Listen to the World, Listen to the King

And whatever you ask in prayer, you will receive, if you have faith.” Matthew 21:22 ESV.

God calls us to speak to Him through prayer, providing a foundation for a closer relationship with our creator. Every Thursday I will post world and national events for you to pray for. By praying for others around us, not only do we acknowledge their need, but also acknowledge our need for Christ to come into our lives.
 
Continue pray for the presidential election in November.
Pray for all those affected by Hurricane Sandy; pray for families that have lost homes, loved ones, crops, livelihoods and their businesses. Pray that they are able to get the support and care that they need to continue forward.
During a Halloween celebration in Colombia, an explosion went off and two were killed and three children were injuried.
Pray for the victims’ friends and family, and for a speedy recovery for the children.
On Wednesday, a Lahore school was burned by a mob that claimed a teacher insulted the Prophet Muhammad. The school was a school for girls and was considered a good educational facility in Lahore.
Pray for the safety of the teacher and principal. Also, pray for all the girls that are now denied their education because their school building has been burned.
Amnesty International reported that Nigerian security forces and militant Islamist group have tortured and killed many in the Muslim north. On Sunday, a Christian church was bombed, killing eight.
Pray for the people of Nigeria and pray for their government, that the right people will led these people. Also, pray that the people can come together despite their religious differences.
