Ordinary Moments: Small Prayers That Can Change The WorldExemplo
Every Prayer Matters
The world can often feel vast. And sometimes praying to God can feel overwhelming—like you don’t even know where to start.
To make this big world feel just a little smaller, think about the personal connections you have to places and people across the globe. Maybe think about the place where your family is from or where a friend lives. Maybe there’s a region you’ve always been interested in or a country you keep hearing about in the news.
No matter what God puts on your heart, you can use these points to guide your bedtime prayer:
- Pray that communities would recognize God’s love for their language and culture.
- Ask God to give communities a desire to see the Bible translated into their language.
- Lift up missionaries helping local translation projects.
- Ask God to prepare the hearts of those still waiting for the Scriptures in their language.
- Pray that when a Bible translation project has been completed, the people would engage with God’s Word on a daily basis.
It’s easy to get wrapped up in the chaos and mess of our schedules. Commitments pile up. Stress levels rise. But we can pray in any place at any time—and your prayers matter! James 5:16 reminds us that “the earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results” (NLT).
Ultimately, it’s God who changes people’s hearts through His Word. But we can partner with Him in prayer. So as you rush through your day completing tasks and checking things off your list, bring meaning to your routine by praying for people around the world!
After all, every prayer matters.
Things to Ponder:
- What regions, countries or communities do you feel called to specifically pray for?
- Think about a time you’ve felt discouraged while praying and waiting for something to happen. How did you bring those feelings to God?
- What intentional steps are you taking to make prayer part of your daily life?
