“Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain; and it did not rain on the land for three years and six months. And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit.” (James 5:17-18, 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 President Daniel Ortega Saavedra of Nicaragua (Central America, between Honduras and Costa Rica).

SOUTH ASIAN PEOPLES - The predominant religion of South Asia, Hinduism teaches that one must acquire good karma to end the cycle of reincarnation and reach heaven. There are more than 990 million Hindus in South Asia--that’s three times the entire population of the United States. Ask the Lord to show Hindus who have chosen to follow Christ how to follow Him and still maintain good relationships with their Hindu families and friends. Pray that the local Christian churches will have a better understanding of the Hindu culture, their felt needs, and how better to present Jesus in a culturally sensitive way.

UNIVERSITY STUDENTS IN SEOUL, KOREA - Please pray for a new jobs initiative among a vulnerable people group that will not only provide young people with important vocational skills, but also spiritual training as well. Please ask the Father to provide local resources and mentors and volunteers to help make this program a sustainable success.
