PRAYER REQUESTS FOR
DECEMBER 13, 2024
Please pray for...
…churches to be re-opened in Algeria. The Muslim government has closed more than 40 churches since 2017. Of Algeria’s population of 46 million, 97% are Muslim.
…wisdom for an evangelical church in New Zealand that has taken humanitarian responsibility for a mother and two children from Afghanistan, and a Muslim couple from Iran.
…peace and stability for Lebanon. Severe inflation is running at more than 50% and has led to shortages of food and medicine. Of Lebanon’s population of 5 million, 59% are Muslim.
PRAY FOR LEBANON
Although most of Lebanon’s people are Muslim, this nation was founded by Maronite Christians and Druze, About 1 in 3 people in Lebanon claim to be Christian, and its president is customarily a Maronite Catholic. Today the Shia Muslim group Hezbollah wields great power both militarily and politically. Since October 8, 2023, Hezbollah has been at war with Israel in a show of solidarity with Gaza. Israel has greatly weakened Hezbollah, and on November 27 a ceasefire came into effect. Let’s pray for the people—Christian and Muslim—of Lebanon.
-
Pray for peace and stability. Lebanon’s economy has been in crisis since 2020 and the president’s office vacant since 2022. Pray that God would place in charge those who will favor the Church and her mission.
-
Pray for those displaced. This latest conflict has displaced some 1.2 million people. Some are staying with relatives, some in organized camps, others in the open air. Pray that wherever they are, they would see miracles of provision and meet those who can share Jesus with them.
-
Pray for believers. A worker asks for prayer for “all the churches and Christians there to be fruitful instruments in the hands of the Lord to spread the gospel in such volatile and dangerous circumstances.”

PRAISE REPORT FROM
GUINEA-CONAKRY
Praise God, this past week two more churches received steel tabernacles for their congregations. Of the 12 sites that were prepared, 8 now have their new shelters! A team of Guinean believers erected these two and will continue under the direction of the national church. Pray (1) for safety for this team on the roads and at the worksites; and (2) for provision for each congregation to complete its building with the walls and floor. Often Muslims mock Christians who lack adequate or attractive worship places; a nice building is a powerful witness.
PRAY FOR SOUTH SUDAN
In 2011, the southern part of Sudan broke away from Arab-dominated Sudan and became the nation of South Sudan. Most of its 12 million people adhere to Christianity in some form, or to their traditional religion; the 600,000 Arabs living there follow Islam. Years of civil war, lack of a stable government, droughts, and floods have kept people in severe poverty. But—Jesus is being preached! Currently the Ethiopian Assemblies of God is working to re-launch the Assemblies of God in South Sudan. Let’s pray for this nation and for these efforts.
-
Pray for land. Over the years, properties belonging to the previous AG organization were confiscated. Pray for a miracle of restoration of this land and for provision of land needed for future building.
-
Pray for outreach to Arabs. Most South Sudanese are Black Africans, and many resent the minority Arabs and are even suspicious of those who leave Islam to follow Christ. Pray that true believers would model God’s love for all people and share His message with Arabs as they have opportunity.
-
Pray for refugees. In the midst of its own tremendous need, South Sudan is hosting more than half a million refugees fleeing conflict elsewhere. Most come from Sudan, and most are Muslims. Pray for provision—and that the Holy Spirit would direct these people to believers who can meet their deepest need: salvation in Jesus.
