“The eyes of the LORD are on the righteous, and His ears are open to their prayers.” (1 Peter 3:12a, NKJV)

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 Prime Minister Tshering Tobgay of Bhutan (between China and India).

CHUABO OF MOZAMBIQUE (SHWAH-boh) - People around the world are looking for work, and most of the time they have to leave the area where they live to find a job. The Chuabo churches are facing that problem right now. Many church leaders have been going to other places to look for work, which has left their church without a leader. Pray for these churches that are without a leader or a pastor, asking that the people will be strong in their faith. Ask God to send another leader to guide these churches.

PEOPLE OF THE SWAN AREA, EAST ASIA - “I’ve always taken squirrels for granted. Everywhere I have lived has had those cute, little, fluffy-tailed critters. The one exception has been the part of the world that we now call home: the SWAN area. The SWAN area cities do not seem to have many squirrels. In fact, in the past five years, I have seen only three. The most recent was last week. The Lord used that sighting to remind me that although believers in our SWAN area are relatively rare (in some cities, very rare), they are there, and there are more people just waiting to hear and believe. Please pray for our friends in the SWAN cities, asking that they will be able to find local churches that they can attend and where they can grow. Pray that new believers will mature, that those who are seeking will cross that line into faith, and that the Lord will raise up workers to come to this part of His harvest field to sow and reap!”
