URGENT PRAYER
IMB
DECEMBER 4, 2009

AFRICA. Urgent prayer is needed for a situation involving a Baptist convention in an unstable country in southern Africa. Attempts are underway to discredit convention leaders and have them arrested on fabricated charges. Pray for the protection of everyone from threatened physical harm. Pray for wisdom and safety for national believers and missionaries as they work to resolve these issues. Pray that Satan’s schemes will be revealed. Pray that national believers will stand against these schemes. Pray that they will remember that a believer’s armor does not protect their backs, teaching us that we are not to retreat from evil. Pray that truth will be known at every turn, exposing all lies.

Please continue to pray for Mrs. Jeanette McGehee as she and her doctors plan the next steps in her treatment.

Continue to pray for Mrs. Faye Price and her family.  “Miss” Faye’s heart surgery was a year ago yesterday.  It has been a difficult year for her and for her family.  God continues to walk by their side day-by-day.  Pray for the medical staff as they work to overcome an infection.

Dr. Earl Council’s test Monday did not show a problem.  The current plan is to give him more blood Monday.  Keep praying for his return to good health.

Caleb Estay is doing well following his surgery Tuesday.  God has faithfully answered many prayer on Caleb’s behalf.  He will be carefully monitored in the hospital for a while longer.

Bro. Butch Reviere has one more day of medical tests today.  Next week he has another day of tests and meets with the doctor to learn the “game plan”.  Continue to pray for Bro. Butch and his doctor.

Who's Missing? Whose Mission?
Peoples of Iran

Tucking away a JESUS film and a few Bibles in her belongings, Zahra* boards a bus in the capital city of Tehran to share the Gospel with relatives in the Iranian countryside.

Zahra is taking a risk by carrying evangelistic material in the Islamic Republic of Iran. Publishing and distributing Bibles is illegal. Converting to Christianity and sharing the Gospel can be punishable by prison or death.

Despite the risks, Zahra felt burdened to act after seeing her tribe — the Bakhtiari — listed as an unreached people group in International Mission Board material her house church pastor had given her.

While it is safer to share the Gospel in small home groups to escape notice, the Lord gave Zahra boldness when the movie being shown on the bus malfunctioned. She handed the JESUS film to the driver, who played it all the way through.

Eight of the 40 people on the bus told her they were interested in becoming Christians. During home visits, Zahra led the driver, his wife and their three grown children to the Lord — as well as her own sister.

Though there are restrictions against Christian workers living in Iran, giving through the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering and the Cooperative Program enables personnel to share the Gospel with Iranians living in various parts of the world, disciple Christian refugees and train house church leaders when they can travel outside their country.

Pray
Pray for Christians who risk their lives to share the Gospel in Iran. Pray for the peoples of Iran to be able to hear and read God’s Word. Uplift workers as they find ways to help Iranians know Jesus as Lord and Savior.

From Trisha (Mrs. Dwayne) Wilson

Thanks, Friends, for praying for the outreach in our home for Abby Grace’s class. Eight kids came,  2 moms stayed, and the rest of the moms dropped their kiddos off  at our house. Things went well except for some minor distractions from one of my twins….I’ll let you guess which one. Praying my kids will be the well behaved ones for our outreach to Graham’s class tomorrow! Please pray for us tomorrow at 4!

Love,

CHARGED, BUT JUSTIFIED

A local policeman had just finished his shift one cold November evening and was at home with his wife. “You just won’t believe what happened this evening.  In all my years on the force I’ve never seen anything like it!”

“What happened?”

“I came across two guys down by the canal, one of them was drinking battery acid and the other was eating fireworks.”

“Drinking battery acid and eating fireworks!!  What did you do with them?”

“I charged one and let the other one off.”  <insert GROAN here>

Spiritually speaking, those of us who are Christians have been both “charged” and “let off.”  We are charged with sin (and rightfully so, for we are guilty).  “For we have previously charged both Jews and Greeks that they are all under sin.” (Rom. 3:9)

But, those of us who are Christians who have put on Christ have also been “let off” because Jesus Christ has paid the price for our sins.  We have been justified, “just as if I’d” never sinned.  “Therefore let it be known to you, brethren, that through this Man is preached to you the forgiveness of sins; and by Him everyone who believes is justified from all things from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses.” (Acts 13:38-39)

To be charged is a frightful thing (those of you who have received tickets can vouch for that).  To have a judge say, “I find you guilty, but I’m going to pay the fine for you” is inconceivable.  Yet, that’s exactly what has happened!  May our lives demonstrate the gratitude we feel.

Have a great day!

~Hebrews 10:24 (TLB)~

David Allen got a release to go back to work.  Thank God for his return to better health. Pray he gets better and better.

Mrs. Ann Chapman had her halo removed yesterday.  She still wears some of the other “equipment”, but will get her next halo in heaven.  Thank God for her progress.

Mr. Cete Dillon is doing better.  If all goes well today, he may come home today or tomorrow.  Keep him in your prayers.

Pray for Robby Lynn C. Kirby.  She’s been having health issues again.

