BIBLE: Easy Access Bible

http://solarpoweredbible.com/

Here is a small bible that fits in the palm of your hand and
now speaks all the books of the Bible, old and new Testament, in a real human voice. You can jump from book to book, and chapter to chapter with the press of a button. You can also jump ahead or back in 15 second intervals. It's easy to use and the batteries are built into the unit. It can be powered by the sun or a light bulb or charged from a 9 volt DC adapter (not included). Fully charged batteries will allow the unit to play for approximately 10 hours. You can listen to the human voice reading the Bible through the Bible's excellent speaker, or through ear phones (included). The unit measures 4 1/4 by 2 1/2 by 7/8 inch.

This would be great for the visually impaired or for your next
road trip. In spite of costs as high as $110 at other sites, Ken found it at:

"Rise & Shine" Isaiah 60

"Wake up, O sleeper, & rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you!" - Ephesians 5:14

PRAISE:
Praise that the plans for the new church facility (mentioned in March PTAP) was recently approved by the authorities. This is so much a work of God! Pray for God to provide wisdom in the planning, selecting architects etc and also provide the finances needed.


PETITION:
Please continue to pray for the tentmaker family who are hoping to move here. Pray for one of the jobs he has applied for to come forth with a job offer / contract so that this family can come and serve God here in this country. Our team really needs them.

Pray that the power system of Wahhabi leaders would crumble and that the people of Saudi Arabia would not feel controlled by these leaders. Pray that God would break down the stronghold of pride that binds Saudis to Islam.

Please pray for a Ladies' Fellowship outreach in our country, where Muslim seekers and MBBs are invited to observe (or participate with) a group of Christian women who gather to pray, read the Bible, worship & fellowship. Ask the Lord to continue to send the women of His choosing, and to use it for His glory.

Pray for the MBB’s that are being cared for by several Christian families. The MBBs are being cared for by a team of Arab and Western workers. It has been a great exercise to draw us together in a common God ordained task.

Ask God to work in the teams in our country. There has been some difficult people relationships these past few weeks. Pray that we would seek out the Lord before we engage in heated debate and that we would actively seek reconciliation and restoration. (Pray John 17.)


TESTIMONY:
Salman is an Arab Muslim who began following Jesus along with his wife, just before she died of cancer about 16 months ago. Being with his mom in the hospital these past few days reopened the shallow wounds of his wife's death. he has not grieved properly for either. He is a young single dad with tremendous responsibility and no time to stop and grieve. Pray that God would touch Salman's heart deeply this week with comfort and peace. Pray too for his boys, aged 13 and 9, that God would heal their hurting hearts as well.

One of our workers learned tonight that local tradition mandates returning to the burial site on the third day after the death to make prayers for the deceased. Salman said he hated this tradition, because he said it just reopens the hurt. Could this be because there is no hope of resurrection for most Muslims who are buried in that cemetery! Pray for wisdom as several men and women in the country are involved in his life.
