Many of us know this in our heads yet it is one of the most difficult things to do well and consistently: pray. I had the privilege of spending several hours with the pastor of flourishing Nepali church and he said that one of the first three teams he developed was an intercessor prayer team. If you have participated in any church planting conferences, this is one of the first things they address.
The unique thing about this pastor's team is that they pray together from 4 am to 6 am everyday. How many of our people are willing to pray at that time in the morning, much less two hours a day?
It is such a great encouragement to me to hear how God is working through economic hardship and government restriction in an overwhelming Hindu country. Make no mistake, the transformation that they are seeing with entire households turning to Christ is fueled by God's people crying out to their Heavenly Father and interceding on behalf of those whose lives have yet to be transformed. May we follow suit.
