1) John 1:35-51, Mark 1:12-13, Matthew 4:1-11, Luke 4:1-15, John 2

John 1:35-51

The First Disciples
35 Again, the next day John was standing with two of his disciples.
36 Looking upon -!Jesus as He walked, he said, "Look, the Lamb of God!"
37 The two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
38 Then Jesus turned, saw them following, and said to them,
"What do you seek?"
And they said to Him, "Rabbi" (which means Teacher), "where are You staying?" 39 Jesus said to them, "Come and see."
So they came and saw where He stayed and remained with Him that day,
for it was about the tenth hour.
40 One of the two who heard John speak, and followed Him, was Andrew,
Simon Peter's brother.
41 He first found his own brother Simon, and said to him,
"We have found the Messiah" (which means the Christ).
42 Then he brought him to Jesus.
When Jesus saw him, He said, "You are Simon the son of John.
You shall be called Cephas" (which means Peter).

[35] Again the next day after John stood, and two of his disciples;
[36] And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God! [37] And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
[38] Then Jesus turned, and saw them following, and saith unto them, What
seek ye? They said unto him, Rabbi, (which is to say, being interpreted, Master,) where dwellest thou?
[39] He saith unto them, Come and see. They came and saw where he dwelt, and abode with him that day: for it was about the tenth hour.
[40] One of the two which heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew,
Simon Peter's brother.
[41] He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have
found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ.
[42] And he brought him to Jesus. And when Jesus beheld him, he said, Thou
art Simon the son of Jona: thou shalt be called Cephas, which is by interpretation, A stone.

The Calling of Philip and Nathanael

43 The next day Jesus wanted to go to Galilee, and He found Philip,
and said to him, "Follow Me."
44 Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.
45 Philip found Nathanael and said to him, "We have found Him of whom
Moses in the law, as well as the prophets, wrote, Jesus of Nazareth,
the son of Joseph."
46 Nathanael said to him, "Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?"
Philip said to him, "Come and see."
47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to Him and said concerning him,
"Here is an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile.
48 Nathanael said to Him, "How do You know me?"
Jesus answered him, "Before Philip called you, when you were
under the fig tree, I saw you."
49 Nathanael answered Him, "Rabbi, You are the Son of God!
You are the King of Israel!"
50 Jesus answered him, "Because I said to you, 'I saw you under
the fig tree,' do you believe? You will see greater things than these."
51 And He said to him, "Truly, truly I say to you, hereafter you shall see heaven opened and the angels of God ascending
and descending upon the Son of Man."

[43] The day following Jesus would go forth into Galilee, and findeth
Philip, and saith unto him, Follow me.
[44] Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.
[45] Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of
whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the
son of Joseph.
[46] And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see.
[47] Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an
Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!
[48] Nathanael saith unto him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and
said unto him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.
[49] Nathanael answered and saith unto him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel.
[50] Jesus answered and said unto him, Because I said unto thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, believest thou? thou shalt see greater things than
these.
[51] And he saith unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Hereafter ye
shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon
the Son of man.

Mark 1:12-13

The Temptation of Jesus
Mt 4:1-11; Lk 4:1-13

12 (Mt 4:1-11) The Spirit immediately drove Him into the wilderness.
13 (Mt 26:53; Heb 4:15) And He was there in the wilderness for forty days, tempted by Satan, and was with the wild beasts.
And the angels ministered to Him.

[12] And immediately the Spirit driveth him into the wilderness.
[13] And he was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted of Satan;
and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered unto him.

