六月份祈禱的要點 I

為阿曼祈禱的要點



Pour Out Pentecost, Part 1

Focus On Oman

This is the week between Western Pentecost (May 28) and Eastern Pentecost (June 4). Nations HOPE (House of Prayer and Evangelism) in Egypt is sponsoring the Pouring Out Pentecost Week of Prayer for the Muslim World. This week, they are focusing on several key nations in the Muslim World, and today they are highlighting Oman! Let’s join them in praying these requests from their prayer guide:

  • This year, 2023, is a year of focused prayer and fasting for Oman. We are desiring to see a true shift in the spiritual atmosphere, opening the gates for a significant move of the Kingdom of God. Please pray for true, lasting impact and effectiveness of this.

  • A new media initiative launched this year as well. Please pray the ads will connect with seekers, who then can respond and meet with disciplers in person. May many come to faith and obedience, and meet together and multiply.

  • There are small numbers of known local believers in a few places. Fear is still a major stronghold. Please pray for their strengthening, boldness, maturing, and meeting together.

  • Oman as a nation has been stable after the passing of Sultan Qaboos in 2020 (reigning 50 years) and the accession of Sultan Haitham. But it seems the nation is still trying to decide which direction it will go, whether to open up more and become more Westernized, or to close ranks and hang on to traditional conservative religion and culture. Economic pressures and limited oil reserves are also a factor in the nation’s future. Likewise, it’s neutral status and friendship with both Saudi Arabia and Iran can pose challenges and give opportunity in the various regional conflicts. The future of this nation is in the sovereign hands of the Lord of Heaven and Earth—May He move and shake and preserve as He sees best, for His glory.

  • Oman is at the crossroads of Arabia, Persia, East Africa, and South Asia. It’s people, culture and language reflect this diversity. Oman once exported Islam as it sailed the seas in trade and colonization. May this unique nation one day use its influence to spread the Gospel!

澆灌五旬節,第1部分

 

重點關注阿曼

 

這是西方五旬節(5月28日)和東方五旬節(6月4日)之間的一周。埃及的萬國盼望(組織)(禱告和傳福音之家)贊助針對穆斯林世界的澆灌五旬節(https://nationshopeprayer.wordpress.com/contact/pouring-out-pentecost/)禱告周。本周,他們將重點關注穆斯林世界的幾個關鍵國家,今天他們突出強調阿曼!讓我們按照他們的禱告指南中的這些請求和他們一起禱告:

 

2023年是為了阿曼專注禱告和禁食的一年https://ptwo.app/)。我們渴望看到屬靈氛圍的真正轉變,為神國的重大舉措打開大門。請為此禱告真正的、持久的影響和效果。

這年還推出了一項新媒體計畫。請禱告這些宣傳能與尋求者產生聯繫,然後他們可以回應並與門徒親自見面。願許多人信奉並順服主,相聚在一起並倍增。

少數地方有少數知名的本地信徒。恐懼仍然是主要營壘。請為他們的力量、勇氣、成熟和聚會禱告。

2020年蘇丹卡布斯去世(在位50年)並由蘇丹海瑟姆繼位後,阿曼作為一個國家一直保持穩定。但似乎這個國家仍在試圖決定它將走向何方,是進一步開放並變得更加西化,還是團結一致並堅持傳統的保守宗教和文化。經濟壓力和有限的石油儲量也是影響該國未來的一個因素。同樣,它的中立地位以及與沙特阿拉伯和伊朗的友好關係可能會在各種地區衝突中引起挑戰並帶來機遇。這個國家的未來掌握在天地之主至高無上的手中-願祂按照祂認為最好的方式作工、震動大地,並保守屬祂的人,以彰顯祂的榮耀。

阿曼位於阿拉伯、波斯、東非和南亞的交匯處。阿曼人民、文化和語言反映了這種多樣性。阿曼曾經在海上貿易和殖民過程中輸出伊斯蘭。願這個獨特的國家有朝一日能利用其影響力傳播福音!

Pour Out Pentecost, Part 2

Praying from the Book of Acts

Before you pray, pause to remember what God did on the day of Pentecost and think about His mighty works that we see in the Book of Acts. This is the same God we are praying to now!

Almighty God, in the name of Jesus we ask for an outpouring of Your Spirit (2:33) in Oman like the day of Pentecost. May it lead to the same life- and society-changing power we see in the Book of Acts.

May Your Spirit empower believers living in Oman to be Your witnesses (1:8) and to declare the gospel (5:42) with boldness (4:31, 4:33, 28:31); even in the face of opposition and persecution (4:8, 5:29, 6:10, 20:24).

We ask that when the good news about Jesus Christ is proclaimed that You would bring conviction and understanding of Your salvation that leads to repentance. (2:37, 2:38, 4:4)

We pray that along with the declaration of the gospel there would also be signs, wonders, and healings ( 2:43, 4:31, 5:12 6:8, 14:10. 28: 5, 3:7, 5:16, 28:8) that point to the authority and saving power of Christ.

