Isaiah 45:22-24, ESV “Turn to me and be saved, all the ends of the earth! For I am God, and there is no other. By myself I have sworn; from my mouth has gone out in righteousness a word that shall not return: ‘To me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear allegiance.’ “Only in the LORD, it shall be said of me, are righteousness and strength; to him shall come and be ashamed all who were incensed against him.
Pray for the many nations represented at the Olympics. Ask that God will reveal Himself to them so that they might be saved and give Him all of their allegiance.
Security is a big priority for Paris during the Olympics. Over 30,000 police officers will be patrolling the streets and venues across France. Pray for safety and that any evil plans will be prevented. Pray that visitors to the city will put their trust in Jesus, who wants to be their refuge and safe place in times of trouble
Some countries in the Asia-Pacific Rim are powerhouses at the Olympics. Others come, compete, and return home empty-handed. Please pray for Olympic athletes to realize that their worth is not in their performance but rather in being known by God. Pray for opportunities for them to interact with Christian athletes or volunteers at the games, and hear about a love not based on our performance or our medals, but based on a God who loves the world.
Use these resources to help pray specifically each day.
