“For if, while we were enemies,

we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son,

[then how] much more, having been reconciled,

will we be saved by His life!”

~Romans 5:8, HCSB~

TODAY’S PRAYER
IMB
JULY 12, 2010

“This poor man cried out, and the Lord heard him and saved him out of all his troubles.” (Psalm 34:6a)

WORLD LEADERS. “Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence” (1 Timothy 2:1-2). Please pray today for King Juan Carlos I of Spain (southwestern Europe).

BANGKOK, THAILAND (BANG-kok). R, a Burmese woman, is a member of an international church in Bangkok. Her son studies at a university in southern Thailand. This past Christmas, R and her son handed out Christmas stockings in his city as part of a ministry sponsored by their church. The stockings contained homemade cookies, a Gospel tract, and a pen. R reports that 10 people who received the stockings have now become followers of Jesus. She is asking for help in getting Bibles and tracts to her son and the other believers there. There is a lot of interest in the Gospel among the 50,000 Burmese who live in southern Thailand. Pray for the Burmese church that meets at the international church as they try to organize a trip to deliver the requested discipleship materials and offer training to the local believers. Pray for Baptist representatives Martin and Carrie Chappell, who serve among the international community in Bangkok.

CENTRAL TIBETANS IN ASIA (ti-BEH-tuns). M, a young Central Tibetan Christian, has been overwhelmed with worry recently concerning her relationship with her husband and his family, none of whom are believers. The stress of the confusing situation even caused her to become suicidal. But the Lord saved her from inflicting too much harm, and also blessed her with a picture of reconciliation while she was praying about her circumstances. Petition God for protection from the evil one’s schemes to destroy her and her faith, and ask for reconciliation to be the reality. Pray that M will press into Jesus, daily surrendering her marriage to Him and living to glorify the Lord among her family!
