Not so Scary

These are Lampung Abung girls playing in their village. Many believers in Lampung are afraid to share the Gospel with their Lampungese neighbors because they fear a violent reaction. Certainly there are extremist living in Lampung, but the truth of the matter is most Lampungese are like these girls – not so scary. If believers would trust and obey God, they would find that more times than not they will be received with kindness, not with violence.

Satan is behind this fearful thinking that keeps believers silent when they alone can share the story that can show people the way to be free of the huge sin debt that they owe to Holy God. Only through the Gospel will the Lampungese people find their way to be restored to God and find the doors of heaven opened to them. It is a terrible thing to remain silent when so much is at stake.

Pray for believers in Lampung to overcome their fears of sharing the Gospel with the Lampungese.

Pray for workers to be faithful to mentor believers so that they can experience sharing with the Lampungese.

Pray for the Holy Spirit to prepare the hearts of the Lampungese to hear and respond with faith to the Gospel message.