May You send dreams and visions to people that glorify You and open people to your message of salvation. (2:17, 10:3, 16:10, 18:9)

There is no name more powerful than Yours, and so we ask in Your name that people oppressed by demonic influence would be delivered (8:7, 16:18, 19:19).

Now, to the God who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, may Your name be glorified in Oman like never before and through all generations forever and ever.

In the wonderful name of Jesus we pray. Amen.

澆灌五旬節,第2部分

 

出自使徒行傳的禱告

 

在你禱告之前,停下來回憶一下神在五旬節那天所做的事,想想我們在使徒行傳中看到的祂的偉大作為。現在聽我們禱告的就是同一位神!

 

全能的神,奉耶穌的名,我們祈求你的聖靈(使徒行傳2:33)像五旬節那樣在阿曼澆灌而下。願這樣的澆灌帶來我們在使徒行傳中看到的改變生命和社會的力量。

 

願你的靈賦予居住在阿曼的信徒力量,使他們能夠成為你的見證人(使徒行傳1:8)並勇敢地(使徒行傳4:31,4:33,28:31)宣揚福音(使徒行傳5:42);即使面對反對和逼迫(使徒行傳4:8,5:29,6:10,20:24)。

 

我們祈求,當耶穌基督的好消息被宣揚時,你會使人信服並理解你的通向悔改的救恩(使徒行傳2:37,2:38,4:4)。

 

我們禱告,隨著福音的宣揚,也會有神蹟、奇事和醫治(使徒行傳2:43,4:31,5:12,6:8,14:10,28:5,3:7,5:16,28:8),指明基督的權柄和拯救力量。

 

願你將夢境和異象賜給人們,可以榮耀你,並讓人們接受你的救恩信息(使徒行傳2:17,10:3,16:10,18:9)。

 

沒有其他的名比你的名更有力量,因此我們奉你的名祈求,讓那些受魔鬼影響所壓迫的人們得到解救(使徒行傳8:7,16:18,19:19)。

 

神能夠做遠遠超出我們所求所想的事情,願你的名在阿曼得到前所未有的榮耀,世世代代,永永遠遠。

 

奉耶穌的奇妙聖名禱告,阿們。

Pour Out Pentecost, Part 3

Praying from the Book of Acts

Before you pray, pause to remember what God did on the day of Pentecost and think about His mighty works we see in the Book of Acts. This is the same God we are praying to now!

Almighty God, in the name of Jesus we again ask for an outpouring of Your Spirit (2:33) in Oman like the day of Pentecost. May it lead to the same life- and society- changing power we see in the Book of Acts.

In those days You added to Your church daily those who were being saved, and our desire is that this would become the reality in Oman for the glory of Your name (2:47, 5:14, 16:5).

You are worthy of worship of all people, and so we ask that those being saved would include religious leaders (18:8), radicals (9:18), and government officials (8:27). We ask that whole families would come into Your kingdom at the same time. (10:47, 16:15, 16:31, 18:8)

We pray that all believers will be unified in love under Christ (2:44, 4:32), devoted to the holy scriptures (2:42), and dedicated to prayer (2:42).

We ask that the result of this move of Your Spirit would be that everyone in Oman would have an opportunity to hear the good news (13:49, 19:10) and that worship would rise up like fragrant incense from every corner of this nation.

Now, to the God who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, may Your name be glorified in Oman like never before and through all generations forever and ever.

In the wonderful name of Jesus we pray. Amen.

全能的神,奉耶穌的名,我們祈求你的聖靈(使徒行傳2:33)像五旬節那樣在阿曼澆灌而下。願這樣的澆灌帶來我們在使徒行傳中看到的改變生命和社會的力量。

 

在那些日子裡,你每天都將得救的人加添到你的教會中,我們的願望是這將成為阿曼的現實,以榮耀你的名(2:47,5:14,16:5)。

 

你值得所有人敬拜,因此我們請求得救的人包括宗教領袖(18:8)、激進分子(9:18)和政府官員(8:27)。我們請求全家同時進入你的國度。(10:47,16:15,16:31,18:8)

 

我們祈求所有信徒在基督的愛中合一(2:44,4:32),專心研讀聖經(2:42),專心禱告(2:42)。

 

我們祈求你的靈感動的結果是阿曼的每一個人都有機會聽到好消息(13:49,19:10),敬拜就像馨香的香氣從這個國家的每一個角落升起。

 

神能夠做遠遠超出我們所求所想的事情,願你的名在阿曼得到前所未有的榮耀,世世代代,永永遠遠。

June Focus: Al Buraimi Region

Springs in the Desert

Al Buraimi region (pop. 121,802; Arabic: ٱلْبُرَيْمِي) is located on the border of Oman and the UAE, and the regional capital, Al Buraimi, sits across from its sister city, Al Ain in the Abu Dhabi emirate. These twin cities are situated on an oasis, and were once an ancient caravan stop for weary travelers crossing the harsh desert. This area was historically known as 'Tawam' (تَوَام), or 'Twins', referring to the twin 'aflaj' irrigation channels that feed off of the oasis. Al Buraimi is also known for its unique fort architecture, as well as its slave market, which only closed in 1970. It was also the site of an international dispute in the 1950s as Saudi Arabia, Oman, the UAE, and Britain vied for control of the strategic piece of land.

