TESTIMONY FROM A TUNISIAN BELIEVER

I am in my twenties and from the beach town of Nabeul. I used to be a very strict follower of Islam. I even taught hundreds of others. People looked to me for advice, and I taught from the Koran. Inwardly, I began to have doubts and became disillusioned as I learned more about violence in Islam and about the personal life of Mohammed. One night I had a dream of a man, the Messiah, “He told me to follow Him.” I had never read the Bible before, so I began to read about the life of the Messiah in the gospels. I was amazed by His words about love. I told my sister and my parents that I was going to follow Christ. They brought two religious leaders to my house to try and convince me to turn back to Islam. I told them I would not. My family beat me up. I thought I might die but knew that if I did, my entire neighborhood would come to Christ and it would be worth it. My hope is to be baptized this month! Pray that God will fill me with His Spirit and give me words to say as I share Christ with religious leaders, students, my neighbors, and my family.

OBSTACLE TO A DISCIPLE MAKING MOVEMENT IN TUNISIA

Pray for great clarity (even generational maps that highlight key issues) about areas where Christians in Tunisia may be working in vain.

PRAY MIRACLES FROM THE BIBLE

“Just then a woman who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years came up behind him and touched the edge of his cloak. She said to herself, “If I only touch his cloak, I will be healed.” Jesus turned and saw her. “Take heart, daughter,” he said, “your faith has healed you.” And the woman was healed at that moment.” (Matthew 9:20-22)

Pray for those who have been suffering physically and emotionally for long periods of time. They have lost hope. Give them faith to believe in your healing.

MOVEMENT PRAYERS

from GOD’S GRACE FOR THE WORLD by Trevor Larson

“And now, Lord, look upon their threats and grant to your servants to continue to speak your word with all boldness, while you stretch out your hand to heal, and signs and wonders are performed through the name of your holy servant Jesus.” (Acts 4:23-31) Pray for protection for Tunisian believers during danger, for God to overcome opposition, and for boldness to proclaim the gospel despite threats. Pray for God to powerfully answer their requests.
