Tonight at Growth group we prayed for group D at the world cup (we also prayed for Equador and some missho’s from church). This included. Portugal, Mexico, Iran and Angola. It’s great to watch the world cup and then reflect on something bigger than the football status of a nation: their spirituality. Pray for Portugal & Mexico in the grips of Catholicism that they’d understand that we can come to God based on the merits of Jesus and not our own. Pray for the struggling Christians in Muslim Iran that they’d persevere through their struggles. And thank God for the growth of Christianity in Angola even in the midst of dreadful war and suffering.

Thanks for posting this – what excellent things to pray for!
good idea
Today, the whole nation of South Africa is praying for 2010 World Cup. I like the insights you have provided and I would like a more detailed outline on how to pray.
