“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.
Recently, 129 inmates from a Mexican prison escaped and have yet to be found.
Pray that these prisoners don’t harm others in the community surrounding the prison.
Outside of Georgia (Eurasian country), videos have surfaced, revealing prisoners being abused by their guards. The police reported that the guards involved in the abuse have been arrested.
Pray for the prisoners that were victims of this abuse and help them focus on repentance rather than cruel treatment.
Many were killed and wounded in an al-Shabaab jihadist suicide bombing in Somalia. Three of the dead were journalists, and Omas Faruk Osman, The Nation Union of Somali Journalists secretary-general believes that the bombing was an attack on the journalists specifically.
Pray for the Somali journalists, as well as the Somali people. Pray for their safety and for the loved ones of the deceased.

A man (from the U.S. I believe) writes about the uproar and turmoil in Egypt with historical perspectives and a Godly view.
I'll be praying with you all. I have to really work on keeping myself updated with the news--good, bad and uglier. It's really overwhelming sometimes.
Please keep Israel in prayer as well. Prophecy was being fulfilled during this week with the speeches at the U.N. Christ is soon to return and there are so many that still don't Him. Pray that God will reveal Himself to those who are still lost.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sandra. Yes, I'm an American - living in Egypt. And Erin and your teammates - this is a nice initiative. I hope it is well received on campus. God bless.
