Pray for rocks to be removed by the power of God so that Gospel seeds may be sown in millions of Japanese hearts.
During my initial term serving overseas in SE Asia for 3 months, my team leader told us something I've never forgotten. She said, "Before we can plant seeds often we need to remove rocks so that gospel seeds may be sown in hearts."
I have seen that time and again in Japan, where there are so many barriers to gospel seeds being sown, and so this important work, by the grace of God, of removing rocks is essential so that seeds may be sown.
Let us pray for God to open Japanese people's hearts to even be open to questioning their long-held beliefs and/or traditions, and may the Lord use his laborers to be ready to answer questions and to give a reason for the hope that is within them.
We ask all these things in Jesus's might Name. Amen.
