pray for the Alxa Mongols!!

“…our gospel came to you not simply with words, but also with power, with the Holy Spirit, and with deep conviction.” 1 Thessalonians 1:5

Deep conviction! This is what the Alxa Mongols must have to remain faithful to Islam. They are standing alone among those who practice other religious faiths. Sometimes they are not accepted, even by other Mongol peoples. Only God’s Spirit, moving and working in the hearts of each people group, will draw them to the conviction that only Christ can save sinners.

Pray for the Alxa Mongols to soon have a deep conviction that Jesus is the only way, the only truth and the only light of the world.

pray for Takashi [JAP]

from Monday Night's prayer classes we learnt that

PRAYER + EVANGELISM (with Holy Spirit Power) produces (in God's time) THE SALVATION OF SOULS!

i felt like i was walking on "prayer clouds" (somewhat) during my time with Takashi yesterday!
i felt very blessed as he share his life with me & gave me interesting insights into Japanese culture  (eg their excitement at peeling off sunburnt skin) & why they regard religions with suspicion . . .





:D blessing me with a good, cheap phone plan ($9.90/mth) that lets me sms out to my prayer supporters fairly frequently ;)
 
[if you don't receive my prayer smses & would like to, let me know! :D]

:D taking control of our time together over lunch!:D  blessing us with $3 off vouchers at the Wintergarden Food Court for a a good, cheap lunch! ;) ($2.20=tuna sandwhich with cheese! X-D)

:D blessing Brisbane with so many free English conversation classes for people like Takashi to go to!
:D blessing Takashi with a good spiritual family to attend

(see http://www.engagecitychurch.com/)
:D blessing me with an opportunity to share the gospel with him -
- through asking if he's come to learn more about Jesus during his stay in Aus (he's going back soon), he talked about Christmas & Easter - i asked if he understood how it affects his life NOW, giving a natural door opener to sharing the gospel!! :)
- he was convicted of sin, fearful of the certainty of the hell he's headed to & willing to repent & trust Jesus . .. said he'd do that as soon as possible (knowing the brevity & unpredictability of life!).. i asked him if there was anything holding him back from doing that now? i think he still has questions . . . do pray for his salvation!!!
*PRAY*

Christ manifest His victory & preemimence over every obstacle hindering Takashi from coming to Jesus in repentance & faith! before it's too late!~thanks~! GOD WORKS WHEN WE PRAY~!!*** ETERNITY WILL SHOW THE FULL FRUIT OF OUR PRAYERS***


* give Takashi open eyes to see Jesus, The Lover of his soul & ears to hear Jesus calling him by name, drawing him to Himself & a heart to respond to His Word in faith to pass from death to life!


"I can guarantee this truth: Those who listen to what I say and believe in the one who sent me will have eternal life. They won't be judged because they have already passed from death to life." - Jesus John 5:24

* God in His mercy would not let Takashi waste his life giving glory to anyone/anything else but save him so he might bring glory & pleasure to Jesus!

* have mercy on Takashi, send him back 'home' an eternally-changed soul, to join the missionary force He's raising up there & linkhim to a good body of believers he can encourage & be encouraged by in The Faith!

* give us grace to embrace 'foreign strangers' & lovingly show them the way to the Fathers' love, not wasting a moment in our selfish precoccupations & distractions but redeeming the time - Judgment Day is coming soon!

(yes, i too easily give in to selfish indifference to the fate of lost souls too :-(





:D PRAISE! :D

praise & pray for Ryan, Martina, Felicia, Sonnia, Jin, Ruby, Vincent, Ikuko, Isaac, Sooyoung, Jenny, Fabio [ITA, KOR, TW, JAP]


 
those i met through English corner on Tuesday!

 
:D PRAISE! :D

:D His Grace, as AMAZING as it is, is TRUE!

:D :D bringing them here!


*PRAY*


* so work in their lives [as He did in John Newton's life -- the writer of "Amazing Grace"] so they too would join in the praises of His glorious grace!

* give them a Divine discontent with themeselves & this world, causing them to hunger & thirst to know this God of AMAZING grace!

* reveal Jesus as The True Lord to these precious souls, bring them to repentance & faith in Jesus Christ, The Only Saviour before it's too late!


* provide them with friends / accomodation/jobs that will go towards the ends prayed for above :)


* work by His Spirit through all the 'English corners' globally to draw lost souls into Living, Personal Relationship with Himself!


see http://ibrisbane.net/englishcorner - look for the "World Free English Classes Timetable"


* Nations would be impacted as they send their bright future leaders abroad to study English!


