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.

Praise Points

Praise God for activists who voice out against the atrocities committed against women in Kuwait. Pray for more voices within the government to start making noise on women’s rights.

Praise God for the opportunity for Kingdom Workers to work for the harvest in this country.

Prayer Points

Pray against the indiscriminate arrests of social activists in Kuwait. Pray for the release of all such activists in the country (The Bible, Matthew 5:6).

Pray against the primitive mentality of lawmakers towards Kuwaiti women. Pray for a reformation of laws around violence against women in this country (The Bible, Psalm 90:12).

Pray for God’s Hand to move in favor of the Bidun people in Kuwait and for the government to offer them citizenship (The Bible, Psalm 146:9).

A Call to Salvation

Let Jesus appear to the Kuwaiti Royal family in dreams and visions. Let them come into the saving grace of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ (The Bible, Psalm 89:19).

Promise for the Nation

For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life (The Bible, John 3:16).

Kuwait is steadily falling backward in terms of women’s rights. Their failure to allow women equal rights and heavily discriminate against them to extreme levels is quite alarming. The Kuwaiti government punishes honor killings only with fines or superficial jail sentences. In addition, sexual abusers will face no punishment if they marry the victim with the permission of a guardian. While this is unthinkable in the West, such is the political climate in this country. Moreover, the addition of laws aimed at silencing whistle-blowers on social media came into effect this year.
