Uniting In Prayer
“Pray to Lord on behalf
of the city.” (Jer. 29:7)
What could it look like, if we prayed together?
What does it mean to “pray to the Lord on behalf of the city”—and not just the parts we’re most familiar with?
And how can we pray pointedly and specifically—and not just with vague repetitions?
And how can we pray with others—as the prophet Jeremiah instructs us?
The resources below will help you pray with greater breadth, deeper insight, and more power
as you unite your heart with others.

31 Days Prayer Team
When the Lord tells his people in Jeremiah 29:7 to pray on behalf of the city, he is writing to “all the people”—not just a select few. The God of Restoration is inviting his followers to join together with one voice, interceding on behalf of the community where he sent them. What could it look like if we did just that? And what if hundreds of people prayed for the same concern on the same day? If you would like to commit to praying daily using the 31 Days Of Prayer For Arlington, please sign up to be part of our Prayer Team. We’ll post the total number of people praying each month, and send you occasional notes of encouragement to keep up the good work.
