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 they who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied."

Day 16: August 4

The righteous believer feeds hungrily on the Word of God that he will live a God-filled life.

Father, for Christians working in government and other places of influence increase their hunger for Your Word and godly living.  Strengthen them to live lives of righteousness even when persecuted and intimidated.  May You fill them with wisdom in their actions ultimately drawing others to You.
