Muslims pray Namaz (also called Salat) 5 times a day. These prayers are highly ritual and involve specific steps, physical positions (standing, bowing, etc.) and specific phrases. They are preceded by purification rituals and are encouraged to be done in groups. These prayers show great honor to God and doing them consistently requires dedication and devotion. At the same time they can simply be ritualistic actions done in obedience and are one way in nature. God does deserve reverence and devotion, but He is also the God who speaks. We are designed for relationship with Him and we are invited to share our hearts with God and to receive from Him. Today we ask the God who entered into our world to show His nearness to reveal Himself to the Muslims of Karachi. Let's pray for divine encounters where people hear His voice and respond to His call. Even during their Namaz.
“Yes, even today when they read Moses’ writings, their hearts are covered with a veil, and they do not understand” (2 Cor 3:15). Lord, remove the veil. Remove the blinders that keep them from seeing the truth of Christ. May the gospel liberate people from blindness. Jesus, your cross conquered the powers: the powers of death, Satan, and his kingdom. You have won the victory. And now, Lord, we call on your presence and power, your angels and ministers, to move in the spiritual realm in Karachi. As Daniel prayed and angels were dispatched and fought wars in the heavenly places, we believe your angels are on the move in Karachi, and we expect spiritual breakthrough this month of Ramadan."
