Allah is the Devil;

Abortion is no more than sacrifice
of children to Baal.
Pray this recognition will not come too late. Pray we will, each of us, do our duty to God,
Country and Family, putting His Honor above all.
Persecuted
The Islamist group (ISIS)
took over Quaragosh, the biggest Christian city in Iraq; 164 men, women and
children were beheaded. People ask where
is God? The real question is where are
the people to enforce God’s will. Pray
the people of the world will see Allah for who he is, the Devil. Pray for those who remain behind that they
might find a way to safety.
Around the world,
Christians are under attack, not only in the Muslim world, but from Hindus and
others in India. Also, they are under
continual attack in the name of Separation of Church and State in the western
world, as it becomes actively atheist or pro-devil buddy. Please pray for God’s guidance and protection
for all persecuted Christians and those around them.
Education
Aaron is in need of God’s guidance to see what he
needs to do to fulfill his potential and live his life in a manner which will
bring true happiness to him.
Thomas
Dabney is attending Delta State University in Cleveland,
Mississippi, to finish his Bachelor’s Degree.
Please pray for Thomas to focus on education and do his very best at
school.
Various
Special Requests
This is a horrible time for the people of India,
Christians in particular; they are having problems with Hunger, Bank
Closings, Transportation and Schools not functioning. Pray for the Leaders and Members of our
Church in Eluru Andhra Pradesh. Pray their basic needs will be met and God will
be close to them in this time of need.
that the Holy Ghost might give you insight
into how you might make the lives of your friends and family better. Remember helping others is not just those who
you don’t know!
Thanksgiving
