Using sports to pray for the nations is one way to impact the world for God. This week the Africa Cup of Nations soccer tournament concludes. Four teams remain: Mali vs Nigeria, Burkina Faso vs Ghana. All four play on Wednesday in South Africa. Take five minutes to review the prayer information from Operation World to pray for these countries. Ask God to impact the world by bringing more African people to Christ and for starting new churches with these new disciples. May the Lord catalyze a church planting movement in Africa!

You can also view a Prayercast slideshow to pray for Mali, NigeriaBurkina Faso, and Ghana.  Each video is about 90 seconds long. The videos will enhance your prayer time. Share the links with others to pray for Africa. Leave a comment about how you will pray for Africa.
