DO YOU remember the last time you experienced sorrow, rejection or frustration while following Christ?

Those serving in First Nations ministry often suffer wrongfully, at the hands of relatives, friends and strangers outside of Christ, as well as other Believers, leaving them hurt, misunderstood and broken at our Father’s feet.

TODAY, I INVITE YOU to pray with me that our Native people and those serving in Native Ministry, who endure pain for doing good, will be revived.

1 Peter 2:19-21 says "God will bless you, even if others treat you unfairly for being loyal to him. You don’t gain anything by being punished for some wrong you have done. But God will bless you, if you have to suffer for doing something good. After all, God chose you to suffer as you follow in the footsteps of Christ, who set and example by suffering for you."

Ask our Creator to bless and encourage our First Nations people and those serving in Native Ministry, who endure suffering while serving Him.

ADDITIONAL SCRIPTURES (4 translations: The Scriptures, CEV, Amplified, KJV):
"The Scriptures" is a translation that includes the original Hebrew names and has the books in chronological order.  The Contemporary English Version (CEV) is a translation that is written for 'oral tradition' peoples and it flows well while reading it aloud.  The Amplified version is one where meanings of words and phrases are 'amplified' for better understanding.  The King James Version (KJV) is the translation that works well with Strong's Concordance.
