It comes naturally to include in our prayers needs beyond our family and church. Here are some ideas that one can include:

1. Praying for the salvation and needs of our friends, neighbors, coworkers, etc.
2. Praying for companies we and our family members are employed by.
3. Praying for the safety of our city and its government.
4. Any other burdens God places on our heart (against sex trafficking or abortion).

Tip: Feel free to include as many people and petitions as God puts on your heart. Do not feel like you need to include many people, nor be afraid to have a long list. Take a load that you feel comfortable with. Have freedom to increase or decrease your list depending on how you feel.

Note: The above list of suggestions for your prayer is the job of an intercessor. God will be pleased even with a little. He can use these two fish and five loaves of bread from your hands to do miracles beyond imagination.

Please share with others for advancement of God’s Kingdom and glory of Jesus.
