You know that the Dalai Lama is Tibetan, but did you know he is from one of the Amdo groups? An eighth-century Tibetan sage prophesied that “When the iron bird flies and horses run on wheels, the Tibetan people will be scattered like ants across the world and the Dharma will come to the land of the Red Man.” The Rtahu Amdo people speak one of the four Amdo languages. Though many have fled to India, most remain in China.
The Rtahu Amdo are dedicated Tibetan Buddhists. They worship spirit beings. No Christian believers live among the Rtahu Amdo, and if anyone in the tribe places all his or her trust in Christ, the community response will undoubtedly be serious.
Pray that the Rtahu Amdo would seek the freedom that can only be found in Christ—no matter where they live and no matter who rules over them.
Pray that they would come to know God's government, the one ruled by a Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Pray for a movement to Christ to flourish among them.
