Things to be Praying for in Preparation

If you are going into your time of prayer and fasting and are wondering what you need to be praying for, here is a list of a few things you can focus on that came from Caleb himself.

1. The unrest in Kenya. The political battle has become a tribal one. Over 1,000 people have died and over 250,000 people have been displaced from their homes.

2. The refugees in Simon’s village. Numerous refugees are currently in Simon's village. Simon is trying to provide them with food and places to sleep. Many of the refugees have lost their fathers, mothers, and children. Simon and the other ministries are overwhelmed and need wisdom in dealing with these people. The "other" tribe has already tried to attack the refugees in Simon's village, but they backed down when the Maasai stepped up.

3. The thirty groups being sent out. Their goal is to launch a disciple making movements among the Maasai. They will need wisdom and perseverance for the task before them.

4. Break strong holds in unreached villages. Many of the villages we are going to practice witchcraft and worship a false God as well as their dead ancestors. These are barriers that may require fasting and prayer for us to break through

5. That many people will come to know Christ, and that many disciples will be made. It is my desire that every Maasai village in Kenya will have had the chance to hear about Christ in the next couple years.
