We took another major attack on our web site last week. It actually shut us down for awhile. Apologies to those of you who may have attempted to visit the web site and found a message indicating we were temporarily down. I don\u2019t know if these attacks are satanic or just the result of a deranged individual who has nothing better to do than hack into web sites. We do know that it was intentional. In the midst of correcting and repairing it, our web host, who lives in the greater Houston area was hit by Hurricane Ike. I have no desire to make this repeated hacking a larger issue than it is, nor do I wish to spiritualize it. I do want to approach it as we all need to approach difficulties that frustrate and hinder the work we are attempting to do. When Satan was attempting to thwart the witness of Job, he accused God of making a \u201chedge around him\u201d (Job 1:10) to protect him from demonic onslaughts. Sometimes God protects us and sometimes He allows us to be hindered in order that we might be strengthened in the faith. I am asking you to join me in praying a hedge of protection around this web site ministry. Ask God to either use the technology that He created or use His miraculous power to prevent further attacks on our web site. The purpose statement of Disciple All Nations is \u201cenhancing on-going ministry through equipping, encouraging and interceding.\u201d That is difficult to do when under attack. So as you join me in interceding for the following global concerns this week, please also intercede for the Disciple All Nations web site and for our web attacker that he or she might find some more worthy purpose in life than hacking into web sites. As always, your comments are appreciated.
\n\u2022 From a missionary in Ukraine: \u201cPray for strength and safety for the people serving the Georgians during this critical time of need. God is using a church in Gori to feed many of these displaced people. This is a ripe time for ministry and for people to see Jesus in the lives of Christians!! Pray for the people of Georgia and that they will turn to God.\u201d
\n\u2022 From a missionary in Brazil: \u201cPray for rest and relaxation in my schedule. Thank you for your prayers. You really are the force behind the issues we face day in and day out so please do not stop praying.
\n\u2022 From missionaries in Uganda: \u201cGod has been opening some incredible doors for ministry. Please pray as we narrow our focus to refugees in Kampala, and two projects in Eastern Uganda.
\n\u2022 Pray for the young daughter of a pastor friend in Canada. She has been suffering from nightmares. During an intense season of prayer, the frequency of nightmares has dropped considerably. Let\u2019s keep praying until they disappear completely.
\n\u2022 Pray for those in the Caribbean and along the Texas and Louisiana coast who have been hit by Hurricane Ike.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
