“God will bless us, and all the ends of the earth will fear Him. (Psalm 67:7, HCSB)

WORLD LEADER - “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 Premier Rufus Ewing of the Turks and Caicos (islands in the Caribbean, southeast of the Bahamas).

M’ZAB OF THE SAHARA DESERT AND BEYOND (m-zab) - Laboring in an obscure repair shop, Mustafa* toils seven days a week as his way to please God. Mustafa believes that if he works hard enough, one day when he stands before God, God just might accept him into Paradise. Recently Mustafa heard about the work that the Son has done on his behalf and that the Son is the way--the only way--to the Father. Mustafa struggles to reconcile this teaching with the teachings of his holy book. He is fully aware that only one of these teachings can be true, but he is unsure which one. Mustafa understands that sin has corrupted everyone’s life and that we must all be sinless to be able to stand one day in the Father’s presence. Pray that the Spirit will reveal to Mustafa the work of the Son: the work of salvation, grace, forgiveness, and relationship with the Father. “Jesus told him, ‘I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me’” (John 14:6, HCSB). (*pseudonym)

NKOYA OF WESTERN ZAMBIA (n-COY-yah) - Please pray for Houston*, a home missionary to the Nkoya people. He is doing an excellent job of teaching and preaching the Word and encouraging fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. Pray that what God is doing through Houston will continue among the Nkoya people! (*pseudonym)
