Acts 1:8: “…you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the
ends of the earth”
ForestView Global Missions Vision :
- To see People Groups worldwide being transformed by the love of Christ.
- To see the ForestView Community passionate for the nations, living and giving generously to
fulfill the Great Commission.
God is doing amazing things around the world through His people who have courageously stepped out
in obedience to His call. The enemy of our souls is not happy with the growth of God’s work and does
not tire from trying to hinder those who are in the front lines. So, let us give particular attention for the
missionaries in our prayers today, some ideas below (try praying the scriptures).
- For victory in the daily struggles with trust, strength, humility, stress, patience, relationships and
much more…. Proverbs 3: 5-6 - For discernment and wisdom in dealing with decisions and situations. Ephesians 5: 15-16
- For protection from discouragement. Philippians 4: 6-7
- For persistence, endurance and stamina for fruitful ministry. Philippians 3: 4
- For wisdom in setting priorities, God/ family time/ministry task -to reach a good balanced Christ
centered life. 2 Corinthians 9:8 - For patience in dealing with official paperwork and grace towards difficult officials. Colossians 4:6
