一月份祈禱的要點 II

為阿曼祈禱的要點

 


Jebel Shams

Sun Mountain

Jebel Shams (Arabicجَبَل شَمْس, ) is a mountain located north of Al Hamra town. It is known as Jebel Shams (Sun Mountain) because it is supposedly the first place to receive the sunrise in Oman, due to its high peak. It is the highest mountain in the country, at 3,009 m (9,872 ft) high, and the second tallest in the Arabian Peninsula. Jebel Shams also features Wadi Ghul, a dramatically deep ravine known as the ‘Grand Canyon of Arabia.’

I lift up my eyes to the mountains—where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.

Psalm 121:1-2

  • We bless the people of Oman to find their help from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth!

  • May those who are searching for help today have an encounter with the true and living God.

Worship with us!: I Lift My Eyes Up by Brian Doerkson. May many Omanis recognize that their help comes from You and You alone!

Matthew 18:14 Focus—‘Your Father in heaven does not want one of these little ones to be lost.’

沙姆斯山

 

太陽山

 

沙姆斯山(https://www.google.com/maps/place/Jebel+Shams/)(阿拉伯語:جَبَل شَمْس)是一座位於哈姆拉鎮北部的山。它被稱為太陽山,因為它的山峰很高,據說是阿曼第一個看到日出的地方。它是該國最高的山,海拔3,009米(9,872英尺),是阿拉伯半島第二高的山。沙姆斯山還有古爾峽谷,這是一個極深極深的峽谷,被稱為「阿拉伯的大峽谷」。

 

我要向山舉目,我的幫助從何而來?我的幫助從造天地的耶和華而來。

詩篇121:1-2

 

  • 我們祝福阿曼人民從創造天地的主那裡得到幫助!

  • 願今天尋求幫助的人能遇見又真又活的神。

與我們一同敬拜!《我抬起我的眼睛》(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgpHAiPuaF8),布萊恩·杜爾克森。願許多阿曼人認識到,他們的幫助是從你而來,而且只從你而來。

Bahla

Forts, Pottery, and Black Magic

Bahla (Arabic: بهلا) is a town (population 39,576) in Ad-Dakhiliyah region, and the seat of Bahla district (population 88,286). It is famous as the home of one of the oldest fortresses in the country, the 13th-century Bahla Fort which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The fortress and old town are enclosed by extensive remnants of a 12-km (7.5 mile) fortified wall.

This area is known for many things. Its pottery is produced from local clay, still using traditional methods dating back to 2500 BC. It is also home to Jabreen Castle, a massive three-story structure built during Al Ya'ruba dynasty in 1675, famous for its ornate woodwork and painted ceilings. And Bahla is notorious as the center of witchcraft and occult practice for Oman, and is even renowned throughout the Arab Gulf for its black magic.

Pray for the Town and District of Bahla:

  • Glory of God. That God would be glorified and exalted and worshipped in Bahla. (Habakkuk 2:14, Psalm 138:4-5)

  • Expansion of the Kingdom. That many people in Bahla will come to know Jesus, and that communities of believers will be planted, that movements will be ignited. (Luke 1:32-33, 2 Cor 10:15-16)

  • Hearts and Minds. That spiritual blindness and bondages will be lifted from the minds of the people in Bahla, and that hearts will be stirred with hunger for Jesus and truth. (2 Cor 4:4, Luke 24:45)

  • Authority. Pray with the authority that Jesus gives you over principalities, powers and spiritual strongholds in Bahla. Pray that God would release prophetic words over the land, releasing visions, dreams, signs and wonders in Jesus’ name. (Matthew 18:18, 2 Cor 10:4)

  • Revival. That any believers living in Bahla would be awakened by the Holy Spirit, have love and passion stirred in them for the lost, and rise to meet the need in their neighborhood. (Luke 10:2, Ezekiel 37:10)

拜赫萊

 

堡壘,陶器和黑魔法

 

拜赫萊(https://goo.gl/maps/UHEmj9aZ8DpK4hzo8)(阿拉伯語:بهلا)是達希利亞行政區的一個城鎮(人口3萬9576),也是拜赫萊轄區(人口8萬8286)的中心地帶。它因擁有該國最古老的堡壘之一而聞名,13世紀的拜赫萊堡被聯合國教科文組織列為世界遺產。堡壘和老城區被一堵12公里(7.5英里)長的堅固城牆的大量殘餘所包圍。

 

這個地區因許多事情而聞名。它的陶器是用當地的粘土製作的,仍然使用公元前2500年的傳統方法製作。它也是賈布林城堡的所在地,這是一座巨大的三層建築,建於1675年的亞魯巴王朝,以其華美的木製品和彩繪天花板而聞名。拜赫萊是阿曼臭名昭著的巫術和神秘活動實踐中心,甚至在整個阿拉伯海灣都因其黑魔法而有名。

 

為拜赫萊這個城鎮和轄區禱告:

 

  • 神的榮耀。神將在拜赫萊得榮耀,尊崇和敬拜。(哈巴谷書2:14;詩篇138:4-5)

  • 神國的擴展。拜赫萊的許多人將會認識耶穌,信徒群體將會扎根,激起植堂運動。(路加福音1:32-33;哥林多後書10:15-16)

  • 心靈與頭腦。拜赫萊人民的頭腦中,屬靈的盲目和束縛將被破除,他們的心靈將萌發對耶穌和真理的渴慕。(哥林多後書4:4,路加福音24:45)

  • 權柄。用耶穌給你的權柄禱告,這權柄勝過拜赫萊的公國統治權、權勢和屬靈的營壘。求神奉耶穌的名在地上賜下先知的話語,賜下異象、異夢、神蹟和奇事。(馬太福音18:18,哥林多後書10:4)

  • 復興。願任何生活在拜赫萊的信徒都能被聖靈喚醒,對失喪之人的愛和熱心在他們裡面被激發,並起來滿足他們鄰舍的需要。(路加福音10:2,以西結書37:10)

  • 供應。願神將他的供應和福氣帶給拜赫萊所有有需要的人。他要顯示他永遠的慈愛,顯明他國度的賜福,使他的百姓興旺。(腓立比書4:19,耶利米書29:7)

與我們一同敬拜!《陶匠的手》(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgXL3y9RIbI),新頌敬拜團。願拜赫萊的人民把自己交在陶匠的手中!

