IRAN
We lift up the people of Iran, asking God to protect the fearful, comfort the grieving, and provide for the displaced and vulnerable. May oppression end, freedom take root, and hope rise where darkness has prevailed. Bring healing to wounded bodies and hearts, and restore peace within families and communities.
We pray for believers and the Church: for safety amid persecution, wisdom and courage for leaders serving in secrecy, and for the light of Christ to shine powerfully through love and faith, even in crisis.
We ask for leaders, in Iran and across the world, to be guided by wisdom, compassion, and restraint. May violence cease, bloodshed end, and hearts turn from tyranny toward justice. Lord, intervene to calm conflict, restore peace in the region, and accomplish Your righteous purposes.
“We lift up our brothers and sisters in Christ, and every underground church being faithfully planted and guided by the Holy Spirit.”
A word of prayerful reflection for our sisters and brothers in Christ in Iran…
…“I have called you back from the ends of the earth, saying, ‘You are my servant.’ For I have chosen you and will not throw you away. Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.”
-Isaiah 41:9-10 NLT
IRAQ
For peace to prevail in the Middle East, especially in Iraq, and for the new government to be chosen smoothly, peacefully, and without threats or obstacles.
For the Church to bear witness to God's love as revealed in Christ through our programs and evangelistic activities.
For the Lord to provide for the Church in Iraq (in Baghdad and Dohuk) so that it may acquire its own building instead of paying expensive rent.