Matthew 4:1-11

The Temptation of Jesus

Mk 1:12-13; Lk 4:1-13

1 (Lk 4:1-13; Heb 2:18) Then Jesus was led up into the wilderness
by the Spirit to be tempted by the devil.
2 (1Ki 19:8; Ex 34:28) And He had fasted for forty days and forty nights,
and then He was hungry.
3 (1Th 3:5; Mt 3:17) And the tempter came to Him and said,
"If You are the Son of God, command that these stones be turned into bread."
4 (Dt 8:3; Lk 4:4; Mt 4:7) But He answered, "It is written,
'Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds
out of the mouth of God.'Ex 20:12; Dt 5:16."
5 (Mt 27:53; Ne 11:1) Then the devil took Him up into the holy city,
and set Him on the highest point of the temple,
6 (Ps 91:11-12) and said to Him, "If You are the Son of God,
throw Yourself down. For it is written,
'He shall give His angels charge concerning you,' Ps 91:11-12.
and
'In their hands they shall lift you up,
lest at any time you dash your foot against a stone.' Ps 91:12."
7 (Dt 6:16; Mt 4:4) Jesus said to him, "It is also written,
'You shall not tempt the Lord your God.' Dt 6:16."
8 (Mt 16:26; 1Jn 2:15-16) Again, the devil took Him up on a very high
mountain and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their grandeur,
9 and said to Him, "All these things I will give You if You will fall down
and worship me. "
10 (1Ch 21:1; Dt 10:20) Then Jesus said to him, "Get away from here, Satan!
For it is written, 'You shall worship the Lord your God,
and Him only shall you serve.'Dt 6:13. "
11 (Mt 26:53; Lk 22:43; Heb 1:14) Then the devil left Him,
and immediately angels came and ministered to Him.

Matthew 4
[1] Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.
[2] And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred.
[3] And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.
[4] But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread
alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
[5] Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple,
[6] And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it
is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their
hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.
[7] Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord
thy God.
[8] Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and
sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;
[9] And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.
[10] Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written,
Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.
[11] Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered
unto him.

Luke 4:1-15

The Temptation of Jesus

Mt 4:1-11; Mk 1:12-13

1 (Mt 4:1-11; Mk 1:12-13) Jesus, being filled with the Holy Spirit,
returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness,
2 (1Ki 19:8; Ex 34:28) being tempted by the devil for forty days.
During those days He ate nothing. And when they were ended, He was hungry.
3 The devil said to Him, "If You are the Son of God,
command this stone to become bread."
4 (Dt 8:3; Lk 4:8) Jesus answered him, "It is written,
'Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.'Dt 8:3."
5 The devil, taking Him up onto a high mountain, showed Him all the kingdoms
of the world in a moment of time.
6 (Jn 12:31; 14:30) And the devil said to Him, "I will give You all this power and their glory, for it has been delivered to me. And I give it to whomever
I will.
7 If You, then, will worship me, all will be Yours."
8 (Dt 6:13; Mt 4:10) And Jesus answered him,
"Get behind Me, Satan! For it is written,
'You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only shall you serve.'Dt 6:13."
9 (Mt 4:5-6; Lk 4:3) He brought Him to Jerusalem, set Him on the pinnacle
of the temple, and said to Him, "If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself
down from here.
10 (Ps 91:11-12) For it is written:
'He shall give His angels charge concerning you,
to preserve you,'
11 and
'In their hands they shall hold you up,
lest you strike your foot against a stone.'Ps 91:11rCo12."
12 (Dt 6:16) Jesus answered him,
"It is said, 'You shall not tempt the Lord your God.'Dt 6:16."
13 (Jn 14:30; Heb 4:15) When the devil had ended all the temptations,
he departed from Him until another time.

The Beginning of the Galilean Ministry

Luke 4
[1] And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was
led by the Spirit into the wilderness,
[2] Being forty days tempted of the devil. And in those days he did eat nothing: and when they were ended, he afterward hungered.
[3] And the devil said unto him, If thou be the Son of God, command this
stone that it be made bread.
[4] And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not
live by bread alone, but by every word of God.
[5] And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain, shewed unto him
all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.
[6] And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and
the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I
will I give it.
[7] If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine.
[8] And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for
it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt
thou serve.
[9] And he brought him to Jerusalem, and set him on a pinnacle of the
temple, and said unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down
from hence:
[10] For it is written, He shall give his angels charge over thee, to
keep thee:
[11] And in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou
dash thy foot against a stone.
[12] And Jesus answering said unto him, It is said, Thou shalt not tempt
the Lord thy God.
[13] And when the devil had ended all the temptation, he departed from him
for a season.

