Apr. 25, 2014 | Bahrain Pray for Girl Beaten by Mother for Faith in Jesus A 10-year-old girl was badly beaten recently by her mother and uncle because she told them she believes in Jesus. The girl's father has been a believer for several years and is open with his family about his faith. During a recent conversation with her mother and uncle, the girl was asked what she believed. She replied, "I believe what my dad believes. I believe in Jesus." Her mother and uncle immediately began to beat her, leaving her badly bruised. Despite the beating, the girl and her father remain committed to following Christ. Post Your Prayer Apr. 25, 2014 | Nigeria Pray for Fulani People to Receive Gospel Message Many traditionally Muslim Fulani people in northeastern Nigeria are hearing the gospel for the first time through audio Bibles. This year, Christian workers are distributing 10,000 MP3 players with audio Bibles. The Fulani, a nomadic tribe of herdsmen and hunters, have been difficult to reach and often are opposed to the gospel. Many young men among the Fulani have joined the Islamist group Boko Haram and become hunters of Christians. The demand for audio Bibles continues to grow, and it appears that many Fulani are eagerly receiving the gospel message. Post Your Prayer Apr. 25, 2014 | India Pray for Christians During Elections Many in India are watching national elections with concern, as a Hindu nationalist is expected to be elected prime minister. Some Christians are concerned that if Modi, prime ministerial candidate for the BJP, wins the election as expected, religious freedoms will be restricted and persecution of Christians may increase. Elections began on April 7, and results are expected by May 16. Although some Christians are fearful, many are resting in God's sovereignty. One Christian worker from India said the elections are "irrelevant to the progress of the gospel. ... God is in control, not Congress Party or BJP."
