Join Us in Prayer: Covering Our Mission in Faith
At Sows of Hope, we believe that true and lasting change begins on our knees. Our work is more than agriculture; it is a ministry of hope, provision, and dignity. We invite you to stand with us in prayer, covering every aspect of this mission, from the smallest piglet to the largest grant, in the powerful name of Jesus.
Please pray with us for:
1. 🙏 Prayer for the Farmers & Families
Heavenly Father, we lift up the courageous farmers, the fathers and mothers who labor to feed their children. Grant them strength, resilience, and divine wisdom as they learn new skills. Multiply their efforts through the livestock they receive. Protect their hope from discouragement and their livelihoods from disaster. May their success be a testimony to Your faithfulness in their communities. (Proverbs 31:17)
2. 👧👦 Prayer for the Children
Lord Jesus, You said, "Let the little children come to me." We pray for the children in our partner communities. We ask that the nourishment from this project would fuel their growing bodies and the stability it brings would allow them to stay in school. Protect them from malnutrition and disease. Let them grow up in families filled with hope, not worry, and let them see Your love in action. (Matthew 19:14)
3. 👩 Prayer for the Women
God, our Provider, we specifically lift up the women. So often, they bear the heaviest burden of poverty. Bless the work of their hands as they care for the animals and manage their households. May this program empower them economically and socially, granting them dignity, respect, and a voice. Let them be pillars of strength and beacons of hope in their villages. (Proverbs 31:25)
4. ⛪Prayer for Church Partners
Father, we pray for our church partners on the ground—the hands and feet of this mission. Anoint their pastors and leaders with wisdom, integrity, and compassion. Unite their congregations around this common goal. Protect them from spiritual warfare and grant them incredible favor within their communities. Use them mightily to share both physical bread and the Bread of Life. (1 Corinthians 3:9)
5. 🌱 Prayer for Provision & Growth
Lord, You are the ultimate multiplier. We ask for Your blessing and provision over every aspect of this work. Multiply the herds, the resources, and the impact. Bring forth skilled veterinarians, quality feed, and favorable weather. Open the right doors for funding and partnerships with institutions who share our vision. (2 Corinthians 9:10)
6. 🛡️Prayer Against Threats
Mighty God, we claim Your protection over this mission. We pray a hedge of protection around the livestock against disease, drought, and theft. Guard the program against corruption, jealousy, and any form of evil that seeks to derail it. Let Your angels camp around the farms and families involved. (Psalm 91:11-12)*
