The church is facing increasing hostility. Though the national authorities try to look neutral, in reality they are eager to win support from Muslim parties. Muslim extremist groups continue to grow more violent towards Christians and are experiencing no resistance from the authorities. Muslim Extremists have found an ally in the blasphemy law, which they use to legitimise their actions. In the lead-up to Easter, police discovered five bombs buried near a Catholic church near Jakarta. The bombs, which were due to explode on Good Friday, were successfully defused.
Pray:
- In September, a Muslim Extremist attacked a church in Java, wounding 27 people. Pray for their healing.
- Attacks against church buildings are a regular occurrence. Pray that the authorities will do more to bring those responsible to account.
- For Open Doors training programs designed to strengthen Muslim-background believers.
Lord, we pray for Divine protection, salvation, and light for believers and Christians in Indonesia. May all those suffering persecution be find strength, refuge, and deliverance in Your Name, May they experience Divine Intervention and healing in Christ Jesus. We pray and agree for Open Door training programs to strengthen and develop believers, protection for the churches/buildings targeted. May you show salvation in Christ to those who persecute.
Lord, thank you for this person who already prayed for my brothers and sisters in Indonesia. Thank you that I got an opportunity to go last year and see first hand what these people deal with. I ask that you would lead and guide the Church in Indonesia, that they would love you so deeply and intimately that you overflow out of them into their families, communities, cities, islands, and country.
Make yourself known among these people. They are so diverse, from the Javanese to the Papuans. From the rich Chinese business-owners to the poor natives. Unite the church through your Holy Spirit and show the world how you can bring people from such different backgrounds together in your great love. For the name and renown of Jesus, amen.
Father (God Most High) Prayers of Salvation for those living in Indonesia and for Christian Believers with Supernatural /Divine Protection and Deliverance through and during persecution and oppression and that they do not deny the Salvation in the name of Yeshua (Jesus). May the Light of the Truth penetrate this region with the Glorious Gospel of Jesus Christ, that it may yield a great Harvest of Souls for salvation in Christ. May the Spirit of the Lord, and the God of All Comfort be with them in Him in this region of the world that the Refuge in His Name be known among the nations. (He Sent His Word and Healed them from destruction) Psalm 107:20. ~~Be Faithful to Death & He will give you a Crown of Life (Revelation 2:10)
