Release International Prayer Shields, Iran, Myanmar, Nigeria

Prayers For Our Persecuted Family.
 
Sometimes it can be difficult to know what to pray for our persecuted family so we produce a daily prayer shield which gives a specific need that you can pray for each day. You can see today’s prayer, plus those for the last 6 days, below. You can also sign up using the form above to receive our Email Prayer Alert which we send out whenever we become aware of a specific and immediate situation which requires urgent prayer.
 

 
Children’s Prayer Sheet
 
It’s not only adults who can pray for our persecuted family. Every month we produce a prayer sheet aimed specifically for children. Each sheet has specific activities and prayers which will help children learn more about how persecution affects children in other countries. You can visit our Children’s Prayer Sheet page here.
 

Iran
 
Pray for members of house churches in Iran. Some have reported increased pressure amid protests following the death in custody of a young woman arrested by morality police.

Myanmar
 
Pray in faith that one day Myanmar will have leaders who respect the religious rights of all people.

Myanmar
 
Ask God to protect the many brave believers in Myanmar who proclaim the gospel whatever the cost, including indigenous church planters and missionaries.

Myanmar
 
The military in Myanmar has extended its emergency rule till at least 2023, reportedly to stabilise the country. Pray that this deferring of democracy will not mean a further erosion of religious rights.

Myanmar
 
In Myanmar, the military requisitioned a church in Mobye, Shan state, for use as a kitchen then planted land mines around it before they left. Pray for church members: one said the church’s desecration felt like ‘destroying our hearts’.

Myanmar
 
Pray for churches in Myanmar which are suffering violence and persecution at the hands of the ruling military junta, amid fighting between Government and rebels.

Nigeria
 
Pray for the Assemblies of God Church in Shikal village, Plateau state, Nigeria, where tribal animists assaulted members of the congregation and destroyed equipment. Attacks on churches by tribal animists are on the rise.
