Purpose

Mobilize every believer to pray for every person and street in the world by 2030 so that all will be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth (1 Timothy 2:1-4).

Project Categories

  • Innovative Approaches to Church Planting
  • Innovative Approaches to Disciple-Making

Big Idea and Overview

First, I would like to see every unbeliever in the world being persistently prayed for by name until they “are saved and come to the knowledge of the truth” (1 Tim. 2:4).  Second, I would like to see every street surrounded in persistent prayer until every neighborhood is “filled with  the knowledge of the glory of the Lord (Hab. 2:14)”. Third, I would like to see prayer families established that meet regularly to pray for their people, places and each other. So far, we have 1,387 family members on Streets of Prayer. These 1,387 family members are covering 10,304 unbelievers in persistent prayer. They have claimed 974 focus areas on the map to prayer walk. We have six prayer families meeting.

Customer / Mission Field Context

We are reaching every believer at a grassroots level but it can be applied to any ministry or church with a mission to reach people for Jesus.

Goals and Desired Outcomes

  • I would like to have 160,000 unbelievers covered in prayer by 2026. 
  • I would like to have 250 prayer families by 2026.
  • I would like to have 25,000 focus areas by 2026.
  • I would like to have the resources to hire the people I need to build infrastructure for the Streets of Prayer app and server to support the goals above.
  • I would like to have the resources to free up my time to expand the vision full time.
