Ethiopian Authorities Concoct New Charge against Christian

2 Timothy 2:9 says that "God's word is not chained" and in the story that follows, we see another situation where the Word of God being distributed has caused an Ethiopian convert from Islam, to be arrested and jailed without charges being brought against him. 

Bashir Musa Ahmed, a 39-year-old Ethiopian national, was arrested on May 23 when police found him in possession of eight Bibles in Jijiga, capital of Ethiopia’s Somali Region Zone Five, a predominantly Muslim area in eastern Ethiopia. Zonal police arrested him after he was accused of providing Muslims with the Somali-language Bibles, sources said, though Ethiopia’s constitution protects such activity.

The report goes on to say that Bashir has been beaten while in jail, and they won't allow him to have medical treatment.  Please remember this dear one in your prayers today.
