Praise God for His active work in our lives and the world around us. Pray for obedience to follow God’s leading in how He uses us. Ask for the Spirit to clearly guide us in where to go and with whom to meet for gospel conversations. Ask Him to grant us understanding and empower us to share God’s Word with boldness and clarity. Praise God for the joy we find in walking with Him in faith. Pray for God to receive much honor and glory through His faithful work in and through us.

This week, we are praying for Oak Tree Ministries, a nonprofit laboring with the people of the Marks Village Public Housing Community in fulfillment of God’s promise to raise up for Himself oak trees of righteousness for the display of his splendor. Oak Tree Ministries seeks to pave the way for people in Marks Village to be reconciled to God and others. We are also praying for Double Oak Community Church and Pastor Adam Robinson.

Day 1: Pray for God to call Christ-followers to labor with Oak Tree Ministries in ministering to the families in the Marks Village Housing Community to bring spiritual healing and restoration.

Day 2: Pray for God to use the summer outreach of Rock the Village the week of June 6th to cause people from Marks Village to want to know the Jesus whom we are celebrating. Ask God to send the 44 volunteers who are needed daily to serve at Rock the Village.

Day 3: Pray for the students and volunteers who gather each Tuesday afternoon for the Oak Tree Reading Club, that a love for reading would be fostered. Ask God to grow the children as disciples of the Word as they become readers of the Word.

Day 4: Pray for the 16 teens who gather each Thursday to hang out, build relationships, and explore how God’s Word directly speaks into their situations. Ask God to build strong bonds of fellowship in this group and equip the OTM staff to ask and answer difficult questions through the Word.

Day 5: Pray God will show Himself mighty in providing funds to complete the renovation of the 8,000 square foot building He gave to Oak Tree Ministries that is located next door to the community. Ask Him to fill the building with His presence and truth that it may be a safe haven for the community.

Day 6: Pray that God will pour out wisdom and discernment on the leadership team of Oak Tree Ministries. Ask God to keep the team ever mindful of His mission for His glory in His time through His strength.

The Church at Brook Hills is a point church for the new Global Cities Initiative. Specifically, we have been tasked with leading the mobilization of believers to the strategic city of Kuala Lumpur. Kuala Lumpur is located in Malaysia and is home to over 8 million people in the metropolitan area. Our desire is to see many Brook Hills professionals, students, and retirees to do what they do well and to do it somewhere strategic for the Kingdom of God. Join us this week as we pray for our church, the city of Kuala Lumpur, and the overall Global Cities Initiative.

Day 1: The desire of the Global Cities Initiative is to open up avenues for professionals, students, and retirees to work, live, and come alongside church planting teams in these cities. Pray that God would begin to stir in the hearts of believers and mobilize many at Brook Hills to join this initiative.

Day 2: Pray for God to make clear the paths for how he wants individuals to go. Pray for job opportunities to open for professionals to be able to work, live, and make disciples in Kuala Lumpur.

Day 3: There are fewer than 100 believers out of the 17 million Malay living in Malaysia. KL is the key to reaching Malaysia. Pray for a movement of God in KL. Pray for the gospel to spread on the wings of trade, commerce, and travel like we see in the book of Acts.

Day 4: The Global Cities Initiative is a pilot program with many unknowns. Pray for bold spirits for every point church, every leader, and every believer to move forward and participate in how God is moving.

Day 5: KL is a city of great religious diversity. There is a part of town where you can see Muslims, Hindus, Taoists, and Animists all worshipping within a few city blocks of each other. Praise God for bringing many unreached people groups into the city. Pray for Christians to share the gospel and for the church to be established in these UPG’s.

Day 6: Pray for the success of the Global Cities Initiative. Pray for the spread of the gospel among the thousands of Unreached People Groups living in cities across the world. Pray for God to mobilize His church to the cities.
