Pray for YWAM’s Gathering in Manila

The Invitation, August 8, 2024

YWAM Together Manila 2024 will be an epic time as our global community gathers before Jesus as one family. Already by the end of June, 150 nationalities had registered for Manila 2024, speaking more than 70 languages and coming from more than 500 YWAM locations. There is great historical significance in this YWAM family gathering. YWAM’s founder, Loren Cunningham, “graduated” to glory last October, leaving a huge spiritual inheritance for us and the whole body of Christ. It has been a tender time for us in YWAM and a key moment in our journey. We are in a season of transition, similar to that in the book of Joshua. The coordinators of this event sense God emphasizing the book of Joshua for YWAMers to reflect on, and in particular this verse: “Consecrate yourselves, for tomorrow the Lord will do wonders among you” (Joshua 3:5).

Please take a moment to pray for YWAM Together Manila 2024 right now, and please also pray with us on the August 8 prayer day for YWAM’s prayer initiative called The Invitation.

1. Pray for each person and family coming, for release of provision, favour with visas, good health, safe travel, and protection.
2. Pray for our YWAM Philippines family and the wider Filipino body of Christ, that as hosts they would be deeply encouraged, strengthened and blessed through this global gathering in their nation.
3. Pray with us for a deep work of the Holy Spirit in our midst in Manila and consecration to the Lord, resulting in even greater depths of love and unity among us.
4. Pray for God to give a fresh revelation to each person attending, giving them refreshment, courage and understanding of the specific role and task that God has for them in seeing the fulfilment of the Great Commission.
5. Pray for the clear word of the Lord to come to us as the YWAM family as we move together into the future in deep unity and with clarity of vision together.
