Please pray Romans 1:16-17:
“I am not ashamed of the gospel because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes…For in the gospel a righteousness from God is revealed, a righteousness that is by faith from first to last…”
Pray:
That many Alagwa would open their hearts to the gospel and receive God’s grace by faith.
That the Alagwa who are following Jesus, or who are moving towards Jesus, will be courageous and unashamed of the gospel in their communities.
Update on The Alagwa of Tanzania
Ramadan Day 22: God sent His Servant Jesus “as a light to the Gentiles, to open blind eyes, to bring out prisoners from the prison.” (Isa 42:6-7). Ask Jesus to open the eyes of Muslims blinded by the Evil One, and to set free those held captive by evil spirits.

Ramadan Day 11: The fifth pillar of Islam is the Hajj or pilgrimage to Mecca. Pray that Muslims would hear Jesus say what He said to the woman at the well, “Woman, believe Me, the hour is coming when neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father. You worship what you do not know, we worship what we know, for salvation is from the Jews. But the hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in Spirit and truth, for the Father is seeking such people to worship Him.” (John 4: 21-23)
Update on The Alagwa of Tanzania
Please pray for a new believer, who has been delivered from demonic possession. Pray for her as she mourns the death of her mother, but praise God she was bold enough to proclaim the name of Jesus at her mother’s funeral. This is a big deal culturally as funerals are steeped in folk Islamic traditions and rituals.
Update on The Alagwa of Tanzania
Ramadan starts tomorrow. Muslims around the world will be observing a month-long fast from dawn to sunset. This is a very important religious observance for them. They will try hard to please God through fasting and piety. Ask God to reveal to them that “without faith it is impossible to please God” (Heb 11:6)