Mt 4:12-17; Mk 1:14-15
14 (Mt 4:12) Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit to Galilee.
And His fame went throughout the surrounding region.
15 (Mt 4:23) He taught in their synagogues, being glorified by everyone.

[14] And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit into Galilee: and there
went out a fame of him through all the region round about.
[15] And he taught in their synagogues, being glorified of all.

John 2

The Wedding at Cana

1 (Jn 4:46; 21:2) On the third day there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee.
The mother of Jesus was there.
2 Both Jesus and His disciples were invited to the wedding.
3 When the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus said to Him, "They have no wine." 4 (Jn 7:6; 7:30) Jesus said to her, "Woman, what does this have to do with Me? My hour has not yet come."
5 His mother said to the servants, "Whatever He says to you, do it."
6 (Jn 3:25) Six water pots made of stone were sitting there, used
for ceremonial cleansing by the Jews, containing twenty to thirty gallons
[Gk. 2 to 3 metretes, or 75 to 115 liters.] each.
7 Jesus said to them, "Fill the water pots with water."
And they filled them up to the brim.
8 Then He said to them, "Now draw some out, and take it to the master
of the feast." And they took it.
9 (Jn 4:46) When the master of the feast tasted the water that had been
turned into wine, and did not know where it came from
(though the servants who drew the water knew), the master of the feast
called the bridegroom,
10 and he said to him, "Every man serves the good wine first, and after men have drunk freely, then the poor wine is served.
But you have kept the good wine until now."
11 (Jn 1:14; 3:2) This, the first of His signs, Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and He revealed His glory, and His disciples believed in Him.
12 (Mt 12:46; 4:13) After this He, and His mother, and His brothers,
and His disciples went down to Capernaum. They remained there a few days.

John 2
[1] And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the
mother of Jesus was there:
[2] And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage.
[3] And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have
no wine.
[4] Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is
not yet come.
[5] His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it. [6] And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece.
[7] Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled
them up to the brim.
[8] And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it.
[9] When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom,
[10] And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good
wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now.
[11] This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him.
[12] After this he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother, and his brethren, and his disciples: and they continued there not many days.

The Cleansing of the Temple

Mt 21:12-17; Mk 11:15-17; Lk 19:45-48

13 (Lk 2:41; Jn 11:55) The Passover of the Jews was at hand,
and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
14 (Mk 11:15; Lk 19:45-46) In the temple He found those who were selling oxen and sheep and doves, and the moneychangers sitting there.
15 When He had made a whip of cords, He drove them all out of the temple,
with the sheep and oxen. He poured out the changers' money
and overturned the tables.
16 (Lk 2:49) He said to those who sold doves,
"Take these things away!
Do not make My Father's house a house of merchandise!"
17 (Ps 69:9) His disciples remembered that it was written,
"Zeal for Your house will consume Me."Ps 69:9.
18 (Jn 6:30) Then the Jews said to Him, "What sign do You show us,
seeing that You do these things?"
19 (Mt 27:40; Mk 14:58) Jesus answered them,
"Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up."
20 Then the Jews said, "It has taken 46 years to build this temple,
and will You raise it up in three days?"
21 (1Co 6:19; Jn 1:14) But He was speaking concerning the temple of His body. 22 (Jn 12:16; 14:26) Therefore, when He was raised from the dead,
His disciples remembered that He had said this to them.
And they believed the Scripture and the word which Jesus had spoken.

