Two months ago the finishing touches were put on the Alliance Church in the village of Madou, but last night a strong wind ripped the roof off. This has sparked speculation in the village that the God of the Christians is not as powerful as their fetishes. Pray for this village and that the Christians would not lose heart. Pray that in spite of this set back, the true and living God would reveal Himself in His glory and power.

Praying that God will "show you His glory!"( Exodus 33:18).
In The Pursuit of God, A. W. Tozer writes, "Jesus taught that He wrought His works by always keeping His inward eyes upon His Father. His power lay in His continuous look at God (John 5:19-21)."

Praying for this as this area is so steeped in idolatry that just seems unending. The LORD bless you.
