Pray for the Lord to send out workers to the harvestfield of Oradea.

1. Oradea, Romania, is only 32 miles away from yesterday’s featured city: Debrecen, Hungary. As of January 2025, travel between these two neighboring countries became much easier due to a decrease in regulatory border controls. Pray for a family in Oradea who frequently visits relatives in Debrecen to become Christians this year.

2. The pictured balconies are painted vermilion, a shade of bright red-orange. This color is mentioned in Jeremiah 22:14,  describing King Jehoiakim’s luxurious house with painted vermilion walls. The color is also mentioned in Ezekiel 23:14 when describing the Babylonians. Pray that the next person to stand on one of the pictured balconies will not exhibit the pride and paganism of Jehoiakim and the Babylonians, but will instead bow in humility before the Lord God Almighty.

3. Pray for a post-abortion mom in Oradea to find forgiveness and spiritual healing at the foot of the cross.

3. There is a printing press in Debrecen which has been operating since 1561 (britannica.com). Pray that any copies of Scripture printed on it will continue to circulate / change lives.
