三月份祈禱的要點
為阿曼祈禱的要點
 Al-Wusta Region A Desolate Beauty Al Wusta region (pop. 52,344) sits in the middle of the country, between Dhofar to the south and Adh-Dhahira, Ad-Dakhliya, and Ash-Sharqiya to the north. Al Wusta (الوسطى) means "central" in Arabic. The regional capital is Haima, situated along the main highway running north to south. This area is sparsely populated but contains the majority of Oman's oil and gas reserves and a new industrial port at Duqm. It is also home to the nomadic Harasi people, with their own distinct language (Harsusi). The ‘Jiddat Al–Harasis’ stone desert covers the majority of the land here, but there is surprising ecological diversity. There are over 130 different species of birds, including migratory birds from as far away as Europe. The Barr Al Hikman peninsula is especially known for visiting flocks of flamingos. Further inland, the Arabian Oryx Sanctuary was established to protect this native breed of antelope that lives in the desert areas of the Arabian Peninsula. Other animals that can be found at the sanctuary include Nubian ibex, Arabian wolves, and Arabian gazelle. Truly, there is life in this seemingly desolate wasteland— may this be true spiritually as well! “Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. The wild beasts will honor Me, the jackals and the ostriches, for I give water in the wilderness, rivers in the desert, to give drink to My chosen people.” (Isaiah 43:19-20) May the people of Al Wusta receive Your streams of living water!

荒涼之美
烏斯塔（https://goo.gl/maps/35XYppLMXNKVozn57）行政區（人口5萬2344）位於該國中部，位於南部的佐法爾和北部的扎希拉、達希利亞和沙基亞之間。烏斯塔（الوسطى）在阿拉伯語中的意思是「中央」。行政區首府是海馬，位於南北走向的主要高速公路沿線。該地區人口稀少，但擁有阿曼大部分石油和天然氣儲量以及位於杜格姆的新工業港口。這裡也是遊牧民族哈拉西人的家園，他們擁有自己獨特的語言（哈拉西語）。
「哈拉西斯平原」礫質沙漠覆蓋了這裡的大部分土地，但這裡的生態多樣性卻令人驚訝。這裡有超過130種不同的鳥類，包括來自遙遠歐洲的候鳥。巴爾希克曼半島尤其以成群的火烈鳥來訪而聞名。在更遠的內陸地區，建立了阿拉伯長角羚羊保護區，為了保護這種生活在阿拉伯半島沙漠地區的本地品種的羚羊。在保護區可以看到的其他動物包括努比亞羱羊、阿拉伯狼和阿拉伯瞪羚。說實在的，在這片看似荒涼的荒地上，存在著如此多的生命力-但願這在屬靈生命上也是如此！
「看哪，我要作一件新事，如今要發現，你們豈不知道嗎？我必在曠野開道路，在沙漠開江河。野地的走獸必尊重我，野狗和鴕鳥也必如此。因我使曠野有水，使沙漠有河，好賜給我的百姓、我的選民喝。」（以賽亞書43：19-20）願烏斯塔的人民得到你的活水溪流！

 Al Wusta Rains Let It Rain in the Desert! The stony desert of Al Wusta gets an average of less than 2 inches of rain a year. However, monsoon rains in other areas cause humidity to rise and fog and dew to form during certain seasons. This precipitation is enough to sustain some sparse vegetation and animal life. As welcome as the rare rain is, the people of Al Wusta need the heavenly rain and living water of the Holy Spirit! Declare this over Al Wusta: Wilderness and desert will sing joyously, the badlands will celebrate and flower— Like the crocus in spring, bursting into blossom, a symphony of song and color. Springs of water will burst out in the wilderness, streams flow in the desert. Hot sands will become a cool oasis, thirsty ground a splashing fountain. Even lowly jackals will have water to drink, and barren grasslands flourish richly. (Isaiah 35:1-2, 6-7, The Message) May this harsh and barren land rejoice and come alive in the rain of its King!

讓沙漠下雨吧！
烏斯塔的礫質沙漠每年平均降雨量不到2英寸【5釐米】。然而，其他地區的季風性降雨會導致濕度上升，並在某些季節形成霧氣和露水。這種降水足夠維持一些稀少的植被和動物的生命。盡管罕見的雨水受人歡迎，但烏斯塔的人民需要天上的雨和聖靈的活水！
為烏斯塔宣告這些話：
曠野和乾旱之地必然歡喜，沙漠也必快樂，又像玫瑰開花。 必開花繁盛，樂上加樂，而且歡呼。黎巴嫩的榮耀，並迦密與沙侖的華美，必賜給它。人必看見耶和華的榮耀，我們神的華美。 那時瘸子必跳躍像鹿，啞巴的舌頭必能歌唱；在曠野必有水發出，在沙漠必有河湧流。 發光的沙要變為水池，乾渴之地要變為泉源；在野狗躺臥之處必有青草、蘆葦和蒲草。 （以賽亞書35：1-2，6-7）
願這片嚴酷貧瘠的土地在君王的雨露中歡欣鼓舞、煥發生機！

 The Harasi People Isolated Nomads The Harasi are an isolated, nomadic tribe in Jiddat-al-Harasis, the central gravel desert of Al-Wusta region. They are a distinct people group with a unique language, related to but different from Arabic. They eke out a living as camel and goat herders in an extremely harsh environment. Today many have found employment with the oil companies, or are involved with preservation efforts of the oryx. They number about 5000, although speakers of Harsusi are less, between 1000-3000. Here is a short video of the Harsusi language, mixed with Arabic. God, we pray for the Harasi people in Al Wusta, that they would:

 Omani Families, Pt. 1 The Bedrock of Omani Society The family is central and is the crux of traditional organization in Oman. Traditionally, the Omani family has been a patriarchal institution, and the father has been tasked with disciplining the children. The extended family is called upon with any problem issues that need to be resolved. The traditional Omani family has offered peace and security, as a stable family unit is highly valued by Islam/Omani Muslims. It has been the source of encouraging unselfish behavior, generosity, respect, and love. That said, the Omani family, like all other family institutions around the world, is undergoing dramatic changes due to globalization, Information Technology, and the Communication Revolution. "See how very much our Father loves us, for He calls us His children, and that is what we are!" (I John 3:1a) Lord, help Omanis to come to a deeper, more accurate understanding of Your love for them, and Your will for their lives, in order to fill their voids and restore their family relationships. May You give them grace and strength, and may they find salvation, healing, and restoration in Jesus. Amen. Worship with us!: God’s Family by Tommy Walker.

