GOSPEL GLEANING PRAYER POINTERS

The Erukula people in India now have believers among them in various stages of Christian growth. Some have believed for 3 or more years. Others are brand new Christians, having believed only in the past few weeks. All are on the road of Christian discipleship and ongoing growth in the ways of God – i.e. they, like us, are experiencing progressive sanctification. Growth in sanctification means learning to trust and believe God even when His Word challenges long-held personal beliefs, family traditions, cultural standards, and other concerns that determine what one believes and how one acts. A salutary verse to pray for the Erukula and us is Psalm 119:138 which says: You have commanded Your testimonies in righteousness, And exceeding faithfulness. May each of us – whether Erukulan or American – have such a settled conviction.
Pray for the 3,282,000 Shuwa Arab (99.5% Islam) in Chad and the 13,000 in Niger (100% Islam). Also known as the “Baggara,” they are semi nomadic primarily raising cattle. Although they are devoted to Islam, they also believe strongly in evil spirits. Their nomadic lifestyle makes it difficult for disciples of Jesus to reach them. Pray that God will call and equip His disciples to reach the Shuwa Arabs. Pray especially for the church cluster partnering with Global Disciples in Niger who feel called to reach this group. For this is what the Lord has commanded us: ‘I have made you a light for the Gentiles, that you may bring salvation to the ends of the earth.’ Acts 13:47
