Pray for the lost who have no way to hear, for the corners still left in utter darkness. Pray God will show them Who He is. So many countries throughout the earth forbid the celebration of Christmas or even the mention of Jesus’ name. And many of those places have darkened all the more inContinue reading “Christmas in the Dark”

Prayers for the Persecuted This Christmas
As we gather with loved ones this Christmas and worship God freely in our churches, let’s take a moment to pray together as a family for persecuted Christians throughout the world who don’t have that freedom. Pray for protection, strength, courage, and the Spirit’s empowering to endure suffering and share with the lost. Lord, weContinue reading “Prayers for the Persecuted This Christmas”
Thanksgiving & Religious Freedom

“Bow your head. Close your eyes.” Then comes the prayer, right? In my family, if my Daddy prayed before a meal, it might be cold by the time we got to it. His heartfelt prayers, often with tears, covered the lost without Christ, missionaries throughout the world, persecuted…
Lives Saved in Afghanistan
As we thank God this week for His blessings, let’s also thank Him for answered prayers for Afghanistan, for those who have been rescued from danger and for the courageous people who have been involved in those rescues. Most of these stories cannot be told publicly for security reasons, but here is one beautifully re-writtenContinue reading “Lives Saved in Afghanistan”
Amhara of Ethiopia
Ethiopia is #36 in Open Doors’ World Watchlist of most dangerous countries for Christians. The Amhara are Orthodox Christians who trace their roots back to Noah (through Shem). Due to violence in northern Ethiopia through recent years, an estimated 4 million people have been displaced, and thousands of Amhara women and girls have fallen preyContinue reading “Amhara of Ethiopia”
Abducted Missionaries in Haiti
Lord, we pray for the 17 missionaries (including children) who are being held hostage for ransom by gang members in Haiti since Saturday. Be a Mighty Shield around them, holding back the enemy and caring for all their needs. Protect them from harm and fight for them. Reveal to rescuers the location where the hostagesContinue reading “Abducted Missionaries in Haiti”
Pray for Hong Kong
China has jumped six places from last year’s Open Doors World Watch List of most dangerous countries for Christians to live. In just three years, it has risen 26 places.

Prayer for the Persecuted
Lord, we ask You for Christians all throughout the world who are undergoing persecution at this time.

Matthew 11:20-30 As Afghanistan sets upContinue reading “Turn to Me (Prayer for Afghanistan and the World)”
Prayer for Taiwan
Tension has risen in East Asia since Friday, as China has flown 149 aircraft inside Taiwan’s air defense zone, including 56 yesterday. (Communist China considers democratic Taiwan a breakaway province.) Let’s pray now, in the midst of earthly conflict, for God’s divine purposes. Lord, we thank You for the freedom Christians have had to worshipContinue reading “Prayer for Taiwan”