  • There has been a steady stream of Harvest Laborers in this area because of a language school. However, there have been changes in the past couple of years, and there aren’t as many on-site as before. Ask for more people to again come and live in this region.

  • Pray for the many, many Gospel seeds sown over the years. Pray that they would be watered and bear fruit. There are few, if any, known believers here.

六月重點:布賴米行政區

 

沙漠泉源

 

布賴米行政區(https://goo.gl/maps/AYxnzVwE1enKpvdz8 (人口121,802;阿拉伯語:ٱلْبُرَيْمِي)位於阿曼和阿聯酋的邊界,地區首府布賴米坐落於阿布達比酋長國的姐妹城市艾因對面。這兩座雙子城都在一片綠洲上,曾經是古老商隊停靠點,以便疲憊的旅行者穿越嚴酷沙漠。這個地區在歷史上被稱為「塔瓦姆」(تَوَام),或「雙生子」,指的是兩條「法拉吉」灌溉管道,它們從綠洲中獲取資源。布賴米也以其獨特的堡壘建築和奴隸市場而聞名,該市場直到1970年才關閉。它也是20世紀50年代國際爭端的發生地,當時沙特阿拉伯、阿曼、阿聯酋和英國爭奪這塊具有戰略意義的土地的控制權。

 

由於這裡有一所語言學校,這個地區一直有源源不斷的收莊稼工人。然而,在過去的幾年裡發生了變化,現場沒有以前那麼多人了。求主差派更多的人再次來到這個地區生活。

為多年來播下的許許多多福音種子禱告。求主澆灌他們,結出果子。如果這裡有已知的信徒,也很少。

Blessing Al Buraimi

Springs of Living Water

Some of the underground springs in Al Buraimi have run dry, but recently one of them miraculously started flowing again, to the utter amazement and delight of the local community! Let us bless Al-Buraimi with the abundant flow of the true Living Water!

O God, you are my God;

 I earnestly search for you.

My soul thirsts for you;

 my whole body longs for you

in this parched and weary land

 where there is no water.

(Psalm 63:1, NLT)

The Lord will guide you continually, giving you water when you are dry and restoring your strength.

You will be like a well-watered garden, like an ever-flowing spring.

Praying the Beatitudes, Part 1

Blessed are the Poor in Spirit

The next several days we will be praying for the people of Oman with the blessings of Jesus found in the Beatitudes. These prayers are adapted from a prayer guide that can be found here.

“BLESSED ARE THE POOR IN SPIRIT, FOR THEIRS IS THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN.” (MATTHEW 5:3)

Merciful Father, enable the people of Oman to accept that they are spiritually bankrupt without You. Deep in their hearts, they refuse to believe that “apart from you, they can do nothing.” Forgive them and free them from self-sufficiency. Allow them to embrace their neediness as both normal and necessary to become citizens in the Kingdom of God. May they rejoice that You have not left them to themselves in their poverty, but You have made them rich in Christ. Engender in them true humility, genuine repentance, bold brokenness, and ruthless dependence so that your Kingdom comes through them to earth as it is in heaven. May they grow to embody that “the way up is the way down” in all dimensions of life. Foster in them, as both individuals and as a community, the constant and authentic cry, “God have mercy on me a sinner.” We pray this humbly in the name of Jesus Christ, who though rich in glory became poor for our sakes so that in Him alone we might become rich in mercy and grace. Amen.

禱告登山寶訓,第1部分

 

虛心的人有福了

 

接下來的幾天,我們將用耶穌在登山寶訓中談論的八福為阿曼人民禱告。這些禱告改編自一個禱告指南,此處為連結(http://lmpc.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Beatitudes.pdf)。

 

「虛心的人有福了,因為天國是他們的。」(馬太福音5:3)

 

仁慈的天父,請讓阿曼人民願意接受這個事實,沒有你,他們在屬靈層面就是一貧如洗。在他們內心深處,他們拒絕相信「離開你,他們什麼也做不了」。請饒恕他們,讓他們不再依靠自己。讓他們承認自己的貧窮,這是成為天國公民的正常和必要條件。願他們歡喜,因為你沒有讓他們獨自陷在缺乏之中,而是讓他們因基督而變得富有。讓他們擁有真正的謙卑、真誠的悔改、勇敢的破碎和堅決的信靠,這樣你的天國就會通過他們來到人間,就像在天上一樣。願他們成長,在生活的各個方面都體現出「向上的路就是向下的路」。無論是作為個體還是群體,在他們身上培養出持續而真誠的呼求:「神憐憫我這個罪人。」我們奉耶穌基督的名謙卑地禱告,祂雖然擁有豐富榮耀,卻為了我們的緣故而變得貧窮,以便我們只有在祂裡面才能擁有豐富的憐憫和恩典。阿們。

Praying the Beatitudes, Part 2

Blessed are Those Who Mourn

The next several days we will be blessing the people of Oman from the blessings of Jesus found in the Beatitudes. These prayers are adapted from a prayer guide that can be found here.

“BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO MOURN, FOR THEY WILL BE COMFORTED.” (MATTHEW 5:4)

Gracious Comforter, we praise You for the truth of the words of the psalmist, “You have kept count of my tossings and put my tears in Your bottle.” You treasure the tears of the people of Oman and receive them with tender joy. Thank You. Would You teach the people of Oman to weep for all that breaks Your heart - whether it takes up residence inside of them or around them in their world? Bring to them godly sorrow as they encounter injustice, hatred, racism, relativism, secularism, and many other modes of being that love what You hate and hate what You love. Keep them from stoicism in the face of pain by softening their hearts in such a way that they refuse to pretend or deny the brokenness of life in a fallen world. Protect them from cynicism in the midst of their pain by comforting them with the hope of the Good News of Jesus. Encourage them with the truth that weeping may last for the night but joy comes in the morning, so that they do not grow weary or give up. Until that day when You wipe away every tear from the eyes and hearts of Your beloved, in Jesus’ name, Amen.

「哀慟的人有福了,因為他們必得安慰。」(馬太福音5:4)

 

仁慈的安慰者,我們讚美你,因為詩篇作者的話是真理,「我幾次流離,你都記數。求你把我眼淚裝在你的皮袋裡。」你珍視阿曼人民的眼淚,並以溫柔的喜樂接納他們。謝謝你。你是否教導阿曼人民為所有令你心碎的事情哭泣,無論是存在於他們內心還是他們周圍的世界?當他們遇到不公正、仇恨、種族主義、相對主義、世俗主義和許多其他愛你所恨、恨你所愛的生活方式時,請帶給他們從神而來的憂傷。讓他們面對痛苦時不要無動於衷,軟化他們的心,讓他們拒絕假裝或否認墮落世界中生活的破碎。用耶穌好消息的盼望安慰他們,保護他們在痛苦中擺脫憤世嫉俗的心態。用真理鼓勵他們,哭泣可能會持續一夜,但喜樂會在清晨到來,這樣他們就不會疲乏或放棄。直到那一天,你擦去你所愛之人眼中和心中的每一滴淚水,奉耶穌的名禱告,阿們。

與我們一同敬拜吧!《天國降臨》(https://youtu.be/n9ADmooylWQ),麗蓓嘉·聖詹姆斯。耶穌,願你的國度通過那些哀悼和心碎的人降臨!

Praying The Beatitudes, Part 3

Blessed are the Meek

The next several days we will be blessing the people of Oman from the blessings of Jesus found in the Beatitudes. These prayers are adapted from a prayer guide that can be found here.

“BLESSED ARE THE MEEK, FOR THEY WILL INHERIT THE EARTH.” (MATTHEW 5:5)

Humble King, we confess it is difficult for any of us to admire meekness. This is true for the people of Oman as well. Meekness means that they must be quietly dependent upon You; it means that they are in a place of neediness, humility, and waiting. It means that they would have to use what little strength they have for the sake of others. To them, meekness feels like a spiritual word for losing. May Omanis come to be in awe of Your son Jesus, the One who came in gentleness and humility. The One who came riding on a donkey, instead of parading on a warhorse. The One who ate and drank with sinners rather than jockeying for position with the religious. The One who did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but instead made Himself nothing. Forgive them for thinking of themselves more highly than they ought. Give them the faith to live simple, humble lives of self-awareness, which leads to love and service of others. Because of Your kindness, let them see what is in You: profound humility and strength for the sake of those who are most needy. In the name of Jesus we pray, Amen.

Worship with us!The Beatitudes by Hillsong. Jesus, we are blessed as we seek You and become like You!

