Prayer - The Power Source
for Your Men's Group

Praying for Your Men's Ministry

Prayer is the source of vision, purpose, and power for mobilizing men in your church for ministry. Effective prayer needs to be an intentional, concentrated effort. If necessary, start as a team of one, praying regularly and passionately for the spiritual development of men in your church and community. Invite others to join you. When you pray, ask God specifically...

To strengthen your pastor's support and skills for reaching out to men
To give potential leaders for your men's ministry a desire to serve
To create an atmosphere of warmth, enthusiasm, and expectation toward and in the men's ministry
To make men in the church and community responsive to invitations to become involved in your group
Inspire reachable goals and effective plans for group activities
To reveal resources and materials that will best meet needs of men in your group
To increase the openness and trust of men toward one another within the group
To confirm His blessing of your men's ministry with success in winning new converts
To use the group to deepen the spiritual vitality of men who are already disciples
To enable your church to accept and include newcomers won through the men's ministry