Medinat Al-Sahar

Bahla: The City of Magic

Bahla is also known in Arabic as Medinat al-Sahar (مدينة السحر) or City of Magic. Legends and stories abound about the demonic origins of various monuments, the abundance of ‘jinn’ (demons) haunting the streets, high rates of demonic possession, and people who come here from all over the Arab Gulf for exorcisms, curses, amulets and other occult practices.

One account says that the massive Bahla fort was built in one night by jinn; another account says jinn built the city walls and are stationed on it. Yet another says a mosque on a hill was also constructed overnight by the jinn. An ancient tree in the old market is said to be a source demonic possession or even death if touched. Some say Bahla is even the 'birthplace of jinn."

Although many of the legends contradict each other, and it’s hard to get a clear picture of the actual spiritual landscape, one thing is certain—the demonic has a unique claim over this city. According to one account by a local man:

“But in the end, this is all jinn... They want to tear us apart—our minds, communities, with arguments, disbelief, everything. And all the time the jinn are still here, waiting. This is the burden of Bahla.”

You can watch a prayer video about Bahla and black magic here.

"So submit to the authority of God. Resist the devil [stand firm against him] and he will flee from you." James 4:7 (AMP)

  • Pray that the people of Bahla would submit to the authority of the one true and living God.

  • Pray that the people of Bahla would resist the devil, and no longer live in fear of him.

  • Pray that the power and the legal ‘right’ of the demonic over this city would be broken, and the devil would flee from this place.

  • Pray that this city would no longer be known as a city of darkness, but rather would be famous for being a city of light.

拜赫萊:魔法之城

 

拜赫萊在阿拉伯語中也被稱為Medinat Al-Sahar(مدينة السحر)或魔法之城。關於各種遺跡的惡魔起源的傳說和故事比比皆是,大量的「精靈」(惡靈)出沒在街道上,惡魔附身的比例很高,人們從阿拉伯海灣各地來到這裡尋求驅魔,詛咒,避邪和其他神秘活動。

 

一種說法是,巨大的拜赫萊堡是由精靈在一夜之間建造的;另一種說法是精靈建造了城牆並駐扎在上面。然而還有人說,一座山上的清真寺也是由精靈在一夜之間建造的。老市集裡的一棵古樹據說是惡魔附身的來源,如果觸摸甚至會死亡。有人說拜赫萊甚至是「精靈的誕生地」。

 

盡管許多傳說相互矛盾,而且很難清晰地描繪出真實的屬靈景觀,但有一件事是肯定的-惡靈對這座城市擁有獨特的所有權。根據一位當地人的描述(https://psmag.com/social-justice/edge-of-the-arabian-desert-the-jinn-of-oman):

 

「但說到底,這全部都是精靈…他們想要撕裂我們-我們的思想,我們的社區,用爭論,懷疑,一切事物。而精靈一直都在這裡等待著。這是拜赫萊的重擔。」

 

你可以在這裡觀看關於拜赫萊和黑魔法的禱告視頻(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0TQ0MDKJjfg)。

 

「所以,要順服神。要抵擋魔鬼【堅決反對他】,魔鬼就必逃避你們;」(雅各書4:7)

 

  • 禱告拜赫萊的人民會順服獨一的又真又活的神的權柄。

  • 禱告拜赫萊的人民會抵擋魔鬼,不再生活在對他的懼怕中。

  • 禱告惡靈在這個城市的能力和合法「權利」會被打破,魔鬼會逃離這個地方。

  • 禱告這座城市不再被稱為黑暗之城,而是以光明之城而聞名。

與我們一同敬拜!《永有真神》(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D7HSYv203Co),新生命敬拜團。願拜赫萊的惡魔力量在永有真神面前逃離!

Bahla Fort

A Physical and Spiritual Stronghold

Bahla Fort (قلعة بهلاء) is one of the oldest and largest forts in Oman, and is the country’s only fort on the UNESCO World Heritage List. The fort was built between the 12th and 15th century by the powerful Banu Nebhan tribe, who controlled the frankincense trade at the time and made Bahla their capital. But some parts of the fort are thought to have been built before then, with artifacts found dating back as early as 500 BC. The fort was constructed of local mud-brick, and has remarkably survived through the centuries, with the occasional restoration.

There are various paranormal stories surrounding the fort. Legend has it that Bahla was threatened by an attack from a neighboring kingdom and the ruler reached out to a jinn for help. The massive fort was supposedly built overnight and the enemy armies made a hasty retreat after just looking at it. Another legend says that the fort was built upon a site where a sorcerer was stoned for his wizardry, and his spirit has haunted the fort and impeded restoration ever since.

According to one Omani historian who helped with the most recent restoration of the fort from 1987-2012: ‘“Bahla was the center of military, religion, and politics in that age. And powerful people attracted powerful jinn,” he admits, recalling stories of ancient Bahlawi generals who were potent enough to stand atop the fort and command the jinn.’

This fort is a stronghold in the physical realm, as well as in the spiritual realm. Let’s pray that the demonic stronghold over Bahla will come down!

[Jesus] canceled the record of the charges against us and took it away by nailing it to the cross. In this way, He disarmed the spiritual rulers and authorities. He shamed them publicly by His victory over them on the cross. Colossians 2:14-15

  • Let’s exalt the triumphant victory of Jesus at the cross over the city of Bahla!

  • Let’s declare the disarming of spiritual rulers and authorities over Bahla!

  • Let’s proclaim that Jesus offers the people of Bahla forgiveness of sin and eternal life!

