Pray for the 31
This podcast is based on "Pray for the Thirty-One Largest Frontier People Groups", a 31-day prayer guide available at go31.org or joshuaproject.net/frontier. The episodes are labeled with which edition of the prayer guide it is based on. This prayer guide gives you opportunity to pray for almost a billion people living within the thirty-one largest frontier people groups that have little chance of ever meeting a Jesus follower. Our desire is to join together thousands of believers igniting global prayer to bring God’s blessing through Gospel movements to these 31 largest groups of over ten million people. We hope in raising prayer and increasing awareness of these overlooked peoples, many hearts will be stirred to feel God’s love for them, crying out with a fervency for the right laborers to follow God’s Spirit into their towns, cities and regions to bring to them a blessing that can only come from the one true God. “Through you all the families on earth will be blessed." - Genesis 22:18

- Lord, bless Your Holy Scriptures in the Punjabi language to impact many communities. Provide people who are best suited to convey your Word in an understandable way to those from the Muslim faith. Bless the Jat, that Your Holy Scriptures may be available in the language they use to cry out to You.
- Lord, open the hearts of the leaders of the Jat families to receive Your blessing through a movement to Jesus, and to pass Your blessing on to other families and people groups.
Jesus is blessing the Jat to: Take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God, praying in the Spirit on all occasions. (Eph. 6:16-18)
