DAY #40 - CUPBEARERS
On this the 40th day of prayer for the children, we want to focus our prayer on the people that enable Children’s Cup to do what we do. Those of you who support Children’s Cup through prayer, giving or even going to the field for short-term missions projects all are very very important to us. We are convinced that it is your prayers that have sustained us when we have needed strength, and provided the resources when they were most needed.
So today, we pray for the children by asking God to continue to bless you and the rest of the Children’s Cup Cupbearers. We pray for your families - for strengthened relationships, for healing, for strength during times when families are separated due to military service. We pray for direction in your lives. We pray for God’s protection on your children, and for His hand to be on them everywhere they go. We pray that God will bless your businesses, your employers and employees. We pray that God will make you beacons of light and God’s hope to your co-workers, neighbors and loved ones. We pray for anointing in your lives as God gives you opportunity to show people His love and grace. We pray that God will increase your capacity to serve Him in your local church. We pray for increased blessing on you so that you can bless others. We pray that the power of the Holy Spirit will fill you as you continue to pray for the children and for His blessing on your resources as you continue to provide for the work Children’s Cup is doing with them.
Today we have invited a great friend of Children's Cup to lead us in prayer. Lee Domingue is a tremendous example of being a 'CupBearer - his heart and passion for doing God's will in everything is both inspiring and a blessing to everyone around him. Lee recently was in Mozambique and Swaziland with a team from Healing Place Church.
If you have a prayer need that you'd like to include here, please add it to the comments on this post and we'll be sure to pray for you today.
And feel free to come back here to let us know of the answers to your prayers as God meets them.
Thanks again for praying. Please stay connected with Children's Cup through the 'Cup website (www.childrenscup.org) and the 'Cup team members' blogs:

- Dear Heavenly Father, You are our Source! There is no other.
Lord, stretch us all to the knowledge of knowing that Your resources come to us only to go thru us. Your word says in II Corinthians 9:8 that all grace may abound to You, that You have sufficiency in all things but an ABUNDANCE for every good work. Your sufficiency is more than enough! Lord, I pray for creative efficient ideas and divine favor upon all the 'Cup team, the children and CupBearers. Open up doors that have been closed, restore relationships that have been severed, remove shame from our pasts so we can walk in the fullest of Your purpose for our lives! In Jesus name!
Thank You, Lord, for allowing our eyes to be opened and our comfort zone to be turned upside down. Let us see the children as You see them. Continue to give uncommon favor and access to Children’s Cup to make a difference in Africa. Cause even the government officials to find favor with what You are doing thru Children’s Cup. Cup is Your vehicle Lord to reach the children of Africa. We pray a blessing of exponential increase and sustained blessing to all CupBearers’ who have Your heart to pray, give and go. Give us grace so that our desires will line up with Your heart. Let us never limit You to our last blessing. You are El-Shaddai….the God of More than Enough!
We love You, Jesus!
