Navratri - Day 3

Today is the 3rd day of Navratri.  The goddess worshiped today is Chandraganta (means "moon-bell").  She is considered brave, fierce and beautiful.  Devotees who are beginning a new venture would seek her help to remove obstacles.  She is shown riding a lion and ready for war.  It is believed that the sound of her bell or her voice causes demons to tremble and protects her devotees. 

Please pray for the Hindus of Delhi (and all over the world) today!  They have a lot of fears of demons and evil spirits.  Please pray that they will hear about the One who is more powerful than any demon!  Pray that that Christians of Delhi will not be afraid to share their faith with their Hindu friends and neighbors. 


"There is no fear in love.  But perfect love drives out fear;  because fear has to do with punishment.  The one who fears is not made perfect in love.  We love because he first loved us."
1 John 4:18-19