From Faye Raborn

Update on Malaysia Garner..remember she was born October 1 and weighed 1# after losing some ounces in the first few days and now tops the scales at 3# 6oz. The Lord surely has His hand on Malaysia and the medical staff in Jackson who care for her 24 hours a day. Many medical problems still prevail. We know God performs miracles far beyond our understanding. Bryan and Donisha THANK everyone for prayers that have been sent up for their precious little baby girl. Please continue praying and believing in the days ahead as Malaysia faces her struggle each day.

Who's Missing? Whose Mission?
Vietnamese of Cambodia

Tonle Sap, the largest freshwater lake in Southeast Asia, is dotted with numerous floating villages occupied by much of Cambodia’s Vietnamese population. Because so many Vietnamese are fishermen and find it difficult to gain land rights in Cambodia, they prefer to live on the water in tight-knit communities. They take care of each other — from sharing generated electrical power to caring for one another’s children.

Most residents in the floating village of Kbal Taol had never heard the name of Jesus — but that changed in March 2008. A Christian worker named David* visited the villagers to tell them about the One who is a fisher of men. During one of David’s many visits a Vietnamese man named Tim* became especially interested, so David gave him a Bible. On one of David’s subsequent visits, Tim invited David to his home for dinner.

After dinner, the talk turned to spiritual things. Tim had begun reading the Bible David gave him and had many questions. Around 3 a.m., Tim accepted Christ.

“That is the longest visitation I’ve ever had,” David said with a smile.

Tim is the first believer in Kbal Taol. By God’s grace, he will not be the last.

Pray
Pray that other Vietnamese in Kbal Taol and surrounding villages will be open to the Gospel and will put their faith in Jesus Christ.

J. EDGAR HOOVER ran the FBI, no question about it…
As a result, almost all of his subordinates were on the lookout for ways to impress their powerful boss. A young FBI man was put in charge of the FBI’s supply department. In an effort to cut some costs and impress his boss, he reduced the size of the office memo paper. One of the new memo sheets soon ended up on Hoover’s desk. Hoover took one look at it, determined he didn’t like the size of the margins on the paper, and quickly scribbled on the memo, “Watch the borders!”

The memo was passed on through the office. For the next six weeks, it was extremely difficult to enter the United States by road from either Mexico or Canada. The FBI was watching the borders. Why was the FBI watching the borders? They thought they had received a warning from their chief. But they hadn’t. They had transformed an innocuous comment into a solemn warning.  Steve Farrar

Who's Missing? Whose Mission?
Berber people of North Africa

Keith Jones (name changed) often stopped in at the small shop across the street from his home in a North African city.

Sometimes it was just to pick up bread or fruit, but Keith always tried to share Gospel truths with the Berber shop owner, practicing the Berber language he was learning.

He and his wife, Susan (name changed), both from South Carolina, say the shop owner viewed Keith as a “person of God” because of his conversations.

One day the shopkeeper told Keith that he should be an imam, a spiritual leader in a mosque. The Berber man explained: “We live up here and we speak [the Berber language], and these imams come here and they preach to us in Arabic … and we don’t understand a word that they are saying.

“But you come and talk to us about God and you’re doing it in our own language.”

“It was as if, for the first time, he realized that God could speak his own language, too,” Susan recalls.

Keith and Susan are Bible translators, working to complete a translation of the New Testament into the Berber heart language — something the Berber people have never had. Southern Baptists play a vital role in getting the Gospel to the Berbers through their gifts to the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering.

Pray
Pray for Keith and Susan’s team to develop relationships with more Berber men and women with whom they can test these vital materials.

Pray that they and other translators will be able to quickly complete their New Testament project, communicating in language that is clear, natural and accurate.

A COUPLE MARRIED for 15 years began having more than usual disagreements…

They wanted to make their marriage work and agreed on an idea the wife had.  For one month they planned to drop a slip in a “Fault” box.  The boxes would provide a place to let the other know about daily irritations.  The wife was diligent in her efforts and approach: “leaving the jelly top off of the jar,” “wet towels on the shower floor,” “dirty socks not in hamper,” on and on until the end of the month.  After dinner, at the end of the month, they exchanged boxes.  The husband reflected on what he had done wrong.  Then the wife opened her box and began reading.  They were all the same, the message on each slip was, “I love you!”

4 “Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up;
5 does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil;
6 does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth;
7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.”
1 Corinthians 13:4-7

Thanks for praying today!

Week of Prayer for the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering – Day Three

Who's Missing? Whose Mission?
Lezghi people of the Caucasuses

Fear of the supernatural is part of daily life for the Lezghi people, who make their homes in the Caucasus Mountains of Central Asia and Eastern Europe.

Though they profess to be Muslim, nearly all Lezghi wear amulets or charms to ward off evil spirits; broken teapots hung from homes and thorns hung from vehicles’ rearview mirrors serve the same purpose. Holy places called pirs (pronounced peers) provide Lezghis a place to offer sacrifices and consult witch doctors to garner favor with spirits.

Most of the more than 650,000 Lezghis have never heard the Gospel. Southern Baptist workers Carl and Amy Stroller (names changed), from Wake Forest, N.C., are working to change that.

