Making prayer a deliberate part of missions strategy
This course makes the case that prayer belongs at the center of overseas missions work, not as a formality tacked onto the front of a trip. It's aimed at anyone preparing to serve overseas who wants to move beyond a tourist-like experience toward outcomes that depend on more than self-reliant planning.
What's covered
- Why strategic prayer matters when entering unfamiliar spiritual territory
- What to actually pray for in a missions context, not just that you should pray
- How to pray with intention and specificity rather than in general terms
- How to weave prayer into an overall missions strategy rather than treating it as separate
Who it's for
Anyone preparing for overseas missions work — first-timers and experienced participants alike — who wants to approach the trip with a deliberate, prayer-centered strategy rather than relying solely on planning and experience.
About this course
Do you sometimes get caught up in the excitement of going overseas on a mission trip and forget that you are truly entering enemy territory? Or perhaps have you done so many overseas trips that you consider yourself experienced enough to get the results you think are possible without being open minded enough to realize that there are divine results that are NOT possible without God's direct intervention?
If you want to go overseas just to have basically have the experience of a tourist, it's not necessary to engage in strategic prayer. If, however, you are being called by God to leave your normal safety net filled with all your self-reliant tools to do something only GOD can do, you must recognize the necessity of strategic prayer.
Participants in this course will be challenged to include prayer as a strategy in missions endeavors, not as an afterthought but as a necessity. They will learn not only why they should be praying but also specifically what they should pray and how they should pray it. As prayer is then incorporated into our missions strategy, God will do things that only He can do. And GOD is the one who will get all the glory!
