Bangladesh

Praise Points

We thank God for the resilience of the Bangladeshi people who continue to come together in the face of challenges. Their community spirit and willingness to support one another reflect God’s love and compassion at work (The Bible, Galatians 6:2).

We thank God for the advancements in education and health in Bangladesh, which improve the quality of life for many citizens. These developments are vital for the country’s growth and empowerment, bringing hope for a brighter future (The Bible, Proverbs 18:15).

Prayer Points

Pray God will grant lasting peace and political stability in Bangladesh, calming tensions and fostering cooperation among leaders and citizens. Ask Him to guide political leaders in making wise decisions that promote the welfare of all people (The Bible, Isaiah 26:3).

Pray for wisdom for the students of Bangladesh so that they do not get involved in deplorable acts that show them in a poor light to the international community (The Bible, James 1:5).

Pray that the church in Bangladesh will rise as a peacemaking and reconciling force in society, bringing hope and healing to communities. Ask God to empower church leaders and members to actively engage in reconciliation efforts and demonstrate Christ’s love to those around them (The Bible, Matthew 5:9).

A Call To Salvation

Pray for breaking the stronghold of corruption and greed in Bangladesh, which often hinders justice and righteousness, preventing many from experiencing the truth of the Gospel. Let us be motivated and determined to ask God to expose and dismantle these practices, creating an environment where integrity flourishes and hearts are open to salvation in Christ (The Bible, 1 Timothy 6:10).

Promise For The Nation

“He will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn, your vindication like the noonday sun.” (The Bible, Psalm 37:6).

It was a sad day when student protesters tore down the statue of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, the Father of Bangladesh. While the student protesters were demanding the resignation of Sheikh Hasina, they failed to read up on their country’s history. The horrific abuse meted out to then East Pakistan forced India to fight West Pakistan (Present Day Pakistan). At the same time, the rest of the world chose to watch. Thus, the nation of Bangladesh was born. The political leader who sacrificed most in the conflict was Sheikh Mujibur Rahman. The failure of the students in the country to recognize the primary freedom fighter of their country is disturbing. Hatred along religious lines is not uncommon in this part of the world. Yet, this disrespect towards a freedom fighter has been unheard of until now.
