Be willing! Pray for My People

I am calling upon our faithful pray-ers to help with a very important matter that is so close to my heart. We at The Prayer Movement have initiated a global prayer project to pray for the nations that fall within the area known as the “10/40 window.” According to the Joshua Project, the 10/40 window is a vast rectangular area that includes countries whose landmass is 10 and 40 degrees north of the equator and whose countries have a high number of unreached populations. 
 
Over the weeks ahead, we will post information about each of the specific nations in the 10/40 window that will assist you as you pray for them. Our request is that you pray for an awakening to God and salvation through Jesus Christ for the peoples within each of their nations of origin. The following are some facts about these nations, gathered by the Joshua Project:
 
Nations—69 nations
Population—5.22 billion individuals
People groups—8,875 distinct people groups
Unreached people groups—69.5% or 6,164 people groups or 3.16 billion people
Poverty—Home to the poorest of the poor. The majority of populations living in poverty are located in this area.
Religious groups—Hindu, Buddhist, Islam, and unbelieving
 
For more information on the “10/40 window,” visit joshuaproject.net.
 
We will be posting these 10/40 window prayer notifications on our website theprayermovement.com. If you would like to receive these weekly prayer prompts, I encourage you to visit theprayermovement.com and request to join our Facebook group. Each week, we will send out a post to all our Facebook prayer partners to alert them of these special prayer projects. Also on The Prayer Movement website, you will have access to various videos that teach on prayer and other materials I’m confident you will find very helpful to your ministry of prayer.
 
I do so hope you decide to join The Prayer Movement. History tells us that every mighty move of God was brought forth when believers joined together and were united in prayer. We need you!

On the chilly March night in 1972 when Lynne Hammond took her first step into a life of Spirit-led prayer, she had no idea what was about to happen. All she knew was the hunger in her heart for God wouldn’t let her sleep. In the few short months she’d been born again, her desire to fellowship with Him had grown so strong she could hardly contain it. “Help me, God!” she cried. “I want to know you. I want to be able to talk to you. Please, teach me to pray!”

Suddenly, a heavenly presence flooded the room. Lynne sensed waves of spiritual fire sweeping over her and a beautiful language began to flow like a river from within her. Although she’d never heard of the baptism of the Holy Spirit, she knew instantly, without a doubt—this was God!

What began that night soon blossomed into a life of prayer that ultimately became a ministry of prayer when, in 1980, Lynne and her husband, Mac, founded Living Word Christian Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Under Lynne’s leadership, the prayer ministry at Living Word has become an internationally recognized model for developing effective pray-ers in the local church.

A teacher and an author, Lynne publishes a newsletter called Prayer Notes, has written numerous books, and currently serves as the national prayer director for Daughters for Zion. Her passion for inspiring and leading others into the life of Spirit-led prayer continues to take her around the world to minister to believers whose heart cry, like hers, is “Lord, teach me to pray!”
