14 Days of Prayer for the Persecuted Church Day 11

Day 11 Senegal:

Read - Psalm 91
 He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.
 I will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust.”

 For he will deliver you from the snare of the Fowler
and from the deadly pestilence.
  He will cover you with his pinions,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness is a shield and buckler.
 You will not fear the terror of the night,
nor the arrow that flies by day,
 nor the pestilence that stalks in darkness,
nor the destruction that wastes at noonday.

 A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
 You will only look with your eyes
and see the recompense of the wicked.

 Because you have made the Lord your dwelling place—
the Most High, who is my refuge
  no evil shall be allowed to befall you,
no plague come near your tent.

  For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways.
On their hands they will bear you up,
lest you strike your foot against a stone.
  You will tread on the lion and the adder;
the young lion and the serpent you will trample underfoot.

  “Because he holds fast to me in love, I will deliver him;
I will protect him, because he knows my name.
 When he calls to me, I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble;
I will rescue him and honor him.
  With long life I will satisfy him
  and show him my salvation.”

Think - Why did the psalmist write so often about persecution and the Lord’s provision in the midst of suffering?

Pray - Pray for the fruitful work of the Christians in Senegal: that they would continue to help their countrymen turn from worshiping false gods and the occult, and to submit to the one true Lord of Lords.

Act - Print out today’s verse and share it with someone that you know is experiencing suffering in their circumstances. Offer to pray through it with them.
