Because our Lord Jesus Christ has risen from the dead, my dear brothers and sisters, may you heed the call of the Apostle Paul to stand firm and let nothing move you, giving yourself fully to serving him- your labour is not in vain (1 Cor 15:58)

Lord Jesus, I plead for our brothers and sisters in Christ in Africa who are suffering much. Please let the world take notice of their strong faith, and provide them with basic needs that they may live lives off dignity and be a witness for you. Give them peace and encouragement, and may they know they are not forgotten.

Psaume 61 O Dieu ! Écoute mes cris, Sois attentif à ma prière ! Du bout de la terre je crie à toi, le cœur abattu ; Conduis-moi sur le rocher que je ne puis atteindre ! Car tu es pour moi un refuge, Une tour forte, en face de l'ennemi. Je voudrais séjourner éternellement dans ta tente. Me réfugier à l'abri de tes ailes. Amen

O LORD, please protect all these people. Please heal them and bless them abundantly. In Jesus' name, Amen.

Lord Jesus, I praise your name. I ask that you help our persecuted brothers and fill them with power to overcome the evil one.I leave you with Psalm 46

Isaiah 41: 13. For I, Jehovah thy God, will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee.

Lord, please protect your people throughout Africa. Please guard them from persecution. Please sustain their faith and hope in you, and their love which is from you. Please may their oppressors come to know you and be forgiven and redeemed from their sins. In Jesus’s name.
