The International Prayer and Mission Leaders Consultation: Uniting in Prayer for Transformational Revival and Mission Breakthrough, May 8-12, Herrnhut, Germany

In a matter of days now, 120 prayer and mission leaders will come from around the world joined by 30-40 local and European prayer and mission people to encounter the Lord and pray for His breakthroughs in reaching the remaining Unreached Peoples of the world, the raising up of children and youth for the unique callings the Lord has for them, and going deeper in authoritative prayer that transforms our world. It will be a potentially combustible, explosive gathering as we meet in this historic place of revival where the Holy Spirit came upon the Moravian community three centuries ago, leading to the sending out of the first Protestant missionaries. Children and youth were used by God to ignite that revival of 1727 with their persistent praying and worship during the night hours. Some of them who had participated in the 1727 revival also helped to sustain the 100 plus year 24/7 prayer chain that came out of that outpouring. Hundreds of them went to the ends of the earth, taking their coffins with them and never returning home in order to follow the Lamb to the end, being fully persuaded that because of His sufferings, He is worthy of our full giving of ourselves in sacrificial love and service.
During the consultation, we will pray with some of the descendants of the Moravians and their children and hear what God is doing to raise up the Next Generation in prayer and mission through significant coordinators of Children and Youth prayer movements around the world.
We will also adopt up to 300 unengaged and underserviced Unreached People Groups for prayer leading to mission engagement as the Lord enables us.
Award-winning videographer, Michael Lienau, will be there to capture key interviews with the cutting-edge prayer and mission leaders who are present as well as important moments from the consultation. He will prepare a documentary film on the Moravians and others who have combined prayer, revival and mission to change our world for Jesus Christ.

Would you please pray with us for this crucial time for the prayer and mission movements that we will be successful in achieving a real convergence between them for the benefit of both movements towards the accomplishment of His Great Commission? Here are some updated prayer concerns for the coming 12 days.
12 Days of Prayer for Transformational Revival and Mission Breakthrough
May 1-May 12, 2017
Seeking God together for the International Prayer Leaders’ Consultation in Herrnhut, Germany, May 8-12, 2017
We want to invite you to partner with us in 12 days of prayer, May 1- May 12, to pray for the upcoming gathering, “The International Prayer and Mission Leaders Consultation: Uniting in Prayer for Transformational Revival and Mission Breakthrough.” It will be held in the historic village Herrnhut, Germany, site of the Moravian prayer revival that sent out the first Protestant missionaries to reach the unreached with the Gospel! 120 international prayer and mission leaders plus about 30 local mission and prayer ministry people are convening in this tiny Germany village to cry out to the Lord as the Moravians did before them: “May the Lamb who was slain receive due reward of his sufferings!” Along with cutting-edge mission leaders, participants will pray and strategize that the unreached peoples of our day be reached as the prayer movement focuses more intentionally on the fulfillment of Christ’s Great Commission, still so much on His heart!
Prayer, revival and mission have always gone together since the book of Acts. It’s our desire to see a massive, prayer-based revival erupt throughout the nations of the earth! During these 21 days of prayer we are asking for another historic move of the Holy Spirit to sweep across the nations and awaken a whole new generation to wholehearted love and surrender to Jesus in His mission to those who have never heard of His love and truth!
“For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea" (Hab. 2:14).
During this gathering, we want to more closely and effectively connect the prayer and mission movements for the final push to the accomplishment of Matthew 24:14, that everyone may hear and respond to the glorious gospel of the kingdom in these last days!
“And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come” (Matt. 24:14).
During the run-up to the Consultation and continuing through it, please be praying with us for these specific outcomes:
- For traveling mercies as well as physical and spiritual protection over every participant as he or she prepares to journey to Herrnhut. Some are experiencing attacks on their health now.
- That those prayer and mission leaders coming would deeply connect with the Lord and one another, experiencing the reviving work of the Holy Spirit in this historic place of prayer, revival and mission.
- For a mighty outpouring of the Holy Spirit for the glory of Jesus Christ! Acts 1:8, 2:17-2:21 that will start at Herrnhut again and flow out to the nations!
- That the participants will prayerfully discern together how the international prayer and mission movements can be better integrated for their mutual benefit and for the sake of those still unreached with His Gospel (Matt. 24:14).
- For God’s empowering of the Next Generation youth and children’s prayer movements, both during and following this gathering, and that every nation will have a thriving Next Gen prayer movement in the coming 10 years.
- For canopies of united, strategic and sustainable prayer to be raised up in every nation and city across the earth.
- For a Great Awakening and New Reformation to erupt in Germany and across Europe.
- For a ‘Spirit of Unity’ during the gathering, that we would come together ‘in one accord’ loving and supporting one another in the diverse missions He has called us to as members of His Body (John 17 and Psalm 133).
- For a mighty anointing of the Holy Spirit to rest upon each one presenting and leading us in prayer and for His prophetic insight to flow among us!
- That we will develop valuable, ongoing relationships and friendships that advance His Kingdom.
- For key moments and inspiring stories to be captured via video and distributed effectively to the prayer, revival and mission movements around the world.
- For favor with authorities, the granting of visas, and safe, peaceful travel arrangements for all those coming to Herrnhut.
- For protection from the evil one and all the forces of darkness (Psalm 91).
- For the Lord of the Harvest to thrust forth missionaries to the ends of the earth and that every unreached people group will have a viable movement of Christ followers within the coming decade (Matt. 9:37-38).
Thanks so much for partnering with us in prayer for this historic gathering. In His hands, your prayers will make all the difference!
For the Supremacy of Christ in all things,
Jason Hubbard and John Robb
