Many places in this world are desperately in need of our prayers. Men, we must at all times encourage ourselves with the truth that OUR GOD REIGNS.
Can you pray daily with your families for the following great needs?
1. The uprising in Hong Kong by multitudes seeking democracy. We must pray that the church in China will no longer have to be underground and that multitudes of Christian Chinese will be able to openly share Christ to their fellow countrymen.
2. North Korea is much on our hearts because it is the most cruel of all persecutors of Christians. Currently there are three Americans being held in prison for their faith--Kenneth Bae, Jeffrey Fowk (56 Years) sentences to 15 years hard labor in April 2013 for leaving a Bible in his hotel room, and Matthew Todd Miller. Pray for their release as well as others being persecuted brutally. Pray that President Kim Jong-Un, who is worshipped as North Korea's savior will be miraculously converted to Christ or overthrown so that North Korea will be free to preach Christ as in South Korea. We must bind up the powers of darkness that hold North Korea in bondage.
3. Liberia, Sierra Leone, and Guinea where thousands are dying with Ebola and it continues to worsen. I am told that Nana Silver 10 PPM is the best chance we may have to stop Ebola, but the WHO forbids the delivery into these countries. (www.DrRimaTruthReports.com).
4. Victory over ISIS and all Islamic extreme jihadists. This is a most serious matter for continual prayer. We, as families, are on the spiritual side of this battle. As we pray, the powers of darkness and deception are broken so that those who are fighting in the natural can have physical victory. Exodus 17:11 tells us that "When Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed: and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed."
5. Israel and their battle with Hamas. We must pray for protection and wisdom for their Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu. He is trying to convince the world that ISIS is not the only great enemy that must be defeated. Iran has to be stopped from becoming a nuclear now.
We must also pray that the West Bank will be kept for Israel. God speaks through the prophet Ezekiel in Ezekiel 36:10-12: "And I will multiply men upon you, and all the house of Israel, even all of it: and the cities shall be inhabited (this is also referring to the mountains of Samaria which the world calls The West Bank), and the wastes shall be builded. And I will multiply upon you man and beast; and they shall increase and bring fruit: and I will settle you after your old estates, and will do better unto you than at your beginnings: and ye shall know that I am the Lord. Yes, I will cause men to walk upon you, even my people Israel; and they shall possess thee, and thou shalt be their inheritance, and thou shalt no more henceforth bereave them of men."
At the end of the chapter in verse 37 it says, "Thus saith the Lord God; I will yet for this be inquired of by the house of Israel, to do it for them; I will increase them with men like a flock." God has stated His promises, but He wants us to bring them before in prayer. We must pray that USA, the EU, the UN, and France who are all trying to stop Israel building on the West Bank (which is contrary to God's promises) will no longer get in the way of God's purposes for Israel. If we want God on our side, we must stand with God's promises for Israel.
Be encouraged to pray,
