Scripture describes those who do not know Christ as in a state of "darkness."

Our world is full of millions of people who are wandering through life in the dark, having no light to guide them.

Want to know how to pray for those working to fulfill Jesus' Great Commission among those yet unreached?

Use your fingers as memory aids when you pray for missions. Here's how finger can be prayer reminders:

1. Thumb:  Since your thumb is nearest to you, begin by praying for this missionaries closest to you. They are the easiest ones to remember. C. S. Lewis said that praying for those we love is a "sweet duty.
2. Index or Pointing Finger:  Let your "pointing finger" remind you to pray for missionaries who teach, instruct, and heal. This includes teachers, doctors, and evangelist. They need support and wisdom for pointing other in the right direction.
3. Middle Finger:  Out tallest finger reminds is of our church leaders. WE can never pray too much for them. Pray for those who supervise and direct missionary outreach.
4. Ring Finger:  As a piano teacher will testify, the ring finger is our weaker finger. This weaker finger reminds us to pray for those missionaries who are discouraged, in trouble, or in pain.
5. Little Finger:  Our little finger is the smallest of the digits on our hands, which is where we should place our individual wants and desires in relation to world evangelism needs. The bible says, "The least shall be the greatest among you," Let your pinkie remind you to pray for the people of the world who have the greatest need to find Jesus. Pray that they will open their eyes and see Him.