溫柔的人有福了

 

接下來的幾天,我們將用耶穌在登山寶訓中談論的八福為阿曼人民禱告。這些禱告改編自一個禱告指南,此處為連結(http://lmpc.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Beatitudes.pdf)。

 

「溫柔的人有福了,因為他們必承受地土。」(馬太福音5:5)

 

謙卑的君王,我們承認,我們當中任何人都很難學會欽佩溫柔。對阿曼人民來說也是如此。溫柔意味著他們必須默默地依靠你;這意味著他們處於貧乏、謙卑和等待的境地。這意味著他們必須為了他人的利益而使用他們所擁有的那一點點力量。對他們來說,溫柔就感覺像是一個屬靈失敗的代稱。願阿曼人敬畏你的兒子耶穌,祂以溫柔謙卑的方式降臨。祂騎著驢子降臨,而不是騎著戰馬遊行。祂與罪人一起吃喝,而不與宗教人士謀取地位。祂不認為與神平等的地位可以由自己把控,而是讓自己成為一無所有的人。饒恕他們過高地看待自己。給他們信心,讓他們過上簡單、謙卑的生活,認清自己的身份,從而愛他人、為他人服務。因著你的良善,讓他們看到你的品格:為了最需要幫助的人而表現出深切的謙卑和力量。奉耶穌的名禱告,阿們。

Praying The Beatitudes, Part 4

Blessed are Those Who Hunger and Thirst

The next several days we will be blessing the people of Oman from the blessings of Jesus found in the Beatitudes. These prayers are adapted from a prayer guide that can be found here

“BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO HUNGER AND THIRST FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS, FOR THEY WILL BE FILLED.” (MATTHEW 5:6)

Jesus, our Bread from Heaven and our Living Water, we ask that You would so satisfy the hunger of the people of Oman that they stop looking to idols to feed them. Please don’t numb their hunger, for You gave them food and water so that they would daily understand how needy they are. Instead, cause them to be ravenous for You. Let nothing in this world slake their thirst but Your presence. They hunger for the gifts of this world, instead of the giver. And yet You sent your Son to feed them, to give them life even as they wander in the desert. Cause the Omanis to crave the righteousness that can only be found in Jesus. Stir in them a desire to know and love You, to make the things of this world strangely dim in the light of Your glory and grace. In Jesus’ name we pray, Amen.

Worship with us!Hunger + Thirst by The Belonging Co. Jesus, may we hunger and thirst for You alone!

「饑渴慕義的人有福了,因為他們必得飽足。」(馬太福音5:6)

 

耶穌,我們天降的糧食和活水,我們祈求你滿足阿曼人民的饑餓,使他們不再依靠偶像來餵養自己。請不要麻痹他們的饑餓感,因為你給了他們食物和水,這樣他們每天都會明白自己有多麼需要你。讓他們渴慕你。除了你的同在,世上沒有任何東西可以滿足他們的饑渴。他們渴望這個世界的禮物,而不是給予者。然而,你卻派你的兒子來餵養他們,給他們生命,即使他們在沙漠中流浪。讓阿曼人渴望只有在耶穌身上才能找到的義。激發他們認識和愛你的願望,讓這個世界的事物在你的榮耀和恩典的光芒下變得異常暗淡。奉耶穌的名禱告,阿們。

“BLESSED ARE THE MERCIFUL, FOR THEY SHALL BE SHOWN MERCY.” (MATTHEW 5:7)

Father of mercies, we praise You for Your compassion. Amidst Your endless strength and Your matchless holiness, You reach Your arms toward unworthy people in love and grace. When You see weakness, desperation, and sinfulness, Your heart is moved toward the people of Oman. You are merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love. Lord, have mercy on the Omanis, who are sinners. Grant them an unwavering commitment to pour out mercy on others, even as they have received Your mercy. O Lord, if You kept a record of sin, who could stand? Give the Omanis love for the One that showed them mercy, and fuel their mercy for others. In the name of our atoning sacrifice, Jesus, Amen.

Praying the Beatitudes, Part 6

Blessed are the Pure in Heart

The next several days we will be blessing the people of Oman from the blessings of Jesus found in the Beatitudes. These prayers are adapted from a prayer guide that can be found here.

“BLESSED ARE THE PURE IN HEART, FOR THEY WILL SEE GOD.” (MATTHEW 5:8)

Holy God, set the hearts and minds of the Omani people on things above. Their hearts, like ours, can be so cluttered with misplaced affections for earthly things. Their minds, like ours, can be so contaminated with lustful, greedy, angry, lazy, competitive, and prideful thoughts and ambitions. Forgive them for the impurity of their hearts through Jesus, who has graciously given to His beloved His perfect record of purity through His life, death, and resurrection. Thank You that Omanis can have the hope that their faith will become sight when they see their Holy God in the very face of Christ. May the sight of that coming glorious day shape their sight in these turbulent days so that they live fixing our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. Lead them to say no to those things that distract them from listening to You and following You. Soften their hearts and transform their wills, that they may exhibit sincerity of heart as they follow Your leading and presence in every situation they face. Until we all are made like You when we see You at Your return, we pray these things in Jesus’ name, Amen.

Worship with us!Beatitudes by Bethel. Jesus, give us pure hearts that we may see You!

