Dear Friend,

At New Covenant Missions for over 25 years, we believe nothing of lasting Kingdom value happens apart from prayer. This page is a dedicated space for you—our partners and friends—to lift our global mission work to God in the powerful name of Jesus.

For the third Tuesday of every month, our official Day Of Prayer, we gather urgent prayer requests and praise reports directly from National Coordinators on the frontlines - this month’s list is below. We invite you to prayerfully unite with our missionaries as you read through these updates that change monthly.

Day Of Prayer - September 2026

Prayer requests, praise reports & monthly devotional

Urgent Prayers Needed For The Field in all regions:

MONTHLY DEVOTIONAL

The Power of Being Right - All Right

“Then Peter said, ‘Silver or gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.’” Acts 3:6

The Kairos Moment:
There are times in God’s work when everything seems to come together. Because we, human beings, cannot plan every detail and implement it.  However, God has a Kairos moment. Acts 3 and 4 give us such a moment. A man who had been lame from birth was carried every day to the temple gate to beg for money. Peter and John were also going to the temple at the appointed hour of prayer. What looked like an ordinary day became a divine appointment. I would like to reflect on this story in five rights for the purpose of our monthly devotion.
