Ramadan 2024

The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me, because the LORD has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the LORD’s favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, and provide for those who grieve in Zion – to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair.

Isaiah 61:1-3 (NIV)

• Pray for Christians and missionaries to take to heart this beautiful picture of what Jesus came to do and that it would be central to their lives and ministries.
• Pray for believers to actively and sacrificially follow the example of Christ, giving up their worldly pleasures for the sake of proclaiming the Good News.
• Pray for the ministries and NGOs in Tanzania that seek to meet the many physical needs that are present. Pray that they would not lose sight of proclaiming the One who will bring true and deep restoration to all of creation.
