Afghanistan and Haggai Leaders: A Call for Prayer

Fleeing refugees. Desperate, fatal evacuation attempts. Fear of increased religious persecution. Food shortages. The scenes coming out of Afghanistan are unsettling as locals, the Middle East, and much of the world watch an unknown future shape into existence with the Taliban’s takeover.

As the son of a Syrian refugee, Haggai International founder Dr. John Edmund Haggai’s heart always broke for the Middle East. He longed for his people and the region to experience a relationship with Jesus. In fact, it was during Dr. John Edmund Haggai’s first trip outside the U.S. in Beirut, Lebanon, that conversations with Christian leaders there alerted him to weaknesses in the Western missionary model. While Haggai International has been equipping Middle Eastern leaders since the beginning of its ministry, in 1980, the organization hosted its first equipping in the Arabic language which has continued to this day. Today, over 8,500 Haggai leaders live and work in the Middle East, many of them crossing dangerous borders in the regions we’re reading about in the news, risking their lives that others might know the Good News of the Gospel.

This month, 44 first-time leaders in the Middle East are currently preparing to go through the Virtual Haggai Leader Experience. Although we can’t always share their stories, names, or faces, these leaders are a part of carrying the light to the darkest places, despite conflict and war.

Today, we ask for prayer for our leaders on the ground in the Middle East as they continue to lean into the conflict around their countries. These leaders work with refugees living in horrific conditions, women living under deep oppression, businessmen and women vying for success, and world leaders making life-altering decisions for their countries.

Pray with us for the refugees seeking safe passage to the US and worldwide.

Pray with us for all those who have lost loved ones, who are grieving, and who are living in fear today.

And pray that the Middle East, home to 259 million non-Christians, would experience the radical, transformational light of Christ.

Ending Gospel poverty has never been more important.

And today we come to you with humble hearts and reverence lifting our brothers and sisters in Afghanistan. May your divine hand be on this nation at this time of turmoil. It is our prayers that you intervene immediately to bring a peace and calm to this nation. Let every evil plan and assignment of Satan be destroyed. You said you will give your angels charge over us. So summon your arch angels to war on behalf of your children in this country. Send forth your warrior angels to fight for their protection. Jehovah Gibbor fight for your people.

    LORD Jesus Christ Son of God have mercy on us. We who’ve been delivered from darkness of islam know the Love, Joy and Eternal Life we experience now as we await our eternal home when our experience will be indescribable and with no more sorrow or death.

    O God, our help in time of need, Who are just and merciful, and Who inclines to the supplications of His people. Look down upon people created in Your Image who are in Afghanistan and the Middle East, and have mercy on them and deliver them from the trouble that now besets them.

    Deal with them not according to their iniquities, but according to Your manifold mercies, for we are the works of Your hands, and You know our weaknesses. I pray to you to grant them your divine helping grace, and endow them with patience and strength to endure their hardships with complete submission to Your Will.

    Only You know our misery and sufferings, and to You, our only hope and refuge, we flee for relief and comfort, trusting in Your infinite love and compassion, that in due time, when You know best, You will deliver them from this trouble, and turn their distress into comfort.

    We then shall rejoice in Your mercy, and exalt and praise Your Holy Name, O Father, Son and Holy Spirit, both now and forever and to the ages of ages.

    Amen.

    LORD Jesus Christ Son of God have mercy on us. We who’ve been delivered from darkness of islam know the Love, Joy and Eternal Life we experience now as we await our eternal home when our experience will be indescribable and with no more sorrow or death.

    O God, our help in time of need, Who are just and merciful, and Who inclines to the supplications of His people. Look down upon people created in Your Image who are in Afghanistan and the Middle East, and have mercy on them and deliver them from the trouble that now besets them.

    Deal with them not according to their iniquities, but according to Your manifold mercies, for we are the works of Your hands, and You know our weaknesses. I pray to you to grant them your divine helping grace, and endow them with patience and strength to endure their hardships with complete submission to Your Will.

    Only You know our misery and sufferings, and to You, our only hope and refuge, we flee for relief and comfort, trusting in Your infinite love and compassion, that in due time, when You know best, You will deliver them from this trouble, and turn their distress into comfort.

    We then shall rejoice in Your mercy, and exalt and praise Your Holy Name, O Father, Son and Holy Spirit, both now and forever and to the ages of ages.

    Amen.

    Dear God of heaven and earth, we cry to you concerning your body – the church in these perilous times. Build your church as you said you would. A strong united entity that is unstoppable, powerful, unyielding and the gates of hell not prevailing against us! Confuse the gatherings of the powers of darkness against your church. Encounter the leaders of the enemies of the cross and bring them bowing in the name of Jesus Christ – the undisputable head of everything. Thank you LORD for your faithfulness as ever. Unto you alone be glory, honor and power, Amen!

    Comment…”With our hearts and hands lifted up in surrender, we plead by the blood and in the Name of Jesus, the name that is above all that the acts of wickedness being unleashed on His handwork and humanity, cease forthwith. May The Lord enlist and equip us, though unworthy of His calling, to hold back the night where we are, not counting by the cost till the works of the arch enemy be caught and destroyed. Amen!

    As the kingdoms of the world are being shaken, may the Lord uphold and strengthen the minds of all His children, especially our brethren in Afghanistan. May they know that they belong to an unshakable kingdom, and feel the mighty hand of God holding them sure and secure. May the darkness that covers the land be dispelled by the light of Christ as He reveals Himself to people in miraculous ways – even among the leaders of the Taliban. May they receive revelations of Jesus Christ. May Afghanistan be delivered from the rule of terror.

    Our blessed Father in Heaven, the almighty God , who is sovereign and rules in heaven and on earth over the affairs of men, we call upon you now, to divinely intervene in the situation in the middle east and particularly in Afghanistan. The government of the Talibans shall fizzle out with the same euphoria in which it came and it shall become history. As might Babylon and Roman empires are now mere historical events , so shall the rabble rousing rulership of the Talibans end. The kingdom of God shall over rule all others, for the Lord shall build His church and the gates of hell shall not prevail. Please, Lord strengthen the heart of your servants and children in the region and grant them boldness to stand and proclaim the faith. In Jesus name.

    Father thank You because You are beautiful for all situations even the situation around the Middle East right now. We plead for Your mercies that endures forever over the Haggai leaders who are staking their lives in order to take the gospel to the people that have closed up against the gospel. Lord may You defend Your servants and give them open ways to sail through safely. Lord please help the believers who are targets of attack in Afghanistan to escape the onslaught of the Taliban who has forcefully taken the government. Thank You for doing it in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