拜赫萊堡壘

 

一個實體和屬靈的營壘

 

拜赫萊堡壘(قلعة بهلاء)是阿曼最古老、最大的堡壘之一,也是該國唯一被聯合國教科文組織列入世界遺產名錄的堡壘(http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/433/)。這座堡壘建於12世紀到15世紀之間,由強大的巴努內布汗部落建造,他們當時控制著乳香貿易,並將拜赫萊作為他們的首府。但是堡壘的某些部分被認為是在那之前建造的,發現的文物可以追溯到公元前500年。這座堡壘是用當地的泥磚建造的,極不尋常地在多個世紀中倖存下來,偶爾會進行修復。

 

城堡周圍有各種各樣的超自然故事。傳說拜赫萊受到來自鄰國的攻擊威脅,統治者向精靈尋求幫助。這座巨大的堡壘據說是一夜之間建成的,敵軍只是看了一眼就匆忙撤退了。另一個傳說是,這座堡壘建在一個巫師因施展魔法而被石頭砸死的地方,他的靈魂一直縈繞在堡壘附近,從那時起就阻礙了修復。

 

一位阿曼歷史學家在1987年至2012年期間幫助修復了這座堡壘,根據他的說法(https://psmag.com/social-justice/edge-of-the-arabian-desert-the-jinn-of-oman):「拜赫萊是那個時代的軍事、宗教和政治中心。強大的人吸引強大的精靈,」他承認,回憶起古代拜赫萊將軍的故事,他們強大到足以站在堡壘頂上指揮精靈。

 

這個堡壘既是物質世界的堡壘,也是屬靈世界的堡壘。讓我們禱告惡魔在拜赫萊的營壘會被摧毀!

 

【耶穌】塗去了在律例上所寫、敵對我們、束縛我們的字據,把它撤去,釘在十字架上。基督既將一切執政者、掌權者的權勢解除了,就在凱旋的行列中,將他們公開示眾,仗著十字架誇勝。

(歌羅西書2:14-15)

 

  1. l讓我們頌贊耶穌在十字架上取得了對拜赫萊城的巨大勝利!

  2. l讓我們宣告驅散拜赫萊的屬靈統治者,解除屬靈統治者對這裡的權柄!

  3. l讓我們宣揚耶穌賜給拜赫萊人赦罪和永生!

Jinn

More Than Just a Genie

The belief in jinn is quite prevalent in Bahla, as we’ve seen, and throughout all of Oman. In the West, if we think of a 'genie', (English form of 'jinn'), we think of Aladdin and his magical lamp. But in Oman, jinn are thought to be everywhere. If a lightbulb is flickering because it is about to go out, it is caused by a jinn. Typical Omani homes include ‘jinn lights’ in the bedrooms—small colored lamps meant to keep the jinn away while they sleep. One of the reasons Omanis burn incense in their homes daily is to keep the jinn out. If something goes wrong in your surroundings, it often is attributed to jinn making mischief, or being malevolent. Although Omanis would say that magic and occult practices are not a part of Islam, belief in jinn certainly is. Let’s go a little deeper into this belief in jinn to know better how to pray. According to one source:

Among Muslims—the second-largest religious group in the world—belief in spirit beings is common, and descriptions of them are particularly vivid in Islamic texts. The Qur’an tells the story of the birth of the jinn, supernatural creatures born of “smokeless fire,” while further verses and Hadith—collections of quotes attributed to the prophet Muhammed that supplement the holy book of Islam—lay out further details of the origins and principles of jinn.

These texts present an unsettling picture of jinn: extremely powerful beings made in the eyes of Allah alongside humans but with a proclivity for following the evil lead of Iblis, a haughty jinn (later to be known as Satan) who refused to bow to the superiority of Adam and subsequently vowed to lead all humans astray. Jinn also enjoy lurking in dark, unclean places, and Islamic doctrine even offers a supplication to ward off these foul spirits specifically for when entering shadowy or impure places like that bathroom: “In the name of God, I take refuge with you from all evil and evildoers."

So, let us pray for Omanis today, that they would take refuge from jinn with the true and living God.

Little children (believers, dear ones), you are of God and you belong to Him and have [already] overcome them [the agents of the antichrist]; because He who is in you is greater than he (Satan) who is in the world [of sinful mankind]. (I John 4:4 AMP)

  • Pray for Omanis to be freed from the fear of jinn that rules many of their lives.

  • Pray for the power of Jesus to free and heal to be demonstrated to those oppressed and in bondage to demons.

精靈

 

不僅僅是一個(精靈)妖怪

 

正如我們所看到的,對精靈的信仰在拜赫萊和整個阿曼都很普遍。在西方,如果我們想到「精靈」,我們會想到阿拉丁和他的神燈。但在阿曼,人們認為精靈無處不在。如果一個燈泡因為即將熄滅而閃爍,那是精靈造成的。典型的阿曼家庭在臥室里都有「精靈燈」-一種小小的彩色燈,用來在人們睡覺時趕走精靈。阿曼人每天在家里燒香的原因之一是為了防止精靈進入。如果你周圍的環境出了問題,人們通常會把它歸咎於精靈的惡作劇或惡意。雖然阿曼人會說魔法和神秘活動的實踐不是伊斯蘭的一部分,但對精靈的信仰肯定是。讓我們更深入地了解一下對精靈的信仰,以便更好地知道如何禱告。根據一個資訊來源(https://psmag.com/social-justice/edge-of-the-arabian-desert-the-jinn-of-oman):

 

在世界上第二大宗教團體-穆斯林中,對靈性存在的信仰是普遍的,對他們的描述在伊斯蘭文本中尤為生動。古蘭經講述了精靈誕生的故事,精靈是一種超自然的生物,誕生於「無煙之火」,而進一步的經文和聖訓-被認為是先知穆罕默德的名言集合,補充了伊斯蘭聖書-進一步詳細介紹了精靈的起源和原理。

 

這些文本呈現了一幅令人不安的精靈的畫面:在真主的眼中是極其強大的存在,與人類並肩而生,但卻傾向於追隨易卜劣廝【魔鬼】的邪惡領導,易卜劣廝是一個傲慢自大的精靈(後來被稱為撒旦),他拒絕向阿丹【亞當】的優越低頭,隨後發誓要把所有人類引入歧途。精靈也喜歡潛伏在黑暗、不潔的地方,伊斯蘭教義甚至專門為進入陰暗或不潔的地方,比如浴室,提出了一套祈願詞,以抵禦這些邪惡的靈:「以真主的名義,我與你一起躲避所有邪惡和為惡者。」

