| Prayer requests on the website are updated every Monday-Friday at 9:30 a.m., EST July 24, 2014 “All the ends of the earth will remember and turn to the LORD. All the families of the nations will bow down before You, for kingship belongs to the LORD; He rules over the nations.” (Psalm 22:27-28, 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 Governor Lolo Matalasi Moliga of American Samoa (southwestern Pacific Ocean). LAST FRONTIER - As workers seek to expand the reach further into the Last Frontier people group, they ask you to pray for grace to be given to one partner who has taken on a new leadership role. He has much work to do to recover the image and influence that was lost due to his predecessor. Please ask the One who makes all things new, who restores what was lost and who renews our hope, to give this new leader the strength of character and the influence in his community to do what is right and to have a powerful story to tell each time he opens his mouth (Colossians 4:4). NORTHERN AFRICAN AND MIDDLE EASTERN UNENGAGED PEOPLES - From the Arabian Desert of the Arabian Peninsula to the Sahara Desert of northern Africa, the Chaamba Bedouin traversed over time to their new home. These Bedouin shepherds are nomadic, and to this day they still trek around the desert. They live in portable tents that provide a place for the mothers and children to hang out and for the men to entertain in the harsh desert. The Bedouin farmers are more localized, as they have taken up farming in the fertile soil on the outskirts of the desert. Their lifestyle has a more permanent feel. Whether the Chaamba Bedouin roam the great desert or put down roots just outside the desert, they are lost. Actually, there are a few Chaamba believers who have left Islam. In Islamic law, that is called apostasy, and it is punishable by death. Pray that God will protect His Chaamba children and empower them to live the abundant life He provides. Pray that believers will translate Scriptures into Bedouin Arabic, their unique dialect, so they can have access to the truth in a language they can understand. Also pray that a group or groups of believers will adopt them and commit to stand in the gap for them so that many of them will be worshiping around the throne of God forever.