[13] And the Jews' passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem,
[14] And found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and
the changers of money sitting:
[15] And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers' money, and overthrew the tables;
[16] And said unto them that sold doves, Take these things hence; make not
my Father's house an house of merchandise.
[17] And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of thine
house hath eaten me up.
[18] Then answered the Jews and said unto him, What sign shewest thou unto
us, seeing that thou doest these things?
[19] Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three
days I will raise it up.
[20] Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building,
and wilt thou rear it up in three days?
[21] But he spake of the temple of his body.
[22] When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered
that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the
word which Jesus had said.

Jesus Knows All Men

23 (Jn 3:2) Now when He was in Jerusalem at the Passover Feast,
many believed in His name when they saw the signs which He did.
24 (Mt 9:4; Jn 5:42) But Jesus did not entrust Himself to them,
because He knew all men,
25 and did not need anyone to bear
witness of man, for He knew what was in man.

[23] Now when he was in Jerusalem at the passover, in the feast day, many believed in his name, when they saw the miracles which he did.
[24] But Jesus did not commit himself unto them, because he knew all men,
[25] And needed not that any should testify of man: for he knew what was in man.

John 11:38-44

Lazarus Brought to Life

38 (Mt 27:60; Jn 11:33) Then Jesus, again groaning within Himself,
came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone was lying against it.
39 (Jn 11:17) Jesus said, "Take away the stone."
Martha, the sister of him who was dead, said to Him,
"Lord, by this time there is a stench, for he has been dead four days."
40 (Jn 11:4; 11:23-26) Jesus said to her,
"Did I not tell you that if you believed, you would see the glory of God?"
41 (Jn 17:1; Mt 11:25) So they took away the stone from the place where
the dead man was lying. Jesus lifted up His eyes and said,
"Father, I thank You that You have heard Me.
42 (Jn 3:17; 17:21) I know that You always hear Me. But because of the people standing around, I said this, that they may believe that You sent Me."
43 When He had said this, He cried out with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out!" 44 (Jn 20:7; 19:40) He who was dead came out, his hands and feet wrapped
with grave clothes, and his face wrapped with a cloth.
Jesus said to them, "Unbind him, and let him go."

[38] Jesus therefore again groaning in himself cometh to the grave. It was a cave, and a stone lay upon it.
[39] Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time he stinketh: for he hath been dead four days.
[40] Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?
[41] Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid.
And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.
[42] And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people which stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.
[43] And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.
[44] And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose
him, and let him go.

Football fans were stunned when Damar Hamlin of the Buffalo Bills collapsed on the field on live television after executing a seemingly routine tackle in January 2023. The twenty-four-year-old was in sudden cardiac arrest. His heart stopped beating but was restored by medical professionals while on the field. Amazingly, three months after dying and being resuscitated on the field, Hamlin was cleared to play football again.

Hamlin has stated that he's grateful to God and the medical staff for saving his life. He plans to continue being an inspiration to others. In John
chapter 11, Lazarus also had a remarkable recovery.

By the time Jesus had arrived in Bethany, Lazarus had been dead for four days. His distraught sisters, Mary and Martha, witnessed Jesus' power over death
and that He is "the resurrection and the life" (John 11:25). "Jesus called in a loud voice, 'Lazarus, come out!' The dead man came out, his hands and feet wrapped with strips of linen, and a cloth around his face" (vv. 43-44).

We're also examples of Christ's resurrection power. We were once dead in our sins, but we're now alive in Christ (Romans 6:1-11). As believers, the same Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead lives inside of us (8:10-11). Be encouraged. While we'll all die a physical death, that's not the end of our story. We're promised eternal life with Jesus.

Reflect & Pray

How does the gift of eternal life give you hope?
How does Jesus' resurrection power encourage you?

Dear God, thank You for Your resurrection power.

