30 Days of Prayer for the Mulsim World

Today marks the beginning of Ramadan. Ramadan is the 9th month of the Mulsim calendar, and it is during this month that Muslims participate in fasting from dawn til dusk to offer more prayers to Allah. During Ramadan, Muslims ask forgiveness for past sins, pray for guidance and help in refraining from everyday evils, and try to purify themselves through self-restraing and good deeds.

This is a guide for Christiasn to pray through the entire month of Ramadan... prayer for Muslims to come to know a saving relationship with Jesus Christ. This 30 Days of Prayer Guide has been taken from this website. Be sure to visit their website for even more information. We hope and pray that you follow along and join us in prayer for the millions of Muslims all over the world.

Introduction

This call to prayer for Muslims originally came during a meeting of several Christian leaders in the Middle East in 1992. Several believers involved in an international movement strongly sensed God’s desire to call

as many Christians as possible to pray for the Muslim world. A prayer movement was planned to coincide with the Islamic month of Ramadan. It was intended that “30 Days” should be during the month of Ramadan for at

least two reasons: (1) as a means for Christians to identify themselves with Muslims during a fixed period of the year, (2) to call upon God’s sovereign

intervention in the lives of Muslims during a time of the year when they

are particularly religious. Please note that praying during the month of

Ramadan does not mean that we conform ourselves to the Muslim practices

of fasting and prayer.

As believers in Jesus we disagree with Islamic ideas, theology and practice

in several areas. However, the “30 Days” movement emphasizes God’s love

for Muslims. We encourage all believers in the Messiah to cultivate a spirit

of humility, love, respect and service toward Muslims.

The goal of this prayer guide is to inspire and direct each reader as he

or she intercedes for the Muslim world. However, it is far from being completely

informative. We encourage you to seek further information and

so gain a greater understanding of the Islamic world and God’s activities

among Muslims. Again this year we have included a number of testimonies

to encourage your faith as you pray. God loves Muslims. He wants them to

come to know Him.

The Editors

Each year in the “30 Days” prayer material we try to inform our readers more about

Islam. This year we have a special focus concerning the family of Mohammed. We hope

that you will gain insight into the life and family of this man who continues to greatly

influence Muslims through his preaching and example. In addition, we are trying to

focus much of our prayer efforts on some of the most remote and largely unreached

Muslim peoples. God has not forgotten them. God is awesome, and He knows the hairs

on the head of every individual who is Muslim, Buddhist, Hindu, Jewish or Christian.

Subjects and prayer topics in this edition of 30 Days:

• Christian and Muslim differences, misunderstandings, attitudes and false ideas

• Prayer for people with names taken from the family of Mohammed

• Prayer for peoples, cities, tribes, tongues and nations

• Special focus on unreached peoples without any committed Gospel witness

• What is it like to be a “secret believer”?

• Ministries are needed: healing, deliverance, etc.

• Testimonies of people who have found new life in the Messiah
