And God’s People Prayed ... World Prayer Calendar 2020-2021

Revelation 11: 15b “…The kingdom of this world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ; and He will reign forever and ever.” These words have become quite well known around the world. Why, because every time the Hallelujah Chorus is sung these words are the central text of the music. At the mid-point in this amazing work these words appear and then this leads to a repeated series of declarations, “He shall reign forever and ever.” There will be a day when the Kingdom or reign and control of this world WILL yield and bow to Christ. The Gospel will win in the end for all those who trust Him. Whenever we pray for the nations/the kingdoms of this world we are praying to that end…that no matter the current condition of a nation spiritually, we are praying for awakening and revival, for the flood of Gospel light in the darkness, the fearless advance of mission work to every unreached area and unengaged people group in the entire world until ALL hear!

In Christ,

Dr. Tommy Middleton

A suggestion on how to use this prayer guide:

1. This guide divides the 200 nations in our world, our United States, the churches in the BAGBR Association, and the BAGBR ministries into 50 groups. 2. If you were to set aside one day of the week to pray for missions, we ask that you pray for these, a different grouping of four, two/three churches of BAGBR, and one ministry and one state each week. 3. At the end of the calendar year you will have prayed one time for every country in the world, every one of the States of the US, all the churches in BAGBR, and the different ministries in BAGBR. 4. At the bottom of most pages there is space to make notes or write impressions that you may have as you pray and meditate. There are maps at the back of the booklet as well, so that you will be able to visually see where these countries are located in our world.
