J17:21 Prayer Initiative

J17:21, Together As One, is an initiative based on John 17:21 that foresees the Texas Conference united and ignited by the Holy Spirit; praying together passionately, powerfully and perpetually for specific and strategic needs in the local churches, schools and throughout the Texas Conference. We believe that as we fulfill the prayer of Jesus in John 17:21 the latter rain will be experienced throughout the 10 areas of the Texas Conference, in our homes, schools and churches. In support of this initiative, the Prayer Ministries team provided a Texas Conference “Prayer Map” that enables individuals to pray for each church, school and entity in the Texas Conference. Interactive Prayer Map The initiative continues with daily, monthly, quarterly and annual resources encouraging us to pray, Together As One.

Prayer holds a sacred spot in the life of the believer and an important place in the experience and mission of the church. Without earnest consistent prayer, the believer has no spiritual power and cannot overcome. Without meaningful heartfelt prayer in the mission and experience of the church, its worship becomes empty and worthless. “Jesus Himself, while He dwelt among men, was often in prayer…. His humanity made prayer a necessity and a privilege. He found comfort and joy in communion with His Father. And if the Saviour of men, the Son of God, felt the need of prayer, how much more should feeble, sinful, mortals feel the necessity of fervent, constant prayer.” Steps to Christ

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,

Please pray for my husband and me. He has left our home, and our marriage is going through a deep crisis. I pray that the Holy Spirit touches his heart, brings him back to God, and, if it is God’s will, restores our marriage and family.

Please also pray for me during this difficult season. Ask God to guide my life according to His will, bless the work of my hands, provide for my needs, and show me the path He has prepared for me. Pray that He gives me wisdom, peace, strength, and faith.

If possible, please include my prayer request in your church prayer group or prayer chain. We are a young family, and this trial has been very difficult for me to bear alone. I truly believe that God is able to work in our lives and that He hears the united prayers of His people. Thank you for standing with us in prayer.

Thank you for your prayers for my husband and me.

With gratitude,
