| Prayer requests on the website are updated every Monday-Friday at 9:30 a.m., EST September 24, 2014 "Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness! You have relieved me in my distress; have mercy on me, and hear my prayer.” (Psalm 4:1, 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 President Joseph Kabila of Democratic Republic of the Congo (central Africa, northeast of Angola). BASOTHO OF LESOTHO AND SOUTH AFRICA (BAH-soo-too) - “At a mobile medical clinic held in the remote mountain village of Ha Maphike,” writes a Basotho Team member, “I met a young mother whose teenage son had large growths behind each ear. The young man was terribly embarrassed by the growths and wore a hat pulled down over his ears all the time. The mother said that he was continually teased by the other children at school. In February of this year, a medical team from a church in Virginia came to Lesotho. This is the second year that this church has joined us to do medical missions. Arrangements were made to see the doctors, and the mother met us at our home one evening after we had spent a full day at a village medical clinic. The volunteer doctors removed the growths from the boy’s ears in a simple procedure on our dining room table. Fast forward to July 2014: This boy’s mother commits her life to Christ! Praise God for Southern Baptist church partners who are using their passions and gifts to reach the mountain Basotho for Christ! Sometimes the little things open the door to the Gospel!” RUSSIAN-SPEAKING PEOPLE OF UFA, RUSSIA (oo-FAH) - Team Ufa asks: “Please pray for preparations that are being made for a Celebrate Recovery training team that will be coming to Ufa in mid-October. Pray for smooth processing of their visa applications, for effective promotion of the training here in Ufa, and for local believers to be involved in the training.” 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.) |
