Prayer for Bangladesh

Right now our country situation is not good. A Muslim terrorist group always told most of the Christian leaders to stop Christianity so now the Bangladeshi Christian Community is very afraid. Last month, one group sent me a SMS saying, “Stop your prayer activities with Christian Nurses. (This is a program for Christian Nurses in which we worship and pray together.) But some Muslim people don't like this. That's why they send to me SMS and threatened that if you again start this program, we will kill you. So please pray for Bangladesh. We are only half a million Christians here and need safety. I believe God will protect us.

God bless you.

Pray for continued dissension among the Taliban and that they will give up their destructive struggle against the government. That they will become disillusioned with all the fighting and killing among themselves and of their own people.

(CNN)The Taliban don't only attack other people; factions of the Taliban sometimes battle each other.

For the last four days, two Taliban groups have waged gun battles in Zabul province in southern Afghanistan, Ata Mohammad Haqbayan, the head of the Provincial Council in Zabul, said Tuesday. On one side are fighters loyal to Mullah Akhtar Mohammad Mansour, and on the other are fighters loyal to Mullah Mohammad Rasool, the leader of a Taliban splinter group.

A deadly suicide attack

So far, about 100 Taliban fighters from both sides have been killed, including some Uzbek fighters who are siding with Rasool's splinter group, Haqbayan said. On Tuesday morning, an Uzbek fighter carried out a suicide attack on Mansour's senior members in the province, killing some of them, according to Haqbayan.

The division in the Taliban came after the group acknowledged in late July the death of its leader, Mullah Mohammad Omar, and his replacement with Mansour.

Every valley shall be raised up,

every mountain and hill made low;

the rough ground shall become level,

the rugged places a plain.

And the glory of the Lord will be revealed,

and all people will see it together.

– Isaiah 40:4-5

 It's time for the Church to unite. It's time to focus on who we are for, not what we're against. It's time to focus on Jesus.

Rampant division is demoralizing our nation. We need each other. We need Jesus.

On July 16, 2016, we’re inviting you to join us on the National Mall in Washington, D.C. for Together 2016. Together 2016 will be a day of prayer, united worship, and a call for catalytic change than can turn the tide in this nation—turn us to Jesus.

Imagine one million people from every background, social standing, and ethnicity, coming together to lay aside our differences and ask Jesus to reset this generation.

The vision for Together 2016 is too big for any one church or ministry. And that’s the point. Together 2016 is a meeting for the whole family. We invite your church to join:

Hillsong United

1 Kari Jobe

2 Francis Chan

3 Ravi Zacharias

and many more artists and leaders on the National Mall when we ask Jesus for a reset through prayer, worship, and the Word of God. We need you and your church!

Learn more and get involved at reset2016.com/churches. Once you register, you'll be able to download the free Together 2016 sermon kit: launch video, slides, sermon outline, and printable prayer card.

We’re praying that you will be a part of this defining moment in our nation’s history.

Standing with you,

The Together Team

(churches, ministries, and organizations praying for a spiritual reset of our nation)*

 Summary and Prayer Points

Together 2016: July 16 in Washington, D.C.

Together 2016 is a gathering about Jesus on the National Mall that will be a day of unified prayer, worship, and a call for catalytic change. It is a “family gathering” and everyone is invited, but we expect a generation of young people to boldly declare that “Jesus changes everything.”

We anticipate this will be the historic day when the nation will ask for a reset together—a massive, collective moment when we ask Jesus to reset our lives, our nation, and our generation. Our prayer is that a million people will experience Jesus’ reset together on a single day—and it will change the tide of culture for an entire generation.

• Reset is the message about the hope that Jesus brings and how He offers a reset in our lives. It is also a prayer—an outcry to God.
• Together is the event in D.C. when on one day—July 16—when we will come together as family and in unity—asking God to reset our generation and nation.

You can join in support of Together 2016 by going to www.reset2016.com and indicate that “you’re in.” You can also connect with Carol Madison at This email address is being protected from spambots.

Prayer Points:

We are looking for a million people who will pray together for a reset of their lives, this generation, and our nation—as well as pray in advance for Together 2016.

Pray for the orchestration of all the logistics and details of putting on a gathering of a million people on the National Mall. Pray for continued favor with the National Park Service. Pray also for the finances to orchestrate something so massive.

Pray for the leadership team for Together to be unified and to hear the Lord well regarding His plan and purposes.

Pray for the planning of the program for the day on July 16—especially for those who will be on the platform leading in worship and prayer. Pray for God’s direction in inviting leaders, as well as sensitivity to the Spirit’s movement that day.

Pray for the Church to rise up and recognize the urgency of our day—and be willing to mobilize to support Together and the many other prayer initiatives that God is raising up in our nation. May we all be united in pursing God with our desperate need for revival and spiritual awakening!

