International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church

BEK Staff representing different nations of the world in honor of International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church.

From idop.org:

“Believers in countries such as Egypt, Eritrea, India, Iran, Nigeria, Pakistan and Vietnam face violence, imprisonment and even death because of their faith in Jesus Christ. There are other places in the world such as North Korea where acts of persecution take place, but we don’t see or hear of it. Brother Andrew of Open Doors once said: ‘Our heroes are not with us simply because they are in prison.’

IDOP is a time set apart for us to remember thousands of our Christian brothers and sisters around the world who suffer persecution, simply because they confess Jesus Christ as Lord.”

Here in America, we don’t have it as hard as people in other nations do. Let us take advantage of our freedom and pray for our Christian brothers and sisters who are being persecuted around the world. Make some time today to pray for the nations around the world. That God would protect those who are being attacked because of their faith in Jesus Christ. Pray for our nation as well, that God would have mercy and remember His people! God bless you guys!
