The Kabardian People

Let's pray specifically for one of the unreached people groups living in Turkey today.

 

Hebrews 13:2

"Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by doing so some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it."

The Kabarian People

The Kabarians in Turkey are the largest subgroup of the Circassian peoples. Kabardian people were dangerously close to extermination as they were victims of the century-long Russo-Circassian wars that ended in 1864. Ninety percent of their population were killed or expelled from their ancient Russian homeland. Many survivors of the wars left Russia and settled in the Ottoman Empire in what is now eastern Turkey. Kabardians believe in hospitality. They have a saying, "A guest is a messenger from God." Or, "The guest of a Kabardian is as safe as if protected by a fortress."

Prayer Point:

We pray that the Kabardian people in Turkey would welcome messengers with the gospel into their homes and listen to their message. Lord, let your message of love ring true as believers in Jesus are hosted by Kabardian people of peace. Open their communities up to the gospel, Lord. We pray for peace and stability in the regions where the Kabardians live and that that Kabardian believers would reach out to the Turkish Muslim Kabardians.

Understand the Urgency

February 4, 2025

Disciplemaking Principle: Understand the Urgency of the Task Jesus tells his disciples that we will not know the hour in which he will return, but that we should always be ready. Disciple Making Movements focus on the urgency of the task at hand - all peoples, nations, tribes and languages hearing the good news of Christ.

Rejoice and Sing!

February 3, 2025

Psalm 66:4-7 "Everything on earth will worship you;     they will sing your praises,     shouting your name in glorious songs. Come and see what our God has done,     what awesome miracles he performs for people! He made a dry path through the Red Sea,     and his people went across on foot.     There we rejoiced in him. For by his great power he rules forever.     He watches every movement of the nations;     let no rebel rise in defiance."
