Allotment for Ephraim and Manasseh

1 (Jos 8:15; 18:12) The allotment of land for the descendants of Joseph 
was from the Jordan by Jericho then east into the wilderness, 
rising from Jericho to the hill country of Bethel.
2 (Jos 18:13; Ge 28:19) It goes out from Bethel to Luz and passes
to the border of Arkite territory at Ataroth. 
3 (Jos 10:33; 18:13) It goes down westward to the territory 
of the Japhletites, to the border of lower Beth Horon and Gezer, 
and then goes out to the sea.
4 (Jos 17:14) So the descendants of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim,
took their inheritance.
5 (Jos 18:13) The territory of the Ephraimites, according to their clans, 
was as follows. The border of their inheritance on the east was Ataroth 
Addar as far as upper Beth Horon. 
6 (Jos 17:7) The border goes out toward the sea with Mikmethath 
on the north. It turns eastward toward Taanath Shiloh and passes it 
on the east toward Janoah. 
7 (1Ch 7:28) It descends from Janoah to Ataroth and to Naarah,
touches Jericho, and extends to the Jordan. 
8 (Jos 17:8-9) From Tappuah the border goes west to the Kanah Ravine 
and out to the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the Ephraimites
according to their clans.
9 The other cities for the Ephraimites were in the middle of the inheritance 
of the descendants of Manasseh, all the cities and their villages.
10 (Jdg 1:29; 1Ki 9:16) They did not drive out the Canaanites who lived
in Gezer, so the Canaanites live in the midst of Ephraim until this day 
performing heavy labor as slaves.

Joshua 16
[1] And the lot of the children of Joseph fell from Jordan by Jericho, unto
the water of Jericho on the east, to the wilderness that goeth up from
Jericho throughout mount Bethel,
[2] And goeth out from Bethel to Luz, and passeth along unto the borders of
Archi to Ataroth,
[3] And goeth down westward to the coast of Japhleti, unto the coast of
Beth-horon the nether, and to Gezer: and the goings out thereof are at the
sea.
[4] So the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance.
[5] And the border of the children of Ephraim according to their families
was thus: even the border of their inheritance on the east side was
Ataroth-addar, unto Beth-horon the upper;
[6] And the border went out toward the sea to Michmethah on the north side;
and the border went about eastward unto Taanath-shiloh, and passed by it on
the east to Janohah;
[7] And it went down from Janohah to Ataroth, and to Naarath, and came to
Jericho, and went out at Jordan.
[8] The border went out from Tappuah westward unto the river Kanah; and the
goings out thereof were at the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of
the children of Ephraim by their families.
[9] And the separate cities for the children of Ephraim were among the
inheritance of the children of Manasseh, all the cities with their villages.
[10] And they drave not out the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer: but the
Canaanites dwell among the Ephraimites unto this day, and serve under
tribute. 