阿曼社會的基石
家庭是阿曼傳統組織結構的核心和關鍵。傳統上來說，阿曼家庭是一個父權式架構，父親的任務是管教孩子。任何需要解決的難處和議題都需要大家族來解決。
傳統的阿曼家庭提供了和平與安全，因為伊斯蘭/阿曼穆斯林高度重視穩定的家庭單位。它一直是鼓勵無私行為、慷慨、尊重和愛的堅定後盾。也就是說，阿曼家庭與世界各地所有其他家庭架構一樣，由於全球化、信息技術和通訊革命，正在經歷巨大的變化。
「你看父賜給我們是何等的慈愛，使我們得稱為神的兒女；我們也真是他的兒女！」 （約翰一書3：1）
主啊，請幫助阿曼人更深入、更確切地理解你對他們的愛，以及你對他們生命的旨意，以便填補他們的內心的空虛並恢復他們的家庭關係。願你賜給他們恩典和力量，願他們在耶穌裡找到救恩、醫治和復興。阿們。

 Omani Families, Pt. 2 Challenges Facing Families Some observers believe that the patriarchal family, which has been the cornerstone of Omani society, is undergoing a crisis. This is due in large part to open doors for multitudes of women to enter the workforce, and appears to be revolutionizing the traditional understanding of family roles. Today’s Omani women enjoy better education and good health services that give them the option to delay marriage and childbearing. Contraception is giving women growing control in this arena. This reduces the fertility rate and family size. Mothers working outside the home also greatly change the traditional family dynamic and roles. Many young Omani men are also delaying marriage, because of high unemployment rates and high costs of dowries and traditional weddings. High dowries have also led to an increase in marrying foreigners. Divorce rates have also been increasing, nearly doubling in 2020 due to the pandemic. Let’s pray for Omani families:

面臨挑戰的家庭
一些觀察者認為，作為阿曼社會基石的父權式家庭正在經歷危機。這在很大程度上是由於勞動力市場對為數眾多的女性打開了進入的大門，並且好像正在徹底改變傳統上對家庭角色的認知。
如今的阿曼婦女享有更好的教育和良好的醫療服務，這使她們可以選擇推遲結婚和生育。避孕措施讓女性在這個領域擁有越來越多的話語權。這降低了生育率和家庭規模。母親從家中外出工作也極大地改變了傳統的家庭關係動態和角色。
由於高失業率以及高昂的嫁妝和傳統婚禮成本，許多阿曼年輕男子也推遲結婚。高額嫁妝也導致與外國人結婚的人數增加。離婚率也在不斷上升，由於新冠疫情，2020年離婚率幾乎翻了一番。
讓我們為阿曼的家庭禱告：

 Haima Life in the Weary Desert Haima (pop. 7,814, Arabic: هيماء) is the capital of the Al-Wusta region, and seat of the Haima district (pop, 10,093). The town was settled after a team of oil explorers sunk a water well there. This was the first permanent water source in the Jiddat al-Harasis desert. The town is one of the few stops with services along the main desert highway connecting the north of the country to the south. In 1982 a school for boys and later one for girls was opened in Haima. Families from the nomadic Harasi tribe have increasingly settled in this location while schools are in session. Haima District covers the majority of Al-Wusta region, and is mostly desert. It is home to the Arabian Oryx reserve, and most of Oman’s oil and natural gas reserves. There are also some famous caves in the area for exploring. O God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water. (Psalm 63:1) We bless the people of Haima to earnestly seek the Living God, and to be satisfied! Pray for the Town and District of Haima:

海馬區覆蓋了烏斯塔行政區的大部分地區，大部分面積都是沙漠。它是阿拉伯長角羚羊保護區以及阿曼大部分石油和天然氣儲量的所在地。該地區還有一些著名的洞穴可供探索。

 Arabian Oryx The Arabian 'Unicorn' Al-Wusta region is home to the Arabian oryx, a breed of antelope found in the desert regions of the Arabian Peninsula. In 1972 the animal was hunted to extinction in the wild, and captive oryx were reintroduced to the area in 1982, in the Arabian Oryx Sanctuary. The wildlife preserve also contains the only wild breeding sites in Arabia of the endangered houbara bustard (game bird), as well as Nubian ibex, Arabian wolves, honey badgers, caracals (wildcats), and the largest wild population of Arabian gazelle. The initial wildlife preservation efforts of Oman were heralded as the sanctuary became a UNESCO world heritage site in 1994. However, in 2007 the sanctuary was the first and only site to be stripped of the UNESCO designation after Oman reduced the size of the preserve by 90% upon the discovery of oil inside its borders, and poaching caused the oryx population to decline from 450 to only 65. Since then, preservation efforts have stepped up, the oryx population has steadily grown, and in 2017 Oman opened up the wildlife preserve for tourism. The fabled Arabian ‘unicorn’, so-called because of its distinctive profile silhouette, still survives and indeed seems to be thriving. Psalms 42:1-2 NLT. As the deer longs for streams of water, so I long for you, O God. I thirst for God, the living God. When can I go and stand before Him?

阿拉伯的「獨角獸」
烏斯塔行政區是阿拉伯長角羚羊的家園，這是阿拉伯半島沙漠地域發現的一個羚羊品種。1972年，這種動物在野外被獵殺至滅絕，圈養羚羊於1982年在阿拉伯長角羚羊保護區被重新引入該地區。該野生動物保護區還擁有阿拉伯唯一的瀕臨滅絕的波斑鴇（獵禽）野生繁殖地，以及努比亞野山羊、阿拉伯狼、蜜獾、獰貓（野貓）和最大的野生阿拉伯瞪羚種群。
阿曼最初的野生動物保護工作因該保護區於1994年成為聯合國教科文組織世界遺產而受到讚譽。然而，在2007年，由於阿曼在其境內發現石油，將保護區的面積減少了90%，而且偷獵行為導致長角羚羊的數量從450隻減少到只有65隻，該保護區成為第一個也是唯一一個被聯合國教科文組織取消指定為世界遺產的地方。此後，保護工作不斷加強，長角羚羊數量穩步增長，2017年，阿曼為旅遊業開放了野生動物保護區。
傳說中的阿拉伯「獨角獸」因其與眾不同的輪廓姿態而得名，至今仍然存活下來，而且似乎確實正在蓬勃成長。
詩篇42：1-2。神啊，我的心切慕你，如鹿切慕溪水。我的心渴想神，就是永生神；我幾時得朝見神呢？ 正如這些居住在沙漠的動物渴慕水源，我們也祝福烏斯塔的人民渴望永活的神！

 Mahout Ecological Beauty and Diversity Mahout District (pop. 17,385) is located in the northeastern coastal area of Al-Wusta region, on the Indian Ocean. The district is primarily made up of small fishing villages, and is known for its beautiful coasts and diverse wildlife. The area is well-known for its rich fishing, and is home to the Barr al-Hikman Wetland Nature Reserve–a mud and salt flat that is home to nearly half a million migratory birds in winter. This area also has the largest coral reefs in Oman, and a diverse population of fish, whales, turtles, and other marine life. The area is growing in its ecotourism, and sea-diving and kite-surfing are popular sports here. Let the earth join in with this parade of praise! You mighty creatures of the ocean’s depths, echo in exaltation! Praise him, all beasts and birds, mice and men, kings, queens, princes, and princesses, young men and maidens, children and babes, old and young alike, everyone everywhere!

