Pour out Your Spirit

Acts 2:17-19

"'In the last days,' God says, 'I will pour out my Spirit upon all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy. Your young men will see visions, and your old men will dream dreams. In those days I will pour out my Spirit even on my servants – men and women alike – and they will prophesy. And I will cause wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth below…'"

Prayer Point:

God, please pour out your Spirit on all people in Turkey, but specifically in Gaziantep. Show the lost who you are through wonders and signs before your return, that many might call upon the name of the Lord and be saved. Lord prepare the way in people's hearts and minds to hear the good news and respond positively. Gather your people together to discover more of Jesus. Bless those discovery groups that have already started this year in Gaziantep with abundant fruitfullness and multiplying generational growth. We pray this in Jesus' name.

Focus City: Gaziantep

Be Led by the Holy Spirit

June 27, 2025

Disciplemaking Principle: Be Led By The Holy Spirit When the Spirit moves in a people group or city amazing things can happen. Movements today testify that many discovery bible studies begin because of an encounter with God. Many disciplemakers are led to lost people who need a miracle and this encounter with God kickstarts a discovery study group. Movement leaders tell of the Spirit leading them to new people and place, speaking for them when the enemy attacks, and giving them wisdom and knowledge previously unknown. The Spirit opens the doors for obedient disciplemakers to walk through. Pray for each disciple of Christ to remain close to Jesus and be led by the Spirit each and every day.

Church is Family

June 21, 2025

Disciple-Making Principle: The Church is a Family 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.

Ahvaz, Iran - 110 Cities

June 17, 2025

Let's broaden our global perspective and pray for the city of Ahvaz, Iran today! Ahvaz is the capital city of the Khuzestan province in southwestern Iran. During the Iran-Iraq War (1980-1988), Ahvaz was close to the front lines and suffered greatly. Because of the many bridges over the Karun river, Ahvaz is called the City of bridges. It is also known as the Oil Capital of Iran after oil was discovered nearby in the early 1900s. Due to this dominant oil sector, it is one of the most polluted cities on the planet.

Multiply New Disciples and Churches

June 14, 2025

Disciplemaking Principle: Multiply New Disciples and Churches Movements around the world measure their effectiveness by measuring how many healthy new disciples are making more healthy new disciples, and how many healthy churches are reproducing new healthy churches. Multiplication is instilled as DNA from the very first discovery bible study. Members are asked to obey the word and share the story they just learned with someone who needs to hear it. They are then taught that when they find an interested seeker they should encourage them to start their own discovery group. In this way discovery groups, and eventually churches, are multiplied quickly and effectively.

Go Slow to Go Fast

June 6, 2025

Disciplemaking Principle: Go Slow to Go Fast In disciple making we want to focus on the foundations first; building character qualities and healthy DNA that will result in great depth and fruit. Movements often say "Focus on a few to win many." Jesus focused on the 12 disciples and mentored them for 3 years, and from them the church grew quickly. It takes time to develop healthy disciples worth multiplying, but when they do multiply they will produce healthy generational churches that are self sustaining and reproducing. Go slow now, in order to see the gospel spread faster and farther later.

Tentmakers

May 31, 2025

Sow the Gospel Abundantly

May 24, 2025

Disciplemaking Principle: Sow the Gospel Generously Movements around the world report that for every 10 discovery groups that begin, 9 will not continue into becoming a church. But for the ONE that completes its journey into becoming a church, it has also instilled healthy DNA of obedience and multiplication. This ONE group can multiple itself 100 fold in a matter of months! Pray for many, many discovery groups to start in Türkiye. Pray for those "Special ONES" to multiple greatly in depth and width. Ask for a movement of God in Türkiye now!
