Fast and Pray – February 19, 2026

Because prayer is the strategy of Pioneer Bible Translators, our worldwide team intentionally sets aside a day of fasting and prayer every month. On this day, we join in unified prayer, offering up to our Father praises and requests collected especially for this day. Please join this concert of prayer today by praying with us for our teammates and the people among whom they serve. 

  • Thank you, God, for giving teammates in Northern Africa the opportunity to do language learning remotely with a mother-tongue translator. Please provide financially for this translator to be able to work on the project full-time, or provide a solution for working only part-time.
  • Thank you, God, for providing avenues for recording and publishing Scripture in audio format for a language community in Northern Africa. Please continue this provision as more Scripture is translated.
  • Lord, please fill our Africa Area leadership team with wisdom from your Spirit as they seek to know who to set apart for the work of church planting in Eastern Africa.
  • Jesus, please open the door for African teammates to serve in a North-central African country that has been closed to Americans. 
  • Thank you, God, for answering our prayers by providing a teammate gifted in logistics and administration to serve in Nile Africa.
  • Lord God, please open doors for Kingdom workers living as refugees in East Africa to travel freely to neighboring countries so they can serve in trauma care and translation work. 
  • Father, thank you for the publication of the Psalms in one of our projects in West Africa. Thank you that the printing of the Pentateuch in another language is now underway. 
  • Lord, please give wisdom and increased unity among our language project teams in West Africa as they search for the right ways to adapt and grow. 
  • Thank you, God, that the Brazilian church is growing in its understanding of how Bible translation is vital to fulfilling the Great Commission. Please mobilize the Brazilian church and its leaders to support Brazilians in this ministry with prayers and finances.
