Gids voor boeddhistische gebeden 2026

In an all-women’s discipleship group, Norah suggested it was time for the group to host a communion celebration together.  In recent days, four of the ladies had professed faith, and three were baptised.  Mai-yu has held off on receiving baptism due to family pressures and is an elder relative of two of the others. The three others were excited to participate in the ceremony.

The ladies gathered for their weekly time in the Word, and the communion elements were set out and ready.  As they began the communion celebration, a young man, Tin Win, came into the room. Upon entering, he immediately knew what was happening.  Tin Win comes from the Karen tribe and has a long family history in the church, although in recent years his time has been taken up with work and drinking.  Embarrassed, Tin Win said he could not partake because his church had forbidden him due to his sin.  He was convicted because these new believers were ready to receive, and he was not.  His Buddhist neighbours were pursuing their relationship with Jesus because an expatriate woman had been consistently loving these ladies into a genuine faith and relationship with the Lord Jesus.  Now Tin Win wants to change his life, stop drinking and become an evangelist.

Laten we bidden

• Pray that God will equip the Myanmar Church with a vision to reach out to the majority Buddhist Bamar, Rakhine, and Mon people groups. Thank God that there are a few ministries focused on reaching the core Buddhists who are seeing fruit.  Pray that they will be successful in equipping leaders who are fruitful at equipping other leaders until there is a church in every corner of the Bamar people in Myanmar.
• Pray that the ladies of this discipleship group will be effective at reaching their extended families. Pray that Tin Win acts on his new conviction, and in a similar fashion, the Church across Myanmar would awaken and reach its nation.
