7 Days Prayer Guide for Buddhist Peoples - 10th-16th Feb 2026
The ‘Until the Light Breaks Through’ 7-Day Prayer Guide for Buddhist Peoples is designed to help individuals, families, prayer groups, and churches engage meaningfully in prayer for Buddhist peoples in the week leading up to the Global Day of Prayer for Buddhist Peoples on 17 February 2026.
It offers both biblical depth and practical structure, making it easy to use whether you have five minutes or an extended time set aside for intercession.
The guide is arranged as a day-by-day journey, covering seven locations and themes across Asia and the global Buddhist diaspora.
Each day focuses on a real place, real people, and a real story, helping prayers move beyond statistics to compassion-filled, informed intercession.
The journey includes Bhutan, Laos, Thailand, Japan, Northeast India, Myanmar, and the Buddhist diaspora in Los Angeles, with links to 110 Cities and Prayercast resources to encourage continued prayer throughout the year .
Each daily section follows a consistent and easy-to-navigate format:
- A short context-setting story or testimony showing how God is at work among Buddhist peoples
- Key prayer points focused on discipleship, family life, compassion, breakthrough, and Gospel access
- Selected Bible passages to anchor prayer firmly in Scripture
- A brief personal application question, inviting reflection and obedience
- A highlighted city focus, connecting local stories to God’s wider mission in the world
This structure allows the guide to be used flexibly. It works well for personal daily devotion, family prayer times, small groups, or corporate prayer gatherings. Some may choose to pray through one section each day, while others may use the stories and prayer points as a framework for longer worship-based prayer sessions.
The guide also intentionally prepares hearts for the Global Day of Prayer, helping intercessors build faith, understanding, and spiritual momentum. Rather than focusing on religious systems, it highlights Jesus’ love, compassion, power, and sufficiency, calling believers to pray with hope and confidence.
Ultimately, this guide is an invitation to stand with God’s heart for Buddhist peoples—believing that as the Church prays, the light of Christ will continue to break through homes, families, cities, and nations.
‘Until the Light Breaks Through’ has been published in 30+ languages (online), and is available for free, from the 110 Cities website.
The IPC Media Team have published a companion Childrens Guide entitled Listen - Live – Love that includes songs, daily stories and ‘Justin’s Thoughts’ written by Justin Gunawan.
This colourful Children’s Prayer Guide for Buddhist Peoples invites children aged 6–12 on a seven-day prayer journey around the world, meeting real-life children and families living in Buddhist cultures.
Each day focuses on a different place—such as Bhutan, Laos, Thailand, Japan, India, Myanmar, and the Buddhist diaspora—using engaging stories, simple explanations, prayer points, Bible verses, and fun language activities.
Children learn what daily life is like, what people believe, and why knowing Jesus matters.
Families can use the guide together at breakfast, bedtime, or family prayer time—reading a story, learning a new word, praying short prayers, and asking God to show His love to others.
It works brilliantly for family devotions, children’s groups, or individual reading, helping children grow in compassion, faith, and confidence to pray big prayers together for the Buddhist world.