But progress is slow and there are few workers. Carl and Amy have served among the Lezghi for more than 10 years and seen little results. But that doesn’t stop them from sharing.

Today the Strollers are busy nurturing a Lezghi church they helped start and are looking for new opportunities to tell others about Jesus. Despite the challenges they face, they remain faithful to the task.

“The biggest hardship working with the Lezghi is their overall resistance to the Gospel,” Carl says. “We thought these people only needed to hear about Jesus and they would start coming to faith. Their eyes have truly been blinded.”

Pray

Pray that God will open the hearts of the Lezghi and protect the Strollers from discouragement.

Who's Missing? Whose Mission?
Peoples of Ethiopia

As the sun rises in Ethiopia, thousands of people make their way to church. They worship, sing and hear sermons delivered by priests in an ancient language they do not understand.

The people place their faith in a religion with many roots in the Bible — Christianity and Old Testament traditions. This religion, however, has lost touch with biblical truth through the years.

Many worship saints and demons. They believe there are more than a dozen paths to heaven. They do not have any assurance of salvation and lack understanding of who Jesus Christ is. Most put their trust in Saint Mary.

More than 42 million people in the Horn of Africa claim this religion as “truth.”

Christian workers Renee and Ed (names changed), have dedicated their lives to sharing the Good News with the people of Ethiopia. More than 90 percent are illiterate and unable to read the Bible in their own language.

Pray
Pray for Renee and Ed as they build relationships with them and share that the only way to heaven is through God’s Son, Jesus.

Pray the people Renee and Ed meet in Ethiopia will be open and receptive to the friendship and message of hope they offer.

Pray that more workers will be called to help spread the Gospel message.

GOING AGAINST THE FLOW

The story is told about a woman who called her husband on his car phone as he was on his way home from work and she said, “Honey, you need to be careful.  I just saw on the news that there’s some nut driving the wrong way on the Interstate.”  Her husband said, “There’s not just one nut, there’s hundreds of them!”

Have you ever felt that way?  Have you ever felt like trying to do God’s will makes you go the wrong way down the road?   All the traffic’s coming the other way.  Have you ever thought, “If everybody’s going this way, it’s so hard to go against the flow.  Would God really mind if I just turned around for a little while?”

An article in The London Times a couple of years ago reported that there are currently about 200 million Christians in over 60 countries who are being persecuted for their faith.  Because we have freedom in the United States to worship God, those of us who live here sometimes we forget just how many people in this world live under oppression – by Communist authorities or Muslim authorities, or authorities who simply oppose God and the people who follow God.

And even if you don’t face governmental oppression, there are no doubt many of you who live with oppression – in your home, in your workplace or at your school – oppressed by a family member or boss or teacher who makes it difficult on you as a Christian.  More and more, we all are living in an anti-God culture.  We live in an environment that makes it difficult at times for us to stand up for God.

We must remember the words of Paul:  “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.” (Romans 12:2)

No matter which way the crowd around you is flowing, may you have the courage to travel the direction that God would have you to travel.

Have a great day!

“For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro

on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him.”

~2 Chronicles 16:9a~

Written by Cheryl Hughes Green in honor of Frances Hughes

Saying good-bye to a special lady, Aunt Frances yesterday. All could learn how she lived; she loved everybody and unconditionally. All she ever wanted was for you to love her back. Her death brought a family and old friends back together to see each other, but most of all to show their love for her. Good-bye Franni e Jo for now, we will see you again soon. Everyone have a bless day with the Lord.

Frances was really that special to all who ever knew her.  She and her family have been gone from this area for many years.  To see people who showed up at the cemetery in her honor yesterday out of love and respect for a humble, loving, hard-working family was special.  I think we are all better people for having known the Hughes family.  What an honor and a blessing to have know Frances and her family!

The Week of Prayer for International Missions and the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering begins today.  Make this a priority!

Who's Missing? Whose Mission?
Peoples of Northern India

At 17, Moses suffered from debilitating arthritis. Like many Orthodox Hindus, he petitioned various gods and goddesses seeking help. As his condition worsened, he began to lose hope. One day a stranger handed him a Gospel tract, and Moses began reading about the Great Physician. He started attending church and soon put his faith in Jesus Christ. Fifteen days later, his arthritis was gone.

Years passed and Moses became a successful businessman, but God convicted him that he needed to do more. Leaving his wealthy lifestyle, Moses journeyed with his wife and children to remote Himalayan villages in northern India to share the Gospel.

But following Jesus is hard. Indian people are willing to “add” Christ as one of their gods, but if they believe in Christ alone, they are persecuted. Many believers are burned alive, raped, mutilated, killed or chased into the surrounding jungles. Moses and his family have been thrown out of their home numerous times after landlords learned of their faith.

Despite the hardships, Moses works alongside International Mission Board missionaries supported by the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering. Together Moses and the missionaries share the Gospel, disciple believers and start house churches.

Pray
Pray that God will give boldness and protection to Moses and other believers in northern India as they share their faith.

“Time is short,” Moses says. “I must go, pray and preach the Gospel.
