| Prayer requests on the website are updated every Monday-Friday at 9:30 a.m., EST February 18, 2015 “After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands.” (Revelation 7:9, 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, NKJV). Please pray for Prime Minister Mark Rutte of the Netherlands (northwestern Europe). AMERICAN PEOPLES - “So many things get in the way of prayer. Even when we do make it to our ‘quiet place’ and close our eyes, our own minds betray us with random thoughts. How soon that focused prayer is sidetracked by a to-do list for the coming day! We all struggle when it comes to making time and to concentrating on prayer, probably because it is the most effective, life-changing activity a Christian can be involved in, and the evil one doesn’t like it. Listening to and talking with our Father changes the way we look and feel about others, and changes our circumstances and the circumstances of others around the world. Prayer is powerful and active. When a person is asked to pray for something or someone, they are being invited onto a sacred battlefield and should take the invitation very seriously. We ask you to take up your sword (the Bible), and use the verses that God brings to mind in prayer for our Global Mobilizing Cluster. This is a critical year in which we hope to see many in the Americas go out, joining other teams to reach the unreached, and sharing the gospel across this Globe. Please pray for doors to be opened, resources to be found, and hearts to be receptive to the Word of God. Do not underestimate the difference your prayers make in the lives of others. Thank you.” (Please contact us if you would like to receive our Global Mobilizing Cluster newsletter.) NIAMEY, NIGER (NEE-ah-may) - Missionary Ben Sustar meets with university students two mornings a week to dialogue about life issues and what the Bible has to say about God’s plans for our lives. These students are engaged in these discussions and are serious seekers. They regularly take the Scripture that was discussed back to their friends and family and continue the dialog about the verses. Ask God to give Ben wisdom and insight into their heart issues as he shares with them. Ask God to draw these students--and their families--into a relationship with Him.
