Insight for Effective Prayer

It may be well to recall how Paul’s missionary journey opened up an entirely new field for Christian activity. Earlier, Paul had carried the Gospel into Asia Minor, where several Christian groups were established. This second missionary journey of Paul and his companions went beyond the boundaries of Asia, they were successful in establishing Christian Churches in several large cities on the continent of Europe. The second journey, therefore, marked a great advance in fulfilling the commission to “make disciples of all nations” (Matt. 28:19). Indeed, this journey may be regarded as the beginning of a spearhead movement which was to carry the Gospel message to the ends of the then-known world. It should be noted that the extended frontiers thus gained, became of great strategic value in later years; for when the rising tide of Mohammedanism swept the Christian Churches from Asia and North Africa, European Christianity managed to stand firm and maintain its identity. Thus the establishment of Christianity in Europe on this second missionary journey not only opened up a new continent for Christianity, but also proved to be a veritable lifesaver for the early Church!

Right now, GOFAMINT has Churches in some countries of Europe. There are still several nations in Europe which we are yet to cover. Even the nations where we are now, our impact is yet to be felt in those countries.

We must pray for a great revival of open doors for Churches in Europe and other continents. Surely, the zeal of the Lord of Host shall perform these.

The Japhetic nations of Europe and America have now become mission fields and the Lord is sending missionaries from Africa, especially Nigeria, to take the Word of Life to these nations. May the Lord find us faithful in GOFAMINT for this commission. For now GOFAMINT exists in USA, Mexico, Canada, UK, Ireland, Belgium and France. So many nations exist in these continents yet unreached.

The situation in Asia is rather worse, as we exist only in Philippines, and scantily for now in Israel and UAE. Asia has several countries and also has the largest population in the world and largest land space. Even we are neither in China (the most populous nation), nor in India (the second most populous), or even in Russia! We need to increase our prayers that the Lord will provide favourable entry into these nations and many others, as these continent form the largest bulk of ‘10-40’ missionary window.

The Lord had granted us an effectual open door of ministry in Australia, as the Lord had given us covenant partners in ministry over there, who are indigenes. This is grace and we covet it’s extension to other continents such as Europe and Asia.
