“I will praise the name of God with a song, And will magnify Him with thanksgiving,” (Psalm 69: 30, NKJV).

Dear Intercessors, this is Eleanor Witcher of the Office of Global Prayer Strategy, giving thanks with you for God’s work around the world.

In looking over prayer items, it is impossible to miss phrases like these: “Since this month is Thanksgiving month, please join us in thanking God for His bountiful blessings.” Or “when many pause specifically to give thanks, let us offer thanks to our Father for the future He has for . . .” our city. One team expressed their special thanks: “We are so grateful for what our Father provides for us to accomplish His work. We are blessed by the generous giving of Southern Baptists and the infinite prayers you lift up on our behalf.” As you celebrate with family and friends, please give thanks that the Lord involves all of us in His work. “Keep your eyes on the goal: that Christ will be known” and worshiped throughout the world–person by person, city by city.

The Project Taipei Team, Taiwan, is one of those teams writing: “Please join us in thanking God for His bountiful blessings. There are 41 campuses located in Greater Taipei. We are now on six of those and have six churches that have partnered in reaching those students. A national Baptist church has prayed for Junior High students and teachers in Taipei for many years. Next month, the church will host a party for the English students in the seventh grade along with their families. We are also thankful for partners who are willing to be trained to reach the not-yet-believers.”

* Please pray that workers will remain faithful to the task even when they do not see immediate fruit.

* Ask the Lord to bless teams–like Team Corsica, the Futa Toro Team, the team in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, and the Basque Team–who are hosting Thanksgiving meals that they will be able to engage their neighbors in deep spiritual conversations.

* Praise the name of our great God and magnify Him with thanksgiving.

Have a wonderful Wednesday!
