Shan-Tai
Intercessors bulletin 100
We
covet your prayers to see the Kingdom of
God established amongst the Shan-Tai.
Tension is
rising in Burma
again. The military government (SPDC) have doubled the price of fuel
and there have been demonstrations in Yangon. Elsewhere in the country
too there is talk of possible fighting. As the "government" gets to the
end of its discussions on creating a new
constitution the pressure to
strive for one army over all of Burma is creating tension with ethnic
minorities who have their own armies.
Many of these armies have fragile
ceasefire agreements with the SPDC. One man that I spoke to this week
said, "We don't want to resort to arms, we want to live peacefully, but
the Burmese army come and take all of our produce leaving us
with
nothing. We have no alternative but to leave our homes and protect
ourselves."
- This is the 100th
Shan-Tai intercessors bulletin. Thank you for your intercession on
behalf of
the Shan. Pray for a fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit on your own
life that you may be empowered afresh in you prayers for the Shan-Tai.
- "Our hope is for peace
and a quiet life." Pray that the Prince of peace would rend the heavens
and come down establishing His kingdom among the Shan-Tai as it is in
Heaven.
- As the Shan continue to
face persecution pray that they will call out to the UNKNOWN GOD who made
them and who is close enough to save them if they call upon his name.
Don't keep the blessing of praying for the Shan-Tai to
yourself, get others praying with you!
