Christians in Iraq

Postby holysoldier5000 » Tue Nov 08, 2005 7:23 pm

With Iraq taking center stage on the world scene, lost amidst the fog of war are a small, once proud and once very influential people. For some reason almost completely ignored in the current discussions are 2.5 million Assyrian Christians. Scattered throughout Iraq, but primarily near the city of Nineveh, currently known as Mosul, these remnants of the great Assyrian Empire, now devote followers of Christ, are struggling to make Iraq a free country for all religious beliefs. These brave evangelists and believers suffered greatly under Saddam Hussein and even now strive to keep their country free from Islamic oppression. But they need help. As the world ignores them these fellow brothers and sisters in Christ fear for their lives as Islamic Militants continue to drive out or destroy the Assyrian Christian Churches. Please remember these daring Christians in your prayers as they try to reach an area that desperately needs the hope of Christ. Please also remember Rev. Ken Joseph Jr., one of the missionaries fighting to take Iraq for Christ.

Heavenly Father you know where thede peole are and you know there unique needs. I pray for boldness for them so that they may continue to spread your word and message. Also for protection from physical, mental, spiritual attacks. Bless them in every area of their lives so that they may raise a standard for you and that Iraq would be a country devoted to you. Mat they be free to share your Love and Compassion and that all people would be able to see your glory and goodness working in this country. Lord I pray that others would go to this country and take your word in the power of the Holy Spirit. Lord that people there would have a greater revelation of who you are and what you have done for them so they would follow you alone. I pray that the church would grow strong in Iraq and that they would perservere to the end always praying and seeking your will in all situations. That they would start with faith and finish with faith.
Love Light Life -
be these and it could cost you your Pride.
do not be them and you will sure keep your Pride.
But certainly lose your Love, Light and Life.

Love God, Love People.

I'll be more than glad to pray for them.
God has a plan for each of us
He wants us to fullfill
And He'll provide the strength we need
To carry out His will.


God bless.. :jump:
