The Holy Spirit spoke clearly, setting apart Barnabas and Saul for the work He had prepared. When we seek God together with willing hearts, He reveals His purposes and sends His people - often to places and peoples they would never have chosen themselves.<\/p>\n<h3>Testimony: Called from the Sahel Bush<\/h3>\n<p>Tambaya Ibrahim was born in 1974, during a devastating famine that swept Niger. He grew up in the Sahel bush, knowing nothing except cattle herding. As a child he never visited a town. Women and children stayed in the bush while the men occasionally went to market. The Fulani world was his whole world.<\/p>\n<p>At his birth, his father was visited by Malaam T \u2014 a Christian friend \u2014 who came to offer customary greetings and asked to pray for the newborn. He prayed that God would have His hand on this child\u2019s life. Tambaya\u2019s father later came to Christ through that same friendship.<\/p>\n<p>But Tambaya\u2019s own early years were troubled. Demonic nightmares plagued him. It was only when he encountered Jesus \u2014 and experienced both salvation and deliverance \u2014 that the darkness lifted. He learned to read and write. A pastor noticed his passion and encouraged him to go to Bible school. He spent four years at a Fulani Bible school in Benin.<\/p>\n<p>Today Tambaya travels across Niger preaching the Gospel to his own people \u2014 a people among whom fewer than 1% follow Christ. He directs the only Fulani Bible school in Niger and helps translate the Old Testament into Fulfulde, the language of the Fulani. His life is a living answer to the prayer spoken over him the day he was born.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGod has called me,\u201d he says, \u201cto reach Fulani who had never heard the habaru beldum \u2014 the sweet news.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHow beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!\u201d (Romans 10:15)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/jwipn.com\/courageous-calling\/\">Read more\u2026<\/a><\/p>\n"},{"key":"pfa_content_2","label":"PFA Content 2","value":"<h3>Let us pray<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Pray for attentive listening to the Holy Spirit for Kingdom strategies and action.<\/li>\n<li>Pray for spiritual confirmation through prayer and fasting.<\/li>\n<li>Pray for young people to answer God\u2019s call to ministry and mission.<\/li>\n<li>Pray for believers to serve in Bible translation so every language receives Scripture.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Step Out<\/h3>\n<p><strong><em>Ask God to confirm one specific step of mission obedience today.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n"},{"key":"pfa_map_photo","label":"PFA Map Photo","value":"https:\/\/110cities.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Map-Box-09.jpg"},{"key":"pfa_content_3","label":"PFA Content 3","value":"<h3>REGION: Southeast Asia<\/h3>\n<p><strong>110 Cities Focus <a href=\"https:\/\/110cities.com\/cities\/jakarta\/\">Jakarta<\/a>; <a href=\"https:\/\/110cities.com\/cities\/surabaya\/\">Surabaya<\/a>; <a href=\"https:\/\/110cities.com\/cities\/bandung\/\">Bandung<\/a>; <a href=\"https:\/\/110cities.com\/cities\/medan\/\">Medan<\/a>; <a href=\"https:\/\/110cities.com\/cities\/makassar\/\">Makassar<\/a>; <a href=\"https:\/\/110cities.com\/cities\/banjarmasin\/\">Banjarmasin<\/a>; <a href=\"https:\/\/110cities.com\/cities\/bangkok\/\">Bangkok<\/a>; <a href=\"https:\/\/110cities.com\/cities\/ha-noi\/\">Hanoi<\/a>; <a href=\"https:\/\/110cities.com\/cities\/ho-chi-minh-city\/\">Ho Chi Minh<\/a>; <a href=\"https:\/\/110cities.com\/cities\/phnom-penh\/\">Phnom Penh<\/a>; <a href=\"https:\/\/110cities.com\/cities\/yangon\/\">Yangon<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>Unreached Peoples Focus (in\/near these cities):<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Pray for God to move across Southeast Asia through these vibrant and rapidly growing cities.<\/li>\n<li>Ask the Lord to draw many people who are searching for truth to encounter Jesus Christ personally, and to strengthen believers to live with wisdom, compassion, and courage.<\/li>\n<li>Pray that the Gospel would spread through families, universities, workplaces, and new generations, bringing hope, freedom, and lasting transformation throughout the region.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Frontier People Group Focus:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Pray for the <a href=\"https:\/\/joshuaproject.net\/people_groups\/14776\/ID\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sasak<\/a> people of Indonesia, especially on Lombok, that God would reveal Himself in ways that are clear and deeply personal.<\/li>\n<li>Ask the Lord to raise up humble and loving witnesses who can share the message of Jesus in culturally meaningful ways.<\/li>\n<li>Pray that through relationships, hospitality, and the power of Scripture, many would encounter Christ, experience His peace, and see communities transformed by His grace.<\/li>\n<li>Watch this video about Sasak here.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Facts &amp; Figures<\/h3>\n<p>Indonesia is home to the world\u2019s largest Muslim population: 230 million.<\/p>\n<h3>More info About:<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/prayercast.com\/prayer-topic\/indonesia\/\">Indonesia<\/a><\/p>\n"},{"key":"pfa_pray_photo","label":"PFA Pray Photo","value":false}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/110cities.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/power-from-above\/5800","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/110cities.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/power-from-above"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/110cities.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/power-from-above"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/110cities.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5795"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/110cities.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5800"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