* have mercy on them & send them back to 'home' eternally-changed souls, to join the missionary force He's raising up there!


* keep providing enough teachers/ helpers to keep small group sizes for better quality time with students :)
* keep the other lecture theatre we normally use free (it was being used yesterday so we were all crammed into the meeting room - the noise levels were highly distracting!)

!!~thanks~! GOD WORKS WHEN WE PRAY~!!

*** ETERNITY WILL SHOW THE FULL FRUIT OF OUR PRAYERS- BE ENCOURAGED!!***

pray for Maureen, Katy, & Caitlyn [AUS]

was out his morning for my blood test check-up & while at it, get my $5.50 cashout bonus [for drawing lots of $200 cash out of EFTPOS with my special card ;)] - passed them all a 'women only carpark' tract [pictured]

Maureen took my blood sample, Katy was the clinic receptionist & seemed to be reading the tract quite intently!


Caitlyn was the bank teller who served me - why not serve her with The Only Good News that saves?! :)
:D PRAISE :D


:D the ways He's used gospel tracts to save the lost!

*PRAY*

Christ manifest His victory & preemimence over every obstacle hindering Maureen, Katy, & Caitlyn from coming to Jesus in repentance & faith!

* reveal Christ as INFINITELY desirable & INFINITELY satisfying to them, bringing them to True Repentance & Faith before it's too late!

* we'd see Maureen, Katy, & Caitlyn in heaven worshipping The Lamb because He's Worthy!! along with others there because they in turn passed on this gospel & didn't keep it to themselves!

* have mercy on them, work supernaturally in their hearts to forsake sin, follow Jesus, the Son of God in a life of faith! & not let them waste their lives giving glory to any other than The One who made them & gave His life for them !

order the tract to spread the gospel for yourself! at $5/ per pack of 100, even i'd go for that!! http://www.operation513.com/shop/product_info.php?products_id=29

praise & pray for John, Lily + Matea! (CHI)

Matea is living proof that God answers prayer -  AND He still opens the childless womb TODAY!
~3 years ago, John & Lily were childless . .. John asked me to pray & typical of Father, HE ANSWERED!! :D
so apparently i'm Matea's 'godfather' . .. :P
[someone please explain what that entails for me??!!]
since her birth, John's been saying he'd bring her to "church" someday - until recently they were both too busy to come . . . then finally they did come, ~2 weeks ago i met Matea for the 1st time!! after meeting not-so-little-anymore Matea, it's a beauiful wonder to see a living, breathing, walking, talking ANSWER TO PRAYER~! 
one of my first prayers for them was that He'd give them a child that would lead them into saving relationship with Himself :)
~please join with me to that end~!! ~

"When two of you get together on anything at all on earth and make a prayer of it, my Father in heaven goes into action." Matthew 18:19  [MSG]

pray for the unreached!!


This is good, and pleases God our Savior, who wants all men to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth. 1 Tim. 2:3-4


This is God’s will: that all will come to know Him, and know the truth. Muslim peoples like the Huis are very much concerned with truth. They have embraced a religion that claims divine truth. If you have ever had a Muslim tell you about their beliefs or if you have read the Qur’an, it sounds so true! But yet, it does not lead one to putting one’s faith in the truth of Christ’s atoning sacrifice.

Pray that  Muslims will soon find truth and come to a saving faith in the only Savior.

pray for Khan [KOR]

my bad .. at conversation corner yesterday, i was so precoccupied with tearing out coupons from a free city newspsaper that maybe for the first hour or so, nobody came to talk to me at the table i was at . . .  :S
surely my whole purpose for going there wasn't to help people save some money, but to serve them through English conversation! 
. . . but for some dumb reason i stayed on ripping out coupons . . . :|
then Khan arrived! :D 
he's been preparing for his big IELTS exam & so has been keen to practice his English at every opportunity. i was really humbled - this guy knows words that i don't! :P
he feels guilty for not going to 'church' for a long time even though he's not a christian! :|
- got the impression he was very proud & 'full of himself' in retrospect, i truly felt like there were many opportunities to direct him to Jesus in our conversation that i failed to take advantage of :"(

*sigh*
i feel burdened to pray for his lost soul to not waste his life chasing after the wind!
do join me!

pray for those without God's Word in their mother language!!

