Pray for Afghanistan

There are some very heavy and horrific images and stories coming out of Afghanistan. Knowing what to say and do is very difficult, but knowing the power of prayer — and the promises given about prayer — make prayer the best place to start.

Today I want to share with you a prayer I found posted by @forallisthroughhim:

Father in Heaven, we pray for the lives in Afghanistan. We pray for Your protection to cover and preserve the bodies and lives of the women and the girls. We pray that You give wisdom, discernment and insight to the leaders to make the right decisions to protect and keep the country safe from the Taliban leaders and followers. We pray that You soften the hearts and minds of the Taliban group from causing more harm to the country. We pray that in the meantime You send Your hope, love and peace which surpasses all understanding to the lives in Afghanistan, to trust in You that You have given them victory over their enemies. In Jesus’ name, Amen

And here’s an article I found at https://www.9marks.org/article/afghan-pastors-ask-for-prayer/

These have helped me in knowing what and how to pray.

And if you feel inspired, I would love for you to reply to this email with your prayer. In this way we can join together in calling on our Daddy in Heaven.
