"Jesus looked at them intently and said, “Humanly speaking, it is impossible. But with God everything is possible.”
The 28,000 Somali living in Turkey do have access to a complete translated Bible, along with several audio and video options to hear about the truth of Jesus. Sadly, they still remain some of the least reached both in the world and those within Turkey. Somali in Turkey tend to stick together in smaller communities, making breakthrough into this population a little more challenging. Pray for the gospel to penitrate this community and spread rapidly. Our God is a God of the impossible.
Heavenly Father, you are the God of the impossible. You know each and every Somali person living in Turkey; you know their hopes, dreams and needs. Reach into their lives, Lord, and draw them to yourself. Open a path for disciple makers to enter into this tightknit community and pierce through the darkness to reveal your marvellous light. They have the bible in their language, Jesus, let them get ahold of your holy word and read it. Capture their imagianations, fill their minds with thoughts about you and may their dreams be full of "the man in white", as many Muslim background believers will say. Bring about a disciple making movement among the Somali in Turkey, O Lord.
Use these resources to help pray specifically each day.
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.
ReadPsalm 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."
