A 6.8 magnitude earthquake off the coast of Mindanao in the southern Philippines a week ago resulted in at least nine deaths and more than 800 houses and other facilities destroyed or severely damaged.
Philippines is home to 90 unreached people groups who have yet to hear the good news of Christ. Most are indigenous tribes living in fear of evil spirits; others adhere to Islam. Nevertheless, revival has been sweeping the Philippines for many years now, with thousands of new converts reported and regular mass baptisms in the Pacific Ocean.
Lord, please comfort those who mourn. Let them feel You near them, holding them through this difficult time. Speak to them tenderly and draw them to Yourself. Empower believers to share aid and especially Your good news during this difficult time, offering hope to those who have lost it and faith to those who are afraid. Father God, about 5.6 million people in the Philippines still don’t know about Jesus’ sacrifice. They live in fear of evil spirits not knowing about the Savior who loves them and has already conquered the enemy. Others think they know You as Muslims, but without Christ they cannot be saved. Only You, Jesus, are the Way, Truth, and Life. John 14:6. Please call out Christians with a burden for the unreached who will cross political, language, geographical, religious, cultural and all other barriers to take Your good news where it’s never been before and translate the Bible into languages that still need to hear about Your love, grace and salvation. Don’t let even one more person die without the opportunity to choose You as Lord of their life. Thank You for the thousands who have turned to You in recent years. We ask You for all the more. Awaken Your church to love beyond barriers. Awaken parents to raise their children up in Your love. Awaken youth to live with purity and a passion for You. Awaken pastors to preach with the power of Your Spirit. Awaken the islands to truly live as Your Word and Love commands.
