VJF Missions Prayer Requests

Jan 5 - We are reassessing the direction of our non-profit ministry ‘Katartismos International’ in the Philippines and asking for prayer for discernment, vision, and committed volunteers.
Jan 12 - Please pray for strength and committed volunteers to sustain the kids' ministries. Also, pray that the children grow in their knowledge of Jesus and influence their families toward salvation.
Jan 19 - Please pray for discernment and a smooth transition as we support a church plant and build relationships with a new group.
Jan 26 - Our ministry is prioritizing discipleship, and God has opened doors for growth. We've started a group with two couples we've known for years and will launch another in January. I'm also discipling Alain, a recovering meth addict, who asked to include others from his recovery center. With the center's permission, I'll begin a Bible study there in January, using Bisaya, which is a personal challenge. Please pray for clarity in sharing God's Word and for these groups to spark a disciple-making movement, where believers grow in Jesus and share their faith, hope, and love with others.

Jan 5 - Please pray for the salvation and spiritual transformation of our children and their families.
Jan 12 - Pray that our much-needed student enrollment continues to increase.
Jan 19 - We continue to ask for God’s wisdom and favor regarding the lease and location of our school.

PERSONAL REFLECTION — LISTEN: “My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me” (Luke 10:27).

Personally, pray for ears to hear the voice of the Spirit.
Plan times to sit or kneel in His presence with an open Bible and allow Him to speak. Ask for nothing — just listen.
Pray to discern His voice from all the other voices suggesting things you should do.
Pray for courage and resolve to follow Him. Only those who seek a deep intimacy with Him will hear His voice.
