| Prayer requests on the website are updated every Monday-Friday at 9:30 a.m., EST July 9, 2014 “In the day of my trouble I will call upon You, for You will answer me.” (Psalm 86:7, NASB) 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 President Islom Karimov of Uzbekistan (central Asia, north of Afghanistan). EASTERN PLAINS PEOPLES OF SOUTH ASIA - “This time of year in the Eastern Plains, the temperatures average around 105 degrees Fahrenheit, and it’s tempting to seek refuge in a room with an air conditioner until the summer passes. But for believers who know what’s at stake, staying indoors all summer just isn’t an option! Already this year, our workers have met with men and women in local congregations to train them to go out and make the Good News known in their villages and the surrounding areas. Several women on our team have given trainings in ‘Henna Storying,’ helping local women to spread the story of Jesus using the beautiful local art of temporary henna tattoos. Please lift up the faithful believers in the Eastern Plains this summer as they share their story--His story--in the blistering heat, and also pray for the workers on our team who serve among them!” JOLA-FONYI OF SENEGAL AND THE GAMBIA (JOH-luh-FOH-nyee) - “For the past few years, Pastor Kouse* has been partnering with our team by serving as a translator for volunteer teams, setting up ‘The Way of Righteousness’ Bible stories on the radio in three different villages, supervising these broadcasts, and being the feedback person. He and his family had been praying that the radio Bible stories could one day be a reality, and he is very pleased with the number of people who are listening to the stories. He was diagnosed with diabetes about 10 years ago, but for the past few months, he has been having more difficulty keeping it regulated and has also had other health issues. Please pray that God will heal Pastor Kouse, and ask that he will feel God’s presence. Also pray that he will be encouraged in his ministry as he tries to reach other Jola-Fonyi.” (*pseudonym) For additional prayer requests, click here: Today’s Prayer (If you have difficulty with this link, please go to www.imb.org and click on the “Pray” tab, and then click on the “Today’s Prayer” link in the left-hand column.) |