「清心的人有福了,因為他們必得見神。」(馬太福音5:8)

 

聖潔的神,請將阿曼人民的心思意念放在天上。他們的心,就像我們的一樣,可能被對世俗事物的不恰當的感情所充斥。他們的思想,就像我們的一樣,可能被淫欲、貪婪、憤怒、懶惰、競爭和驕傲的想法和野心所污染。請通過耶穌饒恕他們心中的不潔,耶穌仁慈地通過祂的生命、死亡和復活,將祂完美的聖潔生命賜給了祂所愛的人。感謝你,阿曼人可以擁有盼望,當他們在基督面前看到他們的聖潔之神時,他們的信心將成為眼見。願那即將到來的榮耀之日的景象塑造他們在這些動蕩的日子裡的眼光,使他們的生活不是專注於看得見的東西,而是專注於看不見的東西。引導他們拒絕那些分散他們注意力、不聽從你和跟隨你的事物。軟化他們的心,改變他們的心意,使他們在面對的每種情況下都表現出真誠的心,跟隨你的帶領和同在。直到我們見到你再來時都變得像你一樣,我們奉耶穌的名禱告,阿們。

Blessed are the Peacemakers

This week we have been blessing the people of Oman from the blessings of Jesus found in the Beatitudes. These prayers are adapted from a prayer guide that can be found here.

“BLESSED ARE THE PEACEMAKERS, FOR THEY WILL BE CALLED SONS OF GOD.” (MATTHEW 5:9)

Forgiving Father, we praise You that Omanis can be reconciled to You by the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Because of Your gracious work of reconciliation in their lives, may they respond to conflict in a way that is noticeably different from how the world responds. Empower them to believe that conflict is not an accident but instead provides an opportunity to glorify God, serve others, and deepen in repentance. Please keep them from focusing on their own goals or fixating on the behavior of others, but instead may they first remove the log from their own eye. Soften their hearts so that they do not resist correction but instead receive rebuke because of their trust in Your mercy that leads us to boldly and humbly confess our sins to You and to others. Deliver them from living a ‘false peace’ by avoiding conflict or appeasing others because of fear. Fill them with love and humility, wisdom and gentleness as they step out in faith to live as peacemakers. In the name of Christ, our peace, we pray, Amen.

「使人和睦的人有福了,因為他們必稱為神的兒子。」(馬太福音5:9)

 

寬容慈悲的天父,我們讚美你,阿曼人可以通過耶穌基督的死亡和復活與你和好。因著你在他們生命中仁慈的和解之工,願他們以明顯不同於世界的方式應對衝突。賦予他們力量,讓他們相信衝突不是意外,而是提供了一個榮耀神、服務他人和更深悔改的機會。請讓他們不要專注於自己的目標或定睛於他人的行為,而是讓他們先從自己的眼中取出梁木。軟化他們的心,使他們不會抗拒糾正,反而因為他們信靠你的憐憫而接受責備,這引導我們勇敢謙卑地向你和他人坦白我們的罪過。通過避免衝突或出於敬畏而平息他人,讓他們擺脫「虛假的和平」。當他們滿懷信心地邁出腳步,過著和平締造者的生活時,讓他們充滿愛和謙卑、智慧和溫柔。我們奉我們的平安基督的名禱告,阿們。

Praying the Beatitudes, Part 8

Blessed are the Persecuted

The past week we have been blessing the people of Oman from the blessings of Jesus found in the Beatitudes. These prayers are adapted from a prayer guide that can be found here.

“BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO ARE PERSECUTED BECAUSE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, FOR THEIRS IS THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN.” (MATTHEW 5:10)

Suffering Servant, You told us that “if the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated Me first.” Please protect the believers in Oman from surprise when they suffer for their faith. May the truth of their union with Christ be so real to them that they expect to share both in Your sufferings and glory, both in Your cross and resurrection. We thank You that in the Upper Room as You spoke of the reality of the world’s hate, you also assured us of the presence of the Holy Spirit. We pray that all Christians currently persecuted in Oman would know the peace, comfort, and power of the Holy Spirit in the midst of their trial and pain. Open the eyes of captors and tormentors and give them the liberty and joy of Jesus. As they who follow the way of Jesus encounter unjust suffering, may they go the way of Jesus – no deceit, no retaliation, no threats. Give them faith in their moment of trial, so that like Jesus they entrust themselves to their Holy Father who judges justly. We ask these things in confidence and faith until that day when every knee will bow before our King and all Your foes are vanquished. In the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, Amen.

「為義受逼迫的人有福了,因為天國是他們的。」(馬太福音5:10)

 

受苦的僕人,你告訴我們「世人若恨你們,你們知道恨你們以先,已經恨我了」。當阿曼的信徒因信仰而受苦時,請保護他們免受意外。願他們與基督聯合的真理對他們如此真實,以至於他們期望分享你的苦難和榮耀,分享你的十字架和復活。我們感謝你,當你在樓上房間談到世人仇恨的現實時,你還向我們保證了聖靈的同在。我們禱告,所有目前在阿曼遭受逼迫的基督徒都能在他們遭受的考驗和痛苦中感受到聖靈的平安、安慰和力量。打開逮捕者和拷問者的眼睛,給他們耶穌的自由和喜樂。當那些跟隨耶穌的人遭遇不公正的苦難時,願他們走耶穌的路-沒有欺騙、沒有報復、沒有威脅。在他們受考驗的時刻給予他們信心,這樣他們就會像耶穌一樣將自己託付給他們公正審判的聖父。我們滿懷信心和信念地祈求這些,直到有一天,每個人都會跪拜在我們的君王面前,你的所有敵人都會被擊敗。奉聖父、聖子和聖靈的名禱告,阿們。