JOSHUA 17

1 (Ge 41:51; Nu 26:29) Then allotment was made to the tribe of Manasseh,
for he was the firstborn of Joseph. To Makir the firstborn of Manasseh, 
the father of Gilead, were allotted Gilead and Bashan, 
because he was a warrior.
2 (Nu 26:29-32; 1Ch 7:18) And allotments were made 
to the rest of the tribe of Manasseh, according to their families: 
Abiezer, Helek, Asriel, Shechem, Hepher, and Shemida; 
these were the male descendants of Manasseh son of Joseph, according 
to their families.
3 (Nu 26:33; 27:1) Yet Zelophehad, son of Hepher, son of Gilead, 
son of Makir, son of Manasseh had no sons, only daughters. 
These were his daughters' names: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milkah, and Tirzah. 
4 (Jos 14:1) They approached Eleazar the priest, Joshua son of Nun,
 and the leaders, saying, "The Lord commanded Moses to give us an inheritance
 among our relatives." So Joshua gave them an inheritance among their fathers'
relatives according to the word of the Lord. 
5 Therefore Manasseh received ten regions, apart from the lands of Gilead 
and Bashan on the east side of the Jordan, 
6 because the daughters of Manasseh 
received an inheritance among his sons, and the rest of the people of Manasseh
received the land of Gilead.
7 (Jos 21:21) The boundary of Manasseh was from Asher to Mikmethath 
east of Shechem, and it runs south toward the inhabitants of En Tappuah. 
8 (Jos 16:8) Now Manasseh owned the land of Tappuah, but Tappuah 
on the border of Manasseh belonged to the Ephraimites.
9 Then the border descended to the Kanah Ravine, southward to the brook. 
These cities of Ephraim are among the cities of Manasseh. 
The border of Manasseh was on the north side of the brook, 
and it ended at the sea. 
10 The land belonging to Ephraim was to the south, 
and the land belonging to Manasseh to the north. 
The Mediterranean Sea was the boundary of this territory, 
which bordered Asher in the north and Issachar in the east.
11 (1Ch 7:29; Jos 12:23) In Issachar and Asher, Manasseh was
assigned districts: Beth Shan, Ibleam, Dor, Endor, Taanach, 
Megiddo, Naphoth, and their respective villages.
12 (Jdg 1:27-28) Yet the sons of Manasseh could not take possession 
of those cities, because the Canaanites were determined to live in that land. 
13 (Jos 16:10) But when the children of Israel became strong, they put 
the Canaanites to hard labor as slaves, 
but they did not actually drive them out.
14 (Ge 48:19; 48:22) The descendants of Joseph said to Joshua, 
"Why have you assigned us a single allotment, a single portion? 
We are a numerous people, as the Lord has blessed us."
15 (Ge 14:5) Joshua said to them, "If you are a numerous people, 
go up to the forests and clear out a place there for yourselves 
in the land of the Perizzites and the giants, 
since the hill country of Ephraim is too small for you."
16 (Jdg 1:19; 4:3) The descendants of Joseph said, 
"The hill country is not enough for us, and all the Canaanites 
living in the plains have iron chariots, both those
 in Beth Shan and the Jezreel Valley."
17 Joshua said to Ephraim and Manasseh, the descendants of Joseph,
"You are a numerous people who have great strength. There will not 
be only one allotment for you. 
18 The hill country shall be yours. Although it is a forest you shall 
clear it and own it to its borders. You shall drive out the Canaanites, 
even though they have iron chariots and are strong."

