Dear Friends
We trust you have had a blessed start to 2014 and that you will know the Lord’s provision and His
greatness in ministry, in the year ahead.
Heb 5v7 says, “During the days of Jesus’ life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions with loud
cries and tears to the one who could save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverent
submission”. Heb 4v16 encourages us to, “Approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we
may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.” Because of the death and
resurrection of Christ we have the confidence to know that God is not only able to help but is listening
to our prayers. As we bring our requests and petitions, as well as those of others, before almighty
God, let us pray as Jesus did.
God bless, Africa by Radio Steering Committee
