ABWE Home Office —
Throughout the Bible, whenever God’s people have faced a special challenge, they have come together before their heavenly Father to pray. When Israel faced a physical battle for the survival in the Old Testament, they prayed.
God delivered.
When the early church faced spiritual opposition and persecution, they prayed. God protected, provided, and used their lives to proclaim the gospel with great courage. Against all odds, the church prevailed. Hell’s gates fell in retreat.
Join in the battle with us in the high priority of prayer, during ABWE’s Global Day of Prayer this Friday, May 1, from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. (EST). Our intent is that ABWE and its prayer partners will use this day to connect through live prayer broadcasts around the world.
Events include a virtual prayer room which can be accessed via the Global Day of Prayer link on the Pray section of this website. Participants can post urgent prayer requests, which will be funneled directly to the live web broadcast and prayed for throughout the day.
Please note the following prayer schedule and plan on joining us on the web for these events.
