二﹑禱告事項 Prayer Items:
1.為摩洛哥禱告:自1956年獨立以來,摩洛哥就一直是西北非地區重要的安定力量。摩洛哥國王是該國政治與宗教唯一領袖。所有摩洛哥人一生下來就被視為遜尼派的穆斯林。雖然憲法保障信仰自由但是基督徒通常遭到監視甚是被關押。據估計摩洛哥有兩千名基督徒在分散各地的家庭教會聚會,這使他們很難彼此連結。為摩洛哥信徒能在不同的信徒家裡聚會感謝神,為摩洛哥基督徒的合一禱告。
Pray for Morocco. Ever since its independence in 1956. Morocco has been a stable and influential presence in its region. They have a monarchy, and the king is head of state and religion. All who are born in Morocco are considered Sunni Muslim. The constitution guarantees freedom of religion, but Christians are usually monitored and sometimes imprisoned. Thus, many Christians gather in secret to avoid conflict. As estimated two thousand Moroccan believers meet in house churches scattered around the nation, making it difficult to be united. Pray for unity among the house churches scattered through the nation. Praise God for Moroccan believers who gather in each other’s houses.
2.為新信徒禱告:為去年11、12月受洗的弟兄姊妹禱告。求神給他們渴慕的心,持續接受門徒學校(上)或是以生命影響生命的門徒訓練的初階門訓裝備,藉著這些裝備課程幫助他們在真理上打好基礎,好繼續接受進階門訓裝備,屬靈生命長大成熟。
Pray for New Believers. Pray for those new believers baptized in November or December 2023. We pray the Lord would give them a craving heart for basic doctrine training in order to grow in their spirituality ready for advanced spiritual training.
3.為裝備事工禱告:為本季的成人主日學、兒童主日學老師禱告,求神使用他們,幫助弟兄姊妹在真道上有更清楚的認識,預備好服事主。求神感動每一位弟兄姊妹都來接受裝備訓練,不管信主的年日有多長,讓持續接受裝備造就,追求生命成長成為一生的習慣。
Pray for Christian Education. Pray for the adult and children’s Sunday School teachers. We pray the Lord would use them to help brothers and sisters have a better knowledge of the Truth and become ready to serve the Lord. Also, we pray everyone would devote himself to receiving training no matter how long he has been in the Lord.
4.為長執同工禱告:為教會9位長老,25位執事禱告。求神幫助他們有固定的靈修習慣,與神有美好的關係,善用神給他們的恩賜,在不同的事工上忠心服事主,使教會整體不斷成長,又同心合意興旺福音。
Pray for Elders and Deacons. Pray for our 9 elders and 25 deacons. We pray that they would have a good relation with the Lord through regular daily devotion. Also, we pray they would make a good use of their gifts in further development of our church. Finally, they would partner in spreading the gospel.
5.為肢體禱告:為你所知道身體欠安的弟兄姊妹禱告,求神醫治他們恢復身體的健康。