 Al-Wusta Fishing Livelihood from the Sea Al Wusta region is the largest producer of ‘artisanal fishing’ (using traditional, local, small-scale methods), which is the vast majority of the fishing in Oman. Fishing is one of the most ancient and important sectors of Oman's economy, with deep cultural and social significance. Before oil was discovered in the 1960s, 80% of the population lived from agriculture and fishing. Types of fish caught include tuna, king mackerel, sailfish, anchovies, sardines, herring, barracuda, and grouper. In Mahout district, approximately 400 Bedouin women practice an ancient trade of spear-fishing in the shallow tidal waters, skillfully hunting rays, octopuses, and cuttlefish, as well as collecting oysters and clams. The women sing as they hunt, ancient ballads passed down through the generations. While walking by the Sea of Galilee, He saw two brothers, Simon (who is called Peter) and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen. And He said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.” Immediately they left their nets and followed Him. (Luke 5:18-20) Today, let us pray for men and women in Oman to respond to the call of Lord, swiftly and with total abandon! May many choose to follow Jesus, and become fishers of men! Worship with us!: Fishers of Men by Newsboys. May the people of Al-Wusta be bold and fearless Fishers of Men!

海上生計
烏斯塔行政區是最大的「工匠技法捕魚」生產地（使用傳統的、當地的、小規模的捕撈方式），這是阿曼漁業的絕大多數模式。漁業是阿曼最古老、最重要的經濟領域之一，具有深厚的文化和社會意義。在20世紀60年代發現石油之前，80%的人口以農業和漁業為生。捕獲的魚類包括金槍魚、鯖魚、旗魚、鳳尾魚、沙丁魚、鯡魚、梭魚和石斑魚。
在馬烏區，大約400名貝都因婦女在淺潮汐水域從事古老的魚叉捕魚貿易，技藝嫺熟地捕獵鰩魚、章魚和墨魚，並採集牡蠣和蛤蜊。婦女們一邊獵取收穫一邊唱著古老的歌謠，代代相傳。
耶穌在加利利海邊行走，看見弟兄二人，就是那稱呼彼得的西門和他兄弟安得烈，在海裡撒網。他們本是打魚的。耶穌對他們說：「來跟從我！我要叫你們得人如得魚一樣。」他 們就立刻捨了網，跟從了他。（馬太福音4：18-20）
今天，讓我們禱告阿曼的眾多男女能夠放下一切，即刻響應主的呼召！願許多人選擇跟隨耶穌，成為得人的漁夫！

 Duqm Rock Gardens and Industrial Ports Duqm (Arabic: ٱلدُّقْم) is a town (pop. 12,805) and seat of the Duqm district (pop. 19,221) on the central coast of Al-Wusta region. The name 'Duqm' is derived from the original Arabic word 'al-Adqam' which means ‘a person who has lost his front teeth,’ as the port area looked to be caught between two ‘jaws’ of mountains that surround the town. Duqm was a small fishing settlement of the Janubah tribe when a party of soldiers and geologists landed in 1954 to begin the modern oil exploration of central Oman. Eventually the tribes of the area were relocated to a new settlement built by the government, and today Duqm is an industrial and logistics hub. Still under construction, the Duqm Special Economic Zone has investments of up to $15 billion and is projected to be one of the largest developments of its kind in the Middle East and North Africa. Outside of the port area, Duqm is known for its pristine beaches, as well as a unique ‘rock garden’ of limestone and sandstone rock formations–a geologist’s delight! "Truly He is my rock and my salvation; He is my fortress, I will never be shaken." (Psalm 62:2) We bless the people of Duqm to know the Living God as their Rock and Salvation! Pray for the Town and District of Duqm:

岩石花園和工業港口
杜格姆（https://goo.gl/maps/mJeKH7duHTG1EVt27）（阿拉伯語：ٱلدُّقْم）是位於烏斯塔行政區中部海岸的杜格姆區（人口1萬9221）的一個城鎮（人口1萬2805中心地帶。「Duqm」（杜格姆）這個名字最初源自阿拉伯語單詞「al-Adqam」，意思是「一個失去了門牙的人」，因為有兩個山脈圍繞著城鎮，而港口地區看起來像被夾在兩「顎」之間。
曾經杜格姆是賈努巴部落的一個小型捕魚聚居地，1954年，一群士兵和地質學家登陸杜格姆，開始了現代的阿曼中部的石油勘探。最終，該地區的部落搬遷到政府建造的新聚居地，如今杜格姆已成為工業和物流樞紐。杜格姆經濟特區仍在建設中，已有投資額高達150億美元，預計將成為中東和北非同類開發專案中規模最大的開發專案之一。
在港口區之外，杜格姆以其原生態的海灘以及獨特的石灰岩和砂岩岩層組成的「岩石花園」而聞名，這是地質學家的最愛！
「惟獨他是我的磐石，我的拯救，他是我的高台，我必不很動搖。」（詩篇62：2）我們祝 福杜格姆人民認識永生神是他們的磐石和拯救！

 Holy Spirit Move in Al Wusta! Today, let us pray for the release of the Holy Spirit over Al-Wusta. 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 this, so that people in Al-Wusta will call on the name of the Lord and be saved!

在烏斯塔動工！
今天，讓我們禱告聖靈在烏斯塔遍地遊走運行。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。』」
我們想看到聖靈吹過烏斯塔，好叫烏斯塔的人呼求主的 名而得救！

 SEZAD Jesus at the Center As mentioned previously, Al-Wusta means "the center, central" in Arabic. So let us bless Al-Wusta with the following truth from God's Word. "The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For in Him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through Him and for Him. He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. And He is the head of the body, the church; He is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything He might have the supremacy. For God was pleased to have all His fullness dwell in Him, and through Him to reconcile to Himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through His blood, shed on the cross." (Colossians 1:15-20) We bless the peoples of Al-Wusta to know the centrality and supremacy of Jesus! We bless them to be reconciled to the Father by the sacrifice of the Son! May they be at peace with God, through the shed blood of Jesus! Worship with us!: Jesus at the Center of It All by Life Worship. Jesus, everything revolves around You!

耶穌是中心
如前所述，烏斯塔在阿拉伯語中的意思是「中心、中央」。因此，讓我們用神的話語中的以下真理來祝福烏斯塔。
「愛子是那不能看見之神的像，是首生的，在一切被造的以先。因為萬有都是靠祂造的，無論是天上的、地上的、能看見的、不能看見的，或是有位的、主治的、執政的、掌權的，一概都是藉著祂造的，又是為祂造的。祂在萬有之先，萬有也靠祂而立。祂也是教會全體之首，祂是元始，是從死裡首先復生的，使祂可以在凡事上居首位。因為父喜歡叫一切的豐盛在祂裡面居住。既然藉著祂在十字架上所流的血成就了和平，便藉著祂叫萬有，無論是地上的、天上的，都與自己和好了。」（歌羅西書1：15-20）
我們祝福烏斯塔人民認識耶穌的中心地位和至高無上！我們祝福他們通過聖子的獻祭與聖父和解！願他們藉著耶穌所流的寶血與神和好！

These tidal lagoons have high salinity and concentrations of beta-carotene, which combined with certain forms of algae and harmless bacteria turn the water varying shades of pink.

