Iraq- Urgent Prayer Needed for Believers in Mosul
Posted by tdtwonations on October 14, 2008
نعمة وسلام ربنا يسوع المسيح مع جميعكم..Dear Friends, This request comes from our e3 leader in Iraq. Please pray for the believers being killed in Mosul which is the Biblical city of Ninevah. In the Old Testament, the people from Ninevah of the Assyrian empire were some of the most violent and destructive people in history. That’s why Jonah did not want to travel to Ninevah and he certainly hoped for the judgment of God to fall on these people. Isn’t it amazing that these believers are being killed in the very place that Israel’s Northern Kingdom was taken into captivity? Please take the time to read this and to join with believers around the world praying and fasting for God to intervene in Mosul
Dear Brothers and Sisters in the Lord, this email is a prayer request from Iraq, the people in general and especially the city of Mosul (known also as Nineveh) and the Christians there.
During the last 4-5 days around 25 Christians (some say 40) were killed in the streets in different parts of the city for religious and political causes, in the past people used to be kidnapped, threatened pay a ransom to be freed…well now they’re being killed without prior notice…the government haven’t done anything so far! Even the media didn’t cover it till the third day. many Christians fled to the near by villages and cities where they’re living under severe conditions (families are actually sleeping in their cars), fear and worries fill the place…We’re Praying an (S.O.S) prayer for the terrorists who think that they’re doing so for God to wake up and know who’s the real God. For the Christians the believers and the nominal ones to get closer to Jesus, for the many families who lost a loved one, their houses and money that they’ll never forget that no matter what we lose, we’ll still have the places Jesus is preparing for us in Heavens… and finally for Christians who live in the safer area that they remember and do as Jesus asked “For whoever will give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because you are Christ’s, most certainly I tell you, he will in no way lose his reward”. Mark 9:41.
We’re starting to fast to 3 days for Iraq and its people like the days people of Nineveh fasted at the time of Jonah. For that our suffering will turn the eyes towards our savior…
Let’s life our hands together asking for Peace from the King of peace in Jesus’ name
“I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask me for anything in my name, I will do it.” John 14:13-14
Grace and peace to all of u.
