THE GAMBIA, WEST AFRICA

The government of the Gambia cut its diplomatic relations with Iran in November 2010 after 13 containers of Iranian weapons were discovered en route to the Gambia. The weapons were under the supervision of members of the Al Quds Force (an Iranian group that organizes acts of terrorism). "Gambia believes Iran was trying to help overthrow the Gambian government."

Pray for the safety of this nation and give thanks for the capture of these weapons before they could be received and used.

Ask the Lord to give the government of the Gambia wisdom in defending against future threats.

Pray for His plans and purposes for this tiny African nation to be fulfilled.

Invite the Kingdom of God to come with such glory that all of West Africa comes to faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord.
