Have you come across an especially good resource for prayer recently? If so, would you let Betty know? She is updating the Brigada Resource List for Intercessors, Prayer Coordinators, and Prayer Mobilizers which we published several years ago. The list includes books, magazines, videos, DVDs, and prayer movements. She would love your input! Just click “Comment” to list your item here and she’ll add it to the resource list that we post here:
(Thanks Betty!)
Hi Betty. This resource has existed for a number of years and can be accessed via website, Facebook or twitter
http://www.prayingforindonesia.com
Daily prayer request. The website contains many articles on the islands and unreached peoples
Thank you, John. I will add this resource.
A few tems come to mind:
Voice of the Martyrs at https://www.persecution.com/
Open Doors at http://www.opendoors.org/, and https://www.opendoorsusa.org/ (maintains a number of prayer items)
Movie: https://www.torturedforchrist.com/ (also offers study guide)
Thank you so much for these items, Randy. I will add them to our list.
Book: Pray the Word by Tiece L. King
Apps:
Pray the Word (Available in several languages)
Prayer Shield: Praying for Sent Ones. Can also be downloaded in PDF format. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.grappetite.prayer.prayershield
Thank you, Grace. I will add these resources to the list!
The Prayer App is an app in progress, waiting funding, that I think will be a technological stunner for today’s missionary. I have been a missionary for 40 plus years and this app is phenomenal. However, not yet released. I wish it was. It is by OneSheep.org (https://onesheep.org/prayerapp/)
Echo Prayer have just updated their app in a nice way too. It will be a blessing for many, though unfortunate (for those of us unsalaried) that it will not scratch where we itch nor be the best for the missionary and his supporters. Good for devotional prayer tool though.
I presume you have Intimacy with God (Joy Dawson), Rees Howells Intercessor (Norman Grubb) and EM Bounds on Prayer on your list?
Terrific, Bryan! Thank you so much. I will check to make sure the Dawson, Grub and Bounds books are on the list, too.
We at Pray4Bosnia are followers of Jesus from around the world who desire to see churches and disciples multiply in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Thank you, Jimmy. I am very family with Pray4Bosnia and will definitely add it to the list.
I appreciate your recommending this site.
Greg Pruett’s book ‘Extreme Prayer: The Impossible Prayers God Promises to Answer’ is a small yet life-changing book that examines Jesus’ open-ended promises on prayer. Comes with study questions for individual or small group use. I have shared this book with many people, who have then used it as a study in their small group.
Definitely needs to be on the list! Thank you for the recommendation, Carole.
