A challenge to pray and fast � to see an abundant harvest among the Fulani

The Sokoto Fulani team vision:

It is our vision to see individual Fulani and their families come to faith in Christ, to grow in and share that faith with others, which will result in indigenous, maturing and rapidly multiplying churches among the Sokoto Fulani.

 

We want a Church Planting Movement (CPM) to take place among the Sokoto.  So, what is a CPM?  One Fulani church planting another Fulani church, which plants 2, which plants 4, 8� rapidly!  Right now, in one Fulani village there are about 15 believers and in another there are 4.

 

Understanding that, are you ready for our challenge?

 

For the months of September and October, we are challenging you to pray and fast that a CPM will happen among the Fulani.  We want you to pray expectantly, knowing that we serve a faithful, all-powerful God, who wants the Fulani to know him.  He answers the prayers of His people.  We look forward to sharing with you how he has answered all of our prayers at the end of October � harvestime.

 

At this time in Niger, the people are working the fields because it is rainy season and they are waiting for the harvest.  Just as God will allow the people to reap a harvest of millet in this land, he is also preparing a harvest of the Fulani.  In a couple months time, the Fulani will indeed reap a harvest of millet.  It is our prayer and the purpose of this challenge that at the same time, there will be a great harvest of people rapidly coming to Christ, resulting in a Church Planting Movement.

 

Pray that the Holy Spirit will pour down on this land, drawing the people to God.  We are confident that the only way a CPM can take place in this land is by the power of God. 

 

Pray that the Holy Spirit will light a fire in the believers so that they will boldly share their faith with their families, friends, neighbors, enemies, � everyone.

 

Pray that the believers will fully comprehend how all-encompassing faith in Christ is.

 

Pray that they will realize they have the authority and power of God, through the Holy Spirit to share with people (Acts 1:8).

 

Pray that God will break down all the cultural barriers that keep the Fulani from accepting God�s gift of salvation.

 

Pray for Fulani men and women to understand that women can and must make individual decisions to follow Christ.
