2 Thessalonians 3:1 (NLT)

Amen! Thank you for agreeing with us in prayer!

The Prayer Words team

1. Nigeria: Kathy ran literacy training in early March for 20+ new literacy teachers in three neighbouring languages, Bokyi, Yala and Kukele. They have all had the Bible or the New Testament for forty years, but their literacy programs had languished. Thank God that the course renewed their commitment and capacity to teach.

2. Nigeria: Pray each new teacher will start a class that promotes God’s Word.

3. Red Sea Counselling: Give thanks for Mark and Lorene and their team, who have established the Red Sea Counselling Centre to support and strengthen Christian cross-cultural workers. Pray for our Father’s protection over everyone who is a part of this wonderful service.

4. Red Sea Counselling: Continue to ask God to raise up who he wants as the new CEO.

5. Malaysia: God’s work in Malaysia is accelerating. Since 2019, the number of languages without any Scripture has fallen from 45 to 32. Praise the Lord!

6. The Lanas Lobu of Malaysia are an indigenous group that are still without God’s Word. They live on the tropical island of Borneo. Ask the Lord of the harvest for workers to share the Good News of his love with them.

7. Most Lanas Lobu believe that objects, plants and animals possess spirits. Many live in fear of these spirits. Pray that the love of God floods their hearts, freeing them from all fear.

8. Lanas Lobus: The culture and language of Lanas Lobu speakers are threatened by the majority culture, religion and language. Pray that they will know their value, that God loved them so much that he gave his only Son to reconcile them to himself.