…and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. 2 Timothy 3:15


Have you considered what it might be like for the thousands of people in today’s world like the Dongs who do not know how to read and do not even have excerpts from the Bible in their own language through gospel recordings? They do not have Bible programs to listen to on the radio. Think of the help and comfort you receive daily from God’s Word—to say nothing of the most basic knowledge of new life in Jesus Christ.

Pray today for those who are struggling to make God’s Word clear and understandable to people groups where the knowledge of Christ has not broken through. Pray also that God will provide His Word for those who have never heard it.

those i met through English corner on Tuesday! [discussed Happiness]


:D PRAISE! :D

:D bringing them here!



:D "The grand essentials of happiness" [something to do, something to love, and something to hope for] can all be found in JESUS!

:D Father wants people from ALL NATIONS to come & be glad in Him!

*PRAY*
- somehow we got onto the question of 'who do you live for / who owns you' - many in my group said 'myself' :"( how tragically saddening! 
* Jesus free them from the awful tyranny of 'self' to rejoice & be glad in Him!

* stir up a hunger in these precious souls to want to know The One who Alone is The Source of All True Joy!

* we'd see these dear lost souls in heaven, rejoicing in Jesus much because they received revelation of Jesus, along with others who're there because they didn't keep the treasure of His Kingdom to themselves!!

* work by His Spirit through all the 'English corners' globally to draw lost souls into Joyful,  Personal Relationship with Himself!  see www.yourenglishcorner.net/ - look for the "World Free English Classes Timetable"


* Nations would be impacted as they send their bright future leaders abroad to study English to add to the multi-cultural beauty of Christ's Bride, The Church!

pray for the unreached!!


...He has spoken to us by His Son, Whom He appointed heir of all things, and through Whom He made the universe. Hebrews 1:2


This great statement affirms that Jesus Christ shapes the boundaries of human history. He is the beginning, the Creator of all things, the Maker of everything that exists. And He is the end, the focal point to which all history is moving. We know this by His Word, which the Western Lawas and many others now lack. Since Christ is the beginning and end of human history, what a tragedy that so many nations are cut off from any effective means of learning about Him!

Pray that soon and very soon the remaining unreached people groupS will receive this good news that Jesus is the beginning and the end.

pray for the Naruo of China

... if this doesn't move you to pray .. what will?!


“Maybe this year,” a young husband pulled his tearful wife close. They lit incense and offered a sacrifice to the spirits. She remembered the baby girl she never had a chance to hold. The mid-wife said it would be easier that way, but it didn’t seem easy when the midwife suffocated the newborn. She would never forget her first born, who would never nurse at her leaking breasts.

China’s one-child policy leaves many empty arms, as some baby girls are not allowed to live. The Naruos pray and offer sacrifices to evil spirits, asking for baby boys. Girls born to them are not valued. Yet, the Almighty Creator counts each one as His own special treasure. He has a purpose for everyone!

The Naruo people are a small group of about 15,000. They are one of more than 100 Yi subgroups in Yunnan Province. The tribe has not been specifically targeted by missionaries and has no known Christ followers. They worship spirits. In the 1800s, Welsh missionary Griffin John cried, “Shall not China remain in its state of darkness and death because of the worldliness and deadness of the people of God?” We must answer, “No!” We care about the Naruo people. We will pray, and God will answer.

Ask our faithful Father to reveal His truth to the Naruo people. Pray that they will accept the light and life He offers.


Then he took his firstborn son, who was to succeed him as king, and offered him as a sacrifice on the city wall. The fury against Israel was great; they withdrew and returned to their own land. 2 Kings 3:27




In this passage, we have a grim reminder of the connection between witchcraft and blood sacrifice. What a tragic combination it is! Though God is sovereign, the powers of hell try to gain advantage as they did in this passage. The Naruo people, likewise, look to such empty gods for their blessings.

Pray that the Naruo people will soon understand that they must look only to Jehovah Jireh as their provider.

pray for the Zaomin!!

“are you tired? worn out? burned out on religion? come to Me. Get away with me and you'll recover your life. I'll show you how to take a real rest. walk with Me and work with Me and watch how I do it - learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won't lay anyting heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with Me and you'll learn to live freely and lightly. Matthew 11:28 [TMSG]

The Zaomin people live by what they can do. They only hope that good works can get them to heaven. They are weary and burdened. Most of them have never heard of Christ, their wonderful Savior, who loves them and only wants them to trust Him. Though what we do matters to God, we need to allow Him to take over our lives. Only then will we enjoy the rest that He has for us.

