Dean Herman: Jan26, Prayer for 5 Point of Tabora

Jan26, Prayer for 5 Point of Tabora

I just received a phone call from the pastor of 5 Point of Tabora. Renatus called to let me know that he and his church are having a special time of prayer for 5 Point of America. I could hear the passion and excitement in his voice. They truly desire to see God bless our church in an awesome way. I had to fight back tears as I thought of my African brothers and sisters on their faces before God lifting up our church and me.

This got me to thinking, why don't we do the exact same thing for them. Would you stop what your doing right now as you read this (if possible, if not do later sometime today) and pray about the following things for 5 Point Church of Tabora:
1. Pastor Renatus - great vision and boldness.
2. His family & their protection. Pray for his wife to understand the troubles they endure for the cause of Christ. And that she would support Pastor Renatus in all he does.
3. Protection for the new converts. Its not like America. Christianity cost them something. Possibly their life.
4. Continued growth - They have around 120 a week. Would love to see them doubled when I arrive in June.
5. Permanent building - We have six acres of land but need $30,000 to build church.
6. God would pour vision into Pastor Renatus.
7. Leaders in the church. Men and women who are willing to help 5 Point of Tabora reach their city for Christ.
8. Renatus as he teaches Word of God. Holy Spirit would fill him and use him as he prepares and teaches.
9. Revival - that a true outpouring of God's spirit will touch Tabora and thousands will come to know Jesus.
10. Leper Colony - That God would provide those so much less fortunate than us the basic essentials of life.

I love Pastor Renatus and his family dearly. Pray for them often. Yearn to see them. Please lift them up in prayer regularly.
But today, right now, will you beg god for the above items.