 Al-Wusta Seekers Come to the Water We know that the Father is actively at work in Oman, to begin drawing people to His Son, Jesus. Researchers estimate that approximately 2.5% of any given population are open for religious change. So in Al-Wusta region, that means approximately 1,309 people are potentially open! ‘Broad sowing’ initiatives 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 Al-Wusta region, and the social media efforts to reach them.

我們知道天父正在阿曼積極動工，開始吸引人們歸向祂的兒子耶穌。調查人員估計，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，在烏斯塔行政區，這意味著大約有1,309人可能有開放心態！
由於阿曼法律禁止勸誘改變信仰宗教，「廣泛撒種」計畫在阿曼面臨挑戰。但是，社交媒體活動開始與慕道友建立聯繫，並開始取得成果。今天，讓我們為烏斯塔行政區的慕道友禱告，以及為社交媒體為接觸他們所做的努力禱告。

 Al-Wusta Salt Flats Salty Salt The Shana coastland in Al Wusta region is known for its salt flats–natural lakes where the salt water has collected and evaporated, leaving behind layers of crystallized salt. Workers collect the natural salt by hand and put into bags for sale. The area of the salt lake is about 3 square km (1.16 square miles), and about 50 bags (500 kg/1100 lbs) are produced daily. “Your lives are like salt among the people. But if you, like salt, become bland, how can your ‘saltiness’ be restored? Flavorless salt is good for nothing and will be thrown out and trampled on by others.” (Matthew 5:13) Let’s pray for Omani believers today, that they would ‘salty salt’, full of flavor and stirring up a hunger in those they meet!

有鹹味道的鹽
烏斯塔行政區的沙納海岸以其鹽灘而聞名，鹽灘是天然湖泊，鹽水在這裡聚集並蒸發，留下一層層結晶鹽。工人們手工收集天然鹽，裝袋出售。鹽湖面積約有3平方公里（1.16平方英里），每天生產約50袋（500公斤/1100磅）鹽。
「你們是世上的鹽。鹽若失了味，怎能叫它再鹹呢？以後無用，不過丟在外面，被人踐踏了。」（馬太福音5：13）
今天讓我們為阿曼信徒禱告，願他們成為「有鹹味道的鹽」，可以發揮價值，並在他們遇到的人中激起渴慕的心！

 Rub' Al-Khali The Empty Quarter Desert The Rub' al Khali (Arabic: ٱلرُّبْع ٱلْخَالِي), which translates as the "Empty Quarter", is the world’s largest continuous sand desert encompassing most of the southern third of the Arabian Peninsula. The desert covers some 650,000 square kms (250,000 square miles) including parts of Saudi Arabia, Oman (including the western part of Al-Wusta region), the United Arab Emirates, and Yemen. Sand dunes get up to 250 meters (820 ft) high, and are interspersed with gravel and gypsum plains and occasional salt flats. There is evidence of ancient lake beds that once had a variety of flora and fauna, including fossils of hippopotamus, water buffalo, and long-horned cattle. The lakes also contained small snails and freshwater clams. There is also evidence of human activity 2000-3000 years ago, including chipped flint tools, but no actual human remains have been found. It also seems that ancient frankincense trade routes along the edges of the desert are no longer passable, due to increased desertification of the region. The earth will be completely empty. The wealth will all be taken, because the Lord has commanded it. The earth will dry up and die; the world will grow weak and die; the great leaders in this land will become weak. The people of the earth have ruined it, because they do not follow God's teachings or obey God's laws or keep their agreement with God that was to last forever. (Isaiah 24:3-5) Today, let us pray for the people of Oman to return to the true and living God, to follow His teaching and obey His laws, and to come back into covenant relationship with Him! May the Empty Quarter be restored to life! Worship with us!: Empty by Revelation Worship. May the people of Oman empty themselves before Him!

空域沙漠
魯卜哈利沙漠（https://goo.gl/maps/G9CyoB61VrmgyYHB7）（阿拉伯語：ٱلرُّبْع ٱلْخَالِي），翻譯過來就是「空白之地」【空域】，是世界上最大的延續的沙海，包含了阿拉伯半島南部三分之一的大部分地區。沙漠面積覆蓋約65萬平方公里（25萬平方英里），包括沙特阿拉伯、阿曼（包括烏斯塔行政區西部）、阿聯酋和也門的部分地區。沙丘高達250米（820英尺），散佈著礫石和石膏平原，偶爾還有鹽灘。
有證據表明，古代湖泊的河床曾經有多種植物 和動物群落，包括河馬、水牛和長角牛的化石。湖泊中還含有小蝸牛和淡水蛤蜊。還有2000-3000年前人類活動的跡象，包括有缺口的燧石工具，但尚未發現真正的人類遺骸。由於該行政區沙漠化加劇，沿著沙漠邊緣的古老乳香貿易路線似乎已不再通行。
地必全然空虛，盡都荒涼。因為這話是耶和華說的。地上悲哀衰殘，世界敗落衰殘，地上居高位的人也敗落了。地被其上的居民污穢，因為他們犯了律法，廢了律例，背了永約。（以賽亞書24：3-5）
今天，讓我們禱告阿曼人民回歸又真又活的神，遵循祂的教導，遵守祂的律法，並重新與祂建立盟約關係！願空白之地再次煥發生機！

 Movements Rapid Multiplication of Disciples and Churches in Al-Wusta We want to see the fullness of the Kingdom of God coming into every part of Al-Wusta 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 [Al-Wusta] quickly grew and increased by the day.” Let’s pray for the church that will form in Al-Wusta:

烏斯塔門徒和教會的快速倍增
我們想要看到神的國度充滿烏斯塔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】；【烏斯塔的】門徒數目增加得很多【迅速增長，與日俱增】。」

Let us pray for the mothers of Oman with this blessing: Thank You for Your endless provisions of grace and mercy. We come to You today to lift up every woman in Oman who answers to the name of “mom.” We ask that You supply each one with the strength they need for those difficult days. Give them wisdom to know when to encourage and when to correct their children. Supply them with an extra dose of patience. Remind them that children are a heritage and a reward from You (Psalm 127:3), and shower them with special moments they can cherish. Lord, we also ask that You draw them close to You daily. Remind them of their worth in Your eyes - that they, too, are cherished children of a loving Father. We pray for contentment in this very special calling. May every mom realize that this is a mission from You, one that brings truly great rewards in the end. Amen. Worship with us!: God of Our Mothers and Fathers by Vineyard Worship.

