Prayer requests on the website are updated every Monday-Friday at 9:30 a.m., EST October 24, 2014 "God reigns over the nations; God is seated on his holy throne.” (Psalm 47:8, 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 Prime Minister Kaj Leo Johannessen of Faroe Islands (North Atlantic Ocean between Iceland and Norway). SWAHILI-SPEAKING ARABS OF EAST AFRICA (swah-HEE-lee) - Looking up with big brown eyes, she responded, “I have read about baptism, and I want to get baptized, but my husband will not allow me. He wants me to wait.” Immediately the believer understood the tug on this sweet sister’s heart--a desire to honor God and a desire to submit to her husband. “I will wait, because I believe that one day my husband will believe and we can be baptized together.” Please ask the Father to draw family members to Himself together. Pray Psalm 22:27-28 on behalf of Swahili-speaking Arab families: “All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn to the Lord, and all the families of the nations shall worship before you. For the kingship belongs to the Lord and He rules over the nations.” WOLOF OF SENEGAL AND THE GAMBIA (WUHL-uf) - “Chess” is a crossroads city in Senegal, but the thick walls of a spiritual stronghold can be found there: occult practice mixed with Islam in this 98 percent-Muslim community. Viewing it like Jericho, the local pastors have been working to ring the city with small village groups of believers, and now feel that it’s time to “blow the trumpet” and enter the city. The Lord told Joshua to march around Jericho for seven days, and on the seventh day to shout at the blast of the trumpet to bring down the walls. Pray each of the seven days of October 25-31, asking that the strongholds will be broken, the Lord’s mighty right arm will be seen, and the spiritual walls will come tumbling down on October 31, as we blast the trumpet of prayer! praying4dwolof@gmail.com   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.)
