Persevering for the Sake of Christ
Andrew Dexter

Response in Prayer:

1.) As persecution increases pray that God would fill the hearts of believers with His perfect peace, as well as the boldness to continue sharing the Good News of the Gospel with love and courage.

2.) Pray that those who recently come to faith in Christ will be deeply rooted in solid Biblical teaching, and that the Lord would raise up Godly mentors to disciple them.

3.) Pray for those who are responsible for the ongoing opposition against the country's Christians, asking the Lord to reveal Himself to them.
