Day 17 of 30
By Gordon from Mahabba Network International
Inspired by today's entry in 30 Days of Prayer, but with a UK twist!
Daily verse
“This will be the sign for you, Hezekiah:
‘This year you will eat what grows by itself,
and the second year what springs from that.
But in the third year sow and reap,
plant vineyards and eat their fruit.”
Thought for the day
Spring
As well as UK, Mahabba has been growing in Europe: France, Belgium, Norway & Austria already going; then working closely with Germany, Switzerland & Sweden; more recently interested established in Denmark & Belgium.
If God is with us, this will spread, so I am in waiting and praying mode until we get clear guidance on the future.
Just as an encouragement from a monastery in Germany: they are working in about 15 cities, mainly with Syrian & Iraqi refugees.
They just started the next discipleship training with about 70 MBBs.
What they are doing is unique in Germany, and last year they gathered over 1000 people to pray for 3 days.
They are sending Arabic speaking missionaries across Germany, and many German churches and Ministries are asking for support with their know-how and man-power.
They have already reached out to more than 20 camps, and 75 churches with Muslim groups…. hundreds of Muslims have become followers and are attending the discipleship schools.
New house cells have also been established.
Also churches with just MBBs have been established.
The head of the Refugee movement in German has asked me to send him material, and he will be encouraging Mahabba prayer.
Prayer for the day
Pray for the Mahabba Network as the message of ‘loving all Muslims’ spreads - with groups springing up themselves and connecting to other groups and ministries (like Al Massira). The desire is that more and more will discover and seek to follow Jesus.
Daily action
Try organising a Prayer Walk or just go with a friend
