God, we love you! As your Church, help us do what it takes to let the people Old Town grasp the Good News that Jesus brought the message of the Kingdom of Heaven being at hand! (Matthew 4:17)
Shahid became a believer two and a half years ago. He lives in Multan and comes from a family of “Pir Culture”. His father is a Pir and they have his grandfather’s shrine in their house where local people come with their prayer needs. A believer had been discipling him for over two years and arranged for him to meet with a local pastor and get baptized. This is a big step for him because baptism can be a big challenge when your whole family has strong opposing views. He was recently married to a Muslim woman arranged by his family and he shared this with her but she is still a Muslim by faith. He has joined a local church and is actively growing in faith.
Please pray for Shahid for any future challenges he will face as a growing believer and pray for his wife to also come to know Jesus and not be opposed to Him.
“O our God, will you not execute judgment on them? For we are powerless against this great horde that is coming against us. We do not know what to do, but our eyes are on you.”” (2 Chronicles 20:12 ESV).
Father God, you see the hopelessness and the brokenness that surrounds and threatens your church Old Town. You see how the enemy steals and destroys. And we ask that in the midst of the incomprehensible and insurmountable brokenness, you would revive and strengthen your followers Old Town that they might say with your Word, “we do not know what to do, but our eyes on you, Lord.” (2 Chronicles 20:12).
