Pray for the Lord to send out workers to the harvestfield of Niamey.
1. The Great Mosque of Niamey (pictured above) can accommodate 15,000 worshippers (https://www.kidventuresai.com/Location/niamey_niger/Activity/visit-the-grand-mosque-of-niamey). It has a minaret with 171 steps. Wikipedia describes a minaret as “a type of tower typically built into or adjacent to mosques. Minarets are generally used to project the Islam call to prayer, but they also serve as landmarks and symbols of Islam’s presence.” (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minaret). Pray that 171 people who frequently come to worship here will truly understand and believe that “there is one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus.” (1 Tim. 2:5)
2. Niamey is the capital city of Niger. Pray for governmental leaders to make policy decisions and laws that facilitate freedom of religion.
3. Pray for a dozen homeless people in Niamey to find both a physical home now, and a guaranteed promise of future residency in the city with foundations, whose builder and maker is God (Heb. 11:10).
Psalm 96:11
