October prayer points
![]() October Focus: Musandam Region Top of the Mountains Musandam (مُـسَـنْـدَم) is the northernmost governorate in Oman, an enclave (2, actually) separated from the rest of the country by the United Arab Emirates. It is a peninsula which sits strategically at the Strait of Hormuz, a mere 21 miles from Iran. Called the 'Norway of Arabia' because of its dramatic fjords, the region is geographically isolated by rugged mountains, and its inhabitants have traditionally been hostile to outsiders. Although growing in tourism, it is still one of the most remote and isolated places in the country. This region is also home to two unique ethnic groups, the Kumzari and the Shehi. In Arabic ‘Musandam’ means ‘anvil’, perhaps referring to its shape. This area is known locally as ‘Ru’us Al Jibal’ (Arabic: رُؤُوْس ٱلْجِبَال), meaning head or top of the mountains, indicating its position at the top of the Hijar Mountains that stretch across northern Oman. “For the Eternal is a great God, and a great King, supreme over all gods. Within His control are the very depths of the earth; the mountaintops too—they all belong to Him. The sea belongs to Him, for He created it—scooped and filled it—with His hands He made the dry land—every valley and mountain.” (Psalm 95:3-5, The Voice) We bless the people of Musandam to know and follow the God who created their unique land!

眾山之巔
穆桑代姆(https://www.google.com/maps/place/%E9%98%BF%E6%9B%BC%E7%A9%86%E6%A1%91%E4%BB%A3%E5%A7%86%E7%9C%81)(مُـسَـنْـدَم)是阿曼最北的省份,是一塊飛地(實際上是兩塊),阿聯酋將此地與該國其他地區隔開。它是一個半島,位於霍爾木茲海峽的戰略要地,距離伊朗僅21英里(34公里)。該行政區因其壯觀的峽灣而被稱為「阿拉伯的挪威」,地理上被崎嶇的山脈所隔絕,這裡的居民一直以來對外來者充滿敵意。盡管旅遊業正在發展,但它仍然是該國最偏遠和最孤立的地方之一。該行政區也是兩個獨特民族的家園,即庫姆扎里人和謝希人。
在阿拉伯語中,「穆桑代姆」意為「鐵砧」,也許是指其形狀。該地區在當地被稱為「Ru'us Al Jibal」(阿拉伯語:رُؤُوْس ٱلْجِبَال),意為眾山之頂或眾山之巔,表明其位於橫跨阿曼北部的希賈爾山脈的頂部。
「因耶和華為大神,為大王,超乎萬神之上。地的深處在他手中,山的高峰也屬他。海洋屬他,是他造的;旱地也是他手造成的。」(詩篇95:3-5)我們祝福穆桑代姆人民認識並跟隨創造他們獨特地形的神!
l 該地區幾乎沒有實地的福音見證。禱告信徒得到就業機會,讓他們搬遷到這裡並定居下來,並大膽地作見證。 l 禱告網路媒體能夠深入該行政區偏遠的山區和臨海村莊。特別為針對謝希人和庫姆扎里人的福音活動禱告,以最能讓他們理解的方式向他們傳播資訊。 與我們一同敬拜吧!《凡貧乏無力的人》(https://youtu.be/D_vRBPRFuUU),All Sons & Daughters。耶穌,願你的救恩信息在阿曼的群山中傳揚!

![]() Blessing Musandam Region Seen and Known Although this land is literally cut off and geographically isolated from the rest of Oman by borders and mountains, it is not unknown to God. May these children of Ishmael say like Hagar: She answered God by name, praying to the God who spoke to her, “You’re the God who sees me!" “Yes! He saw me; and then I saw Him!” (Genesis 16:13, The Message)

看見並且認識
盡管這片土地客觀上的確被邊界和山脈切斷,在地理上與阿曼其他地區隔絕,但神並非不知道它的存在。願這些以實瑪利的後裔像夏甲那樣說話:
夏甲就稱那對她說話的耶和華為「看顧人的神」。因而說:「在這裡我也看見那看顧我的嗎?」(創世記16:13)
l 我們祝福穆桑代姆行政區和人民能夠看見看顧他們的神! l 我們宣告,穆桑代姆人民被神看見和認識,並且他正在積極地搜尋和找回他們! 與我們一同敬拜吧!《你認識我》(https://youtu.be/N0C950WA49k),Steffany Gretzinger。耶穌,你看見並且認識阿曼人民! 馬太福音18:14重點—「你們在天上的父也是這樣,不願意這小子裡失喪一個。」

