Sunday Focus: Pastoral Cares
Pastor Daniel: Jesus said, “Smite the shepherd, and the sheep
shall be scattered” (Mark 14:27). Satan knows that if he can bring
down the man of God, the work of God will be severely hindered in
your city. Pray the armor of God over PD (Ephesians 6:10-18). Quote
Scriptures for his protection (Psalm 91; Luke 19:10; etc.). Pray
that no weapon formed against him would prosper (Isaiah 54:17), that
he would not be ignorant of the enemy’s devices, and that the enemy
would not gain advantage over him (II Corinthians 2:11).
Pastor Dave: Pray for strength and energy in the midst of a busy
month.
Cynthia (CMD): Effective teaching at a CEF Party Club on May 10.
Pray for the world
Lithuania: The Protestant church faces many challenges. Among
them are: 1) The traditional denominations (Lutheran, Reformed and
Orthodox) are largely associated with the shrinking ethnic
minorities, just struggling to maintain their numbers. B0 The
Baptists, Pentecostals and Adventists are the most established
evangelical groups in Lithuania, but are struggling to come out of a
Soviet-era time warp. The hyper-conservatism and defensiveness which
enabled them to survive the lean years are now barriers to their
growth. Pray that the leadership might see the need for forward
progress under the Spirit’s guidance.
Pray
for International workers
