A listener from India recently wrote: “I’m an elderly lady and find it difficult to commute to church every Sunday. Yet I have a good time with the Lord when I listen to your programs, such as ‘Worship Time.’ It allows me to worship God right here in my house. I praise God for this program.” We, too, praise God for all that He is accomplishing through FEBC. We thank all our ministry partners for the important role they play in this ministry of sharing the Good News among the nations.

From the President
September 2017 Prayer Target
“Listen to my cry for help, my King and my God, for to you I pray. In the morning, O Lord, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait in expectation” (Psalm 5:2-3).
In the book of Psalms, the great prayer and praise book of God’s people, we find these words of David as he calls to God for help. David, described as a man after God’s own heart (Acts 13:22), recognizes that in spite of his position of authority as the king of Israel, he still needs God’s help every day. Along with laying his requests before the Lord each day, David declares that he is waiting expectantly for God’s answers. David’s eagerness to receive God’s answer is certainly an indication of his great need, but it also shows how David places his trust in the certainty that God’s answer is on its way. Applying David’s example to our own lives, we are encouraged to go to the Lord each day with our requests for help. God’s mercies and compassion that are “new every morning”(Lam. 3:23) encourage us to approach each day with fresh expectancy that God’s answers to our requests are on their way. Thank you for praying with us and for us as we trust the Lord together!
Until all have heard,
