Ramadan Guinea Prayer

30 Ways for Muslims to encounter Christ

Many Muslims when faced with difficult questions about their religion fall back on the claim that God is unknowable. In Christianity, though we cannot fathom the fullness of who God is, we do believe that God revealed Himself to us in Christ and wants to be known by us. Today we pray for Muslims in Guinea to encounter God by knowing Christ.

Our Treasure in Jesus

God, we love you! As your Church, help us do what it takes to let the people of Guinea grasp the Good News that our redemption is IN Christ! (Romans 3:24)

Testimonies from Guinea

“Abou” is a MBB (Muslim Background Believer), the first believer in his family and village. Things were so tense at the time that he had to flee. He has lived elsewhere in Guinea for many years, and is now married to a Christian lady. They have two children. In 2023, his father decided it was finally safe for him to visit the village again. Abou was still worried about being attacked and imprisoned, but, supported by another MBB, he returned to his village. Praise God the visit was safe – and fruitful. Abou’s father is now a believer too, as well as his young adult son from a previous relationship.  Pray for this family and many others to continue faithfully in allegiance to Christ and resist temptations to fall back into Islam and the worldly temptations. Pray especially during this time of Ramadan when the pressure and the mocking increase.

Biblical Prayers

“I  am sending you to them to open their eyes and turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.’ Acts 26:18

Pray that God will open the eyes of Guineans so they can turn away from darkness and the power of Satan. Pray they will turn to the light of God and receive forgiveness of sins and eternal life in Jesus Christ.

Claiming Our Hope in Christ and His Heart for the Nations

Father, hear our cries. We intercede on behalf of this nation, that you would move and change its trajectory. We see, Lord, how violence and division have wreaked havoc. We acknowledge that the sins of generations have destroyed the land and undermined the peace. But we also declare your steadfast love, your faithfulness and kindness. And we call out to you now and ask for your intervening love.

Step in, O God, and do miracles. Change what cannot be changed. Break what cannot be broken. Shut what cannot be shut.

And in Your mercy open what is locked. Unbind what is bound, and loose what is contained. Release peace. Spread love. And may a mighty river of reconciliation flood this land, bringing men and women and youth together in unity–baptized into the unity of Messiah–under whom all can be healed, all can be saved, all can be delivered, and by whom every wound can be mended.

Amen
