Global Day of Prayer for the Buddhist World

7 Days of Prayer is February 10th - 16th, 2026 leading up to the

Global Day of Prayer for the Buddhist World on February 17th

“For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.” Hab 2:14

Here is a list of key Buddhist-influenced cities where gospel movements are emerging. As the Lord leads, choose one or two of these cities to focus on in prayer with your families, churches, and prayer rooms.

On this Global Day of Prayer for the Buddhist world, let us ask the Lord to reveal the knowledge of His glory to the nearly 500 million Buddhists around the world. Habakkuk 2:14 gives us a powerful picture of God’s glory covering the earth as the waters cover the sea. As we pray, let us believe for an overwhelming movement of God’s presence and truth among the peoples of the Buddhist world.

I want to encourage us to use the Lord’s prayer as a guide as we gather in prayer with our families, churches and prayer rooms around the world. Here is a list of key Buddhist cities that have gospel movements emerging. Pick one or two of these cities as the Lord leads you.

We are partnering with YouVersion's Bible App to provide the Buddhist Prayer Guides available on their app in many different languages. You can find the links to those plans below:
