Prayer starter

Sing to the Lord, all the earth! Tell of his salvation from day to day. Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous works among all the peoples! For great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised, and he is to be feared above all gods. For all the gods of the peoples are worthless idols, but the Lord made the heavens. - 1 Chronicles 16:23-26

Our God, you are the only God. You are great, and greatly to be praised. I ask that you break the bondage of idolatry of those in Manama that do not know you. Make them see that all other gods are only idols, that you alone are the living God. Let your church in Manama be a shining light there, give them insight in you and words and opportunities to share about you and your glory.
