TODAY’S PRAYER TARGET

“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit” (Romans 15:13).

Paul wrote his letter to the Romans in a time when the world was filled with news of tragedies, fears of violence, and worries about the well-being of friends and family. With his eyes open to all of this, Paul confidently prays that the believers in Rome will be filled with joy, peace, and hope. Hope so abundant, it will overflow and spill out of them.

Much like the believers in Rome, we also live in a time when each day brings news of tragedies and violence. Yet we, too, can turn with confidence and trust to the God of hope. When we believe the Good News of the Gospel, one of the most precious gifts we receive is hope. Just as it says in the old hymn, our “hope is built on nothing less than Jesus’ blood and righteousness.”

Thank you for your ongoing prayers for our FEBC broadcasters and staff as they work to bring this message of hope to those around the world who have yet to hear.

Until all have heard,
