Thailand

Thailand is situated in the heart of south east Asia and is the only country in this region not to come under colonial rule, but has been shaped by the Buddhist religion, the monarchy and military. Derek Prince Ministries supports Christians in this predominantly Buddhist nation by providing Bible teaching and holding training events for churches and pastors.

Mission and Impact

Thailand has a population of nearly 70 million and faces major challenges including a lack of social and political stability, human trafficking, crime and corruption. Despite these difficulties, Thailand's rich cultural heritage and resilient population continue to inspire hope and progress.

In a predominantly Buddhist country where 92.5% of the population practices Buddhism, Christians make up just 1.2%. With limited Christian resources available in the Thai language, pastors and believers struggle to build a strong foundation in the Word of God and to disciple new Christians effectively.

Derek Prince Ministries is dedicated to addressing these spiritual needs by providing Thai believers and Christian leaders with access to sound Bible teaching in their own language. We partner with local churches, hold events to introduce Derek's Thai books, Teaching Letters, and proclamation cards, and lead people to our website, which offers freely downloadable resources. Our outreach also extends through social media, helping us connect with and support Thai Christians, ensuring they have the tools they need to grow in faith and lead their communities spiritually. Through these efforts, we aim to inspire and equip the next generation of Thai Christians, for the glory of God.

        The Journey So Far

        Ecclesiastes 3:1 tells us that “There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens.” This has been particularly encouraging for us at Derek Prince Ministries-Asia/Pacific. After over 20 years of prayer, in 2020, we finally saw the door open to make Derek’s Bible teachings available in Thailand. This new work, coordinated by a dedicated New Zealand couple based in northeast Thailand, marked the beginning of a transformative journey for Thai Christians.

        We started by employing a Christian translation company in Chiang Mai to translate 24 of Derek’s most influential books into Thai. Our initial print of 3,000 copies of the "Divine Exchange" was distributed widely among pastors and churches in northeast Thailand. These books introduced Derek Prince Ministries and our Thai website, serving as crucial resources for pastors and believers to share the Gospel and understand biblical truths more deeply.

        Today, Derek’s Teaching Letters, books, and proclamation cards are freely downloadable from our Thai website. We continue to introduce Derek’s teachings to churches, increasing awareness of these valuable resources. Through these efforts, we aim to leave a lasting legacy for the next generation of Thai believers, helping them grow in faith and develop firm foundations in the Lord.