Joshua 17
[1] There was also a lot for the tribe of Manasseh; for he was the firstborn
of Joseph; to wit, for Machir the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of
Gilead: because he was a man of war, therefore he had Gilead and Bashan.
[2] There was also a lot for the rest of the children of Manasseh by their
families; for the children of Abiezer, and for the children of Helek, and
for the children of Asriel, and for the children of Shechem, and for the
children of Hepher, and for the children of Shemida: these were the male
children of Manasseh the son of Joseph by their families.
[3] But Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir,
the son of Manasseh, had no sons, but daughters: and these are the names of
his daughters, Mahlah, and Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
[4] And they came near before Eleazar the priest, and before Joshua the son
of Nun, and before the princes, saying, The LORD commanded Moses to give us
an inheritance among our brethren. Therefore according to the commandment of
the LORD he gave them an inheritance among the brethren of their father.
[5] And there fell ten portions to Manasseh, beside the land of Gilead and
Bashan, which were on the other side Jordan;
[6] Because the daughters of Manasseh had an inheritance among his sons: and
the rest of Manasseh's sons had the land of Gilead.
[7] And the coast of Manasseh was from Asher to Michmethah, that lieth
before Shechem; and the border went along on the right hand unto the
inhabitants of En-tappuah.
[8] Now Manasseh had the land of Tappuah: but Tappuah on the border of
Manasseh belonged to the children of Ephraim;
[9] And the coast descended unto the river Kanah, southward of the river:
these cities of Ephraim are among the cities of Manasseh: the coast of
Manasseh also was on the north side of the river, and the outgoings of it
were at the sea:
[10] Southward it was Ephraim's, and northward it was Manasseh's, and the
sea is his border; and they met together in Asher on the north, and in
Issachar on the east.
[11] And Manasseh had in Issachar and in Asher Beth-shean and her towns, and
Ibleam and her towns, and the inhabitants of Dor and her towns, and the
inhabitants of Endor and her towns, and the inhabitants of Taanach and her
towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and her towns, even three countries.
[12] Yet the children of Manasseh could not drive out the inhabitants of
those cities; but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.
[13] Yet it came to pass, when the children of Israel were waxen strong,
that they put the Canaanites to tribute; but did not utterly drive them out.
[14] And the children of Joseph spake unto Joshua, saying, Why hast thou
given me but one lot and one portion to inherit, seeing I am a great people,
forasmuch as the LORD hath blessed me hitherto?
[15] And Joshua answered them, If thou be a great people, then get thee up
to the wood country, and cut down for thyself there in the land of the
Perizzites and of the giants, if mount Ephraim be too narrow for thee.
[16] And the children of Joseph said, The hill is not enough for us: and all
the Canaanites that dwell in the land of the valley have chariots of iron,
both they who are of Beth-shean and her towns, and they who are of the
valley of Jezreel.
[17] And Joshua spake unto the house of Joseph, even to Ephraim and to
Manasseh, saying, Thou art a great people, and hast great power: thou shalt
not have one lot only:
[18] But the mountain shall be thine; for it is a wood, and thou shalt cut
it down: and the outgoings of it shall be thine: for thou shalt drive out
the Canaanites, though they have iron chariots, and though they be strong.

JOSHUA 18

Dividing the Rest of the Land

1 (Jos 19:51; 21:2) The whole congregation of the children of Israel 
assembled at Shiloh and set up the tent of meeting there. 
The land was subdued before them.
2 Yet seven tribes among the children of Israel remained 
who had not yet received their inheritance.
3 (Jdg 18:9) So Joshua said to the children of Israel, "How long will you
delay going in to possess the land that the Lord, the God of your fathers,
 has given you? 
4 Select three men from each tribe, and I will send them out; 
and they will rise and go throughout the land, and describe it 
according to their inheritance, and they will come back to me. 
5 They shall divide it into seven portions. Judah will stay in their 
territory in the south, and the house of Joseph will stay in their 
territory in the north.
6 (Jos 14:2; 18:10) So describe the land in seven portions and return to me. 
Then I will cast lots for you here before the Lord our God. 
7 (Jos 13:33; Nu 18:20) Yet there is no portion for the Levites among you,
for the priesthood of the Lord is their inheritance. Gad, Reuben, 
and the half-tribe of Manasseh have acquired their inheritance 
on the east side of the Jordan, 
which Moses the servant of the Lord gave them."
8 So the men got up and left. Joshua commanded those who were
leaving to survey the land, saying, "Go and walk back and forth 
throughout the land. Write a description of it, then return to me. 
Here in Shiloh I will cast lots for you before the Lord."
9 The men went and passed through the land. In a book they wrote
a description of it by cities in seven portions, and they came back to Joshua 
at the Shiloh settlement. 
10 (Jos 18:6) Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before the Lord. 
There Joshua apportioned the land for the children of Israel 
according to their divisions.