Thanks, many thanks indeed for your prayer support. The Royal Kids Of South Africa managed, by the Grace of God, to make it to Cape Town and hosted our first Children Prayer Conference with aplomb. A 2000 Seater Tent was full and overflowing with Children!!! There has never been such a gathering of Children in Cape Town before. The Churches were shell shocked. The Prayer Conference itself fulfilled its purpose. Several Bodies of Pastors' Networks came together for the first time and none of them had horns!!! We had bumper crowds from day one to the last day. Spiritually, it was highly successful.

One of the regional prayer strategies developed at the launch of the IPC in South Africa in 2002 has developed into a strong, annual assembly of prayer and ministry leaders from all eleven countries of Southeast Asia. This video records the wonderful things that have developed through this ongoing association. Praise God and enjoy!

Dear Prayer Network Leaders and Friends, 

As you may already know, on July 26-30, 2016, we are calling for a global UPRISING-- that is, United Prayer Rising-- in Seoul, South Korea. With the global crisis this generation is facing and the attacks on them, we believe that it's time to gather, it's time to pray, and it's time to see change in our regions and our nations. We see the convergence of generations in united prayer can potentially reverse the crisis, and even potentially give birth to new prayer and missions movements and even a Jesus Movement all over the world. Also, on July 29, a worship-intercession will be held at the DMZ Peace Plaza (the border of North and South Korea) to pray against division, and agree with our Korean brothers in prayer for the unification of Korea. 

To hear more about the vision, watch this: http://unitedprayerrising.com/video/

We are looking for partners in your region who can help us mobilize the next generation of leaders to come to South Korea on July to receive a fresh vision for their generation, receive impartation from the older generation, get connected with other emerging leaders from all over the world, and partner with the Holy Spirit in releasing God's glory among the nations. 

We are targeting at least 100-120 emerging leaders to come from each region. So, if you can partner with us, we would like to ask for you to please:

1. Sponsor the cost of registration, airfare, accommodation, and food for  3-5 representatives (emerging leaders) from your own network to come to the UPRISING. (Watch out for the Early Bird Registration opening this December!)

2. Call or email your network of leader-friends who also have the same desire to see the next generation rise to their destiny of being catalysts for change, and introduce/ endorse us to them. 

3. Send us a list of young leaders/mobilizers in your region whom you think will be willing to help us see this generation to be the Ps 24 generation God has been waiting for. Please send their names, organization/affiliation, country/region, email addresses, and contact numbers. 

        i.e: Sarah Torres 

              Jesus Revolution Now

              Philippines/ Southeast Asia

We would appreciate receiving your list so we can reach them in time for the early bird registration.

4. Give. We invite you to make a contribution toward the vision of the UPRISING; to sow into this new wave of revival that's coming to the nations (see UPRISING budget attached). Should you need bank details, you may send me an email (donations are tax-deductible). This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

5. Pray. Pray. Pray. We value your prayers a lot.

Thank you so much and God bless you beyond your heart's desires. 

For God and this generation,

UPRISING 2016 South Korea

World Youth Prayer Assembly Executive Team planning meetings in Manila

A gathering of youth ministry leaders along with key Korean pastors, other internationals and IPC leadership team folks meet in Manila, Nov. 3-6, as the Executive Team to plan important aspects of the UPRISING: the World Youth Prayer Assembly that will happen next July 26-30 in South Korea. God did answer the prayers of many for a very productive, united time together, a good sense of His bonding as a team under the expert leadership of Pastor Jerome Ocampo and his colleagues in the Jesus Revolution, a youth ministry organization that is helping to plan and organize the event.

In those three days, we made progress on the flow of the program, the speakers to invite (for both Track and Plenary sessions) that will happen during the first 3 days of Prayer Convergence. We also discussed the DMZ (Demilitarized Zone between North and South Korea) solemn assembly for the 4th day of the convergence. In this one day gathering at the border (at the Peace Plaza), it will be like a Worship Concert but really a worship intercession time. As Jerome put it, “I remember that 65 years ago, nations came to help South Korea push back the war to the border. Today we metaphorically saying that the next generation of leaders from all over the world will come again, this time to push the spiritual boundaries of disunity and pray for unification and unity. The target audience on this last day can be 5,000 to 10,000 people…We request your prayers as we, both youth leaders from different nations and the older leaders of prayer movements continue to conceptualize how we can ignite a grassroots movement of the emerging generation on prayer, evangelism, destiny, and transformation.”

We also need His breakthrough financially just as He provided for the World Prayer Assembly in such an amazing and wonderful way so that every expense was covered. About one-third of the amount He provided for the WPA will be necessary for the WYPA. What a bargain to see the world fundamentally transformed by a rising younger generation from every region on earth, who will keep on serving Christ and making an impact for decades to come! Please join us in trusting for the little over $1 million USD necessary to cover the cost.

Thanks for joining with us in this effort to help encourage, mentor and raise up the next generation of leadership in His Body around the world.
