Prayer Fuel

Each Friday, we are praying for one of the other 110 most unreached cities in the world. Pray for an Acts 19 movement to reach every unreached people and place in Kanpur, India and the surrounding regions.

Kanpur is the capital city of the Uttar Pradesh state in northern India. The metropolis is the second-most populous city in the state and is an important road, rail, and industrial hub. India, occupying the greater part of South Asia, is the second-most populous country after China. India's government is a constitutional republic representing a highly diverse population with thousands of ethnic groups, hundreds of languages, and a complex caste system.

The nation has a convoluted social and cultural history, featuring a rich intellectual life in the sciences, arts, and religious tradition. After gaining independence from the British in 1947, India split from the predominantly Muslim regions of present-day Pakistan and Bangladesh. Despite earnest attempts to unify the country, tensions between rival ethnic groups and religious sects, rich and poor, have further divided the nation.

Burdening the country further, India has more abandoned children than any nation, with over 30 million orphans wandering bustling streets and railway stations. This cultural dynamism creates immense challenges for the central government but an enormous opportunity for the church of India to step into the harvest fields moved with compassion and great expectation.

Prayer Emphasis

• Pray for the launch of many community centers which will focus on planting church by taking care of women, "street kids," and the poor and destitute of the city. Pray for the leaders to have courage, wisdom, and supernatural protection.
• Pray for a mighty movement of prayer to be birthed in Kanpur that multiplies throughout the country.
• Pray for followers of Jesus to walk in the power of the Spirit.