 

所以,讓我們今天為阿曼人禱告,希望他們能得到真正的神的庇護躲避精靈。

 

孩子們【信徒們,親愛的人們】哪,你們是屬神的,並且【已經】勝過了假先知【敵基督者的代理人】,因為那在你們裡面的比那在【罪惡人類的】世界上的【撒旦】更大。(約翰一書4:4)

 

  • 禱告阿曼人從對主宰他們生活的精靈的恐懼中解脫出來。

  • 禱告耶穌顯明他的能力,釋放和醫治那些受壓迫和受惡魔捆綁的人。

比德比德

 

治療泉水

 

比德比德(https://www.google.com/maps/place/Bidbid/)(بدبد)是達希利亞行政區的一個城鎮(人口7672),也是最北端轄區(人口3萬7434)的中心地帶,毗鄰馬斯喀特。該地區有八所公立學校,一座大型蘇丹卡布斯清真寺,一個醫療中心和一個軍事建築群。凡雅是該地區最大的城鎮(人口1萬4755人),已有400多年的歷史。

 

比德比德以其美麗的凡雅河谷景觀而聞名,它將其河岸分為兩部分。16世紀的比德比德堡壘坐落在該地區中心的河谷旁,周圍村莊有40座瞭望塔,曾經是該地區的防禦工事。這裡有來自山裡的泉水,也有貫穿整個地區的灌溉渠系統。辛因硫磺泉是一個受歡迎的旅遊勝地,人們在這裡沐浴,享受泉水的療愈功效。

 

為比德比德的城鎮和轄區禱告:

 

  • 神的榮耀。神將在比德比德得榮耀,尊崇和敬拜。(哈巴谷書2:14;詩篇138:4-5)

  • 神國的擴展。比德比德的許多人將會認識耶穌,信徒群體將會扎根,激起植堂運動。(路加福音1:32-33;哥林多後書10:15-16)

  • 心靈與頭腦。比德比德人民的頭腦中,屬靈的盲目和束縛將被破除,他們的心靈將萌發對耶穌和真理的渴慕。(哥林多後書4:4,路加福音24:45)

  • 權柄。用耶穌給你的權柄禱告,這權柄勝過比德比德的公國統治權、權勢和屬靈的營壘。求神奉耶穌的名在地上賜下先知的話語,賜下異象、異夢、神蹟和奇事。(馬太福音18:18,哥林多後書10:4)

  • 復興。願任何生活在比德比德的信徒都能被聖靈喚醒,對失喪之人的愛和熱心在他們裡面被激發,並起來滿足他們鄰舍的需要。(路加福音10:2,以西結書37:10)

  • 供應。願神將他的供應和福氣帶給比德比德所有有需要的人。他要顯示他永遠的慈愛,顯明他國度的賜福,使他的百姓興旺。(腓立比書4:19,耶利米書29:7)_______________________________________

Holy Spirit

Be Poured Out in Ad-Dakhiliyah!

Today, let us pray for the release of the Holy Spirit over Ad-Dakhiliyah. At Pentecost, God poured out the promised Holy Spirit, empowering the early church and drawing many to believe. Peter said in Acts 2:17-21,

“What you see was predicted long ago by the prophet Joel: ‘In the last days,’ God says, ‘I will pour out my Spirit upon all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy. Your young men will see visions, and your old men will dream dreams. In those days I will pour out my Spirit even on my servants—men and women alike—and they will prophesy. And I will cause wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth below—blood and fire and clouds of smoke. The sun will become dark, and the moon will turn blood red before that great and glorious day of the Lord arrives. But everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.’"

We want to see the Holy Spirit poured out, so that people in Ad-Dakhiliyah will call on the name of the Lord and be saved!

  • Pray for the Holy Spirit to be moving over Ad-Dakhiliyah region of Oman, stirring up hunger and thirst to know Truth. (Matthew 5:6)

  • Pray for many in the Ad-Dakhiliyah to have dreams and visions of Jesus. (Joel 2:28)

  • Pray for miraculous signs and wonders to be released in the Ad-Dakhiliyah, pointing to the power and authority of Jesus. (Acts 4:30)

  • Pray for believers in the region to be strengthened in the gifts of the Spirit, and to grow in the fruit of the Spirit. (1 Cor. 12:4-11, Galatians 5:22–23)

聖靈

 

澆灌在達希利亞!

 

今天,讓我們禱告聖靈在達希利亞遍地遊走運行。在五旬節,神澆灌應許的聖靈,使早期教會有能力,並吸引許多人相信。彼得在使徒行傳2:17-21中說,

 

「這正是藉著先知約珥所說的:『神說:在末後的日子,我要將我的靈澆灌凡血肉之軀的。你們的兒女要說預言;你們的少年要見異象;你們的老人要做異夢。在那些日子,我要把我的靈澆灌,甚至給我的僕人和婢女,他們要說預言。在天上,我要顯出奇事,在地下,我要顯出神蹟,有血,有火,有煙霧。太陽要變為黑暗,月亮要變為血,這都在主大而光榮的日子未到以前。那時,凡求告主名的都必得救。』」

 

我們想看到聖靈的澆灌,好叫達希利亞的人呼求主的名而得救!

 

  • 禱告聖靈運行在阿曼的達希利亞行政區,激起人們想認識真理的渴慕之心。(馬太福音5:6)

  • 禱告達希利亞的許多人得到關於耶穌的夢境和異象。(約珥書2:28)

  • 禱告降下神蹟奇事在達希利亞,指向耶穌的能力和權柄。(使徒行傳4:30)

  • 禱告該地區的信徒在聖靈的恩賜上得到堅固,並在聖靈的果子中成長。(哥林多前書12:4-11,加拉太書5:22-23)

Ad-Dakhiliyah Seekers

All Who Are Thirsty

We know that the Father is actively at work in Oman, to begin drawing people to His Son, Jesus (John 6:44). Researchers estimate that approximately 2.5% of any given population is open for religious change. So in the Ad-Dakhiliyah region, that means approximately 11,963 people are potentially open!

