July 20th - August 18th is Ramadan, the holiest time for a Muslim. Would you pray during these days for fellow Christians living in Islamic-dominated countries, for strength when they are harassed, for comfort when they are fearful, but most importantly that they may be emboldened to share the Gospel when possible?

"Blessed are the pure of heart, for they shall see God."

Day 23: August 11

The pure in heart live in confidence knowing that they will see Christ face-to-face in heaven.

Lord, today we lift up those who travel across difficult borders taking scriptures in countries where Your Word is banned.  Father as they face the threat of beating, imprisonment and even death if discovered, fill their hearts with the sure knowledge that one day they will see You face-to-face when You will honor their faithfulness to You.
