Pray that Fulani Christians will have boldness and wisdom as they share the gospel with Fulani Muslims. May they continue to entrust everything they have and even their lives to God, seeing it as meaningless in comparison with the joy of knowing Christ and sharing Him with others (Acts 20:24). Ask God to encourage them to keep their eyes on Jesus, persevere in their faith, and not grow weary or lose heart (Hebrews 10:32-39; Hebrews 12:1-3).
