When you want to pray for the nations but aren't sure where to start, Prayercast bridges the gap with beautifully produced prayer videos covering countries, religions, and global topics.^1 Each video weaves together original music, striking footage, and spoken prayers — often recorded by believers from that very nation — giving you a guided, immersive way to intercede for people you may never meet.
A project of OneWay Ministries, Prayercast makes every resource available completely free.^2 The library spans prayer content for nations around the world, topics like loving Muslims, and curated prayer plans you can follow over days, weeks, or months. Resources are available in multiple languages including Arabic, Mandarin, Portuguese, and Spanish.^1 The site also offers prayer teachings meant to deepen your understanding of why and how to pray.^3
Prayercast is used in over 200 nations — in personal devotions, small groups, church services, classrooms, conferences, and large international prayer gatherings.^2 The Gospel Coalition has recommended it as a resource for cultivating missional prayer as a family.^5
