| Prayer requests on the website are updated every Monday-Friday at 9:30 a.m., EST October 23, 2014 "This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him.” (Psalm 34:6a, HCSB) WORLD LEADERS - "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, NKJV). Please pray today for Governor Colin Roberts of Falkland Islands (east of southern Argentina). HINDUS OF KARNATAKA STATE, INDIA (car-NAH-tuh-kuh) - “Will you pray for boldness for our fellow brothers and sisters across Karnataka? Out of fear of persecution and actual brutal persecution, many do not openly share their life-saving faith. Will you ask for open doors for them to communicate with their friends, families, neighbors and all those they meet with throughout their daily lives?” HONG KONG AND MACAU, CHINA (ma-COW) - A 4-year-old boy, along with his parents and others from his church, helped to offer a Bible to Chinese tourists visiting Macau. He was very excited to be able to share the Word. Initially people were not very interested. He took a moment to pray and then went back to offering the Bible to people, but still no one took it. This little boy told his mother, “I prayed that people would take the Bible, but no one did. Why didn’t my prayer work?” His mother gently explained that some visitors would want one soon, so he should keep trying. And people did take the Bible--actually, his team was able to distribute 800 copies that morning! The Southern Cross Project has been able to connect Chinese visitors with God’s Word. Some tourists have also been able to hear a verbal witness, leading some to faith. Pray that the hearts of tourists will be open to receiving God’s Word, which can eventually lead them to a transformed life.
