MISSIONS MOMENT 

Fasting for Ramadan began on March 11. Ramadan, 30 days of fasting for the Muslim world, is a crucial time for Christ-followers to pray that Jesus would sovereignly reveal Himself to Muslim people. Now is also a key time to pray for laborers for the harvest, for Christ-followers to lovingly engage their Muslim neighbors, and for churches to welcome new believers who come from Muslim backgrounds. “This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of him.” 1 John 5:14-15
