April 17 Prayer

Regions/UUPGs: Thank You for the woman in Gafsa who is hungry to read the Bible. May she voraciously read it and share it with others.

Petition from a Tunisian Believer: I am from Ben Arous. I chose to follow Jesus this year. I love reading the Bible and learning more about God. Two years ago my father died. Please pray for my mother and sister. I have been sharing the gospel with them.

Pray Hebrews 11 for Tunisia: “By faith Noah, being warned by God concerning events as yet unseen, in reverent fear constructed an ark for the saving of his household…” (Hebrews 11:7a) We pray for many heads of household, who like Noah, would take outrageous risks for the sake of saving their families.

Petition Against Spiritual Barriers: Distractions can be a major obstacle to spiritual growth. Tunisians who begin a relationship with Jesus, sometimes find themselves distracted by jobs, relationships, health, and the worries of this world. Even when Christians pray, sometimes they find it hard to pray without distraction. Pray that Tunisian Christians will have clarity as they pray and grow in the Word.

Praise the One True God: The LORD alone is Lover. You love all that You made — the heavens, the earth, and all the nations. (Psalm 145:9) “The Lord is good to all,
and his mercy is over all that he has made.”
