Prayer Requests: 2nd Semester

Please Pray
God's Word is powerful and alive. I ask that you would use these scriptures as you remember me, my students (both saved and unsaved), and my fellow missionaries in prayer.


Ephesians 1:15-20a
For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers. I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know Him better. I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which He has called you, the riches of His glorious inheritance in the saints, and His incomparably great power for us who believe.


Ephesians 3:16-19
I pray that out of His glorious riches He may strengthen you with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.

Colossians 1:9-12
For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you and asking God to fill you with the knowledge of His will through all spiritual wisdom and understanding. And we pray this in order that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and may please Him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, being strengthened with all power according to His glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, and joyfully giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of light.

Specific Prayer Requests:

  • Please pray that God's holy presence would always be at Radiate events and outreaches in a way that is noticable to saved and usaved students alike.
  • Please pray that unsaved university students would feel the agape love of God through our relationships and interactions with them.
  • Please pray that non-seekers would become seekers, and that seekers would become believers.
  • Please pray for our student staff and leaders: They are, in many ways, on the front lines of this battle. Pray that they would be fervent in prayer, walk in purity, and have a deep, genuine burden for the lost.
  • Please pray for creativity and discernment as we are planning and preparing for Radiate events.
  • Please pray for my future: I have a lot of important decisions to make in the next few months and years. I want to hear God's voice, trust Him completely, and obey Him without hesitation. I told God a long time ago that I would follow Him anywhere, as long as I knew He was leading me. I really meant it.