3) From The Billy Graham Evangelical Ministry Association

Words in Season - Scripture Memory Tools

Week 3 - Saved Now and Forever - Day 2 - The Right of Family

John 1:11-12

11 (Jn 3:32) He came to His own, and His own people did not receive Him.
12 (Gal 3:26; 1Jn 3:23) Yet to all who received Him, He gave the power
to become sons of God, to those who believed in His name,

11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power
to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:

"Dad, can I ask you something?" Jimmy leaned across the back of his
father's chair. His father lowered the newspaper and reached around,
settling Jimmy on his lap.
"Sure. Son," he answered. "You can ask me anything you want. The answer
might not be Yes, but you always have the right to ask."
For many who have grown up in homes where the father was absent, or when present, abusive or silent, the scenario of Jimmy and his father may
seem unrealistic. Often we aren't given the right by our parents to ask
what we want, to communicate openly, to express our needs and desires.
But god clearly indicates that no matter what our human families have been like, in his family there are no barriers to belonging,
to open communications. When we commit our lives to Christ and submit to his lordship, we have the right to become the sons and daughters of God.
In Christ, we have the right to approach him, to pray, to seek wisdom,
to ask advice, to make requests, to verbalise our needs and desires. We don't have to be afraid of sounding stupid or being rejected, because in Christ
we belong to him, and he loves us.
The KJV uses the word "power" in verse 12 - "to them gave he power to become the sons of God." Power implies ability, that we are equipped by the Spirit
to be children of the King. We have the right and we have the power to become who God has called us to be - his children.

Application

a) Under what circumstances in my life have I felt that I didn't
have the right to express my wishes or feelings?

b) How do today's verses give me confidence in approaching God?

4) From Prosperity Promises - Kenneth Copeland

Luke 6:38

38 "Give, and it will be given to you: Good measure, pressed down,
shaken together, and running over will men give unto you.
For with the measure you use, it will be measured unto you."

38 give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down,
and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For
with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.

5) From a Book called God's Promises for you:

When you are Burdened by Doubt

Proverbs 30:5

5 Every word of God is pure;
He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him.

5 Every word of God is pure:
He is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.

Remember God's promises when You pray

The Lord's prayer

Matthew 6:9-13

9 "Therefore pray in this manner:
Our Father who is in heaven,
hallowed be Your name.
10 (Mt 3:2; 4:17) Your kingdom come;
Your will be done
on earth, as it is in heaven.
11 (Pr 30:8; Isa 33:16) Give us this day our daily bread.
12 (Ex 34:7; Ps 32:1) And forgive us our debts,
as we forgive our debtors.
13 (1Co 10:13; Jn 17:15) And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen."

9 After this manner therefore pray ye:
Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
10 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
11 Give us this day our daily bread.
12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil:
For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

6) This come from Praying for Muslims in Canada 2015 (Is there a 2021 edition?)

Prince Edward Island

Total population 146300
Muslim population (est.) 1127

Charlottetown does not currently (fall 2014) have a local CNMM network.
Pray with us for God's people to come together in reaching Muslims cooperatively across denominational and organisational lines.

More than 200 attended the Eid festival at the end of Ramadan, the Islamic month of fasting during daylight hours and the reading of the Qur'an, at
the Dar as-Salam mosque in 2014. This second mosque established
in Charlottetown, the other being the Muslims Association of PEI.
As of mid-2014,there are between 250 to 300 families, mostly in Charlottetown.

The Muslims of Charlottetown see their community as symbolically important
for this nation since this is known as the "birthplace of Canada". Yet we were established as the "Dominion of Canada" with an appeal not only to
monarchial authority, but even more to God's higher Biblical authority as
shown in Psalm 72:8, "May he have dominion from sea to sea,
and from the River to the ends of the earth."
Let us intercede together for:

