“Except the Lord build a house, they labor in vain that build it:
except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain”.
Psalm 127:1.
Precious one, God bless you for the desire to ask the Lord of the
harvest to send labourers to His harvest field and also to strengthen
those already laboring in the fields of souls. For specific prayer
needs of the people groups among whom we work (Dagomba, Chakali,
Mamprusi, Kantosi, Chala), we will please encourage you to visit the
Joshua Project website (joshuaproject.net) for more details.
The following are some of the ways you can be praying for EFM missionaries. Please pray:
That as a team, we will make Jesus the focus of all we do; that we will not seek man’s vain glory, but our service will bring Jesus all the glory due Him.
That we will be diligent and faithful in our study, practice, and communication of God’s everlasting word of truth, with discernment. 2 Tim 2:15
That the team can serve the people groups with humility as Christ, who came to serve and not to be served. Matt 20:28, Phil 2.
That we will not lose sight of the personal purity of our hearts,
which attracts the very presence of God; that we may never stop
being hungry and thirsty for the righteousness of God. Matt 5:6.
As in Acts 4:29, that the Lord will grant us the boldness to speak
God’s word.
For the spirit of unity, both among members of the EFM mission team
and between the team and members of the communities we work in so
that individuals within the people groups will know and experience
God’s love, forgiveness, and the peace that comes through Jesus
Christ.
For God’s protection over all the EFM messengers of Yahweh’s
gospel of salvation as we travel and go about the work, that we will
be covered by the precious blood of Jesus. Also, for journey mercies
in all our travels.
