The world is changing.
Evidence of globalisation is all around us.
While to many the world seems out of control, God is fully in command of all that is happening, and is consistently and surely working out His purposes. And He is calling His Church to take up its global mandate with renewed vision and purpose.
The World Prayer Centre is part of the new thing that God is doing around the world. As the Church begins to strategise and think globally, so we must pray globally. A united and consistent flow of strategic prayer is needed now:
- to open the way for us to reach the remaining peoples of the world who have not yet heard the good news of Jesus
- to equip the church to reach out with love and grace to a hurting society
- to enable us to meet, with the authority of Christ, the challenges and opportunities of national and international power structures
- to strengthen the Church to meet its end-time calling
The Centre, as seen in a vision by Project Director Ian Cole, is yet to be built, but even now there is a growing tide of prayer across the world which the World Prayer Centre will join in facilitating in due course.
