Prayer For Muslims
This morning, as I was listening to my local Christian radio station, they were announcing the coming of Ramadan, the Muslim holy month. The Christian community was being encouraged to pray for the Muslim people during this time.
That struck me as being very interesting. I understand that many people believe Islam to be a religion of peace, but I do not agree. I think most Muslims want to live at peace with the world, but the growing radical movement wants the destruction of all other religious groups. So here’s a religion in which many of its followers are seeking to kill Christians, but Christians are being asked to pray for them.
Sounds like the upside-down kingdom Christ talked about while on earth. Let’s pray hard!
“But I say, love your enemies! Pray for those who persecute you” (Matthew 5:44)!
