July 20th - August
18th is Ramadan, the holiest time for a Muslim. Would you pray during these days
for fellow Christians living in Islamic-dominated countries, for strength when
they are harassed, for comfort when they are fearful, but most importantly that
they may be emboldened to share the Gospel when possible?
"Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God."
Day 26: August 14
Peacemakers realize that the peace can only be obtained by trusting in Jesus Christ.
Father, we know that true peace can only be found through faith in Christ. Father fill Your flock world-wide today with an abundance of godly peace, so that this Ramadan holy day, Laylat-al-Qadr (Night of Power) those who hunger for peace will seek and find it in You.

Day 25: August 13
Peacemakers delight in peace and attempt to advance peace everywhere.
Lord Jesus, the greatest act of peacemaking was Your sacrifice on the cross. We pray for those living in the midst of political hostility and chaos in the Palestinian Territories, that You fill them with Your peace during this Ramadan season. May this perfect peace be visible and draw those who do not know You into a relationship with You.

Day 24: August 12
Through their faith in Christ, the pure in heart sees God in all circumstances.
Father, today we ask You to increase the faith in persecuted Christians in Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan and Tajikistan, especially during this month of Ramadan. As they see Your clear presence in all their circumstances, enable them to bear up under pain and hardship, assured of Your goodness and power in their lives.

Day 23: August 11
The pure in heart live in confidence knowing that they will see Christ face-to-face in heaven.
Lord, today we lift up those who travel across difficult borders taking scriptures in countries where Your Word is banned. Father as they face the threat of beating, imprisonment and even death if discovered, fill their hearts with the sure knowledge that one day they will see You face-to-face when You will honor their faithfulness to You.

Day 22: August 10
The pure in heart have been given by the Spirit a new heart, one that desires God.
Thank You, Father, for the new hearts You have placed within us. Increase daily our desire for You. In countries like Northern Nigeria and Sudan where violence is reigning now, may believers be filled with a vision of You that their godly lives might be a testimony to their neighbors.

Day 21: August 9
The pure in heart know that their hearts are naturally impure and are in need of Christ's cleansing.
Father, our hearts grieve for brothers and sisters in Somalia and Mauritania where evil is all around them. Remind them daily during Ramadan of their own need for cleansing that they will begin each day with pure hearts, showing others Your Spirit that glows inside of them.

"Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy."
Day 20: August 8
The merciful forgive those who have wronged them and show mercy to all.
Father God, many who live with daily persecution have endured so much injustice and hardship. They have been imprisoned and family members have died simply because they worship You. Protect them from bitterness. As You have forgiven us all, during Ramadan release forgiveness in them toward perpetrators of violence.