[1] And the whole congregation of the children of Israel assembled together
at Shiloh, and set up the tabernacle of the congregation there. And the land
was subdued before them.
[2] And there remained among the children of Israel seven tribes, which had
not yet received their inheritance.
[3] And Joshua said unto the children of Israel, How long are ye slack to go
to possess the land, which the LORD God of your fathers hath given you?
[4] Give out from among you three men for each tribe: and I will send them,
and they shall rise, and go through the land, and describe it according to
the inheritance of them; and they shall come again to me.
[5] And they shall divide it into seven parts: Judah shall abide in their
coast on the south, and the house of Joseph shall abide in their coasts on
the north.
[6] Ye shall therefore describe the land into seven parts, and bring the
description hither to me, that I may cast lots for you here before the LORD
our God.
[7] But the Levites have no part among you; for the priesthood of the LORD
is their inheritance: and Gad, and Reuben, and half the tribe of Manasseh,
have received their inheritance beyond Jordan on the east, which Moses the
servant of the LORD gave them.
[8] And the men arose, and went away: and Joshua charged them that went to
describe the land, saying, Go and walk through the land, and describe it,
and come again to me, that I may here cast lots for you before the LORD in
Shiloh.
[9] And the men went and passed through the land, and described it by cities
into seven parts in a book, and came again to Joshua to the host at Shiloh.
[10] And Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before the LORD: and there
Joshua divided the land unto the children of Israel according to their
divisions.

The Allotment for Benjamin
11 The lot of the tribe of Benjamin, according to their clans, came up. 
The territory allotted to it fell between Judah and Joseph.
12 (Jos 16:1; 7:2) Their northern border goes from the Jordan up 
the northern slope of Jericho. It runs westward into the hill country 
and extends to the wilderness of Beth Aven. 
13 (Ge 28:19; Jos 16:2-3) The border passes from there southward 
toward Luz, to the slope of Luz (that is, Bethel), and descends to Ataroth 
Addar on the hill south of lower Beth Horon.
14 (Jos 15:9) On the western side, the border turns south from the hill 
that lies to the south near Beth Horon, and it extends to Kiriath Baal
(that is, Kiriath Jearim), a city belonging to Judah. 
This is the western border.
15 (Jos 15:9) The southern border starts from Kiriath Jearim 
and goes out westward to the spring of the waters of Nephtoah. 
16 (2Ki 23:10; Jos 15:7-8) The border then descends to the foot 
of the mountain that lies by the Valley of Ben Hinnom, which is 
at the north end of the Valley of Rephaim. It descends from 
the Hinnom Valley to the slope of the Jebusites, then down to En Rogel. 
17 (Jos 15:6) The border runs north and goes out to En Shemesh and Geliloth, 
which is opposite the Ascent of Adummim, 
and descends to the Stone of Bohan the son of Reuben. 
18 (Jos 15:6) It passes toward the slope north of the Beth Arabah
and descends to the Arabah. 
19 (Ge 14:3; Jos 15:2) The border passes north of the slope of Beth Hoglah, 
and it runs out to the northern tip of the Dead Sea at the southern 
end of the Jordan. This is the southern border.
20 The Jordan forms the eastern boundary.
This is the inheritance of the tribe of Benjamin, 
according to their clans, by its boundaries all around.
21 (Jos 18:12) The cities belonging to the tribe of Benjamin,
 according to their clans, were Jericho, Beth Hoglah, Emek Keziz, 
22 Beth Arabah, Zemaraim, Bethel, 
23 Avvim, Parah, Ophrah,
24 (Ezr 2:26) Kephar Ammoni, Ophni, and Geba: twelve cities 
with their villages.
25 (Jos 9:17) Also there were Gibeon, Ramah, Beeroth, 
26 Mizpah, Kephirah, Mozah, 
27 Rekem, Irpeel, Taralah, 
28 (Jos 15:8; 2Sa 21:14) Zelah, Haeleph, the Jebusite city 
(that is, Jerusalem), 
Gibeah, and Kiriath: fourteen cities with their villages.
This is the inheritance of the tribe of Benjamin 
according to their clans.

