10 ways to pray for your local church

Have you ever sat down to pray for your church or the Big C church and then realized you didn’t know how or what to pray for? We reached out to some pastors in our network to hear from them exactly how you can be praying!

  1. Pray for your Pastor’s Wife

    There are a lot of expectations put on pastor’s wives of what their role in the church should look like, it can put a lot of pressure and strain on their marriage.

  2. Pray for your Pastor’s Confidence

    It’s very easy for pastors to be compared to big mega-church pastors for not doing what they are doing. Pray that your pastor would be spending time alone with the lord and have the confidence to follow the Lord’s leading, not just follow what everyone else is doing.

  3. The church to be marked by Love

  4. Unity

    For God’s people to come together. Let’s not let Coronavirus, Politics, Racial Injustice tear us apart, but instead bring us closer as a body. Let’s take time to listen to one another and have compassion.

  5. For people not to live in fear

  6. For people to feel the void in their heart and turn to Jesus

  7. For those that have said Yes to Jesus to lean in to him

  8. For those that have not to find him, that they would find Christian community where they can ask questions and seek knowledge

  9. That God would do such awesome things in the church, He is the only one who could get credit for them

  10. Protection against spiritual enemies that hinder people’s walk with the Lord