Pray that the Zaomin people will seek and find the rest God has for them.

pray for the Khampa Tibetans!!

i found this really sickening.. :"(
~244,000 Western Khampa live in the rough terrain of Chinese-occupied Tibet. They suffer from many health problems including tuberculosis and a high mortality rate among their children and mothers. Some medical groups are helping them.

BUT!! they are also getting some “health care” that they do not want. The International League for Human rights said, “Reports indicate that Tibetan women suffer forced sterilizations and late-term abortions at the hands of state healthcare workers.” According to the Tibet Information Network (TIN), “a considerable element of coercion is applied to women, particularly in rural areas, through the mechanisms of fines and administrative structures introduced by these officials.” For example, a 61-year-old Tibetan reported that poor women from his village, regardless of the size of their families, were summoned by Chinese authorities to undergo birth control measures. If they refused, the authorities fined them 1000 yuan, approximately two-thirds of the per capital net annual income for the farmers and herders who comprise 85 percent of the Tibetan Autonomous Region’s Tibetan population.” http://www.ilhr.org/ilhr/regional/tibet/womenrights.html

One of the Tibetan subgroups that is experiencing these atrocities is the Khampa Tibetans. They practice a combination of Tibetan Buddhism and the spirit rituals of bon worship and shamanism.

Pray that God will send His gospel to the Khampa so they can be freed from their difficult and oppressive life. Pray for Christ to speed the day when the Khampas and other nations will experience true justice.

Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations. Jeremiah 1:5



This verse points out one of the many tragedies that come from abortions. Those who are aborted will never have the chance to make a difference. Jeremiah was created to be a prophet. Though the Khampa Tibetans are not following the Lord, we can only imagine what He could have done with each of their children if they had not been aborted.


Pray for God to intervene on behalf of the Khampa Tibetans who are being abused by their government. Pray for the Khampas to find God’s purpose for their lives.

beautiful song!! X-D

Hope you will be uplifted by this beautiful song!! :)



http://gloriousgrace.net/saucer/saucer.html

rejoice with me & pray for me~!!

.. ~2 weeks of bad sleep, 4 colds + EXPLOSIVE diarrhea + headaches, ... still, my Beloved is mine & i am His and His banner over me is LOVE!!! :) X-D


Recently did a study on Rom 5:1-11, at the end was asked:


Are you rejoicing in the hope of the glory of God?


Reflect on Psalm 63:1-3, Isaiah 40:10-31 and Psalm 73:25,26 What attitude do you have towards any difficult situations you are facing now?


Hooray for Him turning my gaze UPWARD at a time I felt like I was in a pit of sh*t [--quite literally!]!

HE IS ENOUGH~!!

Food for thought from an *AWESOME* online discipleship curse I’ve started at http://www.embracethecross.org/ -
“RELATIONSHIP with Jesus is something everybody claims to have, unfortunately they don’t. When i say relationship i mean the kind King David spoke of in PSLMS 23 & 42.The majority of so called “believers” don’t want that kind of relationship.


Why? because it is easier to have relationship with the things of God than the God of the things!”


How true that is . .. :’(


May He strip us of ‘things’ so we can focus on Him & relationship with Him!


Is this your hearts’ desire?

once again, my praying friends, I Humbly ask your prayers as we journey on to HIM! :)

if you have any questions / comments of my life, Don’t be shy~! my life's an open book ;)

++ praise & prayer points from previous prayer posts mostly still apply, but for the sake of space I’ll leave them out ;)

:D rejoice with me! :D


:D keeping me joy-FULL in my 4th round of the cold this winter!

:D leading me to good books to devour when I can’t sleep!

:D continually showing me how _incredibly richly_ blessed I am – all because He is God & He’s called me to be His son! .. to list just a few blessings:

:D disability – with less of me there is more of God and His rule! XD

:D contentment with just who I am -no more, no less and so being a proud owner of everything that can't be bought!

:D working up in me a good appetite for God!

:D there is NO me without Jesus~!

:D stripping me of ‘things’ [even health!] so I can focus on Him & relationship with Him!

:D discovering more of His gracious intervention in the life of my family that we are as blessed as we are now~!

*PRAY*


* I’d live by seeking to abide in Christ Jesus and walk in The Spirit, focusing only on Jesus’ life manifested in me!

