Praying for Sweden, Somalia, South Africa, Spain, Sri Lanka, Sudan, Suriname

Praying for the nations.

For people to know God and Jesus Christ whom He sent, for this is eternal life – John 17:3. For wisdom, financial provision, a healthy psychosocial well-being (spiritual well-being, psychological well-being, physical well-being, and social well-being), and safety of Christian missionaries. For knowledge, wisdom, and protection for the persecuted church so that Christians can worship freely. For the word of God to be available and translated in each language. For the salvation of those persecuting Christians. For the salvation of government leaders. For the salvation of citizens, a healthy psychosocial well-being and peace in the nation. For the hungry to be fed, the poor to be housed, widows and orphans cared for and deliverance from oppression and tyranny. For equal opportunity, liberty, and education. For divided families to be restored and for morality to be honored. For love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, gentleness, goodness, faithfulness, and self-control. For a love for God’s word and a refusal to compromise. For the citizens to live like Jesus Christ in this world – 1 John 4:17.

Prayer: Abba, we ask for Your will to be done in these nations. In Jesus’ precious name, Amen.

Proverbs 27:1-6, 9, 12, 17-21, 23-24 NLT “Don’t brag about tomorrow, since you don’t know what the day will bring. Let someone else praise you, not your own mouth – a stranger, not your own lips. A stone is heavy and sand is weighty, but the resentment caused by a fool is even heavier. Anger is cruel, and wrath is like a flood, but jealousy is even more dangerous. An open rebuke is better than hidden love! Wounds from a sincere friend are better than many kisses from an enemy … The heartfelt counsel of a friend is as sweet as perfume and incense … A prudent person foresees danger and takes precautions. The simpleton goes blindly on and suffers the consequences … As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend. As workers who tend a fig tree are allowed to eat the fruit, so workers who protect their employer’s interests will be rewarded. As a face is reflected in water, so the heart reflects the real person. Just as Death and Destruction are never satisfied, so human desire is never satisfied. Fire tests the purity of silver and gold, but a person is tested by being praised … Know the state of your flocks, and put your heart into caring for your herds, for the riches don’t last forever, and the crown might not be passed to the next generation.”
