‘IRAN 30’ LAUNCHED – THOUSANDS JOIN IN PRAYER!

Dear Friends,

‘IRAN 30’ LAUNCHED – THOUSANDS JOIN IN PRAYER!

IRAN 30, a new prayer guide published by Elam Ministries, has been launched this month to help Christians pray for Iran at this tumultuous time in its history. Already nearly 50,000 copies have been ordered by individuals, churches and mission organizations. The books will be used by Christians around the world to intercede for the people of Iran in the coming months. Elam Ministries hopes to see at least 100,000 books distributed by the end of 2009. IRAN 30 can be ordered now at www.iran30.org.

Many leaders have endorsed the project. Author and speaker Ravi Zacharias says: “I commend this much needed and sensitive prayer guide.” George Verwer, the founder of Operation Mobilization calls IRAN 30 “a relevant powerful prayer presentation” and says, “it needs to be flooded out across the world.”

Durwood Snead, Director of GlobalX at North Point Community Church, a mega-church in Atlanta, Georgia, plans on using the prayer guide with their intercessors saying, “IRAN 30 is a tremendous resource to help educate our people and focus our prayer efforts for Iran. I can’t think of a more strategic way to pray for the Muslim world.”

In the UK, John Coles, director of New Wine which is one of the largest network of churches in the UK has encouraged Christians to use the book, saying: “Iran 30 will touch both your mind and your heart as you read about the country, people, culture, and religious persecution in Iran… its practical approach will inspire and guide.”

With 30 very short, easy to read sections organized under four key subject areas, IRAN 30 is designed to help readers discover what is happening behind the scenes and enable them to pray effectively over 30 days.

It comes at a time when the stakes are very high in Iran and Iranian Christians are pleading for prayer from the global church. Says a leader of a fast growing house church network in Iran, “The situation is very bad… [but] we will stand with our people because we love them and strongly believe each one of them could be a child of God in his Kingdom. Now, more than ever, we need people to pray for us.”

Elam Ministries has been working on this book for several months, and in God’s providence, it is being released at this turbulent time in Iranian history. Sam Yeghnazar, Founder of Elam Ministries says, “Iranians have shown the world their aspiration for freedom and hope in life. I believe we are potentially on the brink of possibly one of the greatest mission opportunities of our time. As Christians pray, Iran will be transformed.”

The book will soon be available in Spanish, Portuguese and other languages. There is no cost to order the book, though though donations can be made to help cover expenses. Churches are encouraged to get the book for their congregations and use it together for a month of prayer.

  “Prepare yourself
  now, for I will give you this 5 year window. I will (then) lift this
  grace from this area but I will have a people so developed and sent
  out from here that they will rally in prayer. The harvest, even in
  Iran, will come forth because of this work! I will use this place as
  a womb to bring forth the harvest of the nations. I am going to
  create harvest praying in your midst. You will set up a prayer
  meeting called ‘the prayer meeting of the nations’. You will see
  nations come forth and birthed. Enter into your grace now!”..Said the Lord