‘Broad sowing’ initiatives to find seekers are challenging in Oman, because of laws outlawing proselytization. However, social media campaigns are starting to connect with seekers, and beginning to bear fruit. Today, let’s pray for seekers in the Ad-Dakhiliyah region, and the social media efforts to connect with them.

Let's pray for the seekers in Ad-Dakhiliyah:

  • Pray for the 2.5% of Ad-Dakhliyah region (11,963 people) that are potentially open for spiritual change. (Acts 26:18)

  • Pray for thousands of sincere seekers to go online to learn more about Jesus, and to come across the media ads, and to engage with the content. (Psalm 63:1)

  • Pray for boldness for seekers, to start up a conversation with the online responder, and to be willing to meet face-to-face with a disciple-maker. (Psalm 27:1)

  • Pray for the meetings with seekers and disciples-makers, that they would lead to the seeker’s commitment to follow Jesus. (Matthew 16:24)

Worship with us!: All Who Are Thirsty by Vineyard Worship. May the thirsty seekers in Ad-Dakhiliyah respond to the invitation and come to Him!

達希利亞的慕道者

 

所有渴慕的人

 

我們知道天父正在阿曼積極地工作,開始吸引人們歸向他的兒子耶穌(約翰福音6:44)。研究人員估計,在任何給定的人口中,大約有2.5%的人對宗教改變持開放態度。因此,在達希利亞行政區,這意味著大約有1萬1963人可能是開放的!

 

在阿曼,尋找慕道者的「廣泛播種」計畫具有挑戰性,因為法律宣佈使人改變宗教信仰不合法。然而,社交媒體活動開始與慕道者建立聯繫,並開始取得成果。今天,讓我們為達希利亞行政區的慕道者以及社交媒體與他們聯繫的努力禱告。

 

讓我們為達希利亞的慕道者禱告:

 

  • 禱告2.5%的達希利亞行政區人口(1萬1963人)可能對屬靈改變保持開放。(使徒行傳26:18)

  • 禱告成千上萬真誠的慕道者在網上更多地了解耶穌,並看到媒體廣告,並參與其中。(詩篇63:1)

  • 禱告慕道者有勇氣與網路回應者對話,並願意與門徒教導者親自見面。(詩篇27:1)

  • 禱告慕道者和門徒教導者可以聚會,使他們能夠帶領慕道者委身跟隨耶穌。(馬太福音16:24)

Izki

Oman's Oldest City

Izki (إزكي) is a town (pop. 35,173) and seat of Izki district (pop. 58, 905) in the Ad-Dakhiliyah region. At more than 2600 years old, it is considered one of the oldest cities in Oman. It has been a well-known meeting point for trade at the end of the route from Muscat to Nizwa, and currently comprises many villages, the most prominent being Al Yemen and Al Nizar. Al Nizar is still inhabited, but Al Yemen, which sits opposite it, has been abandoned since the 1970s. Its ruins are a popular tourist attraction, as are the ruins of the nearby village of Imti.

There have been many ancient archeological finds within this area dating back to the pre-Islamic period, including those from the Early and Late Iron Ages. Izki was mentioned in Early Iron Age (640 BC) cuneiform texts, and some even believe that similar texts from Ninevah mention Izki. You can also find the Jarnan Cave within the ruins of Izki, and legend has it that before Islam entered this area, the people sought to hide a golden calf they worshiped within this cave. Lastly, Falaj al Maliki, one of the oldest and most famous falaj systems in the area, can be tied back to Malik bin Fahm al Azdi, who led the Azdi tribe out of Yemen and into Oman some 1800 years ago.

Pray for the Town and District of Izki:

  • Glory of God. That God would be glorified and exalted and worshipped in Izki. (Habakkuk 2:14, Psalm 138:4-5)

  • Expansion of the Kingdom. That many people in Izki will come to know Jesus, and that communities of believers will be planted, that movements will be ignited. (Luke 1:32-33, 2 Cor 10:15-16)

  • Hearts and Minds. That spiritual blindness and bondages will be lifted from the minds of the people in Izki, and that hearts will be stirred with hunger for Jesus and truth. (2 Cor 4:4, Luke 24:45)

  • Authority. Pray with the authority that Jesus gives you over principalities, powers and spiritual strongholds in Izki. Pray that God would release prophetic words over the land, releasing visions, dreams, signs and wonders in Jesus’ name. (Matthew 18:18, 2 Cor 10:4)

  • Revival. That any believers living in Izki would be awakened by the Holy Spirit, have love and passion stirred in them for the lost, and rise to meet the need in their neighborhood. (Luke 10:2, Ezekiel 37:10)

  • Provision. That God would bring His provision and blessing to all those in need in Izki. That He would show His eternal kindness, demonstrate the blessing of His Kingdom, and cause His people to prosper. (Philippians 4:19, Jeremiah 29:7)

伊茲基

 

阿曼最古老的城市

 

伊茲基(https://www.google.com/maps/place/Izki)(إزكي)是達希利亞行政區的一個城鎮(人口3萬5173)和伊茲基區的中心地帶(人口5萬8905)。它有2600多年的歷史,被認為是阿曼最古老的城市之一。它一直是馬斯喀特到尼茲瓦路線末端的一個著名的貿易交匯點,目前由許多村莊組成,最著名的是也門和尼扎爾。尼扎爾仍有人居住,但對面的也門自20世紀70年代以來已被廢棄。它的遺址是一個受歡迎的旅遊景點,就像附近的伊姆蒂村的遺址一樣。

 

這個地區範圍內有許多古代考古發現,可以追溯到前伊斯蘭時期,包括鐵器時代的早期和晚期。伊茲基在早期鐵器時代(公元前640年)的楔形文字中被提到,有些人甚至認為尼尼微的類似文本中也提到了伊茲基。你也可以在伊茲基的遺址中找到賈爾南洞穴,傳說在伊斯蘭進入這個地區之前,人們試圖在這個洞穴里隱藏他們敬拜的一隻金牛犢。最後要說的是,馬利克灌溉渠是該地區最古老、最著名的灌溉渠體系之一,它可以追溯到大約1800年前領導阿茲迪部落從也門進入阿曼的馬利克·本·法哈姆·阿茲迪。