感謝你無盡的恩典和憐憫預備。今天我們來到你身邊，是為了高舉每一位回應「媽媽」之名的阿曼女性。我們請求你為每個人提供她們度過那些困難日子所需的力量。給她們智慧，讓她們知道何時鼓勵孩子，何時糾正孩子。給她們額外的耐心。提醒她們，孩子是來自你的產業和獎賞（詩篇127：3），並慷慨給予她們可以珍惜的特殊時刻。主啊，我們也請求你每天吸引她們親近你。提醒她們在你眼中她們的價值-她們也是那位慈愛天父所珍視的孩子。我們禱告她們在這個非常特殊的呼召中感到滿足。願每一位媽媽都意識到這是一項來自你的使命，最終會帶來真正豐厚的回報。阿們。

 Ripe Fields Praying for the Harvest in Al-Wusta 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 [Al-Wusta] fields are ripe. It’s harvest time! (John 4:35–MSG) There has been little intentional Gospel witness living in Al-Wusta. Several years ago there were 2 intentional workers living there, but they have since moved. So let us pray earnestly to the Lord of the Harvest to send forth new Laborers there! Pray for many open doors for people to come, especially with the new economic development in Duqm. And pray for many men and women of peace in this isolated region to welcome believers into their communities.

「你們豈不說『到收割的時候還有四個月』嗎？我告訴你們：舉目向田觀看，莊稼已經熟了，可以收割了。」（約翰福音4：35）
在烏斯塔行政區很少有刻意傳福音的見證人。幾年前，這裡住著兩個有此意圖的工人，但後來他們搬走了。所以，讓我們懇切地向收割之主禱告，求他差派新的工人到那裡去！求主為更多的人敞開大門，特別是隨著杜格姆有新的經濟發展。為這個孤立行政區的許多有平安的男女禱告，願他們歡迎信徒進入他們的社區。

 Ramadan Day 1 Pray for the Word to Guide Our Prayers Today is the first day of Ramadan, the Islamic month of fasting, determined by the sighting of the new moon. Fasting during the month of Ramadan is one of the five pillars of Islam, and is required of all Muslims of age during the daylight hours for 30 days. It is considered the holiest of months, a time set apart to focus on God. For the next 30 days, we will pray through the book of Colossians, adapted from a Ramadan prayer guide by PTAP (Praying Through the Arabian Peninsula). Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, to the saints and faithful brothers in Christ at Colossae: Grace to you and peace from God our Father. (Col 1:1-2) The Apostle Paul wrote Colossians to the church in Colossae around 60 AD. Letters at that time usually began with a greeting from the author to the recipient. Here, Paul introduces himself as an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God. He does not come on his own authority but on the authority of God Himself in Christ. Prayer: O God our Father, we thank you that you are our Heavenly Father who gives us grace and peace through Christ Jesus your Son. Thank you that you have given Him all authority in heaven and on earth (Matthew 28:18). Therefore, we pray in His name on this first day of Ramadan, that the teaching of the apostles as found in Scripture would be the foundation of our prayers and also the foundation of the local church in Oman. Grant us wisdom, knowledge, and insight in order to understand Colossians and to pray it faithfully on behalf of Oman and the entire Muslim world. O Holy Spirit, would you illumine our minds and guide us into all truth (John 16:13-15). Amen. Worship with us!: I Believe (The Creed) by Hillsong. This Ramadan, may God open the eyes of Omanis to the truth of the Scriptures!

禱告神的話語來引導我們的禱告
齋月是伊斯蘭禁食的月份，由新月的出現決定。齋月是伊斯蘭的五大支柱之一，所有成年穆斯林都必須在白天禁食30天。它被認為是最神聖的月份，是專門用來專注於神（真主）的時間。
在接下來的30天裡，我們將通過歌羅西書來禱告，改編自PTAP（為阿拉伯半島禱告）出品的齋月禱告指南（https://www.pray-ap.info/）。
奉神旨意，作基督耶穌使徒的保羅和兄弟提摩太，寫信給歌羅西的聖徒，在基督裡有忠心的弟兄。願恩惠、平安從神我們的父歸與你們。（歌羅西書1：1-2）
使徒保羅在公元60年左右給歌羅西教會寫了歌羅西書。當時的信件通常以作者對收件人的問候開始。在這裡，保羅介紹自己是奉神的旨意成為基督耶穌的使徒。他不是憑著自己的權柄而來，而是憑著神在基督裡的權柄而來。
禱告：我們的父神啊，我們感謝你，你是我們的天父，通過你的兒子基督耶穌賜給我們恩典與平安。感謝你已將天上地下所有的權柄賜給他（馬太福音28：18）。因此，我們在齋月的第一天奉祂的名禱告，願聖經中使徒的教導成為我們禱告的基礎，也是阿曼當地教會的基礎。請賜予我們智慧、知識和看見，以便我們能夠理解歌羅西書，並為了阿曼和整個穆斯林世界忠實地代禱。聖靈啊，求你照亮我們的心意，引導我們明白一切的真理（約翰福音16：13-15）。阿們。
與我們一同敬拜吧！《我相信（使徒信經）》（https://youtu.be/nNiYUPsHgls），新頌敬拜團。這個齋月，願神打開阿 曼人的眼睛，讓他們認識聖經的真理！

 Ramadan Day 2 Pray for a Love for the Trinity We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you, since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love that you have for all the saints... (Col. 1:3-4) Muslims deny the Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) and accuse Christians of the grave sin of “shirk”, namely, assigning idolatrous partners to Allah. This violates the Islamic doctrine of “tawheed” which proclaims the indivisible oneness of Allah. Many Muslims believe that Christians worship three gods, that the Father had relations with Mary and Jesus was thus born. They also believe that the Holy Spirit is just an angel. Prayer: O Blessed Trinity, we praise You that You are a precious unity in diversity. We thank You Father for giving us Your Son Jesus as the Lamb of God who has taken away the sins of the world. And we thank You Holy Spirit for applying this salvation to our lives through faith. May Omanis acknowledge and worship You as One God - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Break down all barriers the Omanis have against You so that they will come to love the glory, brilliance, power, and love found within Yourself. Blessed are You forever and ever! Amen.

為三位一體的愛禱告
我們感謝神、我們主耶穌基督的父，常常為 你們禱告，因聽見你們在基督耶穌裡的信心，並向眾聖徒的愛心…（歌羅西書1：3-4）
穆斯林否認三位一體（聖父、聖子、聖靈），並指責基督徒犯有「以物配主」的嚴重罪行，也就是說，將偶像敬拜的同伴配給真主。這違反了伊斯蘭的「認主獨一」教義，該教義宣稱真主有不可分割的統一性。許多穆斯林相信基督徒敬拜三位神，聖父與馬利亞有關係，耶穌因此誕生。他們還相信聖靈只是一位天使。
禱告：神聖三位一體啊，我們讚美你，你是寶貴的多元一體。我們感謝天父賜給我們你的兒子耶穌，作為神的羔羊，除去了世人的罪孽。我們感謝你聖靈，通過信心將這種救恩應用到我們的生命中。願阿曼人承認並敬拜你是獨一的神-聖父、聖子和聖靈。打破阿曼人對你認識中的一切障礙，這樣他們就會愛上你內在的榮耀、光輝、力量和愛。讚美永遠歸給你！阿們。
與我們一同敬拜吧！《聖哉，聖哉，聖哉》（https://youtu.be/r5IuomVYBR8），謝恩和謝恩。這 個齋月，願神打開阿曼人的眼睛，讓他們認識三位一體的真理！

