Together By Prayer
Prayer is foundational to every facete of SIM’s ministry. God’s guidance, protection and provision are crucial in everything we do. It is impossible to estimate the power of the partnership of prayer.
Our motto By Prayer underlines SIM’s belief that this is God’s work.
No SIM missionary is sent out without a team of supporters who are committed
to pray for them on a regular basis. The part of a prayer supporter is not an easy one.
It takes discipline to set aside time to pray,
discernment and passion to pray specifically with focus,
and determination to persevere.
Your prayers can change things. Whether you choose to focus on one area of the world, a specific group of people or ministry, or a particular missionary family, you can be a part of SIM’s team By Prayer.
Join an SIM prayer group in your area. Make new friends who have a passion for mission and a heart for a lost world. If there is no prayer group in your area, we can help you start one.
Phil and Carol Short, ministering in Niger, said,
"Every day people are watching us. Watching our attitudes and responses.
Watching the way we treat people of influence, the poor and downtrodden and our
attitude to the constancy of suffering, to the blind and deformed.
They look to see how hospitable we are, whether we are generous or
stingy and how we respond to their requests for help. Do they see us
whinging and complaining, or are we able to accept our trials with trust
in our God who is in control?
Can you see why we value your prayer? We know that we ourselves are incapable of such a task.
It is only God that works in us as we recognise our weakness that the power of
God might be displayed through us".
