“As for me, I vow that I will not sin against the LORD by ceasing to pray for you.” (1 Samuel 12:23a)

WORLD LEADERS - “Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence” (1 Timothy 2:1-2). Please pray today for President Mahamadou Issoufou of Niger (western Africa, southeast of Algeria).

HAUSA OF WEST AFRICA (HOW-suh) - “This morning, I awoke before my family and was fixing breakfast while singing ‘Holy Is the Lamb.’ I noticed that my Muslim guard was sweeping the yard and had come close to the window like he was listening (not because I am a good singer, but just to hear the song). I felt the Spirit leading me to keeping praising, and after a few minutes, the guard called my name. He said, ‘I have to go and bury my friend. A good friend of mine just died, and I have to go and bury him.’ My heart broke in that moment, knowing that his friend did not know Jesus. I felt the Spirit lay this on my heart very strongly: ‘Tell My people to pray. Not ask--but tell.’ Pray for the 30.3 million Hausa people across the world who walk in darkness without knowing the truth of Christ’s love for them.”

TUNISIAN ARABS OF TUNISIA (too-NEE-zhan) - Recent research has shown that a majority of young Tunisians use social media on a regular basis. Facebook is especially popular among educated young women, and they post and chat in Arabic, French and English. Pray that they will find and “like” pages with Scripture portions, Bible stories, and contemporary music in English and Arabic. Many of these pages have information for people who would like to contact the page posters and get together to discuss spiritual things. Pray that this method of seed-sowing will reach deeply into the communities of Tunisia, resulting in the fruit of changed lives.
