Things To Pray For In November

As a Sovereign Grace Pastor one of the highlights of any year, is the annual Sovereign Grace Pastors & Wives Conference. And this year’s is just one week away, as all our Pastors look to gather in Orlando, November 9-11, for this annual “family reunion”. 

Though the pandemic has prevented many global pastors from attending this year, current registration for the conference is still well over 560, with folk still travelling in from places such as Costa Rica, Germany, Ethiopia, Italy, Mexico, Zambia & United Kingdom. We are so encouraged by this!!

For this month therefore, I’d love to enlist your prayers for this special and strategic time for our family of churches. Here are some ways you can pray for everyone involved:

  • Pray that all that happens at the conference would celebrate the preeminence of Jesus Christ (this years theme) in a way that He alone would receive all the glory.

  • Pray that God would use the preaching to equip our pastors to live our lives, and pastor our churches, in a way that we make much of Christ as we faithfully serve His people.

  • Pray for our main session speakers: Jeff Purswell, Jon Payne, C.J. Mahaney, and Jared Mellinger. Pray also for Mark Prater, Eric Turbedsky, and myself as we lead a “Sovereign Grace Missions” main session.

  • Pray for the work of the Holy Spirit as we spend time together.

  • Pray that God would give us opportunities to care for one another and strengthen our relationships.

  • Pray that God would use our time to strengthen and unite us in the gospel mission we share.

... What a wonderful time of year. May the Saviour be truly preeminent in all that we do!