* show me who I can intentionally input His life into to strengthen & encourage their faith!

* keep me Focused on being, not doing. Then when it IS time for me to do something, i can be confident my labor of love will be the work that God blesses
[as I can’t do much these days, it’s easy to get down at myself!]


See great article: http://theschoolofchrist.org/articles/the-work-god-blesses.html

* I’d daily respond to His invitation to revolve life around Him, NOT self! To live HIS purposes, to receive all I need from Him, to share the concerns of HIS heart.

~thanks~!!


Philemon 1:22 Because of your prayers, I can I fully expect God to answer them~! :)

please tell me how i can best support you before His throne of Grace too!


if Father so leads you to be my regular prayer supporter, do check out this prayer blog every now & then :)


Looking forward to hearing from you how i can best support you in prayer & praises!!

pray for the unreached!!

“Let us therefore make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will fall….” Hebrews 4:11


What a beautiful paradox: make every effort to enter that rest. This verse simply summarizes the biblical balance between resting in God’s work and striving to accomplish God’s purposes. Any effort that is not based on a reliance on God’s work is vain and futile. Yet at the same time, we must not sit back complacently because of what God has already accomplished by creation and redemption. We must diligently labor while placing our confidence in God’s power working in and through us to accomplish the task before us.

Pray that you will work faithfully in prayer for the unreached, and that you will rest in the confidence that He will complete your work.

i'm still thankful to my Abba in Heaven for good health & sleep, even though i have NOT been experiencing that!

[no idea why.. it's a vicious cycle of bad-sleep-->tiredness--> sickness--> napping during the day --> more bad sleep --> slow recovery from sickness.]

* Nations would be impacted as they send their bright future leaders abroad to study English!

pray for the unreached!!

Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into His harvest.” Matthew 9:37


That is just what the CIM was doing! What a time to ask! There was a major depression worldwide, curtailing donations. China was a very dangerous land to work at that time. But the harvest was ripe! Looking back at this time period, we notice that efforts of such missionaries later resulted in a strong, growing Chinese Church that is now sending workers to other fields.

Pray that in today’s depressed economy, that people will first consider God’s purposes and be encouraged when they think of the potential harvest.

pray for our brothers & sisters in PAKISTAN! - Christian Professor in Pakistan Beaten for Refusing to Convert

"You are Peter, and I can guarantee that on this rock I will build my church. And the gates of hell will not overpower it." Matt 16:18




Muslim students attacked a Christian professor at the Peshawar University College, this month after he refused their demand to convert to Islam, the instructor told Compass. Psychology professor Samuel John, a father of four who has been teaching at the university for 12 years, said that as he came out of his house on the university campus at 8:30 am on 14 June, about 20 to 25 students rushed and assaulted him. When his wife learned what was happening she ran to help him, but the students beat her as well. Both John and his wife were rushed to Lady Reading hospital, where they were treated for their injuries, with John listed in critical condition. “I am still getting threats,” the professor told Compass. “They say, ‘Leave the university or accept Islam – if you don’t convert, we will kill your family.” Police have refused to register a First Information Report on the incident, he said.

Separately, in Danna village in southern Punjab Province, Muslim administrators told three Christian students in the eighth grade to leave the school because they refused to convert to Islam. A new teacher of Islamic Studies at Government High School Danna urged students in his class, Sunil Masih, Shazia Masih and Nasir Naeem, to convert to Islam, the father of Sunil, Ejaz Masih, told Compass. The parents complained to the principal, who told them, under pressure from other teachers, to remove their children from the school, Masih said. The families have fled the area with their children.

Pray the Lord will fully restore Samuel and his wife. Ask Him to provide for these families. Commit to the Lord all Christian believers in Pakistan where persecution is on the rise. May the Lord strengthen his church and greatly add to their number

pray for the unreached!!


…that at the Name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Philippians 2:10


One day all creatures will bow to acknowledge the universal Lordship of Jesus Christ. Scripture teaches that there are two kinds of people who bow to acknowledge Him: those who do so now, in loving submission to His rule in their lives; and those who will do so at Christ’s coming, in fearful and obligatory submission. At this point in time, the Simeulue people are not willing to acknowledge that Jesus is Lord. It is a source of pride to them that there are no fellowships on their island.

Pray that the Simeulue people will bow their hearts to Him during this acceptable day of salvation. Pray that Christ will lead us to do our part in leading others to bow their knees to Him as well.
