In disciple making movements we emphasize that Church ISN'T a building or a once a week event space. Church IS a group of disciples who have covenanted together to follow Jesus and obey his commands. The church supports one another throughout the week, living life together, doing ministry together and interacting on a deeper level, like a healthy family.
"So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God…"
We pray for every believer in Istanbul and Turkey, that they would know they belong to Your family, the church. We pray for strong relationships and loyalty to define the Turkish church, that they would work together as family, care for one another, and reach out to those who have not yet heard the Good News.
Use these resources to help pray specifically each day.
Disciplemaking Principle: Understand the Urgency of the Task Jesus tells his disciples that we will not know the hour in which he will return, but that we should always be ready. Disciple Making Movements focus on the urgency of the task at hand - all peoples, nations, tribes and languages hearing the good news of Christ.
ReadPsalm 66:4-7 "Everything on earth will worship you; they will sing your praises, shouting your name in glorious songs.

For by his great power he rules forever. He watches every movement of the nations; let no rebel rise in defiance."