Al Buraimi

Border Oasis Town

Al-Buraimi (Arabic: ٱلْبُرَيْمِي, pop. 92,223) is the capital and largest city of Al Buraimi Region, and seat of Ar-Buraimi District (pop. 110,171). It is a border town, adjacent to the more prosperous city of Al Ain in the Abu Dhabi Emirate of the UAE. In the past this was an open border, and people were able to cross freely. In recent years the border has tightened up, with no more unregulated movement across it. There is an extensive border fence separating the two cities, and new border posts to control the crossing.

As a caravan oasis, the city of Al-Buraimi has long been a center for trade. This is evidenced by two ancient, imposing forts as well as extensive markets in the downtown area. It is also home to two institutes of higher education: The University of Buraimi, and Al Buraimi University. The district is known for its palm frond craft, production of copper tools, and embroidered clothing.

The name Buraimi is related to the Arabic root meaning ‘to twirl’. In Hebrew, the word translated “exult” means to jump and spin around, in joy.

"The Lord your God is in your midst, a warrior who gives victory; he will rejoice over you with gladness, he will renew you in his love; he will exult [dance, leap, spin] over you with loud singing." (Zephaniah 3:17)

So let us bless the town of Al-Buraimi with the knowledge of God’s love and joy and delight in them!

Pray for the Town and District of Al-Buraimi:

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

  • Expansion of the Kingdom. That many people in Al-Buraimi 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 Al-Buraimi, and that hearts will be stirred with hunger for Jesus and truth. (2 Cor 4:4, Luke 24:45)

布賴米​

 

邊境綠洲小鎮

 

布賴米(https://goo.gl/maps/xeXtJCs5oyRhz9sCA)(阿拉伯語:ٱلْبُرَيْمِي,人口92,223)是布賴米行政區的首府和最大城市,也是布賴米區(人口110,171)的中心地帶。這是一個邊境城鎮,毗鄰阿聯酋阿布達比酋長國更繁華的城市艾因。過去,這是一個開放的邊境,人們可以自由往來。近年來,邊境管制已經收緊,不再有不受管制的邊境穿越。兩座城市之間由一道巨大的邊境圍欄分隔,還有新的邊境管制站控制過境。

 

作為商隊的綠洲,布賴米市長期以來一直是貿易中心。市中心地區的兩座古老而雄偉的堡壘和廣闊的市場就是明證。這裡還有兩所高等教育機構:布賴米綜合高校和布賴米大學。該地區以椰棗樹葉工藝品、銅器工具生產和刺繡服裝而聞名。

 

Buraimi這個名字與阿拉伯語詞根「旋轉」有關。在希伯來語中,翻譯為「歡欣鼓舞」的單詞意味著高興地跳躍和旋轉。

 

「耶和華你的神是施行拯救、大有能力的主。他在你中間必因你歡欣喜樂,默然愛你,且因你喜樂而歡呼。」(西番雅書3:17)

 

所以讓我們在認識神的愛、喜悅和歡樂之後祝福布賴米城鎮吧!

 

為布賴米的城鎮和轄區禱告:

 

神的榮耀。神將在布賴米得榮耀,尊崇和敬拜。(哈巴谷書2:14;詩篇138:4-5)

神國的擴展。布賴米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。在布賴米人民的頭腦中,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,這權柄勝過布賴米的公國統治權、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。願任何生活在布賴米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。願神將祂的供應和福氣帶給布賴米所有有需要的人。祂要顯示祂永遠的慈愛,顯明祂國度的賜福,使祂的百姓興旺。(腓立比書4:19,耶利米書29:7)

Date Palms, Part 1

Nourishment of the Desert

Date palms flourish in the desert heat as few other trees can. As such, they have been a staple crop in Oman, the Gulf, and indeed throughout the Middle East and North Africa for centuries. Just 15 dates a day can supply enough calories and nutrients for a person to live on, providing fiber, potassium, magnesium, manganese, copper, selenium, amino acids, iron, vitamins, and more! Indeed, dates have been a staple food to the Bedouin tribes as they roam the desert lands, and for sailors and traders as they sailed the seas. Some researchers even consider dates to be an 'ideal' food that can help alleviate world hunger!

Palm trees can live for 100-200 years. In Oman, traditionally a palm tree was planted at the birth of a son, to sustain him and his family throughout his lifetime. Today, Oman is one of the top 10 producers of dates in the world, with more than 8 million trees and 250 indigenous varieties. However, nearly 80% of production is of just 10 varieties, the most popular being Fard, Khalas, and Kutaisi. A single tree may produce up to 270 kg (595 lbs) of dates, with a single cluster weighing up to 12 kg (26 lbs). When properly stored, dried dates can last for years.