 

為伊茲基這個城市和轄區禱告:

 

  • 神的榮耀。神將在伊茲基得榮耀,尊崇和敬拜。(哈巴谷書2:14;詩篇138:4-5)

  • 神國的擴展。伊茲基的許多人將會認識耶穌,信徒群體將會扎根,激起植堂運動。(路加福音1:32-33;哥林多後書10:15-16)

  • 心靈與頭腦。伊茲基人民的頭腦中,屬靈的盲目和束縛將被破除,他們的心靈將萌發對耶穌和真理的渴慕。(哥林多後書4:4,路加福音24:45)

  • 權柄。用耶穌給你的權柄禱告,這權柄勝過伊茲基的公國統治權、權勢和屬靈的營壘。求神奉耶穌的名在地上賜下先知的話語,賜下異象、異夢、神蹟和奇事。(馬太福音18:18,哥林多後書10:4)

  • 復興。願任何生活在伊茲基的信徒都能被聖靈喚醒,對失喪之人的愛和熱心在他們裡面被激發,並起來滿足他們鄰舍的需要。(路加福音10:2,以西結書37:10)

  • 供應。願神將他的供應和福氣帶給伊茲基所有有需要的人。他要顯示他永遠的慈愛,顯明他國度的賜福,使他的百姓興旺。(腓立比書4:19,耶利米書29:7)

Movements

Rapid Multiplication of Disciples and Churches in Ad-Dakhiliyah

We want to see the fullness of the Kingdom of God coming into every part of the Dakhiliyah region, like yeast penetrating the entire batch of dough (Matt. 13:33). And the fastest way for this to happen is by rapidly reproducing disciples and groups (churches), who spread and multiply within and across their families, tribes, social networks, and societies.

Acts 6:7 is our heart’s desire and fervent prayer: “God's word reigned supreme and kept spreading. The number of Jesus' followers in [Ad-Dakhiliyah] quickly grew and increased by the day.”

  • Pray that seekers/new disciples would form groups to pray and study the Word together, forming a church. (Hebrews 10:25)

  • Pray that these new groups/churches would mature and multiply, leading to movements of healthy, reproducing churches. (Acts 16:5)

  • Pray for the raising up and multiplication of Omani leadership in these groups and networks. (2 Tim. 2:2)

  • Pray for spiritual protection from the enemy, covering over new believers, new groups, and new leaders as they emerge (I Pet. 5:8)

  • Pray that these movements would overcome the obstacles that hinder growth, like fear, pride, corruption, disunity, etc. (Ephesians 4:1-4, 20-23)

  • Pray that Christ alone would be the foundation of these groups and movements (I Cor. 3:11)

  • Pray for the fullness of the Kingdom of God to spread and penetrate into every aspect of society and culture, in Ad-Dakhiliyah as it is in heaven. (Matthew 6:10)

運動

 

達希利亞門徒和教會的快速倍增

 

我們想要看到神的國度充滿達希利亞行政區的每一個角落,就像酵母滲透整個麵團一樣(馬太福音13:33)。而實現這一目標的最快方式是快速重複栽培門徒和團體(教會),他們在家庭、部落、社交網路和社會中擴散和倍增。

 

使徒行傳6:7是我們內心的渴望和熱切的禱告:「神的道興旺起來【至高無上,不斷傳播】;【達希利亞的】門徒數目增加得很多【迅速增長,與日俱增】。」

 

  • 禱告慕道者/新門徒會組成團體,一起禱告和學習神的話語,形成一個教會。(希伯來書10:25)

  • 禱告這些新的團體/教會會逐漸成熟和擴張,引領運作良好的重複栽培教會的運動。(使徒行傳16:5)

  • 禱告這些團體和人際關係網中興起和倍增阿曼人的帶領。(提摩太後書2:2)

  • 禱告當新信徒、新團體和新領袖湧現時,神在屬靈上保守他們脫離仇敵,遮蓋他們。(彼得前書5:8)

  • 禱告這些運動會克服阻礙成長的障礙,如恐懼、驕傲、墮落、不合一等。(以弗所書4:1-4,20-23)

  • 禱告唯獨基督會成為這些團體和運動的根基。(哥林多前書3:11)

    • 禱告神的國度的豐盛,如同在天堂一樣在達希利亞傳播並滲透到社會和文化的每一個方面。(馬太福音6:10)

Manah

Gift of God

Manah (منح) is a town (population: 7,749) and the seat of Manah district (pop. 25,320) in the Ad-Dakhiliyah region. The word Manah in Arabic means ‘gift of God’, or ‘blessing’. The old town of Manah is one of Oman’s oldest archaeological sites and contains four mosques, 376 ancient houses, and almost 250 wells which are over nine centuries old. Al Fiqain castle, built in 1617, towers above the ancient ruins of the city, a dramatically beautiful site.

Manah is also growing in prominence as a place for learning Arabic, as Sultan Qaboos College for Teaching Arabic to Non-Native speakers is located there. Sponsored by the Royal Court, the college aims to become one of the leaders in teaching Modern Standard Arabic to foreigners.

瑪納

 

神的禮物

 

瑪納(https://www.google.com/maps/place/Manah/)(منح)是達希利亞行政區的一個城鎮(人口:7749)和瑪納區的中心地帶(人口:2萬5320)。瑪納這個詞在阿拉伯語中的意思是「神的禮物」或「福氣」。瑪納老城是阿曼最古老的考古遺址之一,擁有四座清真寺、376座古代房屋和近250口有9個多世紀歷史的井。菲克因城堡,建於1617年,聳立在城市的古代遺址之上,是一個非常美麗的地方。

 

作為一個學習阿拉伯語的地方,瑪納的重要性也日益突出,因為向非母語人士教授阿拉伯語的蘇丹卡布斯學院就坐落於此。該學院由皇家宮廷資助,目的是成為向外國人教授現代標準阿拉伯語的帶頭機構之一。

Fanja

Festivals and Rituals

Fanja (فنجاء) is the largest town in Bidbid district (pop. 14,755) in the Ad-Dakhiliyah region, about 25 km from Muscat. Fanja is known for its beautiful wadis, therapeutic hot springs, watchtower ruins, and traditional market in which you can find local items such as baskets, spices, pottery, etc.