[11] And the lot of the tribe of the children of Benjamin came up according
to their families: and the coast of their lot came forth between the
children of Judah and the children of Joseph.
[12] And their border on the north side was from Jordan; and the border went
up to the side of Jericho on the north side, and went up through the
mountains westward; and the goings out thereof were at the wilderness of
Beth-aven.
[13] And the border went over from thence toward Luz, to the side of Luz,
which is Bethel, southward; and the border descended to Ataroth-adar, near
the hill that lieth on the south side of the nether Beth-horon.
[14] And the border was drawn thence, and compassed the corner of the sea
southward, from the hill that lieth before Beth-horon southward; and the
goings out thereof were at Kirjath-baal, which is Kirjath-jearim, a city of
the children of Judah: this was the west quarter.
[15] And the south quarter was from the end of Kirjath-jearim, and the
border went out on the west, and went out to the well of waters of Nephtoah:
[16] And the border came down to the end of the mountain that lieth before
the valley of the son of Hinnom, and which is in the valley of the giants on
the north, and descended to the valley of Hinnom, to the side of Jebusi on
the south, and descended to En-rogel,
[17] And was drawn from the north, and went forth to En-shemesh, and went
forth toward Geliloth, which is over against the going up of Adummim, and
descended to the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben,
[18] And passed along toward the side over against Arabah northward, and
went down unto Arabah:
[19] And the border passed along to the side of Beth-hoglah northward: and
the outgoings of the border were at the north bay of the salt sea at the
south end of Jordan: this was the south coast.
[20] And Jordan was the border of it on the east side. This was the
inheritance of the children of Benjamin, by the coasts thereof round about,
according to their families.
[21] Now the cities of the tribe of the children of Benjamin according to
their families were Jericho, and Beth-hoglah, and the valley of Keziz,
[22] And Beth-arabah, and Zemaraim, and Bethel,
[23] And Avim, and Parah, and Ophrah,
[24] And Chephar-haammonai, and Ophni, and Gaba; twelve cities with their
villages:
[25] Gibeon, and Ramah, and Beeroth,
[26] And Mizpeh, and Chephirah, and Mozah,
[27] And Rekem, and Irpeel, and Taralah,
[28] And Zelah, Eleph, and Jebusi, which is Jerusalem, Gibeath, and Kirjath;
fourteen cities with their villages. This is the inheritance of the children
of Benjamin according to their families.

Jeremiah 18:1-10

Jeremiah 18

The Potter and the Clay

1 The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying:
2 (Jer 19:1-2) "Arise and go down to the potter's house,
and there I will cause you to hear My words."
3 Then I went down to the potter's house, and there he was making
something on the wheel.
4 Yet the vessel that he made of clay was spoiled in the hand of the potter;
so he made it again into another vessel,
as seemed good to the potter to make it.
5 Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
6 (Isa 64:8; 45:9) O house of Israel, can I not do with you as this potter?
says the Lord. As the clay is in the potter's hand, so are you in My hand,
O house of Israel.
7 (Jer 1:10) At one moment I may speak concerning a nation
and concerning a kingdom to pluck up, and to pull down, and to destroy it.
8 (Jer 26:13; Eze 18:21) If that nation against which I have spoken turns
from its evil, I will relent of the disaster that I thought to do to it.
9 (Jer 1:10; 31:28) Or at another moment I may speak concerning a nation
and concerning a kingdom to build and to plant it.
10 (1Sa 2:30; Eze 33:18) If it does evil in My sight by not obeying My voice,
then I will relent of the good with which I said I would bless it.

Jeremiah 18
[1] The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
[2] Arise, and go down to the potter's house, and there I will cause
thee to hear my words.
[3] Then I went down to the potter's house, and, behold, he wrought a work
on the wheels.
[4] And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the
potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to
make it.
[5] Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
[6] O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? saith the LORD.
Behold, as the clay is in the potter's hand, so are ye in mine hand, O
house of Israel.
[7] At what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a
kingdom, to pluck up, and to pull down, and to destroy it;
[8] If that nation, against whom I have pronounced, turn from their evil, I
will repent of the evil that I thought to do unto them.
[9] And at what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a
kingdom, to build and to plant it;
[10] If it do evil in my sight, that it obey not my voice, then I will
repent of the good, wherewith I said I would benefit them.

Dan Les, a lifelong potter, creates decorative vessels and sculptures. His 
award-winning designs are inspired by the town in Romania where he lives. 
Having learned the craft from his father, he made this comment about his 
work: "[Clay needs to] ferment for a year, to have rain fall on it, 
to freeze and thaw out [so that] . . . you can shape it and feel 
through your hands that it is listening to you."