![]() Strait of Hormuz A Strategic Location Musandam sits at the mouth of the Persian (Arabian) Gulf in one of the most volatile spots in the world—the Strait of Hormuz (Arabic: مَضيق هُرمُز). This narrow shipping passage is the gateway to enter the Persian Gulf, and gives maritime access to Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, the UAE, Bahrain, Qatar, and eastern Saudi Arabia. Approximately 17 million barrels of oil pass through this strait daily, 40% of the world’s oil, as well as ⅓ of the world’s liquid natural gas. At its narrowest, it is 33 km/21 miles across, forming a strategic ‘chokepoint’ with the capacity to cripple world energy markets if blockaded. The strait is also known locally as Baab As-salaam (Arabic: مَضيق باب السلام), meaning "the door of peace." With increased tensions in the region between Iran and other Gulf nations, it is vital to be praying for the peace of these waters and lands. God has sovereignly given this strategic territory to Oman; let us ask for His purposes to be accomplished in this region, and for His Kingdom to come and His will to be done here! "He created all the people of the world from one man, Adam, and scattered the nations across the face of the earth. He decided beforehand which should rise and fall, and when. He determined their boundaries." (Acts 17:26) Worship with us!: Prince of Peace by Hillsong United. Jesus, bring Your peace to this region!

戰略要地
穆桑代姆位於波斯灣(阿拉伯灣)入口處,這裡是世界上最動蕩的地區之一-霍爾木茲海峽(https://maps.app.goo.gl/yjQTaqqc4Bw6Ni7X9)(阿拉伯語:مَضيق هُرمُز)。這條狹窄的航道是進入波斯灣的門戶,也是通往伊朗、伊拉克、科威特、阿聯酋、巴林、卡塔爾和沙特阿拉伯東部的海上通道。每天約有1700萬桶石油經過該海峽,占世界石油總產量的40%,以及世界液化天然氣總產量的三分之一。霍爾木茲海峽最窄處只有33公里/21英里寬,形成一個具有戰略意義的「咽喉要道」,一旦被封鎖,世界能源市場將陷入癱瘓。
當地也稱該海峽為Baab As-salaam(阿拉伯語:مَضيق باب السلام),意為「和平之門」。隨著伊朗與其他海灣國家之間緊張局勢加劇,需要時刻為這些水域和領土的和平禱告,這是極為重要的。神已將這片戰略要地主權給了阿曼;讓我們禱告願他的計畫在這一行政區實現,禱告祂的國度降臨,禱告祂的旨意在這裡成就!
「他從一本造出萬族的人,住在全地上,並且預先定準他們的年限和所住的疆界。」(使徒行傳17:26) 與我們一同敬拜吧!《和平之君》(https://youtu.be/kc0DKzPdv44),新頌聯合敬拜團。耶穌,請將你的和平帶給這個地區! 馬太福音18:14重點—「你們在天上的父也是這樣,不願意這小子裡失喪一個。」

![]() Khasab Fertile Ground Khasab (Arabic: خصب, pop. 21,651) is the capital and largest town of Musandam Region, and seat of Khasab district (pop. 29,688). It was built by the Portuguese in the 1600s as a supply point for their ships sailing through the Strait of Hormuz. There is a natural harbor here, and the Khasab fort was built as a supply point for dates and water for Portuguese ships sailing through the strait. Today, there is a lot of smuggling in these waters, as speedboats from Iran bring over sheep and goats, and return with electronics and cigarettes, all the while avoiding coast guard boats and oil tankers. With a new coastal road connecting it to the UAE, Khasab’s tourism is growing. It may also be reached by ferry from Oman. Day-trips in dhows (traditional wooden boats), dolphin-watching and scuba diving are popular activities. The fort has been well-restored with a museum and is also a tourist attraction. Khasab means 'fertile' in Arabic, probably referring to the fruitful mountain terraces that have been farmed for generations. May this land and the people's hearts be fertile ground for the sowing of the Gospel! “But the seed falling on good soil refers to someone who hears the word and understands it. This is the one who produces a crop, yielding a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown.” (Matthew 13:23) Pray for the Town and District of Khasab:
