Afghanistan

The news of the military transition in Afghanistan has gripped the attention of the world the last few weeks. Photos and video footage of Afghans seeking evacuation were especially heartbreaking. Simply put, this nation—and the small but rapidly growing Christian church there—needs our fervent intercession. Acts 4:29-30 comes to mind, which reads: “Now, Lord, look on their threats, and grant to Your servants that with all boldness they may speak Your word, by stretching out Your hand to heal, and that signs and wonders may be done through the name of Your holy Servant Jesus.” Pray for our Afghan brothers and sisters in Christ—for boldness, for protection, for miracles. God is ready to answer and move mightily in these desperate times. Now that’s something to pray about!
