Release International Prayer Shields: Eritrea and China

16 April 2021 – Eritrea

Please continue to pray that God will sustain Christians behind bars in Eritrea. Thank God that a number were released last year, including some who had been held for a decade or more.

15 April 2021 – China

China has developed a powerful system of digital surveillance, with more than half a billion cameras installed. Praise God that in contrast His eyes ‘range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to Him’ (2 Chronicles 16:9).

14 April 2021 – China

Ask God to protect members of the Early Rain Covenant Church in Chengdu, China. More than 200 members have been arrested since 2018, including Pastor Wang Yi.

13 April 2021 – China

Praise God for the strong faith of Li Wei’s wife in China. When their water and power were cut off, she said: ‘We are forced to live in darkness. But our hearts are full of… the light that comes from God’s Word.’

12 April 2021 – China

Pray for ‘Li Wei’, his wife and children who were evicted from three apartments during the pandemic in China last year ‒ simply because of their faith in Jesus. Their landlords had been pressured by Communist party members.

11 April 2021 – China

In jail Pastor Zhang has suffered various abuses, including being denied access to proper food and being subjected to ‘concentrated education’. Ask God to strengthen and uphold prisoners of faith in China such as Zhang.

10 April 2021 – China

Pray for Chinese Pastor Zhang Shaojie of Nanle County Christian Church who has been transferred to a different prison in Henan province to carry out the remaining five years of his 12-year sentence for alleged fraud.
