Prayers for Peacemakers, June 18, 2014

The Iraqi Kurdistan team writes, “As
violent struggles continue for control of key Iraqi cities, Kurdistan focuses
on power and security. With the conflict unfolding, and our work with partners
locked in land struggles with oil companies continuing, your support and
prayers are appreciated for our team and for peace for the Iraqi and Kurdish
people.”

 

Epixel for June 22, 2014

With your faithful help rescue me from sinking in the mire;
let me be delivered from my enemies
and from the deep
waters. Do not let the flood sweep over me, or the deep
swallow me up, or the Pit
close its mouth over me.
Psalm 69:13-15
