Prayer at NTE2025
Through our prayers we demonstrate our total dependence on God. We pray for his Spirit to work throughout the conference as Jesus impacts our lives before we head back into a world that does not recognise his authority.

Don’t forget to also check our Prayer Room located in Pelican Room, which will be a dedicated space to pray and reflect as you come before God.
There is also a Daily Prayer Meeting from 8:15am – 8:45am, Sun-Wed (optional)
Grab a quick brekkie and head to Quokka each morning to spend some time in prayer.
These guided prayer sessions will be led by AFES National Director, Richard Chin.
Praise God for his goodness and grace. Give thanks for the “The Eternal Gospel”, for the timely and timeless news for the nations.
Give thanks to God for his work in AFES through our departing National Director Richard Chin. Pray for Peter Sorrenson as he takes on this role.
Give thanks to God and pray for the work of the gospel in our fellowship – through conversations, Bible study, training and discipleship; through campus groups, AFES staff and partners, for his glory.
Give thanks to God for everyone who’s attending NTE this year. Give thanks that we can gather from around Australia and with friends from IFES in the Pacific and around the world.
Pray that we will be transformed by God’s gospel, trained in his gospel, and sent with his gospel to the nations, for his glory.
Pray for those who are attending NTE from overseas as delegates and guests. Pray that we would make them feel welcome and that we would be sensitive to cultural differences in our strand groups and the other elements of time together.
Pray for the international students who are at NTE as part of the FOCUS program. Pray that the FOCUS Strand Group Leaders will be able to explain theological concepts clearly to those whose first language is not English. Pray for the gospel to grow among international students. Pray for FOCUS students preparing to return to their home countries.
Pray for your Strand Group. Pray that you will enjoy your time together. Pray that your Strand Group leaders will have adequate time to prepare daily and be able to connect with and energise your Strand Group members.
Pray for our campuses (ask those who you meet at NTE what you can pray for their campus). Pray that they might know the great worth and their great need of the gospel. Pray that we will together continue to ‘prayerfully proclaim Jesus Christ at University to present everyone mature in him’
Pray that all our speakers would be humble as they teach us and that we would be humble as we sit under the Word of God.
Pray for the city of Canberra and our presence here during NTE. Pray that those we meet will be impressed by how we treat each other and them. Pray for opportunities to proclaim Christ this week. Pray that everything we do during NTE would show that we live for Jesus and not for ourselves.
Pray for our pre and post-conference NTE missions, as many groups partner with churches around Australia. Pray that God would be preparing the hearts of people surrounding these churches to hear the gospel and respond to it in repentance and faith.