 Ramadan Day 3 Pray for the Different People Groups in Oman ...because of the hope laid up for you in heaven. Of this you have heard before in the word of the truth, the gospel, which has come to you, as indeed in the whole world it is bearing fruit and growing - as it also does among you, since the day you heard it and understood the grace of God in truth, just as you learned it from Epaphras our beloved fellow servant. He is a faithful minister of Christ on your behalf and has made known to us your love in the Spirit. (Col. 1:3-4) Praise God for the local believers in Oman! Although the numbers are small, the church is bearing fruit and growing as God has promised. The Arab people are the main indigenous group in Oman and in the Arabian Peninsula, the original Arab Bedouins of the desert. Mohammad, the founder of Islam, was one of them. However, there are minority people groups in Oman as well. Here is a sample:
Prayer: O Lord of the nations, we thank you for your promise that all nations will be gathered to worship you as one church! Thank you for the hope we have laid up for us in heaven as brothers and sisters in one family. We pray that the word of truth, the gospel, would go to all the people groups of Oman. May it transform lives among the Zanzibari Omanis, the Baluchi, the Mahri, the Jebeli, and the Shuhooh. We also ask for Ephraphas’s to come out of these people groups to reach their own people, to be faithful ministers of Christ. May your church in Oman among these peoples bear much fruit and grow as it is in the whole world. Amen. Worship with us!: Jesus Hope of the Nations by Kathryn Scott.

為阿曼的不同人群禱告
…是為那給你們存在天上的盼望；這盼望就是你們從前在福音真理的道上所聽見的。這福音傳到你們那裡，也傳到普天之下，並且結果、增長，如同在你們中間，自從你們聽見福音，真知道神恩惠的日子一樣。正如你們從我們所親愛、一同作僕人的以巴弗所學的。他為我們作了基督忠心的執事。（歌羅西書1：5-7）
為阿曼當地的信徒讚美神！雖然人數不多，但教會正如神所應許的那樣，正在結果子、不斷成長。阿拉伯人是阿曼和阿拉伯半島的主要本土群體，是沙漠中最初的阿拉伯貝都因人。伊斯蘭創始人穆罕默德就是其中之一。然而，阿曼也有少數民族群體。這裡抽取一些例子：
禱告：萬民之主啊，我們感謝你的應許，萬民將聚集在一起敬拜你，成為一個教會！感謝你賜給我們盼望，我們可以作為天堂裡一個家庭的弟兄姊妹。我們禱告真理的話語-福音，會傳達給阿曼所有民族群體。願福音轉變桑給巴阿曼人、俾路支人、邁赫里人、傑貝利人和舒胡人的生命。我們也祈求，有以巴弗從這些民族中走出來，去接觸他們自己的民族，成為基督的忠實傳道人。願你在阿曼這些民族中的教會結出豐碩的果實，並像全世界一樣成長。阿們。
與我們一同敬拜吧！《萬民盼望耶穌》（https://youtu.be/MsFIGSOTsVM），凱薩琳·斯科特。這個齋月，願阿曼的「萬民」接受耶穌的啟示作為他們的盼望！

 Ramadan Day 4 A Prayer for Omani Believers And so, from the day we heard, we have not ceased to pray for you, asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, so as to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to Him, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God. May you be strengthened with all power, according to His glorious might, for all endurance and patience with joy, giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in light. (Col 1:9-12) Col 1:9-12 is a wonderful and powerful prayer by Paul. Simply pray the same prayer for all the local believers in Oman. Change the pronoun from “you” to “they/them”. Or if you know of a local believer, say his or her name. Pray this prayer for our brothers and sisters and rest assured that the Lord will bless the Omani church out of His knowledge, wisdom, understanding, joy, patience, and glorious might. Worship with us!: Strength of My Life by Vertical Worship. This Ramadan, may Omani believers be strengthened by God’s glorious might!

為阿曼信徒禱告
因此，我們自從聽見的日子，也就為你們不住地禱告祈求，願你們在一切屬靈的智慧悟性上，滿心知道神的旨意，好叫你們行事為人對得起主，凡事蒙祂喜悅，在一切善事上結果子，漸漸地多知道神，照祂榮耀的權能，得以在各樣的力上加力，好叫你們凡事歡歡喜喜地忍耐寬容，又感謝父，叫我們能與眾聖徒在光明中同得基業。（歌羅西書1：9-12）
歌羅西書1：9-12是保羅的一段奇妙而有力的禱告。只要為阿曼所有當地信徒做同樣的禱告即可。將代詞從「你們」改為「他們」。或者，如果你認識當地信徒，請說出他或她的名字。為我們的弟兄姊妹禱告，請放心，主會以祂的知識、智慧、理解、喜樂、耐心和榮耀的能力賜福阿曼教會。

 Ramadan Day 5 Praise Jesus for His Supremacy and Preeminence Col 1:13 – 20 He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins. He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. For by Him, all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities – all things were created through Him and for Him. And He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. And He is the head of the body, the church. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in everything He might be preeminent. For in Him all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell, and through Him to reconcile to Himself all things, whether on earth or in heaven, making peace by the blood of His cross. (Col 1:13 – 20) During Paul’s time, various theories about Jesus were circulating and being promoted. For instance, heresies that mixed astrology and Judaism produced a doctrine claiming that Jesus was merely an angelic being. Very concerned, Paul wrote this letter to combat these false teachings. Muslims today believe in Jesus only a human being. They believe that He is only a prophet of Allah who received the Injil (the gospels) from Allah. Although He did miracles and is even called the “Word of God” in the Qur’an, Muslims deny His deity, incarnation, atonement, and resurrection. In contrast, Colossians praises Jesus as the supreme God, the Creator, the Savior, the One preeminent over all things! Prayer: O Beloved Son of God, we praise You now for who You are, as God Himself, the very image of the invisible God who has delivered us from the domain of darkness and into Your kingdom of light! You created all things and rule over all things. We lift up the Muslims of Oman to You. Please open their eyes so that they can see Your kingdom, redemption, fullness, and forgiveness. Grant them repentance leading to a knowledge of the truth and free them from the snare of the devil (2 Timothy 2:25,26) so that they can bow down before You and worship You as the one who is the very fullness of God. Reconcile them to Yourself. Make peace with them by the blood of Your cross. Amen. Worship with us!: All is For Your Glory by Kalley Heiligenthal. Jesus, You have the Preeminence in Oman!

