Beja of Northern Africa

(BEE-ja) – In a desert setting along the sea, Ahmed does small jobs around his house and is employed as a caretaker of a larger complex. However, he spends most of his time alone. A few years ago, he was given a Bible, and the Lord worked on his heart as he read. He read with voracity and, with the help of a believer, came to believe that it really was Jesus who died on the cross. However, Ahmed has yet to accept Jesus as his Lord and Savior. Ahmed has recently been watching television. From what’s been presented there, he’s come to the conclusion that if the world would just take care of the earth that we’re entrusted with, then we, as a global community, would all get along. Please pray for Ahmed and others like him who haven’t yet truly trusted in Jesus as their Savior. 1 Kings 18:21 (ESV) says: “How long will you go limping between two different opinions? If the LORD is God, follow him; but if Baal, then follow him.” Please pray 1 Kings 18:37 (ESV) for Ahmed: “Lord, help him to ‘know that you, O LORD, are God, and that you have turned [his heart] back [to you].'”
