Pray for Christians in Pakistan
May 16, 2007 by tdgiddens
Just ran across this article on Fox News regarding threats against Christians along the Pakistan/Afghanistan Border:
About 500 Pakistani Christians in Charsadda, a town in the North West Frontier Province bordering Afghanistan, received letters earlier this month telling them to close their churches and convert by Thursday or be the target of “bomb explosions.”
Let’s cover them in prayer. Let’s pray for their safety amidst these threats, and let’s pray they will ultimately hold fast to the Gospel even in the face of grave danger. No doubt, their presence in that land leaves them vulnerable every day, whether the threat is specific or not; however, it appears in this instance there is an imminent threat. May the God of peace be their comfort and their shelter in the coming days, and may his presence with them and the testimony of these believers see the conversion of many Muslims.