Fanja is also famous for its Azwah festival, celebrating the end of the Ramadan fasting month, held during Eid al Fitr. Residents (mainly men and boys) shoot cannons and rifles, perform traditional dances and sword fights, recite poetry, and participate in highly-stylized rituals. Scholars say the celebration’s rituals may be pre-Islamic, but were later adapted into the Islamic holiday. In a similar but darker vein of pre-Islamic practices, it is also reported that Fanja is a site of animal sacrifice to jinn.

Pray for the Town of Fanja:

  • Glory of God. That God would be glorified and exalted and worshipped in Fanja. (Habakkuk 2:14, Psalm 138:4-5)

  • Expansion of the Kingdom. That many people in Fanja will come to know Jesus, and that communities of believers will be planted, that movements will be ignited. (Luke 1:32-33, 2 Cor 10:15-16)

  • Hearts and Minds. That spiritual blindness and bondages will be lifted from the minds of the people in Fanja, and that hearts will be stirred with hunger for Jesus and truth. (2 Cor 4:4, Luke 24:45)

  • Authority. Pray with the authority that Jesus gives you over principalities, powers and spiritual strongholds in Fanja. Pray that God would release prophetic words over the land, releasing visions, dreams, signs and wonders in Jesus’ name. (Matthew 18:18, 2 Cor 10:4)

  • Revival. That any believers living in Fanja would be awakened by the Holy Spirit, have love and passion stirred in them for the lost, and rise to meet the need in their neighborhood. (Luke 10:2, Ezekiel 37:10)

  • Provision. That God would bring His provision and blessing to all those in need in Fanja. That He would show His eternal kindness, demonstrate the blessing of His Kingdom, and cause His people to prosper. (Philippians 4:19, Jeremiah 29:7)

Worship with us!: Peace by Bethel & We the Kingdom. May God’s peace fall on Fanja, the true peace found through Jesus alone!

凡雅

 

節日和儀式

 

凡雅(فنجاء)是達希利亞行政區比德比德區(人口1萬4755)最大的城鎮,距離馬斯喀特約25公里。凡雅以其美麗的河谷、治療性溫泉、瞭望塔遺址和傳統市集而聞名,在那裡你可以找到當地的物品,如籃子、香料、陶器等。

 

凡雅也以其阿茲瓦節而聞名,慶祝齋月(禁食月)的結束,在開齋節期間舉行。居民(主要是男人和男孩)發射大炮和步槍,表演傳統舞蹈和劍術,背誦詩歌,並參加高度風格化的儀式。學者們說,慶祝活動的儀式可能是前伊斯蘭時期的,但後來被調整為伊斯蘭節日。也有記錄說,在一個類似的但更黑暗的前伊斯蘭習俗中,凡雅是一個將動物獻祭精靈的地方。

 

為凡雅這個城鎮禱告:

 

  • 神的榮耀。神將在凡雅得榮耀,尊崇和敬拜。(哈巴谷書2:14;詩篇138:4-5)

  • 神國的擴展。凡雅的許多人將會認識耶穌,信徒群體將會扎根,激起植堂運動。(路加福音1:32-33;哥林多後書10:15-16)

  • 心靈與頭腦。凡雅人民的頭腦中,屬靈的盲目和束縛將被破除,他們的心靈將萌發對耶穌和真理的渴慕。(哥林多後書4:4,路加福音24:45)

  • 權柄。用耶穌給你的權柄禱告,這權柄勝過凡雅的公國統治權、權勢和屬靈的營壘。求神奉耶穌的名在地上賜下先知的話語,賜下異象、異夢、神蹟和奇事。(馬太福音18:18,哥林多後書10:4)

  • 復興。願任何生活在凡雅的信徒都能被聖靈喚醒,對失喪之人的愛和熱心在他們裡面被激發,並起來滿足他們鄰舍的需要。(路加福音10:2,以西結書37:10)

  • 供應。願神將他的供應和福氣帶給凡雅所有有需要的人。他要顯示他永遠的慈愛,顯明他國度的賜福,使他的百姓興旺。(腓立比書4:19,耶利米書29:7)_______________________________________

Blessing Ad-Dahkiliyah

A Mighty Fortress

A powerful aspect of prayer is blessing, and every month we want to bless the region we are praying according to a scripture passage.

"You’re as real to [them] as bedrock beneath [their] feet, like a castle on a cliff, [their] forever firm fortress, [their] mountain of hiding, [their] pathway of escape, [their] tower of rescue where none can reach [them]. [Their] secret strength and shield around [them], You are salvation’s ray of brightness shining on the hillside, always the champion of [their] cause. " (Psalm 18:2 TPT)

We bless the peoples of Ad-Dakhiliyah come to know the true and living God as their fortress and refuge! We bless them to know the reality of Your nearness and Your strength! Shine the light of Your salvation upon them!

Samail

Birthplace of Islam in Oman

Samail (سمائل) is a town (pop. 29,691) and seat of the Samail district (pop. 80,402) in the Ad-Dakhiliyah region. Samail is famous for its date palm trees which blanket the area. Accordingly, there are numerous date factories located in the area. Samail is also known for the nearby valley, the "Sumail Gap," which divides the Al Hajar Mountains into the Eastern and Western subranges. This route–the main road from Muscat to Nizwa–was historically used for trade and communication between the coast and interior areas of Oman. Caravans used this passageway for trading in frankincense, and its explorers include Marco Polo and Ibn Battutah.

Samail was also home to the first Muslim convert in Oman, Mazin bin Ghadubah, who adopted Islam during Mohammed’s lifetime and was an ardent spreader of the new faith. Mazin Mosque, which he built in 627 AD, is the oldest mosque in Oman. The mosque has been restored many times, but it still retains the same ancient foundations. Mazin’s tomb is also here, and is a revered attraction.

