PRAYER REQUESTS FOR
June 5, 2026
Please pray for…
…an outreach to the Hui Muslims of a large central city in China. After years of gospel seed-planting, a breakthrough has occurred. China has roughly 30 million Muslims, with the largest groups being Mandarin-speaking Hui and Turkic-speaking Uyghurs.
… Bangladesh, as they recently held elections. Pray for the minority Christian community and that the newly elected leaders will resist extremism and allow religious freedom.
…Christian girls in Pakistan who are forcibly converted to Islam. Once forcibly converted, they face extreme difficulties returning to their families. Pray for strength and discernment on ways for them to escape these situations and to encounter ministries that can help them.
PRAY FOR IRAN
Pray for the people of Iran, who continue to suffer economic distress and political confusion. A report, denied by the government, claims that this past Sunday Iran’s president asked to step down, on the grounds that he and his government “have effectively been excluded from major and vital decision-making processes in the country, and that the vacuum created by this situation has enabled hardline factions within the IRGC [the military Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps] to take control of affairs." The new Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khomenei, is said to be severely wounded but alive and active in decision-making, but has yet to appear, and it remains unclear who is running the nation. Economic experts warn of a further economic downturn and shrinking labor market in 2026. Let’s pray!
-
Pray that Iranians will continue to turn to Jesus. An Iranian worker notes that forcing Islam on people has backfired, and there is great openness to the gospel. People living under this harsh regime are attracted by the idea of God’s love for them as an individual, and the Church is growing in Iran faster than anywhere else.
-
Pray that leaders—from the Supreme Leader to city mayors—would themselves have revelations of Jesus, see His Truth, and reject the spirit they have been serving.
-
Pray for emotional healing and provision for those who have lost family members and livelihoods in the January 8–9 massacre of some 40,000 protesters around the country by the IRGC.
Additional Prayer
Requests
PRAY FOR NIGERIA
Please pray concerning two requests from this nation in which so many suffer due to jihadist activity:
-
A worker reports the killing of a young lady who boldly shared Jesus in her community: “She preached in the street with her megaphone: ‘Jesus is coming soon. He is the only path that leads to the living God. There is no other name that saves.’ This was her message every day. A group of jihadists came and took her life. Pray for her family. May God raise up others to carry on the mission.”
-
On February 3, Boko Haram jihadists attacked a community in western Nigeria, killing more than 200 people and abducting 176 women and children. The terrorists have recently informed family members that their loved ones have been memorizing the Koran and learning Islamic teaching and etiquette, and will soon be participating in a “graduation” ceremony. All expenses incurred, they clarify, will be added to ransom payments they will require in negotiations with the families and the government for the release of the captives.
-
Please pray
-
for God’s divine intervention and the liberation of these women and children,
-
that the Spirit would protect the hearts and minds of these people who being indoctrinated by people who have embraced the violent spirit behind Islam,
-
for the families in this Muslim-majority village, that they would seek the true God, and for believers in the community, that they would have opportunities to share the comfort and redemption Jesus offers.