What happens when clay 'listens'? It's willing to yield to the artisan's 
touch. The prophet Jeremiah observed this when he visited a potter's house. 
He watched as the craftsman struggled with a vessel and finally reshaped 
it into something new (Jeremiah 18:4). God said to Jeremiah, "Like clay 
in the hand of the potter, so are you in my hand" (v. 6).

God has the ability to build us up or bring us down, yet His ultimate 
purpose isn't to overpower or destroy us (vv. 7-10). Rather, He's like 
a skilled craftsman who can identify what isn't working and reshape 
the same lump of clay into something beautiful and useful.

Listening clay doesn't have much to say about this. When prodded, 
it moves in the desired direction. When moulded, it stays in place. 
The question for us is this: are we willing to 
"humble [ourselves] under God's mighty hand" (1 Peter 5:6) 
so He can shape our lives into what He wants them to be?

Reflect & Pray

How are you listening to God today? 
What do you think His purpose is 
for refining you through your life's experiences?

Dear God, please help me to trust You. 
I want to submit my life to You.

Week 8 Guided by Grace Day 4 - Send for Help !

James 1:5

5 (Pr 2:3-6; Jn 15:7) If any of you lacks wisdom,
let him ask of God, who gives to all men liberally
and without criticism, and it will be given to him.

5 If any of you lack wisdom,
let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally,
and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

A new employee in an electronics plant had the responsibility
for overseeing one machine. The machine worked fine when the young man
came on duty, but soon it began to run a bit rough. The employee
tinkered with the machine, trying to "fix" it, until finally if stopped
working altogether
In fear and trembling the worker sent for the foreman, and stammered,
"I - I, well, sir, I did my best to fix it."
"Son", the foreman thundered, "you need to know only one thing. Around
here, doing you best means sending for me!"
Wisdom, James 1:5 says, has its source in God alone. And if we are
to attain wisdom, we need to learn doing our best means sending for God.
Often we spend time tinkering with our lives or the the lives of others.
We don't think to as God for his wisdom in the decisions we must take;
instead, we use our human reasoning and take our best guess.
But the path to wisdom does not lie in guesswork. The scriptures
give us clear indication of God's direction for his people, and through Bible
study, application, prayer, and meditation,
we can understand what God wants to reveal to us.
"If any of you lacks wisdom," James says, "he should ask God, who gives
generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him."
The first step to attaining wisdom is recognising that we are not wise.
The second step is to ask. And God, who is faithful to his Word
and His people, will respond.

Application

a) Under what circumstances have I tinkered with my life,
making it worse rather then fixing it?

b) What practical steps can I take to ask God for wisdom?

4) Prosperity verses from Kenneth Copeland

Deut 8:18

18 But you must remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you
the ability to get wealth, so that He may establish His covenant which
He swore to your fathers, as it is today.

18 But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee
power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto

5) From a Book called God's Promises for you:

When you are lonely

PSALMS 25:15-21

15 My eyes are ever toward the Lord,
for He will lead my feet from the net.
16 Turn to me, and be gracious to me,
for I am isolated and afflicted.
17 The troubles of my heart are enlarged;
bring me out of my distresses.
18 Look on my pain and misery,
and forgive all my sins.
19 Consider my enemies, for they are many,
and they hate me with violent hatred.
20 Watch over my life, and deliver me!
Let me not suffer shame,
for I seek refuge in You.
21 Truth and integrity will preserve me
while I wait for You.

15 Mine eyes are ever toward the LORD;
For he shall pluck my feet out of the net.
16 Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me;
For I am desolate and afflicted.
17 The troubles of my heart are enlarged:
O bring thou me out of my distresses.
18 Look upon mine affliction and my pain;
And forgive all my sins.
19 Consider mine enemies; for they are many;
And they hate me with cruel hatred.
20 O keep my soul, and deliver me:
Let me not be ashamed; for I put my trust in thee.
21 Let integrity and uprightness preserve me;
For I wait on thee.

