Day 4 – The Road to HCMC

October 4, 2021 by prayer Leave a Comment

Day 4 – 4 of 10.

Roadblock – Ignorance of the Gospel. Many in the city have simply never heard. They’ve never had someone explain to them God’s righteousness, God’s love, and God’s offer of hope and salvation through faith in Jesus Christ. Some may have a minimal awareness of Christianity, but it’s often heavily influenced by inaccurate portrayals in media or lies promoted by other religions or cultural traditions that oppose Christianity.

“Pray also for me, that whenever I speak, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains. Pray that I may declare it fearlessly as I should.” Ephesians 6:19-20

Pray for Believers in the city to be faithful and bold in openly sharing their testimony and the Gospel of Jesus Christ with their family, friends, and co-workers. Pray that Believers will be consistent in living righteous lives that point others to God and remain steadfast in Scripture so that they are always prepared to give a reason for the hope they have in Christ. 

Internet and social media usage are very high in the city with abundant access to wifi and relatively inexpensive data for smartphones. This provides a tremendous opportunity to share the Gospel and Biblical content with people in the city.

Pray for the effective use of websites and social media channels to clearly explain the Gospel to the lost. Pray for advertisements on social media and the web to draw in those who are genuinely seeking to know more about God and provide a starting point for relationships with Believers who can help them on their journey to Christ. Pray for those Believers who monitor and respond to those reached through these media channels to have wisdom and discernment and be led by the Holy Spirit in their responses.

Pray for efforts of churches and Believers to “meet people where they are” through events, activities and seminars that open the door to Gospel conversations. Even during the current pandemic and resulting lock down restricting movement in the city, pray for opportunities to gather together groups of people online around common interests or classes which can build relationships and provide the opportunity for multiple conversations where the Good News of Jesus Christ can be shared.

Motorbikes and motorcycles abound in Saigon. One o Motorbikes and motorcycles abound in Saigon. One of the latest statistics shows there are over 8 million motorbikes in the city, and Vietnamese love their modes of transportation.

There are many reasons why people love--even worship their possessions. Idolatry leads to blindness and people cannot see what they are doing.

"Those who love money will never have enough. How meaningless to think that wealth brings true happiness!" Ecclesiastes 5:10

As more and more people become affluent, ask God to pierce hearts and take off blinders that keep them from loving and worshipping Him. #pray4vietnam

Found in a small green area, this altar is set up Found in a small green area, this altar is set up for people who may desire shade and rest from the sun but are left empty because only the One True God can give rest and relief. Pray that Jehovah God will be found to those seeking help. #pray4vietnam

God is Jehovah. The name of the independent, self-complete being— “I AM WHO I AM”—only belongs to Jehovah God. Our proper response to Him is to fall down in fear and awe of the One who possesses all authority. 
 
“Then Moses said to God, “If I come to the people of Israel and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent me to you,' and they ask me, ‘What is his name?' what shall I say to them?” god said to Moses, “I am who I am.” And he said, “Say this to the people of Israel: ‘I am has sent me to you.'” God also said to Moses, “Say this to the people of Israel: ‘The Lord, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you.' This is my name forever, and thus I am to be remembered throughout all generations.” —Exodus 3:13-15

Baskets filled with fruits and other food items ar Baskets filled with fruits and other food items are a wonderful gift for the lunar new year.

During the days of the lunar new year, it is customary to visit a good number of family and friends. As Vietnamese believers visit and share with non-believing family and friends, please ask the Holy Spirit to go before them to give them opportunities and boldness to share their story of Jesus; pray for believers to have God's word to say as well. #pray4vietnam

“And now we testify and proclaim to you that He is the One who is eternal life. He was with the Father, and then He was revealed to us. We proclaim to you what we ourselves have actually seen and heard so that you may have fellowship with us, and our fellowship is with the Father and with His Son, Jesus Christ. We are writing these things so that you may fully share our joy.” 1 John 1:2-5

Dressing up in a special ao dai (traditional dress Dressing up in a special ao dai (traditional dress) and taking photos with blooming hoa mai flower trees (apricot) in the south of Vietnam is a loved tradition for families and friends.

Gathering for several days, a week or more to eat, rest, and enjoy are the blessings of God. 

“Also that everyone should eat and drink and take pleasure in all His labors---this is God's gift to man.” Ecclesiastes 3:13

God give us your gift of enjoyment as we eat and drink and rest from our work. Holy Spirit work in the hearts of Vietnamese to know this truth. #pray4vietnam

Personalized decorations are painted on envelopes Personalized decorations are painted on envelopes that will contain money for the lunar new year, as well as pre-printed ones.

Lixi are envelopes Vietnamese give to friends, family and acquaintances at the lunar new year that contain lucky money. Money given at the beginning of the new year means a prosperous and lucky year.

As believers, we look and depend on God. “God is our Lord, and abundant in power; His understanding is beyond measure.” Psalm 147:5

We can be sure and not doubt how our year will progress when we trust and look to God. Pray for Vietnamese to hear of our Mighty God during the lunar new year from friends and family believers. #pray4vietnam

In the days approaching the lunar new year, Vietna In the days approaching the lunar new year, Vietnamese enjoy decorations of red and gold for luck and good wishes.

The words imprinted on the gold coin decorations --vạn sự như ý – has the meaning: hope everything is as good as you wish.

"A faithful man will abound with blessings, but whoever hastens to be rich will not go unpunished." Proverbs 28:20
Pray for Vietnamese to find blessings as they put their faith in the One True God. #pray4vietnam

Amazing Vietnamese artists can be found streetside Amazing Vietnamese artists can be found streetside offering their skills and creativity for lunar new year presents to take back home to family.

Creativity comes from God because He is the Creator. Gifts and abilities are unique to each of us, and they reflect our extraordinary God.

"and He has filled him with the Spirit of God, with skill, with intelligence, with knowledge, and with all craftsmanship to devise artistic designs, to work in gold and silver and bronze, in cutting stones for setting and in carving wood, for work in every skilled craft." Exodus 35:31-33

Praise God for the creativity and abilities of Vietnamese. Pray for Vietnamese to use their artistry for God's glory. #pray4vietnam

Thoughts of heading to hometowns in the countrysid Thoughts of heading to hometowns in the countryside are already on the minds of Vietnamese in the city to visit and celebrate the lunar new year with family.

In a city of 10 million plus people, the familiar and slow pace of hometown is a comfort many Vietnamese enjoy. Urban life holds Vietnamese for jobs and financial resources, and as Saigon begins to empty in the next days and weeks there are opportunities for believers to share their faith with family and friends.

“Those who live in the shelter of the Most High will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty. This I declare about the Lord: He alone is my refuge, my place of safety; He is my God, and I trust Him.” Psalms 91:1-2

Pray for Vietnamese believers to have safe travel to their homes and opportunities to share God's word, their faith, and love family in their actions. #pray4vietnam
