Prayer During Ramadan

The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. (Galatians 5:22)

Ramadan is a holy time for Muslims; their day is spent fasting from sun-up to sun-down. During this time they seek to purify their souls, practice self sacrifice and desire that God be more attentive to their prayers. Since Muslims are more sensitive to hearing from God during Ramadan, opportunities are increased to draw them toward the truth of Gospel. 

Because of the this, during the month of Ramadan, from August 1-30, 2011, Open Doors is calling on Christians in the West to pray for Christians living in Islamic dominated countries… praying specifically for God to fill and strengthen them with the “Fruit of the Spirit.” This “fruit” embodied in each believer; molds, shapes and transforms us - expressing the image of His Son. And through this image, shining through a believer, God draws people to salvation.

Let us boldly stand together in prayer:

Lord, through our prayers may our brothers and sisters be sanctified and empowered in You. And may many come to see the fullness of Your glory through them and enter into Your kingdom. Father we pray this in Jesus Christ our Savior’s Holy Name. Amen