讚美耶穌的至高無上和卓越
祂救了我們脫離黑暗的權勢，把我們遷到他愛子的國裡，我們在愛子裡得蒙救贖，罪過得以赦免。愛子是那不能看見之神的像，是首生的，在一切被造的以先。因為萬有都是靠祂造的，無論是天上的、地上的、能看見的、不能看見的，或是有位的、主治的、執政的、掌權的，一概都是藉著祂造的，又是為祂造的。祂在萬有之先，萬有也靠祂而立。祂也是教會全體之首，祂是元始，是從死裡首先復生的，使祂可以在凡事上居首位。因為父喜歡叫一切的豐盛在祂裡面居住。既然藉著祂在十字架上所流的血成就了和平，便藉著祂叫萬有，無論是地上的、天上的，都與自己和好了。（歌羅西書1：13-20）
在保羅時代，關於耶穌的各種觀點正在流傳和推廣。例如，混合占星學和猶太教的異端產生了一種說法，聲稱耶穌只是一個天使般的存在。保羅急切關心，寫了這封信來反對這些錯誤的教導。今天的穆斯林只相信耶穌是一個人。他們相信祂只是真主的一位先知，從真主那裡接受了引支勒（福音書）。盡管祂施行神蹟，甚至在古蘭經中被稱為「真主的一句話」，但穆斯林否認祂的神性、道成肉身、贖罪和復活。相比之下，歌羅西書讚美耶穌是至高無上的神、造物主、救主、超越萬有的那一位！
禱告：親愛的神子啊，我們現在讚美你，因為你就是神本身，是不可見的神的形象，你把我們從黑暗的領域拯救出來，進入你光明的國度！你創造了萬有，也主宰著萬有。我們將阿曼的穆斯林舉向你。請打開他們的眼睛，讓他們看到你的國度、救贖、完全和饒恕。賜給他們悔改的心，使他們認識真理，將他們從魔鬼的網羅中釋放出來（提摩太後書2：25，26），這樣他們就可以在你面前俯伏敬拜，敬拜你，因為你就是表明神的完全的那一位。讓他們與你自己和解。藉著你在十字架上所流的血與他們和好。阿們。
與我們一同敬拜吧！《一切都是為了你的榮耀》（https://youtu.be/kf5kGXZS8z4），卡蕾·海利根塔爾。耶穌，你在阿曼擁有卓越的地位！

 Ramadan Day 6 Pray for the Leaders of Oman And you, who once were alienated and hostile in mind, doing evil deeds, He has now reconciled in His body of flesh by His death, in order to present you holy and blameless and above reproach before Him, if indeed you continue in the faith, stable and steadfast, not shifting from the hope of the gospel that you heard, which has been proclaimed in all creation under heaven, and of which I, Paul, became a minister. (Col 1:21-23) First of all then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way. This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.” (1 Timothy 2:1-4) The Apostle Paul urges God’s people to pray for leaders of nations here in 1 Timothy. Therefore, let’s pray for the leaders of Oman. Although Sultan Haitham bin Tariq Al Busaidi is the monarch and head of state of Oman, the entire government is more in the public eye. Oman is keen to point out its “religious freedom”. Pray that both the Sultan and the government will be committed to ensuring that this applies to the entire country. Prayer: Almighty God, You are our ultimate leader and guide. We thank You that a king’s heart is in Your hand and You turn it wherever you will (Proverbs 21:1). Please turn the heart of Sultan Haitham bin Tariq Al Busaidi and the Omani government towards You so that they will no longer be alienated and hostile in mind towards the gospel. Lord, we thank You that You desire Sultans and Sheikhs and Kings to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth. Would You save Sultan Haitham! Would You reconcile him to Yourself so that he would be presented to You as holy and blameless in Christ alone. Would You bring justice, righteousness, and peace to Oman through its leaders. Cause them to apply true religious freedom for the entire country, for all of its citizens and expat workers. Cause your gospel to go forth and be proclaimed to all in Oman. Amen.

為阿曼領導人禱告
你們從前與神隔絕，因著惡行，心裡與祂為敵。但如今祂藉著基督的肉身受死，叫你們與自己和好，都成了聖潔，沒有瑕疵，無可責備，把你們引到自己面前。只要你們在所信的道上恆心，根基穩固，堅定不移，不至被引動失去福音的盼望，這福音就是你們所聽過的，也是傳與普天下萬人聽的。我保羅也作了這福音的執事。（歌羅西書1：21-23）
我勸你第一要為萬人懇求、禱告、代求、祝謝，為君王和一切在位的，也該如此，使我們可以敬虔、端正、平安無事地度日。這是好的，在神我們救主面前可蒙悅納。他願意萬人得救，明白真道。（提摩太前書2：1-4）
使徒保羅在提摩太前書中敦促神的子民為各國領袖禱告。因此，讓我們為阿曼領導人禱告。雖然蘇丹海瑟姆·本·塔里克·布賽迪是阿曼的君主和國家元首，但整個政府更多地處於公眾視野中。阿曼熱衷於彰顯其「宗教自由」。禱告蘇丹和政府都致力於確保這適用於整個國家。
禱告：全能的神，你是我們最終的領袖和嚮導。我們感謝你，君王的心在你手中，你可以將它轉向你想要的地方（箴言21：1）。請將蘇丹海瑟姆·本·塔里克·布賽迪和阿曼政府的心轉向你，使他們在心中不再對福音感到疏遠和敵視。主啊，我們感謝你，因為你渴望蘇丹、酋長和國王得到拯救並認識真理。願你拯救蘇丹海瑟姆，願你使他與你和好，這樣他就可以單單在基督裡成為聖潔、無可指摘的人獻給你。願你通過阿曼領導人為阿曼帶來正義、公義與和平，使他們將真正的宗教自由應用於整個國家、所有公民和外籍工人。使你的福音傳播出去，向阿曼所有人宣揚。阿們。
與我們一同敬拜吧！《活潑盼望》（https://youtu.be/9f2FXxDVO6w），菲爾·威克姆。願蘇丹認識福音的活潑希望！

 Ramadan Day 7 Pray for the Persecuted Church Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I am filling up what is lacking in Christ’s afflictions for the sake of His body, that is, the church, of which I became a minister according to the stewardship from God that was given to me for you, to make the word of God fully known, the mystery hidden for ages and generations but now revealed to His saints. (Col. 1:24-26) Although death is the exception and not the rule, the cost of turning away from Islam to Christ is enormous. Many Omani believers have lost families, friends, communities, jobs, reputations, and freedom. Some in the Arabian Peninsula have been imprisoned and killed in honor killings. Jesus even predicted this (Matthew 10:21-22). Since the Arabian Peninsula is the very heartland of Islam, persecution is a reality for Omani believers. Prayer: O God of all comfort, we pray for our dear brothers and sisters who are currently being persecuted in Oman because of their faith in You. Comfort them in all their afflictions. May they abundantly share in Your comfort as they share in Your sufferings (2 Corinthians 1:3-7). O Father of mercies, have mercy upon them and cause them to rejoice in their sufferings and fill up what is lacking in Christ’s afflictions for the sake of the church in Oman. And we pray specifically for the families who are persecuting believers, that You would convict them of their sins, that they would repent, and believe in the gospel (Mark 1:15). Bring them into Your kingdom. Give them dreams and visions of Yourself. Do not let them go until they surrender their lives to You. Make the word of God fully known to them, O Lord. They have done great evil, but You are a God of forgiveness. Forgive them and reconcile them to Yourself through Christ your Son. Amen. Worship with us!: Son of Suffering by Matt Redman.

