The Prayer Target
2004 : Week 50  |  Printer Friendly Version  

We at SSVoice want to provide practical tools of encouragement as you continue your walk with the Lord. After you see this week’s message, it is our prayer that you get a vision for one of the most important aspects of the Christian life: prayer.

In the scripture for the day, we see that as Paul writes to the Colossian Church, he begins the letter with very encouraging news. Paul had continued to pray for the people, even though they had accepted the truth of the Gospel. Paul realized that the Christian life is more than a single decision made and forgotten. It is about building a lifelong relationship with the Lord and Creator of the world. Prayer is a key aspect of doing this.

Today’s tool was built just as a visual check board as you pray for people you know. The objective is to use the power of prayer to help people deepen their relationship with Christ. The concept is simple, and even the stage descriptions are subjective and can be changed to fit your specific needs.
Prayer Target



How To Use

Each numbered ring represents a different "stage" of a person's relationship with GOD. The goal is to pray someone closer to the middle of the target. You can print out the target here and use nothing more than sheets of notebook paper and thumbtacks to show where your people are in their relationship.
  • Stage 0 - The person does not have a relationship and does not care to.
  • Stage 1 - The person is searching for a relationship but has not heard the truth.
  • Stage 2 - The person has heard the truth but has yet to respond.
  • Stage 3 - The person has accepted the truth but needs to grow into the relationship and let it grow in them. (Milk Stage)
  • Stage 4 - The person is growing and maturing in their relationship but needs to continue through PRAYER, WORD, and EVANGELISM. (Meat Stage)
  • Stage 5 - The person has influence over several people and might be called to die for their faith so GOD can work through the crowd like a RUSHING WIND.
We hope this will encourage you to pray for people, since the power of prayer is able to change anyone.

The safest place in the world is right next to Him.

Colossians 1:3-5 (NASB)

3  We give thanks to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you,
4  since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and the love which you have for all the saints;
5  because of the hope laid up for you in heaven, of which you previously heard in the word of truth, the gospel.
