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

Specific Prayers:
- Lord, give miracles, dreams, visions, and healings to the Kurmi families, showing the power of Jesus to bring salvation. Bless the Kurmi in their work and bless with faithfulness those who hear the call to work in Your field.
- Lord, bless Your Holy Scriptures in their language (Hindi). May they hear the stories of Your call for laborers into Your Harvest. Help them to hear the reason Jesus came and to take on the calling for which You have made them.
- Lord, raise Kurmi believers to live out Jesus’ teachings; to share the Bible in their homes, to train whole families to win other whole families, to turn the hearts of children to their parents and turn the hearts of parents to their children. Give them power to share in the truth of Jesus’s salvation.
The blessing of the Lord for the Kurmi: As the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater, so is My Word that goes out from My mouth: It will not return to Me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it. (Is. 55:10-11)
