The Shi’ite Muslim Hazara have already lost more than half their population due to ethnic cleansing by Pashtun rulers and the Sunni Muslim Taliban over the years, but now that international troops have withdrawn, violence has increased all the more against this ancient people group native to central Afghanistan.
Lord of Heaven and Earth, please have mercy on the Hazara. Be a Shield around them and draw them up into Your arms, for they have not yet heard Your Good News. They do not know of Your great love for them or how precious they are to You, that You created them for Your glory. The Bible has not been translated into their unwritten language, so how can they know unless You make the way? Romans 10:14-15. Please, Lord, make a way where there seems to be no way for them to know You. Cross every language barrier, every mountain. Break through religion and culture, and show them who You are. Meet them in their dreams. Bring Christians across their path who will share the Gospel in a way they can easily understand. Protect the Hazara from harm and provide for all their needs in such a way that they will know it is You. Fight for their salvation and for the salvation of those who persecute them. O Lord, pierce the darkness over Afghanistan with Your light. March in with Your angel armies and fight for the souls of those who have only ever known violence and hatred. The enemy has killed, stolen and destroyed, but Your offer of abundant life still stands. John 10:10. Have mercy, O God of Love, and show the Hazara the way to You before it’s too late. Shelter the children. Watch over their innocent hearts. Get them to safety, and bring them unto You. Matthew 19:14. Give both the Hazara and their persecutors such a hunger for You they will travel far and wide to hear Your Good News. Sweep across that nation with the floodwaters of Your love, breaking ancient chains of destruction, violence, murder, hatred, and war; and releasing every heart to receive Your salvation. Yes, Holy Spirit, come now. Awaken the peoples of Afghanistan to Love.
