Please pray for...
...a strong Holy Spirit anointing on upcoming Christmas services, celebrations, and presentations by local churches in predominantly Muslim countries.
​
…the growth of an “All Africa” prayer movement, whose focus is Muslim Unreached People Groups. The leader says, “Prayer transforms us to be willing to lay our lives down and fulfill the Great Commission, no matter the cost. Prayer gives us the burden.”
​

December 26, 2025
Please pray for...
​
...physical and spiritual healing in the lives of traumatized Christians in Burkina Faso. In recent years, invading Islamists have displaced 2 million people and killed many Christians. Of Burkina’s population of 24 million, 25% are Muslim.
​
…Chinese “missionaries” in Linxia, China, who are stepping up their evangelism efforts among the Muslims in that area. Linxia has been one of the main religious centers of China’s Muslim community, earning itself the nickname of “the little Mecca of China.”
​
…Nahid in Bangladesh. As a young adult Muslim, Nahid read the Scripture in order to refute it. The power of conviction fell upon him and he made the decision to follow Jesus. His ministry now is to establish discipleship centers throughout northern Bangladesh.
PRAY FOR MUSLIMS AT CHRISTMASTIME
Hope. Peace. Joy. Love. These are the blessings God has lavished upon us in sending His Son, Jesus, to earth to accomplish His plan of salvation for all who believe. But more than 2 billion Muslims are either not aware of God’s invitation to share in these blessings, or they have been blinded and reject Jesus as Lord and Savior.
Let’s pray
-
that Muslims would have encounters with Jesus in dreams and visions and sense the peace of His presence;
-
that believers would have God-arranged opportunities to share the Christmas story with Muslims, and that this powerful message of hope, peace, joy, and love would awaken hearts of seekers to the truth of the Incarnation;
-
that even in areas where Christmas is not acknowledged, people would observe through various media this celebration and sense a desire to know more about this Jesus who means so much to so many Christians;
-
for divine protection from any attacks planned against churches and believers during this season.

PRAY FOR MINISTRY IN TOGO
​
We recently prayed for the director of a Christian humanitarian organization as he visited ten communities to see their needs and consider how to serve them. The meetings were fruitful, and already at least three churches are being established in an area where many follow Islam, animism, or a mixture of both. This worker shares the following information and requests:
​
-
“Many villages have neither a church nor a mosque. There is an urgent need occupy these villages; the first to plant a work will have the control.” Pray that churches would mobilize to send workers to serve there.
-
In one village, the traditional chief explained that, as the “guardian” of their religion, he could not accept another. His two sons also expressed fear of the consequences of abandoning the worship of their gods. This worker, a former Muslim, shared with them how the Lord protected him through persecution when he left Islam. The two accepted Jesus, and this past Sunday a worker held services in two locations in the community. Pray that these works would be firmly established as the Lord delivers people from fear and false gods.
-
In another, strongly animistic village, this worker again shared his testimonies with four young men bound by fear, assuring them of Jesus’ love and protection. When he asked if they would like to experience this Jesus, they all cried “Yes!” and prayed to receive him. The pastor accompanying this worker has been able to begin services here. Pray for the growth of these young men and that many others will follow them into faith.
PRAY FOR "DIVIDED" FAMILIES
​
This Christmas season, former Muslims who have become followers of Jesus are joyfully celebrating the birth of their Savior. Some are able to share this joy with other family members who have joined them in the faith. But many have close and/or distant relatives who reject Jesus—and who reject them for having left Islam to serve Him. These believers long to see their loved ones come to know their Savior! Please pray for these “divided” families, that they would find unity in Jesus and rejoice in the assurance of eternity in heaven with Him and with one another.
The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.
James 5:16
