      [continued from previous message]              14 For He knows how we are formed;       He remembers that we are dust.              Psalm 103              A Psalm of David.              1 Bless the LORD, O my soul: And all that is within me, bless his holy name.       2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, And forget not all his benefits:       3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; Who healeth all thy diseases;       4 Who redeemeth thy life from destruction;       Who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;       5 Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things;       So that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.       6 The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment       For all that are oppressed.       7 He made known his ways unto Moses,       His acts unto the children of Israel.       8 The LORD is merciful and gracious,       Slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.       9 He will not always chide:       Neither will he keep his anger for ever.       10 He hath not dealt with us after our sins;       Nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.       11 For as the heaven is high above the earth,       So great is his mercy toward them that fear him.       12 As far as the east is from the west,       So far hath he removed our transgressions from us.       13 Like as a father pitieth his children,       So the LORD pitieth them that fear him.       14 For he knoweth our frame;       He remembereth that we are dust.              Remember God's promises when You pray              The Lord's prayer              Matthew 6:9-13                     9 "Therefore pray in this manner:       Our Father who is in heaven,       hallowed be Your name.       10 (Mt 3:2; 4:17) Your kingdom come;       Your will be done       on earth, as it is in heaven.       11 (Pr 30:8; Isa 33:16) Give us this day our daily bread.       12 (Ex 34:7; Ps 32:1) And forgive us our debts,       as we forgive our debtors.       13 (1Co 10:13; Jn 17:15) And lead us not into temptation,       but deliver us from evil.       For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen."              9 After this manner therefore pray ye:       Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.       10 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.       11 Give us this day our daily bread.       12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.       13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil:       For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.              6) This come from Praying for Muslims in Canada 2015 (Is there a 2021 edition?)              Prince Edward Island              Total population 146300       Muslim population (est.) 1127              Charlottetown does not currently (fall 2014) have a local CNMM network.       Pray with us for God's people to come together in reaching Muslims       cooperatively across denominational and organisational lines.              More than 200 attended the Eid festival at the end of Ramadan, the Islamic       month of fasting during daylight hours and the reading of the Qur'an, at       the Dar as-Salam mosque in 2014. This second mosque established       in Charlottetown, the other being the Muslims Association of PEI.       As of mid-2014,there are between 250 to 300 families, mostly in Charlottetown.              The Muslims of Charlottetown see their community as symbolically important       for this nation since this is known as the "birthplace of Canada". Yet we were       established as the "Dominion of Canada" with an appeal not only to       monarchial authority, but even more to God's higher Biblical authority as       shown in Psalm 72:8, "May he have dominion from sea to sea,       and from the River to the ends of the earth."       Let us intercede together for:              - the growing Muslim population of Charlottetown and spreading       outward through PEI to encounter the Prince of Peace.       - believers to have faith and vision to reach out to the Muslim Community       in contextual ways to share the Gospel       - churches and ministries to rise up in wisdom, knowledge and understanding,       giving and training, coaching and encouragement to believers reaching       out to Muslims locally.       - a prayer movement to be established, feeding a growing move of Yahweh's       Spirit in His churches and people , and an awakening an openness       and spiritual hunger in Muslims for relationship with the Father       through the Son.              Adding further              30 days of prayer for the Muslim World 24 April to 23 May 2020              Under the Keep Praying page              When the new moon is sighted it marks the beginning of t he new Islamic month       and Eid al-Fitr, the "Festival of Breaking the Fast", will start! After 30 days       of fasting, the Eid celebration at the end of Ramadan is a joyful time that       usually lasts about 3 days. Muslims will buy new clothes, exchange gifts and,       of course, enjoy special foods. In Muslim-majority nations, the streets may be       decorated and festivals will be held.       For many Muslims, Eid-al-Fitr begins with communal prayers at daybreak and the       distribution of money (zakat) to the poor, which is one of the 5 pillars of       Islam.       You can greet Muslim friends during this time by saying "Eid Mubarak",       which means Blessed Eid!"       Ramadan is over for this year, but you can continue to pray for Muslims you       know, and Muslims around the world:       - Despite the unsettling developments in our world today that involve actions       in the name of Islam, there is at the same time a largely untold story about       unprecedented movement to Christ among Muslims. There have been more such       movements of thousands or more new disciples among Muslims in the last three       decades or so than in all the previous history of Christian Muslim       relationships! Pray for this momentum to continue.              Acts 2:12-17 : 17 12 They were all amazed and perplexed, saying to each other,       "What does this mean?"       13 (1Co 14:23) Others mocking said, "These men are full of new wine."              Peter's Speech at Pentecost              14 (Ac 1:26) But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice       and said to them, "Men of Judea and all you who dwell in Jerusalem,       let this be known to you, and listen to my words.       15 For these are not drunk, as you suppose,       since it is the third hour of the day.       16 But this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel:       17 (Isa 44:3; Ac 10:45) 'In the last days it shall be,' says God,       'that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh;       your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,       your young men shall see visions,       and your old men shall dream dreams.'              - Pray for Christian workers an organisations focused on seeing effective       discipleship movements among Muslim people.              - Ask the Holy Spirit to continue to inspire you to have god's heart for       Muslims, to see them as He does, and to be the light that then to Jesus.              Matthew 5:14-15 : 14 "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a       hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do men light a candle and put it under       a basket, but on a candlestick. And it gives light to all who are in the       house."              Ideas for prayer              - Pray for opportunities to show the love of Christ to Muslims around you       - Pray for, and offer generous hospitality to, those you know who are serving       Christ among Muslim people -              Romans 12:13 "contribute to the needs of the saints, practice hospitality."       - When you gather with fellow believers, remember to pray for Muslims       throughout the year and encourage them to also participate in 30 Days!              My paternal side is of Muslim heritage and will offer this section to further       call for Muslim converts to Christian and any other converts to Christianity              (Hindus, Jews, aboriginals Canadian, atheists, secular humanists, ...)                     7) Prayers for the nation (Canada) coming from Prayer map of Canada              http://www.ehc.ca              20th Day of the Month              a) Pray for the children of Canada, that they would come to know       Jesus Christ as their Saviour and Lord.              ( Matthew 19:14              14 (Mt 18:3; Lk 18:16-17)              [continued in next message]              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
