      [continued from previous message]              4) From Prosperity Promises - Kenneth Copeland              2 Cor 9:8,11              8 God is able to make all grace abound toward you,       so that you, always having enough of everything,       may abound to every good work.       11 So you will be enriched in everything to all bountifulness,       which makes us give thanks to God.              8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having       all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:       11 being enriched in every thing to all bountifulness, which causeth through       us thanksgiving to God.              5) From a Book called God's Promises for you:              When you are Facing Pain and Suffering              Ps 9:9-12              9 The Lord also will be a refuge for the oppressed,       a refuge in times of trouble.       10 Those who know Your name will put their trust in You,       for You, Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You.       11 Sing praises to the Lord who dwells in Zion;       declare His deeds among the people.       12 He who avenges deaths remembers them;       He does not forget the cry of the humble.              ×• Waw       9 The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed,       A refuge in times of trouble.       10 And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee:       For thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.       ×– Zain       11 Sing praises to the LORD, which dwelleth in Zion:       Declare among the people his doings.       12 When he maketh inquisition for blood, he remembereth them:       He forgetteth not the cry of the humble.              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?)              Newfoundland & Labrador              Total population 527000       Muslim population (est.) 2065              As of Autumn 2014, St. John's does not have a local CNMM network. Pray with us       for God's people to come together in prayer       and cooperative efforts to reach Muslims with the Good News.              St. John's has one mosque and 2 more musallas , or prayer locations, which       may grow into mosques of their own. The mosque is called Masjid an Noor,       The Mosque of the Light, and mosque historical documents record a trip in 1986       to Saudi Arabia to raise funds for the land purchase and construction costs.       A small number of Muslim families had come prior to 1964, but moved on to       other places after a short time. After this date, a small community began       to remain and grow , reaching about 25 families in the 1980s. A number       of international students also join the community annually       ranging from 25 to 60.              In 2014 the mosque website reports the community is made up of some 200       families and many university students attending Memorial University. A       small number of native Newfoundlanders have also converted to the Islamic       faith, one saying of this religion in Newfoundland, "Islam is a growing face".       With the growth of the community, the current challenge is lack of space       in the mosque, which they are now looking at expanding.              Pray for              - The true Light of life, Jesus Christ, to be revealed to Muslims       in Newfoundland through the word, dreams, visions and answers to prayer.       - Christians to be as "wise as serpents and harmless as doves" regarding       Islam and reaching out in loving witness to Muslims in St. John's.       - for a dedicated, intentional witness to the growing number of Muslim       students on the university, college and trade school campuses.              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, ...)                     [continued in next message]              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
