Eglise Evangelique Church – Nyamata Accidents Do Happen! A taxi cyclist rode straight into the car, puncturing the front tyre, scratching the left-hand side of the car and smashing the rear passenger window. His passenger on the bike was hurt but he was taken to hospital, from which he is recovering. As he had no insurance, the Mission was left to pay for the repairs to the car. This amounted to £150. It was a mad dash to get the car repaired before the long journey to Rusizi. A Bishop and two pastors met with us in Rusizi having come across the border there. We are considering their request to hold a conference in Bukavu. Pray that we shall have clear direction from the Lord concerning this. We would also hold a crusade as well.

TEXT: ‘We are sure of this that he will listen to us whenever we ask him for anything in line with his will.

Years of waiting ended when she changed how she was praying and this is the theme of Today’s Teaching. I pray that it will help someone to get a similar breakthrough. The Problem – ‘Hannah had no children’ – 1 Samuel 1:2 Hannah was loved and well-treated by her husband Elkanah, although her barrenness appears to have caused him to take a second wife, Peninnah. She did have children and constantly provoked Hannah about her barrenness. Getting older also became another barrier to conception. Every year the family went to the house of the Lord in Shiloh to worship but such occasions only intensified her misery. Overcome by grief, she could not even eat with the others, but found a place to pour out her...

And if we really know he is listening when we talk to him and make our requests, then we can be sure that he will answer us’ – 1 John 5:14-15 TLB THOUGHT: Answered prayer is one of the most thrilling experiences for a Christian. That the God of the universe takes time to intervene on earth is truly amazing. Not just concentrating on nations and their leaders, but ordinary people. Isaiah 40:15 describes the nations as a drop in the bucket, so how much smaller and insignificant a human being, yet Jesus said, ‘The very hairs on your head are all numbered’ – Luke 12:7. The Bible encourages us to pray to the God who is listening. What can help us to pray prayers that God can answer? WHAT TO AVOID WHEN PRAYING Asking God to do what He has told US to do Many Christians ask God to send in the lost, but we are commanded to go out to reach them. Also churches pray for God to send in the money, while Christians are sitting there unwilling to give their tithes and offerings. We...