Pray for the Town and District of Samail:

  • Glory of God. That God would be glorified and exalted and worshipped in Samail. (Habakkuk 2:14, Psalm 138:4-5)

  • Expansion of the Kingdom. That many people in Samail will come to know Jesus, and that communities of believers will be planted, that movements will be ignited. (Luke 1:32-33, 2 Cor 10:15-16)

  • Hearts and Minds. That spiritual blindness and bondages will be lifted from the minds of the people in Samail, and that hearts will be stirred with hunger for Jesus and truth. (2 Cor 4:4, Luke 24:45)

  • Authority. Pray with the authority that Jesus gives you over principalities, powers and spiritual strongholds in Samail. Pray that God would release prophetic words over the land, releasing visions, dreams, signs and wonders in Jesus’ name. (Matthew 18:18, 2 Cor 10:4)

  • Revival. That any believers living in Samail would be awakened by the Holy Spirit, have love and passion stirred in them for the lost, and rise to meet the need in their neighborhood. (Luke 10:2, Ezekiel 37:10)

  • Provision. That God would bring His provision and blessing to all those in need in Samail. That He would show His eternal kindness, demonstrate the blessing of His Kingdom, and cause His people to prosper. (Philippians 4:19, Jeremiah 29:7)

塞馬伊勒

 

阿曼伊斯蘭的發源地

 

塞馬伊勒(https://www.google.com/maps/place/Samail,+Oman/)(سمائل)是達希利亞行政區的一個城鎮(人口:2萬9691),是塞馬伊勒區(人口:8萬0402)的中心地帶。塞馬伊勒以其遍佈該地區的椰棗樹而聞名。因此,該地區有許不計其數的椰棗廠。塞馬伊勒也因附近的山谷而聞名,「塞馬伊勒縫隙」將哈賈爾山脈分為東部和西部區域。這條路線-從馬斯喀特到尼茲瓦的主要道路-在歷史上被用於阿曼沿海和內陸地區之間的貿易和通信。商隊使用這條通道進行乳香貿易,包括馬可·波羅和伊本·白圖泰在內的探險家都曾到此。

 

塞馬伊勒也是阿曼第一個皈依穆斯林的馬津·本·加杜巴的家鄉,他在穆罕默德在世時皈依了伊斯蘭,是這種新信仰的熱心傳播者。馬津清真寺建於公元627年,是阿曼最古老的清真寺。這座清真寺經過多次修復,但它仍然保留著同樣的古老地基。馬津的墳墓也在這裡,是一個受人崇敬的景點。

 

為塞馬伊勒這個城鎮和轄區禱告:

 

  • 神的榮耀。神將在塞馬伊勒得榮耀,尊崇和敬拜。(哈巴谷書2:14;詩篇138:4-5)

  • 神國的擴展。塞馬伊勒的許多人將會認識耶穌,信徒群體將會扎根,激起植堂運動。(路加福音1:32-33;哥林多後書10:15-16)

  • 心靈與頭腦。塞馬伊勒人民的頭腦中,屬靈的盲目和束縛將被破除,他們的心靈將萌發對耶穌和真理的渴慕。(哥林多後書4:4,路加福音24:45)

  • 權柄。用耶穌給你的權柄禱告,這權柄勝過塞馬伊勒的公國統治權、權勢和屬靈的營壘。求神奉耶穌的名在地上賜下先知的話語,賜下異象、異夢、神蹟和奇事。(馬太福音18:18,哥林多後書10:4)

  • 復興。願任何生活在塞馬伊勒的信徒都能被聖靈喚醒,對失喪之人的愛和熱心在他們裡面被激發,並起來滿足他們鄰舍的需要。(路加福音10:2,以西結書37:10)

    • 供應。願神將他的供應和福氣帶給塞馬伊勒所有有需要的人。他要顯示他永遠的慈愛,顯明他國度的賜福,使他的百姓興旺。(腓立比書4:19,耶利米書29:7)_______________________________________

Ripe Fields

Praying for the Harvest in Ad-Dakhiliyah

John 4:35–As you look around right now, wouldn’t you say that in about four months it will be time to harvest? Well, I’m telling you to open your eyes and take a good look at what’s right in front of you. These [Dakhiliyah] fields are ripe. It’s harvest time! (MSG)

Many Gospel seeds have been sown in this region, through numerous long-term and short-term Harvest Laborers. However, there currently are very few on the ground there now. Pray for their encouragement, strengthening, and protection. And let us pray earnestly to the Lord of the Harvest to send forth new Laborers there!

  • We declare that there is a ripe, abundant harvest in Ad-Dakhiliyah region!

  • We declare that there is much Good Soil in Ad-Dakhiliyah, that will bear fruit thirty-, sixty-, and a hundred-fold!

  • We declare open doors for Sowers and Reapers in Ad-Dakhiliyah!

  • We declare that seeds sown in the past will find good soil, be watered, and grow!

  • We declare that Harvest time in Ad-Dakhiliyah is NOW, not later!

Worship with us!: Lord of the Harvest by Lindy Cofer. The Lord of the Harvest is worthy! May many say 'yes' to His call to go to Ad-Dakhiliyah!

成熟的莊稼

 

為達希利亞的收割禱告

 

約翰福音4:35-你們不是說「到收割的時候還有四個月」嗎?我告訴你們,舉目向田觀看,【達希利亞的】莊稼熟了,可以收割了。

 

透過無數長期和短期的收割工人,福音的種子已經在這個地區播下。然而,目前在那裡的地面人員很少。禱告他們受到鼓勵、堅固和保護。讓我們懇切地向收割之主禱告,求祂派遣新的工人到那裡去!

 

  • 我們宣告,達希利亞行政區將獲得成熟、豐碩的收成!

  • 我們宣告,在達希利亞有許多好土壤,將結出三十倍,六十倍和一百倍的果實!

  • 我們宣告,達希利亞的大門為播種者和收割者敞開!

  • 我們宣告,過去播下的種子,會找到好的土壤,得到澆灌,茁壯成長!

  • 我們宣告,達希利亞的收割時間是現在,而不是以後!

與我們一同敬拜!《收割之主》(https://youtu.be/Omeea0HPxl8),林迪·科弗。收割之主是配得的!願許多人對他的呼召說「是」,到達希利亞去!
