- Lake Victoria: Australia
Named for the same British queen as Africa’s Lake Victoria, Australia’s Lake Victoria is smaller, yet also of historical and current importance.

It currently does not exceed a depth of eighteen feet, and serves as a reservoir for extra water from the Murray River, releasing water to the south as needed.
1. Pray for the salvation of an archaeologist who has excavated around Lake Victoria. Many artifacts have been uncovered, but pray for an archaeologist to find an even greater treasure in the truth of the Word of God.
2. Pray for Christian outreaches among Australia’s aboriginal people to being forth much fruit.
3. Pray for the professional who makes the final call on regulating water flow out of Lake Victoria to cheerfully let the Lord make the final decisions for his life.

- National Day of Prayer for the USA
While this post was originally published on the official National Day of Prayer (5-2-2024), considering the spiritual condition of our country and the election tomorrow, it behooves us to spend time again today beseeching God on behalf of our land.

R ealizing His magnificence:
E nshrined images must come down,
V erity in hearts restored,
I niquity truly abhorred.
V ast His holiness beyond our reach:
A lmighty God’s mercies beseech,
L ive for Him Who died for us each.
&
R ebellion finally bends its knee,
E ntangled with only one choice to be free.
G race cuts sin’s cords because of His nails;
E mmanuel’s love and victory prevails.
N o one could make the changes He can;
E vil must flee at His mighty hand.
R ighteousness, judgment – these are the facts;
A ll will one day bow before His great acts.
T his is my prayer for the country I love:
I pray for her people to seek God above.
O nly in doing so can peace be found;
N eglecting Him surely will bring us down.(https://poemsfortheking.blogspot.com/2020/04/john-16-revival-regeneration.html)

- In 1 Samuel 6, the Philistines returned the Ark of the Covenant (which they had previously captured in battle) to Israel. The oxen carrying the Ark went to Beth Shemesh.

It provides 30% of the continent’s freshwater, and close to 80 million people live in the Congo River basin.
1. Praying for the nine pictured people who are shipping wood on the Congo River to hear and believe the gospel before the end of this year.
2. Around 500,000 African Pygmies (very short people) live in the Congo basin.

Pray for several pygmies who are keenly feeling that rejection today to be introduced to the Father’s love, and accept His invitation to become “accepted in the Beloved.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/African_Pygmies#:~:text=Pygmies%20are%20often%20evicted%20from,health%20care%20and%20education%20access.&text=There%20are%20roughly%20500%2C000%20Pygmies%20remaining%20in%20the%20rainforest%20of%20Central%20Africa
3. Pray for a person living in close proximity to the Congo River who shares your name (or a translation with the same meaning as your name) to become a child of God, that he or she may one day receive a special new name in glory (Rev. 2:17).
