Tunisian testimonies

As Paul testified to a crowd in its native language, we pray for Tunisians to hear many testimonies in Derja, Tunisian Arabic. (see Acts 21:40)

smoking

Most Tunisian men, young and old, smoke cigarettes. Father, as we long for the eternal well-being of the people of Tunisia, we pray today against this addiction that eats away at health and finances. Lord, touch the hearts of Tunisian men to long for Your acceptance more than nicotine. Don’t let them die until they find assurance in Jesus.

Authority of God’s Word

As Your Spirit moves in old and young, nationals and expatriates, among people of different spiritual experiences and backgrounds, we pray, Father, that the foundation of unity and discernment would be Your holy word, the Bible. Let all come humbly before Your revealed truth to listen and learn.

God-man

The angel Gabriel said to the virgin Mary, regarding the child that she would bear, “He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. And the Lord God will give to him the throne of his father David” (Luke 1:32). Father, we ask You today to open Tunisian hearts to embrace the incredible mystery of Jesus as “Son of God” and “Son of David,” the only perfect One to take away our sins.

a beautiful people

Though most have dark hair and eyes with light brown skin, Tunisians can be quite diverse in appearance. There are those with lighter complexion and bright blue eyes, as the country has a Berber presence in addition to the strong Arab majority. Within and beyond these physical appearances, Lord, we pause to praise You for Tunisians, whom You have made in Your image. Help us to see them as You do today.

little stores

There are little stores on every street where you can buy almost anything (food, toiletry items, etc), and most Tunisians buy just what they need just when they need it. Father, let church communities pop up throughout the nation that, like these little stores, could give people just what they need just when they need it—but in far more eternal ways.

mothers and fathers

Almost everyone in Tunisia has a very high regard for their parents, many believing that God will not forgive them if their parents don’t. So it is very important for them to have a good relationship with their parents. Lord God, we ask You, in Jesus’ name, to bring the Gospel of Jesus to many parents who will faithfully use their positions of authority and care to lead future generations to know Your grace.

While seeking to see disciples made and churches planted rapidly, Lord, don’t let the desire for speed prevent depth of intimacy and maturity in You. Apart from You we can do nothing. You are the beginning and the end, O God!

more Pauls

The Apostle Paul explained that before meeting Jesus, “I was advancing in Judaism beyond many of my own age among my people, so extremely zealous was I for the traditions of my fathers” (Galatians 1:14). Lord, we agree together today that You would transform the lives of many young, zealous Tunisians from being passionate for the traditions of their fathers to being passionate for You, Jesus.

new year

On or around November 15th will be the beginning of the 1434th Muslim lunar year. Though not highly celebrated in Tunisia like January 1st is, this date begins the calendar that is the basis of all religious holidays for Muslims. Let’s agree together today that this “new year” would reveal more spiritual breakthroughs in Tunisia than in the last several decades combined.

remember

“Remember the wondrous works that He has done, His miracles, and the judgments He uttered” (Psalm 105:5). Lord, we remember You. You are the One who created the world with a word, You parted the Red Sea, You fed 5,000 with a few loaves, You have always kept Your promises. Yes, Lord, we remember You.

november festivals

With the Sahara Festival in Douz and the Oasis Festival in Tozeur this month, Lord, we pray for these southern desert regions to experience the joy of Your Living Water. Jesus, visit these areas this month to make Yourself known and to satisfy souls, I pray.

Father, the only hope of 10.7 million people hearing the Gospel accurately is through rapid multiplication of disciples, churches, and reproducible tools. As Tunisians die everyday without hearing the truth of You, we plead with You to give a healthy sense of urgency to Your children in this nation.

students

Now that the school year is well under way, let’s offer up a special prayer for those college freshmen who might be far from family, still settling in and making friends while trying to keep up their grades. Father, we ask for healthy friendships, favor with studies, and opportunities and ears to hear the Good News of Jesus this semester.
