Praise Points:
We prayed for most of the points below during the last year or so, but the interesting facts in the reports linked above is that they touch the exact points we prayed for on many occasions, such as points 4, 6 and 7! Praise the Lord!!
1- The Spirit of the Lord spoke over Kuwait to be he first nation at Gulf to have religious freedom.
Please pray that these kinds of reports encourage His Highness the Amir to declair the religion freedom.
2- Pray for the approval of Christain schools in Kuwait.
3- Pray that the lot of citizinship be changed and new laws passed to give anyone the right to Kuwaiti citizenship, not only for Muslims.
4- We prayed before for legal permission for Christain schools and to allow the building of new churches. As the reports indicate, some progress is happening. Keep praying!
5- Pray for the freedom to evanglize out side the walls of the church.
6- We prayed before for Christian bookstores to get permission to open shops in Kuwait; the report urges the government to give permision for those bookshops.
7- Pray for the influence of the IPC (Islamic Presentation Committee) which, by law, are allowed to convert non-moslims to Islam, without giving the churches the right to reach out to Muslims and talk about Christ.
Friends, this is amazing testimony to how our specific prayers have been specifically answered and will continue to be answered as we continue to pray for Kuwait.
Thank you for continuing to pray with us. God is faithful!
