"Shout joyful praises to God, all the earth! Sing about the glory of his name! Tell the world how glorious he is.
Say to God, “How awesome are your deeds! Your enemies cringe before your mighty power.
Everything on earth will worship you; they will sing your praises, shouting your name in glorious songs.”
Turkey is a nation mixed with culture from the East and the West. The people here are hospitable, kind and generous, but they do not know the saving power of Jesus.
Five strategic cities in Turkey have been selected for us to advocate for. Why were these cities chosen? Because they are gathering places for some of the least reached peoples in Turkey. The theory is, when those who live in these cities from various people groups come to know Jesus, they will be able to take the gospel back to their hometowns and peoples more easily than an outside catalyst.
We invite you to pray alongside us for a disciple making movement to begin in ALL FIVE strategic cities! This month pray for each of these cities: Istanbul, Antalya, Ankara, Diyarbakir, and Gaziantep.
Lord, nothing can compare with the beauty and creativity of your marvelous works. It's amazing that we can know you and behold your beauty. You alone deserve our praise. May all the peoples of Turkey praise you, O God, may every unreached people group here know your name! Jesus, we ask for more discovery bible studies to begin this month. May your disciple makers utilize the birth of Jesus to talk about the coming King. We pray for traditional Turkish churches to boldly proclaim the message of Christ this month. May we celebrate together as many new believers are baptized, Lord.
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. Come and see what our God has done, what awesome miracles he performs for people! He made a dry path through the Red Sea, and his people went across on foot. There we rejoiced in him. For by his great power he rules forever. He watches every movement of the nations; let no rebel rise in defiance."
