An International Mission Board (Southern Baptist) missionary working with an unreached people group in Central Asia was looking for some "good soil" in which to share the gospel, but he seriously doubted that he had found such when he hired "Bruce" (from the unreached people group) to work for him. Bruce continued to work for him and they became good friends. Bruce confided in his new friend that his life was in turmoil: his father had just died, he had marital problems and he drank excessively. Unexpectedly, Bruce told the missionary that his father had always wanted a copy of the New Testament. The missionary replied that he is willing to share his own one. As he did so, Bruce was drawn to the passages about Jesus. Bruce then began asking questions: "How can I make my marriage work? How can I stop drinking so much?" His questions were leading Bruce to Jesus. Bruce delighted his friend when he told him that he wanted to believe in Jesus. As Bruce sincerely trusted Jesus, patterns in his life began to change. Pray for God to use the lives and testimonies of Bruce and others from his people group to reach his Muslim neighbours for Jesus. Pray that all efforts of Satan to stop God's work among this group will be frustrated.

Pray immediately that God would bring to our church a Christian printer, graphics art businessman and a separate web designer and computer specialist that will become long term church members and voluntarily help us with all our church urgent needs.

For my family and myself please pray that: God will daily destroy any weapon formed against my family and myself and daily raise up his standard against the enemy for family, myself, Church & Food Co-Op.

Daily the kingdom of God would come wherever I & family go & at Church & Food Co-Op.

Daily every member of my family would love Jesus with all their hearts, (going to church and Christian Fellowship) follow Him and fulfil their callings in God. A.J.

I praise God for giving me my calling. Pray for a spirit of repentance to come upon the church in Russia and purge it of all unrighteousness and self-serving, and that the Holy Spirit would have His way. Pray that God would send more labourers here. Sasha.

A major study has concluded that children who receive ‘tough love'– a combination of warmth and discipline – from their parents have the best chance of doing well in life. The study found that parenting style, not economic background, is the most important factor determining a child's development of positive qualities such as self-control, empathy and determination. It also discovered that children with married parents were twice more likely to show these key traits than children living with step-families or single parents. Please pray that the realisation that a balanced way of discipline is essential for the well-being of children. (Deut.11:19).

Praise God in advance for giving me favor with my landlord and his wife. Let's declare that all of their wrong behavior is cancelled, in Jesus name.Prayer for Alex, Kiril, Stanislav and their salvation. I ask God to bring the right people to mую.

My family members, who are satanists, are threatening me and bearing false witness against me. Pray for the healing of my wounded heart and comfort for my mind. I'm attacked by cold symptoms, pain, infection. I ask God for continued protection.

Please pray for my job situation where people are getting scared and upset over the possibility of a major investigation that has not even started yet and that one guy keeps saying people might go to prison after investigation. We have done a lot of things correctly, but this man brought in from another plant in the company is getting people upset.

Please pray for the Lord's complete intervention to make things work out right, that everyone will settle down, that no one will go to prison, and that the top level people will understand what truly needs to be done to assure that nothing wrong is done here.

We have seen the hand of the Lord move mightily here before and know that He can work this all out.

Since we are approaching the closing of schools for the December holiday season, it is time for Highway Ministries to put in extra efforts to establish new Prayer Points and extend Prayer Patrols throughout the country and to encourage existing ones to prepare for an extra thrust in mobilising all intercessors to come and pray against death on the roads of the country. There are currently 46 Prayer Points from the Cape to Mussina, Port Elizabeth to Kimberley to Vanrhynsdorp.) Pray for safety on the roads of South Africa during the holiday season. Pray that drivers will refrain from driving under the influence of alcohol or when they are tired. Pray for all the workers (traffic officers, policemen, assistants at tollgates, etc.) that will assist drivers in having a safe journey.

A recent report has shown that more than 10 children in Guatemala die every week as a result of violence, 52% of these from gunshot wounds. Gang culture and drug dependency are common occurrences, and there are an average of 17 murders a day in the country, most of them attributable to youth gangs and organised crime. 29% of children aged five to fourteen are involved in child labour and are being sent out to work in difficult and dangerous conditions. Early Encounters, a Viva project run in partnership with Toybox, is working with families whose children are potentially at risk of becoming street children, to prevent them from ending up on the streets. They also work with children who may be relatively new to life on the streets, who may still be in contact with members of their family, in order to reunite them with their parents or other relatives. Praise God for Early Encounters and the success that they have seen so far in Guatemala. It is estimated that over 200 children are attending activities arranged by the project, and up to 100 may have been taken off the streets this year. Pray for the continued success of the project. Pray for relationships to be formed between families and project workers, in order that more families can be reached by Early Encounters to prevent children ending up on the streets.
