-Turkey has begun to offer a fifth dose of the COVID-19 booster shots for certain groups of people. Due to the outbreak of the Omicron variant of the virus, all countries have prioritized administering vaccine boosters for all.
-Pray that the vaccine can produce antibodies in the human body; so that the body can fight the virus and prevent more severe symptoms.
-Pray that vaccine developers can develop vaccines that can effectively stop the virus. Pray that analysts can evaluate the effectiveness and function of vaccines from the available data, and provide useful information for nations to fight the pandemic.
2) Family life:
-Harmony in the family does not happen naturally; but it requires careful management and cultivation in order for families to enjoy a good family life.
-Pray, no matter what status you hold within the home (as parents, children, etc.), try your best to treat your family members with the love of Jesus Christ, so that love can fill the home and meet the needs of each family member.
-Pray that Christians can lead by example at home: by demonstrating good testimonies to others, influencing how others think about or view the family unit (especially non-believers), and lead family members to the Lord.
3) Faith:
-After the epidemic, has the believer’s spiritual life grown or stagnated?
-Let us give thanks that churches everywhere are now open. And, that members can return to the church to worship, as long as members follow the Pandemic SOPs (wear masks, social distancing, etc).
-Pray that as we have experienced the harshness of the pandemic that we should learn to cherish the opportunity to worship together in-person even more. Let us seize the opportunity to grow in our wisdom and knowledge of the Truth, pray earnestly, and strengthen our faith in the Lord.
4) Flood disaster:
-Fire and water are merciless. The floods in West Malaysia (especially in the west coast) has caused severe flood damage in many places, affecting the lives of the people, and destroying their homes.
-Pray for the flood to recede soon, so that the victims can go home to clean and re-establish a comfortable home.
-Recently, soldiers have also joined in the disaster relief efforts. Pray that as more people join the effort that the number of casualties can be minimized, and disaster relief works can be carried out effectively.
