Whether God has you focus in on our world, our nation, or our community—list the names of and pray for those who are physically, mentally, and spiritually afflicted. Pray that the Lord will use believers, including you and your family, to help meet the needs of “the least of these,” who are hungry, thirsty, in need of clothes or shelter, sick, or in prison (see Matthew 25:31-46). Pray for those organizations or churches you are aware of that are trying to meet the needs of those in need.
Also, pray for those you personally know that are in need of finding a personal love relationship with the Lord—they are the most helpless, hopeless, and hurting of anyone you know, because they don’t know the Creator and Provider of all.
Remember the greatest privilege of prayer is enjoying loving conversation and communion with God. We are to pray frequently (1 Thessalonians 5:17) and openly (Revelation 3:20), and with confidence so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need (Hebrews 4:16).