Shine! – 2BC 24HRS Prayers – Tues 10th Feb 2026
By Tom Victor
Shine! 24 Hours – Raising Up 2BC Champions
Tuesday 10 February 2026 | Praying with and for Indonesia
“Rise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you.” (Isaiah 60:1)
Shine! is more than a 24-hour prayer event. At its heart, Shine! is about children and young people becoming 2BC Champions — learning to hear the voice of their Heavenly Father, discovering who they are in Christ, and confidently sharing God’s love with their friends and families.
This focus is shaping everything we do through the 2BC movement.
1️⃣ Shine! Begins with Children Becoming 2BC Champions
The first purpose of Shine! is discipleship and identity. Through child-led worship, prayer, creativity and Scripture, children are encouraged to:
- Listen to God’s voice
- Grow secure in their identity as God’s beloved children
- Step out in simple, faith-filled ways to share Jesus’ love
Shine! creates a safe, joyful space where children lead, families participate, and faith becomes something lived — not just talked about.
2️⃣ Praying for Children in the World’s Most Populous Nations
Each Shine! event also carries a clear global prayer focus.
On Tuesday 10 February 2026, we will be praying especially for children and young people across Indonesia — one of the most populous nations on earth.
Together, children around the world will pray that Indonesian children:
- Encounter Jesus personally
- Are surrounded by godly families and communities
- Grow up knowing hope, purpose and God’s love
This is children praying for children — heart to heart, nation to nation.
3️⃣ Praying for the Light of the World movie to Reach Families Everywhere
Finally, we will continue to pray for the global impact of the beautifully hand-drawn animated film Light of the World, created to share the Gospel of Jesus with children and families worldwide.
The film is being translated into scores of languages and released across many nations, with a clear Gospel invitation and free discipleship resources. It is a powerful tool to help children grow as 2BC Champions — knowing Jesus and making Him known.
Join the Shine! Zoom Call!
Shine! runs for 24 hours, with participation of children and young people across multiple nations, including:
- Online prayer hours
- Offline family, church and small-group gatherings
- Free Shine! resources including Prayer Guides, B.L.E.S.S. cards and worship songs
You can join for an hour, or host your own gathering at home or church.
If you are a child… love children… or were once a child — Shine! is for you.

‘7 Keys to Effective Prayer’ Podcast Series – Launches March 1st
Prayer is at the heart of the Christian life — yet many believers quietly wonder if they are really praying effectively. Why do some prayers seem to shape history, while others feel unfocused or weary? How do we persevere in prayer when answers are delayed, opposition is strong, or the world feels overwhelming?
The 7 Keys to Effective Prayer podcast series is an invitation to rediscover prayer as God intended it: rooted in Scripture, sustained by faith, and aligned with His purposes for the nations.
Hosted by Dr. Jason Hubbard, Director of International Prayer Connect, this seven-part teaching series draws on biblical foundations, historic prayer movements, and decades of experience mobilising prayer around the world. Jason brings clarity, depth, and pastoral warmth as he explores seven essential principles that help believers pray with confidence, persistence, and purpose.
These teachings are inspired in part by the remarkable legacy of the Moravian community at Herrnhut, Germany, led by Count Zinzendorf — a movement where believers committed to continuous, day-and-night prayer for over one hundred years, sparking extraordinary missionary fruit across the nations. Their story reminds us that when prayer is anchored in God’s heart, sustained over time, and shared by a community, it becomes a powerful force for spiritual transformation.
Each episode focuses on one key, offering biblical insight and practical encouragement for personal and corporate prayer:
The Seven Keys
- Worship Based Prayer
- Abiding in Christ
- Asking in Jesus’ Name
- Praying God’s Word
- Breakthrough Prayer
- Desperate Prayer
- Unceasing Prayer
The 7 Keys to Effective Prayer podcast launches on 1 March 2026, with new episodes released weekly. Listeners are encouraged not only to listen, but to reflect, apply, and allow the Holy Spirit to deepen their own prayer lives.
Our prayer is simple: that through this series, believers around the world will be freshly equipped to pray — faithfully, biblically, and expectantly — and to see God move in ways that bring glory to Jesus and advance His Kingdom.
During the AD2000 and Beyond Movement in the 1990's, many Unreached Peoples conferences, seminars and other initiatives were held that resulted in hundreds of new interdenominational networks focused on specific UPGs in about 80 countries. Those of us forming the International Prayer Council in 2001 and 2002, now called International Prayer Connect (

The favor God gave in answer to the prayers of believers back home was so amazing! After the concert, the conductor asked if I could come back the following year for another such concert of my grandfather’s music which I did. As we were sitting in the audience before the orchestra began to play, the conductor suddenly turned around and said. “Now, can we have John Robb come up to the mic and tell us about God?”

What a joy it is to witness God’s work and to join other believers in prayer. Thank you for standing in the gap until all people have access to Scripture.
