Sunday The influences of another major world religion combine with traditional animistic beliefs and a heritage of atheism to make this an area of extreme spiritual poverty. Pray that God’s transforming truth will pervade this region.
Monday The people groups we serve have no known believers. Pray for opportunities to build trust necessary for communicating the Gospel. Pray for wisdom to focus on the right language development issues and products to pave the way for future translation.
Tuesday Our work here is still in its early stages. Pray for guidance as our personnel make decisions about future opportunities. Pray for rapid progress as they study Russian as well as the national and minority languages spoken here.
Wednesday Our personnel are all young families who have undergone many transitions. Pray for protection, growth, and joy in their marriages and parenting. Pray that they will work together well as a unified team.
Thursday Regional politics and the difficulty of obtaining local permission to live in some areas present multiple challenges. Pray for favor to move more deeply into our work.
Friday Believers here face persecution, spiritual attack, and conflict with one another. Pray that they will unite to reach out to neighboring groups. Saturday Major spiritual strongholds include shame, fear, and desire for power. Pray that God will bring His honor, freedom, and love to this place. |
