A Christian prayer guide… for Ramadan

Ramadan begins tomorrow—are you ready?

Ramadan is, of course, an Islamic tradition, not a Christian one. For Muslims, it’s a month-long period of fasting and prayer. But some Christians are suggesting that we use the month of Ramadan as a time of special prayer for Muslims around the world.

Arab World Ministries has put together daily Ramadan prayer points for Christians, each of which highlights a specific prayer need “for Muslims, Muslim background believers or Christian workers based in the Arab world.” If you’d like to participate, just check back each day over the next month for a daily prayer point.

Mission Network News is also running a story about Ramadan if you’d like more background about it. If you know of other Christians or ministries who are using the month of Ramadan as an opportunity to pray for Muslims and Christians in the Arab world, please leave a comment below!

    Azam I will pray for you dear. I’m not sure if you are a Christian or not, (just observing from your name and where you are commenting), but we believe that Jesus died for our sins and He is able to heal us of any affliction or disease. I pray in Jesus name for the complete healing of your Diabetes and a full restoration of your liver and other organs. I also pray that you will come to draw closer to God through our Lord Jesus during this time, as He protects you and brings you out of sin into salvation. In Jesus name, Amen!

      I find the Christian prayer guide interesting,but in line with what God has been talking to me about.

      I have been having a conviction to set time apart 5 times in a day to pray and seek Gods face and i think if many Christians did that we would have a better relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ.

    My husband is a muslim (we were together before he bacame one) and I have participated in the Ramadan with him, however, my prayers have always been to open the hearts of the non-believers to our Lord Jesus Christ. I am very aware of the stregnth of fasting and prayer so I believe many muslims have been changed to accept Christ through these prayers. I had only done it once, but maybe I’ll do it again this year.
