SOUTHEAST ASIA

Created for a Reason

Ruth grew up in a Christian home in a Southeast Asia country but wasn’t sure if God was real. She believed a good education would bring honor to her family and put extreme pressure on herself to pass the university qualifying exam and earn a degree. Her dream shattered after falling 0.25% short of the necessary score. “I felt unworthy, so I decided I had to die,” says Ruth. Standing above a 10-foot-deep lake with no knowledge of how to swim, she prepared to jump. Suddenly, a voice from the sky interrupted her, “Ruth, Ruth, Ruth, I did not create you for this reason.” It was then Ruth realized God was real. Her life belonged to Him. Pray for Ruth and others like her.

  • Praise God that He intervened in Ruth’s life at such a critical moment.
  • Pray that others in similar situations experience the same intervention and new purpose.
  • Pray for Ruth as she lives life knowing she was created for a reason, and she is loved by God.
GO

Intercede with us that God will call workers to the Asia Pacific region to reach people who feel as if they have no hope. Jesus is available to them, but how will they know if no one tells them?

JAPAN

Fulfillment of a Dream

Pray with us for Maki, a woman in Japan. Maki works teaching Japanese. She wanted to learn English, so a member of Tsukuba International Christian Assembly recommended she watch their online bilingual services. Each time Maki watched, she cried. For the next six months, she regularly attended in-person services; however, she was not ready to become a Christian. One night, Maki dreamed that she accepted Jesus in front of her church. The next day, the church was filming testimonies. Chris Carter, global worker, felt prompted to ask Maki to be interviewed. Maki knew this was a fulfillment of her dream, and after the interview, she accepted Jesus.

  • Pray that Maki continues seeking Jesus and developing her faith.
  • Pray that this international church reaches an exponential number of people with the gospel.
