Pray for the Okinawans and Japanese

[jbpichu]

Hey guys. This is the week of Obon, and please pray for our Okinawan and Japanese brothers and sisters. Pray that God would fill them up with His Holy Spirit, that He would empower them to witness to their friends and family. Also pray that the Okinawans and Japanese who are not Christian would have their eyes, ears, and hearts opened to the truth; and that signs, miracles and wonders would follow the proclamation of God's Word to the Okinawans and Japanese. This is a time when the forces of darkness try to wreak havoc, but let us all agree in prayer to be spiritual warriors and to intercede for those who can't reach God's throne. Let's bear the armor for those who have trouble bearing theirs as well.

Note: If anyone does not know what Obon is, message me if you want and I'll give you a brief explanation of what it is. I won't put it here in the open, just because some may be offended.

I've been into japanese tradition since I was little, and I really got into basically everything Japanese, isn't Obon the festival of lanterns, or something? Where they light candles and put them on a little boat or something that floats, and lets them float off. It's a buddhist tradition. It's interesting that the Japanese are so spiritually minded, their not in truth, but they are seeking some sort of truth, I think those are the hearts that the Lord can really get ahold of, people who are searching. [: I believe the Lord can do all things, including getting hold of peoples hearts during this festival, I'll pray dear brother.

Tell me if I'm saying this correctly, Kami no megumu? Or Kami megumu? Or maybe I'm just saying it wrong altogether, I'm sorry. Japan is very beautiful maybe we can talk sometime! God bless ^ Haha

Well it does involve lanterns, but there's more to it.

Standing with you in your prayer. I have found the Japanese to be such gracious people, naturally.
