Matthew 26:63 But Jesus remained silent. The high priest said to him, "I charge you under oath by the living God: Tell us if you are the Christ, the Son of God." 64 "Yes, it is as you say," Jesus replied. "But I say to all of you: In the future you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty One and coming on the clouds of heaven."
Good morning, Lord, thank you for this promise that you will return, in power and splendor, we look forward to that day, but we realize so many in this world are not ready for your return, please help us bless the lives of others. Please help us share with complete abandonment, please help us work hard and diligently in the fields that are white with harvest.
Lord, we pray for the persecuted church in Burma (Myanmar), thank you for the 3,700 congregations who are there today because of the faithful sacrifice of Adoniram and Anne Hudson (America’s first foreign missionaries), please help us follow their example as they followed you to the ends of the earth.
We pray for the unreached people of the day, the Minyak of China, 24,000 people among whom there are no known Christians or Christian missionaries, who “all … adhere to Tibetan Buddhism. They observe Tibetan festivals and make pilgrimages to Tibetan holy sites.” We thank you that there is evidence that missionaries have been in their midst in the past (a missionary serving on the outskirts of their territory observed that the associate his presence with the availability of medicine for their sick, a sign that medical missions served in the area in the past). We pray for your word to be translated to their language, we pray for other resources to be available to share your love in their language.
We pray for By the Hand, thank you for this unique organization, please help them continue to do cutting edge ministry among the children of Caprini Green, please help them honor you with the stewardship of the lives of these precious little ones.
