1. Unity in the body of Christ, here in the church but also on the island. Although the island is quite small there still exist many divisions of race, socioeconomic status and even
denominational lines. Please pray the the Lord Jesus Christ would tear down any walls in the hearts of the people that prevent his love from flowing to one another as well as to nonbelievers who needs to receive his love and hear the gospel message of hope, redemption and salvation.2. Contentment in Christ. Whether it is financial, relational or emotional, there seems to be this spirit of discontentment, a restlessness that is pervading the culture. People claim to know Jesus Christ, but find themselves feeling greedy, relationally needy, and emotionally bankrupt. We need to learn to be content with the lot that the Lord has given to us.
3. A greater hunger and thirst for righteousness. Because we are in such a remote location, the only things we are fed from the other parts of the world is a feeling of being left behind and a growing, insatiable hunger for things of this world. This sort of ties in with the previous prayer request, but it is that while being content in Christ, we are striving to learn more about Him, know his ways more and increasing in our desire to see his glory cover this earth... everyone, everything, everywhere.
Thanks for praying ...be of good cheer
