30-Days of Prayer for the Muslim World Ramadan 2010 / 1431: August 11 - September 09
SPECIAL REPORT on SUDAN
For Wednesday 18 August, Ramadan 2010. "Loving Muslims Through Prayer"
Christians in Sudan have asked us for prayer. Both north and south Sudan are preparing for war. The situation is complex, the problems many. Please ask prayer networks you know to be involved in prayer for Sudan.
Background:
* South Sudan is to vote on whether it will choose independence or be part of a united Sudan on January 9th, 2011.
* South Sudan has much oil, but it is exported from North Sudan's ports. North Sudan is under Sharia law, South Sudan is "Christian" and animist.
* There is little unity in Sudan. But the real eye-opener is to read the forums where open hatred is spewed between North and South Sudanese. (I have listed examples on the web page.)
Prayer Starters Specific to War in Sudan:
* Pray that the Christian leaders of South Sudan can hear clearly the Lord's will regarding Sudan's future.
* Pray that grass-roots reconciliation can become widespread between the tribes of Sudan and the many hurt people within this vast country.
* Pray the surrounding countries will stay out of Sudan and stay out of this complicated referendum.
* Pray for the various people groups / tribes of Sudan (we have several listed on site).
* Pray that there would be a fair and comprehensive deal for both South and North on the splitting of the oil wealth.
