You are here: Home / Prayer Fuel / Pain in Basrah, Iraq

August 21, 2010 By Clint Scott Leave a Comment

Pain in Basrah, Iraq

Al Basrah, (also called Basorah) is the capital of Basra Province in Iraq with an estimated population of about 3.8 million. Basrah is a significant port. It is estimated that at least 90% of the city is built on oil fields. The gas and petrol fumes are part of the daily life of Basrah’s residents. About 20% of the population are Sunni Muslim but the vast majority are Shiites. A very small number are believers.

Prayer Starters:

  • Pray that God would raise up officials and community leaders who seek the well being of their people more than their own prosperity and self indulgence.
  • Pray especially for leaders to have inspiration, wisdom and courage to take the urgent steps necessary to solve the many health, garbage collection and sewage problems. The people of the city are suffering greatly.
  • Pray for breakthroughs in the area of education and jobs.  Some schools are very overcrowded and lack basic facilities like toilets.
  • Many people live in fatalism and can see no future. Pray that many of Basrah’s Muslims would encounter the Messiah, the giver of hope, through television, radio and personal witness.

Facing Extinction: Christians of Iraq

Nonie Testimony

From August 9th – September 9th 2010 Worldwide Mission Fellowship will be praying that Muslims around the world going through Ramadan will turn to Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour, this is in conjunction with similar prayer strategies around the world supported by Open Doors and 30 days of Prayer. Our ultimate prayer is for their salvation. The site will be updated daily at 05:45 GMT to coincide with our early morning prayer meeting so you can join us in prayer wherever you are.