Watch a short prayer video about oases and palm trees here.

He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers. (Psalm 1:3)

We bless the people of Oman to be like the palm tree, planted in the oasis by the falaj, bearing nourishing fruit and sustained in the scorching sun!

椰棗樹,第1部分

 

沙漠的滋養

 

很少有樹木能像椰棗樹一樣在沙漠的高溫下生長茂盛。因此,多個世紀以來,椰棗樹一直是阿曼、海灣地區乃至整個中東和北非的主要作物。每天僅需15顆椰棗就能提供一個人生存所需足夠的熱量和營養,為人體提供纖維素、鉀、鎂、錳、銅、硒、氨基酸、鐵、維生素等!事實上,椰棗一直是在沙漠地帶遊走的貝都因部落的主食,也是在海上航行的航海者和商人的主食。一些研究人員甚至認為椰棗是一種「理想」食物,可以幫助緩解世界饑荒!

 

椰棗樹的壽命可達100-200年。在阿曼,傳統上人們會在兒子出生時種植椰棗樹,以養活他和他的家人一生。如今,阿曼是世界十大椰棗產地之一,擁有800多萬棵樹和250個本土品種。然而,近80%的產量只有10個品種,最受歡迎的是Fard,Khalas和Kutaisi。一棵樹可以產出多達270公斤(595磅)的椰棗,一串椰棗重達12公斤(26磅)。如果儲存得當,幹椰棗可以保存數年。

他要像一棵樹栽在溪水旁,按時候結果子,葉子也不枯乾。凡他所作的盡都順利。(詩篇1:3)

 

我們祝福阿曼人民像椰棗樹一樣,在法拉吉(灌溉系統)旁邊的綠洲中栽種,結出滋養人的果實,在烈日下茁壯成長!

Date Palms, Part 2

Life-Sustaining Harvest

Although date palms are hardy, they are not necessarily easy to cultivate. The trees are fertilized by hand, with the pollen flowers from the male tree painstakingly inserted by the farmer into the flowers of the female tree. Shortly after pollination, the fruit branches are bent down to ease in harvesting; the clusters naturally grow straight up!

Every part of the date palm is used for numerous purposes: for food, furniture, housing, fencing, animal feed, rope, handicrafts, and even beehives! Traditional Omani housewares are woven from palm fronds, such as fans, mats, baskets, etc. The cultural significance of the date palm in the Middle East was recently recognized by UNESCO as an item of World Heritage.

Today, let's bless Omani believers with a promise for the righteous:

"Yes! Look how You’ve made all your devoted lovers to flourish like palm trees, each one growing in victory, standing with strength! You’ve transplanted them into Your heavenly courtyard, where they are thriving before You, for in Your presence they will still overflow and be anointed. Even in their old age they will stay fresh, bearing luscious fruit and abiding faithfully." (Psalm 92:12-14, TPT)

  • We bless Omani believers to flourish! We bless them to grow in victory! We bless them to stand with strength!

  • We bless Omani believers to thrive in Your presence, anointed by Your Spirit, worshipping in Spirit and in Truth!

  • We bless Omani believers to bear much fruit, to abide faithfully, and for their fruit to remain!

椰棗樹,第2部分

 

維持生命的收穫

 

盡管椰棗樹耐寒,但種植卻並不容易。椰棗樹的授粉是手工進行的,農民會將雄樹的花粉小心翼翼地插入雌樹的花朵中。授粉後不久,結果的樹枝就會彎下來,便於採摘;椰棗串自然情況下會筆直生長!

 

椰棗樹的每個部分都有多種用途:用作食物、傢俱、房屋、柵欄、動物飼料、繩索、手工藝品,甚至蜂箱!傳統的阿曼家庭用品是用椰棗樹葉編織而成的,例如扇子、墊子、籃子等。椰棗樹在中東的文化意義最近被聯合國教科文組織認定https://ich.unesco.org/en/RL/date-palm-knowledge-skills-traditions-and-practices-01902)為世界遺產。

 

今天,讓我們用神的義的應許來祝福阿曼信徒:

 

「義人要發旺如棕樹,生長如黎巴嫩的香柏樹。他們栽於耶和華的殿中,發旺在我們神的院裡。他們年老的時候仍要結果子,要滿了汁漿而常發青。」(詩篇92:12-14)

 

我們祝福阿曼信徒興旺發達!我們祝福他們在得勝中成長!我們祝福他們堅定站立!

我們祝福阿曼信徒在你的同在中茁壯成長,受到你的屬靈的恩膏,用心靈和誠實敬拜!

我們祝福阿曼信徒結出豐碩的果實,忠心地常與你同在,並且他們的果實永存!
