Prayer Warriors
Battle Plan
August 2020
August Events and Requests
• Each Regional Director has come up with “SMART goals” for the next two months. Pray for
wisdom and determination to achieve them.
• Please pray for the hearts of our leaders to embrace, not just Servant Leadership, but the
Master who gave us the model to follow. Give thanks for opportunities leaders have seen to
share their faith and disciple COS volunteers. Pray for open hearts and minds.
• Pray that District Captains will be engaged and active. We need depth, not just breadth!
Leadership Prayer Focus
Our Director of Grassroots Training, Jason Girard, is a
familiar face to many volunteers due to his enthusiastic
presence on webinars and training videos.
Jason asks prayer that the Lord would bless his words,
training, and example to be effective in advancing
liberty. Let’s also pray with Jason that he will be skilled
at duplicating himself in others and be a good steward over all the Lord has given him.
Scripture of the Month
“The reason I was born and came into the world is to testify to the truth.
Everyone on the side of truth listens to me.”
— John 18:37
Father God, we have a truth crisis in the nation. We have rejected your Word and the truth it
contains, and now we are fumbling around in darkness and confusion. Our journalists publish
opinions and even blatant lies as news, and our universities teach what the Apostle Paul called
“doctrines of demons.” We ask you, Lord, to raise up bold, prophetic voices to speak your truth.
Protect them and give them courage. Give believers integrity in discerning truth from error and the
ability to recognize our own biases. We pray also for great integrity for the COS movement and
that you will empower us to confront lies about COS with the truth.

“I, wisdom, dwell together with prudence;
I possess knowledge and discretion.
To fear the Lord is to hate evil; I hate pride and arrogance,
evil behavior and perverse speech.
Counsel and sound judgment are mine; I have insight, I have power.
By me kings reign and rulers issue decrees that are just;
by me princes govern, and nobles—all who rule on earth.
I love those who love me, and those who seek me find me.
With me are riches and honor, enduring wealth and prosperity.
My fruit is better than fine gold; what I yield surpasses choice silver.
I walk in the way of righteousness, along the paths of justice,
bestowing a rich inheritance on those who love me
and making their treasuries full.”
— Proverbs 8:12-21
