Day 13
Nepal
Praise Points
Praise God because the window of opportunity is open for a Kingdom Harvest in Nepal for a few years (The Bible, Matthew 28:16-20).
Praise God for the growing number of churches joining to fulfill the Great Commission in Nepal (The Bible, Matthew 28:16).
Prayer Points
Pray for unity among Nepal’s churches and mission organizations (The Bible, Romans 12:3).
Pray for local ministries to find ways to find funding locally and not solely depend on foreign funding (The Bible, Psalm 144:13).
Pray for the cover-up and corruption in the Nepali criminal justice system. Pray for God’s divine intervention to turn the tide in favor of true justice for the Nepali people (The Bible, Proverbs 21:15).
A Call to Salvation
Let those who are persecuting Christian Believers in Nepal encounter God in supernatural ways. Let their eyes be opened to the TRUTH of the Gospel of Jesus Christ (The Bible, John 8:32).
Promise to the Nation
But the plans of the Lord stand firm forever, the purposes of His heart through all generations (The Bible, Psalm 33:11).
Nepal saw a significant drop in the Persecution Rankings in 2023. It is not ranked in the top 50 on the Open Doors Index this year. The change is due to no government backing for radical Hindu outfits in Nepal. However, Christian Believers continue to face persecution from the society in general. Persecution is high for Hindu converts who live in rural areas. While the urban areas of Nepal are more tolerant, radical groups have a heavy presence in the outskirts. Nepal also saw a marginal economic upturn that reduced the percentage of the population who live below the poverty line. Nepal inked twelve new agreements with China despite the recent map controversy with its Communist neighbor to the north.
Day 13
United Arab Emirates
Praise Points
Praise God that certain parts of the country are relatively safe to preach God’s Word (The Bible, Romans 16:25).
Praise for the growing church in the UAE (The Bible, 1 Peter 2:2).
Prayer Points
Pray for God’s Light to outshine every scheme and trap laid by satan against Christian Believers in the UAE (The Bible, Psalm 25:15).
Pray for releasing all activists held in UAE prisons (The Bible, Psalm 31:4).
Pray for migrant workers to find favor in the sight of their overseers (The Bible, Proverbs 8:35).
A Call to Salvation
Let the Holy Spirit touch and move the royal family in the UAE. Pray for them to experience the saving grace of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ (The Bible, Psalm 18:35).
Promise to the Nation
To those who by persistence in doing good seek glory, honor and immortality, He will give eternal life (The Bible, Romans 2:7).
The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is a country in the Arabian Peninsula. The government is utilizing all technology at its disposal to monitor the lives and activities of Christian Believers and human rights activists. Several prominent human rights activists languish in prisons without any reason. Their only crime was to stand up for the rights of the oppressed. The government has not released those who completed their incarceration in recent years. Migrant workers from poor countries face a lot of mistreatment. No action is taken against the perpetrators.