13 (1Co 10:13; Jn 17:15) And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen."

9 After this manner therefore pray ye: 
Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. 
10 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. 
11 Give us this day our daily bread. 
12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. 
13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: 
For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

Saskatchewan

Quick facts on Muslims in Saskatchewan

Saskatchewan 2015 population  1125400

est Muslim Population       17279

CNMM Networks: Saskatoon

Saskatoon has seen quick growth in its Muslim population over the past
5 years, which maybe as high as 5000 today. Islamic leaders have 
focused specifically on this city , having twice already sent cohorts
of about 70 families to start mosques. There are now 7 Islamic centres
of worship and an Islamic madrassah (school) located right next to a 
Christian school.
Of particular concern recently is the number of young adults who grew up
in evangelical churches and converted to Islam. Most of these are young
women who were wooed by Muslim man and became emotionally bonded. 
Both prior to and after marrying, these women are known to convert to Islam.

Agree in prayer with us for:
- entire congregations and individual believers to catch God's heart
and passion for reaching Muslims in Saskatoon and the other growing
Muslim population centres of Saskatchewan.
- for the eyes and understanding of Canadian youth to be opened to the 
  spiritual reality of Islam, and not deceived nor manipulated into
  converting to a religion which cannot offer assurance of salvation. 
- for the few workers among Muslims now engaged there, and for many more
  to be raised up into effective witness.
- for prayer and training events that are starting in Saskatoon 
  to spread and grow to other cities.

Pray on the Night of Power</a>

Afew years ago, on a previous Night of Power, two believers in Turkey 
were walking and praying along the seafront in Istanbul, asking God 
to speak to Turkish Muslims that night. Nearby, they overheard a couple having
a video phone conversation with one of their mothers: "No, mom, still no baby.
But tonight is the Night of Power and we will be praying all night 
for a miracle."

Laylat al-Qadr, the 'Night of Power' or 'Night of Destiny', is one of the most
sacred events in the Islamic calendar. Believed to be the night when 
the Qur'an was sent into the world and its first verses revealed to Muhammad, 
Muslims believe that prayers and good deeds done on this night are of greater 
value than those done in a thousand months. Some trust in the words 
of Muhammad when he said: "Whoever stands [in prayer] during the Night 
of Power out of belief and seeking reward, his previous sins are forgiven."
(Sahih al-Bukhari 1901) Many Muslims spend the night praying for forgiveness
of sins and reciting the Qur'an.

The exact night of Laylat al-Qadr is debated by Islamic scholars, 
as it is believed to occur on any of the odd numbered days in the last 
ten days of Ramadan. In order to be found faithful on the actual night, 
some Muslims will observe i'tikaf (seclusion) during the last ten days in 
order to focus on reflection, prayer and to avoid involvement in worldly 
affairs.

How to Pray

Pray for Muslims to have miraculous encounters with 
Jesus while praying during the Night of Power. (John 20:30-31)

The Purpose of the Book

30 (Jn 21:25) Jesus performed many other signs in the presence
of His disciples, which are not written in this book.
31 (Jn 3:15-16; 10:10) But these are written that you might believe
that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing
you may have life in His name.

[30] And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciple
which are not written in this book:
[31] But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ,
the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.

Pray for many to have a revelation of the 
forgiveness offered through Jesus. (Titus 3:5)

5 (Ro 12:2; 1Pe 3:21) not by works of righteousness which we have done,
but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of rebirth
and the renewal of the Holy Spirit,

[5] Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his
mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy
Ghost;

Ask God that local Believers and Christian workers 
would have the opportunity to pray in Jesus' name 
for their Muslim friends.

My paternal side is of Muslim heritage and will offer this section to further
call for Muslim converts to Christian and any other converts to Christianity
(Hindus, Jews, aboriginals Canadian, ...) .
