing about Jesus Christ for the first time – that they might receive him as their Lord and Savior.

Thank you for partnering with us in prayer.

“See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.” Isaiah 43:19

God’s Spirit is alive and moving throughout Nigeria. Tens of thousands of Christians attended this conference in northern Nigeria, where Islamic extremist groups like Boko Haram regularly terrorize local populations. Participants felt God’s presence powerfully as they worshipped and prayed together. God’s Kingdom continues to grow in Nigeria, and all over the world, as the Holy Spirit touches hearts. Thank you God for the increase!

May these Christians in Nigeria – and Christians all over the world – be overwhelmed by God’s peace, love, and grace as we celebrate the birth of Jesus, God’s own Son.
