Praying for the Nations of the World: Benin, Bhutan, Bolivia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Botswana, Brazil

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 31:4-5, 8-12, 16-18, 20, 25-28, 30 NLT “It is not for kings, O Lemuel, to guzzle wine. Rulers should not crave alcohol. For if they drink, they may forget the law and not give justice to the oppressed … Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves; ensure justice for those being crushed. Yes, speak up for the poor and helpless and see that they get justice. Who can find a virtuous and capable wife? She is more precious than rubies. Her husband can trust her, and she will greatly enrich his life. She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life … She goes to inspect a field and buys it; with her earnings she plants a vineyard. She is energetic and strong, a hard worker. She makes sure her dealings are profitable; her lamp burns late into the night … She extends a helping hand to the poor and opens her arms to the needy … She is clothed with strength and dignity; and she laughs without fear of the future. When she speaks, her words are wise, and she gives instructions with kindness. She carefully watches everything in her household and suffers nothing from laziness. Her children stand and bless her. Her husband praises her … Charm is deceptive, and beauty does not last; but a woman who fears the LORD will be greatly praised.”
