Prayer starter

Now great crowds accompanied him, and he turned and said to them, “If anyone comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple. Whoever does not bear his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple. - Luke 14:25-27

Jesus, thank you for bearing the weight of our sin on the cross, and saving us. You modeled what ‘all in’ looks like for us. We pray for the city and people in Yangon that they will be a people who come after you with everything they have. We pray that they would pick up their cross and follow you regardless of the persecution, misunderstanding, frustration that could occur. We pray for authentic, true disciples to be raised up for such a time as this in Myanmar.
