Thank you for praying! Here are some specific requests for this month:
1. Praise God for continually providing for the work of ministry. Please pray that we will be wise and faithful stewards of every resource He entrusts to us. Pray that He will guide and multiply the efforts and contributions of so many to bear much fruit for His glory.
2. Praise God for people seeking spiritual truth. Please pray that GQM resources will be easy to find for all who would be aided by them. AI-generated search summaries have resulted in a decrease in traffic to informational websites, including GQM sites. Thankfully many of the AI-generated summaries related to spiritual questions use and point to GQM materials. Please pray foremost for the truth of God to be accurately conveyed and for lives to be changed as a result, no matter how people obtain the information. Please also pray for God’s will to be done in the way the online world works and specifically in our role in this season. Pray for us to have wisdom in how to rightly respond to changes in technology and to be adaptable to whatever new avenues God may have for us.
3. Praise God for a team of dedicated partners in ministry. Whether volunteers, donors, prayer partners, contractors, staff, family members, or friends, we are so grateful for all who participate in the work God is doing through GQM. Please pray for one another—that God would equip each person in their portion, that He would give them joy in it, that He would use their affiliation with GQM to cause spiritual growth in them and their communities, and that He would be at work in their lives in general. Pray for things like spiritual maturity, spiritual protection, growth in the knowledge and love of God, relational health, physical health, and material provision. Pray for the family members and church communities of those affiliated with GQM—for unity, mutual edification and encouragement, and the love of Christ to be central and characteristic. With a team as diverse and large as ours, the ways to pray for one another are myriad. So pray for the team in any way God prompts, and know you are being prayed for as well.
4. Praise God that He makes Himself known to His creation. Pray that we will accurately understand and convey His truth. Pray for those who use GQM materials to grow in the knowledge and love of God. Pray for truth to be spoken with love. Pray for God’s Word to go forth and do its work. Pray for His Spirit to transform lives. Pray for those who don’t yet know Christ to be impacted by the gospel and for those who do know Christ to grow deeper roots in Him.
