Prayer Fuel
City of Light: Ramadan day 20
Islam has a high reverence for God. One might compare their understanding of God to much of the Old Testament where God is all powerful, fully revered and only somewhat knowable by the most holy.
We know that God Almighty wants an intimate relationship with His followers because He is a good Father who knows the hairs on our head (Luke 12:7). Lord, let all new followers of Christ in Karachi be filled with joy at knowing the intimacy of God, who calls us "beloved".
Praying today:
“‘Come, O breath, from the four winds! Breathe into these dead bodies so they may live again.’ So I spoke the message as he commanded me, and breath came into their bodies. They all came to life and stood up on their feet—a great army” (Ezekiel 37:9b-10). Lord, with one phrase–‘Lazarus! Come forth!’—you raised a dead man; and with one phrase–‘Come, O breath, breathe into these dead bodies that they may live again’–you raised a dead nation; you reconstituted them into an army: the forces of Yahweh.
And today, we join in accord with your Word: Karachi, live! Receive the breath of the Lord, the Spirit of the triune God. Be raised to life. Return and live. Be dead no longer; slumber no longer; be sick no more. Return to Life, Karachi, and live!
