  • Pray that fathers would not provoke or stir up their children to wrath or anger but that they would lovingly raise them in the discipline and instruction of the Lord. (Eph 6:2)

  •  Pray for teachers and educators in the city to have a deep love of teaching and of children and for excellence in teaching their subject(s)

Arts & Entertainment

Arts & Entertainment

Arts & Entertainment

 The Arts and Entertainment industry can appeal to a most impressionable part of our emotions and souls. If its source is not Biblical but devilish, it warps the soul, thinking, attitudes and behavior and in today's world can even influence and change the culture.  But when this industry is motivated by the Spirit of God, it can positively feed oru spirit and will guide our attitudes and behavior into Godly ways.

  • Pray that Christians use wisdom and discernment in determining what they expose themselves to in the arts and entertainment industry.
  • Pray that the arts established in San Antonio produce that which glorifies God and is positive.
  • Pray fulfillment of the prophetic word spoken over the city in 2007 by Cindy Jacobs:

"God says to me that your (San Antonio's) gift is missions in the nations.  Hollywood is coming to San Antonio.  Movie studios will be built here; God is going to raise up your finest young men and women from your churches to start making film, television programs, communication; that God is going to use San Antonio to take the airwaves.  You're either gonna have the good or the bad; it just depends on how you pray.  But God wants it to be a righteous root, the Lord showed me that God wants to use San Antonio.  I see that there are going to be studios built here; they're going to come and buy large pieces of land and God wants our children to take the airwaves back.  The Lord showed me this and that God wants to use you to be the head and not the tail; God is going to use your in a very unique way to establish His Word."

-Cindy Jacobs

  • Pray that God would raise up young Christian artists from San Antonio who will produce film and television programs which are positive and glorify God.