為受逼迫的教會禱告
現在我為你們受苦，倒覺歡樂，並且為基督的身體，就是為教會，要在我肉身上補滿基督患難的缺欠。我照神為你們所賜我的職分作了教會的執事，要把神的道理傳得全備，這道理就是歷世歷代所隱藏的奧秘，但如今向他的聖徒顯明了。（歌羅西書1：24-26）
雖然死亡是例外情況而不是常規現象，但離開伊斯蘭轉向基督的代價是巨大的。許多阿曼信徒失去了家庭、朋友、社群、工作、聲譽和自由。阿拉伯半島的一些人因「榮譽謀殺」而被監禁和殺害。耶穌甚至預言了這一點（馬太福音10：21-22）。由於阿拉伯半島是伊斯蘭的中心地帶，阿曼信徒遭受逼迫是現實狀況。
禱告：賜一切安慰的神啊，我們為我們親愛的弟兄姊妹禱告，他們目前因信靠你而在阿曼遭受逼迫。安慰他們一切的苦難。願他們充分同享你的安慰，正如他們同享你的苦難一樣（哥林多後書1：3-7）。慈悲的父啊，求你憐憫他們，使他們在苦難中喜樂，並為阿曼教會的緣故，補滿在基督中遭遇患難帶來的不足。我們特別為那些逼迫信徒的家人禱告，求你使他們認識到自己的罪，使他們悔改並相信福音（馬可福 音1：15）。將他們帶入你的國度。給他們你自己的夢境和異象。在他們將生命交給你之前，不要讓他們離開。主啊，使他們完全明白神的話語。他們行了大惡，但你是饒恕的神。通過你的兒子基督饒恕他們，並使他們與你和好。阿們。

 Ramadan Day 8 Pray for University Students in Oman To them God chose to make known how great among the Gentiles are the riches of the glory of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. Him we proclaim, warning everyone and teaching everyone with all wisdom, that we may present everyone mature in Christ. For this I toil, struggling with all His energy that He powerfully works within me. (Col. 1:27-29) Young adults are often considering life’s biggest questions and are open to the gospel. Thousands of Omani young people are studying at universities and colleges. In this setting, disciples of Jesus can participate in campus life as professors, staff, and students. As God opens these doors, local young adults in Oman have unprecedented opportunities to develop friendships with Christians and hear the good news for the first time. Prayer: Father, thank you for opening doors for Christian professors and students to come to universities in Oman. We pray that You would help them live a holy life that causes students to ask questions. We ask that You would fill them with love for students and staff, to serve them, and speak the good news of Jesus to them so that they can present everyone mature in Christ. Please give local students ears to hear and eyes to see the riches of the glory of the gospel, Christ in us, the hope of glory! Amen. Worship with us!: Hope of Glory by New Creation Worship.

神願意叫他們知道，這奧秘在外邦人中有何等豐盛的榮耀，就是基督在你們心裡成了有榮耀的盼望。我們傳揚他，是用諸般的智慧勸戒各人、教導各人，要把各人在基督裡完完全全地引到神面前。我也為此勞苦，照著祂在我裡面運用的大能盡心竭力。（歌羅西書1：27-29）
年輕人經常考慮生活中最大的問題，並對福音持開放態度。成千上萬的阿曼年輕人正在大學和高校學習。在這種環境下，耶穌的門徒可以作為教授、教職員工和學生參與校園生活。當神打開這些大門時，阿曼當地的年輕人就有了前所未有的機會與基督徒建立友誼，並第一次聽到好消息。
禱告：天父，感謝你為基督徒教授和學生打開阿曼大學的大門。我們禱告你幫助他們過聖潔的生活，使學生們提出問題。我們禱告你讓他們充滿對學生和教職員工的愛，服侍他們，向他們傳講耶穌的好消息，使他們可以讓每個人在基督裡成熟起來。請給當地學生可以聽的耳朵，可以看的眼睛，認識到福音榮耀的豐富，在我們裡面的基督，以及榮耀的盼望！阿們。

 Ramadan Day 9 Pray for Expat Churches in Oman For I want you to know how great a struggle I have for you and for those at Laodicea and for all who have not seen me face to face, that their hearts may be encouraged, being knit together in love, to reach all the riches of full assurance of understanding and the knowledge of God’s mystery, which is Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. I say this in order that no one may delude you with plausible arguments. For though I am absent in body, yet I am with you in spirit, rejoicing to see your good order and the firmness of your faith in Christ. (Col 2:1-5) Oman has opened its doors to foreigners from all over the world to come and work. They have even given official permission for international churches to meet. These international churches are gathering in many languages, worshiping Jesus, and shining His light in Oman. These churches are full of engineers, teachers, maids, construction workers, embassy workers, and other professionals who come from around the world. Each of these believers have unique opportunities to start relationships with local co-workers and neighbors. Prayer: Father, please fill these believers with Your Holy Spirit to speak Your word with boldness (Acts 4:31). Empower them to make the most of every opportunity, speaking with wisdom to give answers to each person who asks about the hope that they have (Colossians 4:6). Protect the pastors as they shepherd these believers from all over the world and equip them to minister the gospel in Oman. Encourage them as they bear the burdens of their people. Help them to faithfully proclaim Christ, that in Him only are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. Use the churches to bring firm faith to those who don’t know you yet. Make the church a bastion of truth and good order against false and plausible arguments against You. Amen. Worship with us!: Firm Foundation by Cody Carnes.

為阿曼的外籍教會禱告
我願意你們曉得我為你們和老底嘉人，並一切沒有與我親自見面的人，是何等地盡心竭力，要叫他們的心得安慰，因愛心互相聯絡，以致豐豐足足在悟性中有充足的信心，使他們真知神的奧秘，就是基督，所積蓄的一切智慧知識，都在他裡面藏著。我說這話，免得有人用花言巧語迷惑你們。我身子雖與你們相離，心卻與你們同在，見你們循規蹈矩，信基督的心也堅固，我就歡喜了。（歌羅西書2：1-5）
阿曼向世界各地的外國人敞開大門，歡迎他們前來工作。他們甚至正式允許國際教會聚會。這些國際教會以多種語言聚集在一起，敬拜耶穌，並在阿曼閃耀他的光芒。這些教堂裡擠滿了來自世界各地的工程師、教師、女傭、建築工人、大使館工作人員和其他專業人士。這些信徒中的每一位都有獨特的機會與當地同事和鄰居建立關係。
禱告：父啊，求你用聖靈充滿這些信徒，放胆講論你的話語（使徒行傳4：31）。賦予他們力量，充分利用每一個機會，用智慧說話，回答每個詢問他們盼望因由的人（歌羅西書4：6）。保護牧師牧養來自世界各地的信徒，並裝備他們在阿曼傳 福音。當他們對他們的人民心懷負擔時，鼓勵他們。幫助他們忠實地宣揚基督，因為所有智慧和知識的寶藏只隱藏在祂裡面。利用教會給那些還不認識你的人帶來堅定的信靠。讓教會成為真理和良好秩序的堡壘，反對針對你的虛假和花言巧語的講論。阿們。
