GOSPEL GLEANING PRAYER POINTERS
  • The natural world around us is a brilliant and moving testimony of the goodness and greatness of God – yet, most folk miss it! Hard to believe, but true. Even in some of the harsher conditions in which folk live, as is true in portions of India, including where the Erukula people live, nature provides eloquent testimonies of God’s existence and power and lovingkindness. As the hymn writer put it, “ . . . sun, moon, and stars in their courses above, Join with all nature in manifold witness to Thy great faithfulness, mercy, and love. As we pray this week for the Erukula people, Psalm 119:64 provides good inspiration: The earth is full of Your lovingkindness, O Lord, Teach me Your statutes. Not only nature, but all the spheres of life are ordered by the Lord. May the Erukula people and the Leidy’s Church people learn His order for every sphere of life.
  • Pray for the Mimi Amdang people in Chad and for the Global Disciples program that is targeting this people group. The Mimi Amdang are mostly farmers in eastern Chad near the Sudan border. They are 100% Muslim and have never heard the gospel of Jesus. The Bible has not been translated into their language and there are no Christian resources available for them. Pray that the Holy Spirit will prepare the Mimi Amdang people to hear the gospel and for open doors for disciples to bring the good news of Jesus to them.  “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” How, then, can they call on the One they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the One of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? [Rom. 10:13-14]