- the growing Muslim population of Charlottetown and spreading
outward through PEI to encounter the Prince of Peace.
- believers to have faith and vision to reach out to the Muslim Community
in contextual waysto sahre the Gosepl
- churches and ministries to rise up in wisdom, knowledge and understanding, giving and training, coaching and encouragement to believers reaching
out to Muslims locally.
- a prayer movement to be established, feeding a growing move of Yahweh's Spirit in His churches and poeple , and an awakening an openness
and spiritual hunger in Muslims for realtionship with the Father

30 days of prayer for the Muslim World 24 April to 23 May 2020

Under the Keep Praying page

When the new moon is sighted it marks the beginning of t he new Islamic month and Eid al-Fitr, the "Festival of Breaking the Fast", will start! After 30 days of fasting, the Eid celebration at the end of Ramadan is a joyful time that usually lasts about 3 days. Muslims will buy new clothes, exchange gifts and, of course, enjoy special foods. In Muslim-majority nations, the streets may be decorated and festivals will be held.
For many Muslims, Eid-al-Fitr begins with communal prayers at daybreak and the distribution of money (zakat) to the poor, which is one of the 5 pillars of Islam.
You can greet Muslim friends during this time by saying "Eid Mubarak",
which means Blessed Eid!"
Ramadan is over for this year, but you can continue to pray for Muslims you know, and Muslims around the world:
- Despite the unsettling developments in our world today that involve actions in the name of Islam, there is at the same time a largely untold story about unprecedented movement to Christ among Muslims. There have been more such movements of thousands or more new disciples among Muslims in the last three decades or so than in all the previous history of Christian Muslim relationships! Pray for this momentum to continue.

Acts 2:12-17 : 17 12 They were all amazed and perplexed, saying to each other, "What does this mean?"
13 (1Co 14:23) Others mocking said, "These men are full of new wine."

Peter's Speech at Pentecost

14 (Ac 1:26) But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice
and said to them, "Men of Judea and all you who dwell in Jerusalem,
let this be known to you, and listen to my words.
15 For these are not drunk, as you suppose,
since it is the third hour of the day.
16 But this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel:
17 (Isa 44:3; Ac 10:45) 'In the last days it shall be,' says God,
'that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh;
your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
your young men shall see visions,
and your old men shall dream dreams.'

- Pray for Christian workers an organisations focused on seeing effective discipleship movements among Muslim people.

- Ask the Holy Spirit to continue to inspire you to have god's heart for Muslims, to see them as He does, and to be the light that then to Jesus.

Matthew 5:14-15 : 14 "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do men light a candle and put it under
a basket, but on a candlestick. And it gives light to all who are in the house."

Ideas for prayer

- Pray for opportunities to show the love of Christ to Muslims around you
- Pray for, and offer generous hospitality to, those you know who are serving Christ among Muslim people -

Romans 12:13 "contribute to the needs of the saints, practice hospitality."
- When you gather with fellow believers, remember to pray for Muslims throughout the year and encourage them to also participate in 30 Days!

My paternal side is of Muslim heritage and will offer this section to further call for Muslim converts to Christian and any other converts to Christianity

(Hindus, Jews, aboriginals Canadian, atheists, secular humanists, ...)

Day 29 of the Month

a) Pray that God will enlighten those in medicine and health care
to acknowledge the sanctity of life and server with true
integrity and compassion (

Ps 139:13-16

13 You brought my inner parts into being;
You wove me in my mother's womb.
14 I will praise you, for You made me with fear and wonder;
marvelous are Your works,
and You know me completely.
15 My frame was not hidden from You
when I was made in secret,
and intricately put together in the lowest parts of the earth.
16 Your eyes saw me unformed,
yet in Your book
all my days were written,
before any of them came into being.

13 For thou hast possessed my reins:
Thou hast covered me in my mother's womb.
14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made:
Marvellous are thy works; And that my soul knoweth right well.
15 My substance was not hid from thee,
When I was made in secret, and curiously wrought
in the lowest parts of the earth.
16 Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect;
And in thy book all my members were written,
Which in continuance were fashioned,
When as yet there was none of them.

)
