Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Philippians 3:13-14
Praise God for the successful launch of CBS with a new church in Zambia. Please pray that the church will use the lesson books faithfully and grow in their knowledge and understanding of God’s Word.
Please pray for potential leaders across North America. May they be empowered by the Holy Spirit to fan into flame the spiritual gifts, calling, and passion God has placed within them. May they trust God’s Word, not be timid but bold to answer His call, knowing He has not given a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:6–7).
Please pray for wisdom, strength, and guidance for CBS leaders and church leaders in Rwanda as they expand the ministry. Pray for more venues for groups to meet, increased commitment from church leaders, and lasting spiritual growth for all participants.
Please pray that plans for Spoken CBS leadership training in Guyana will move forward, and that participants will experience life transformation through His Word.
Please pray for the preparation for the upcoming gathering of CBS East Asia-Pacific Region leaders in the Philippines.
Please pray for protection over all who attend a CBS training in an unnamed country in the South Asia Region. Pray that this gathering would lay a strong foundation for the future work ahead.
Please pray for CBS in Poland as the ministry seeks to develop a healthy, committed team of mature believers who seek God’s will above all else. Pray that God will raise up humble, teachable leaders who value studying His Word, faithfully sharing the Gospel, and making disciples for Jesus.
Please pray for CBS leaders and participants studying the Bible in prisons around the world. Pray for them to know the grace and mercy of God as their lives are transformed through the study of His Word.
