Day 18

IMB Pray

Day 18

The Bosnian War of 1992 to 1995 was a catalyst for a resurgence of Islam in Bosnia. In recent years, Islam has continued to strengthen, and Muslims are doubling down on religious practice and are becoming more insular.

Pray people will not further ingrain themselves in Islam. Pray that the country remains peaceful, and those who have been involved in Bible studies will continue to meet, and that struggling churches will find ways to minister. Most of all, pray that Muslims realize that their works will not help them when they meet the Lord.

Thank you for praying

Thank you for joining us in prayer for Muslims during Ramadan. As we hear of updates, we will share them in the "Answer to Prayer" section on the app.

Day 31

Muslims conclude the last day of Ramadan with Eid al-Fitr (the Festival of Fast-Breaking). Entire neighborhoods may come together over a huge feast, complete with fireworks and gifts, to celebrate their endurance and generosity toward others during Ramadan. However, when life goes back to normal after the feast, many Muslims report feeling sad or disappointed. Some hoped their fasting would yield a felt nearness to Allah, but instead they feel just as distant as they did before Ramadan began. Pray for God to use the days following Ramadan to steer Muslims toward truth. Ask God to put believers in their path who can share the gospel and invite them into eternal assurance of salvation.

Day 30

As Ramadan comes to an end, it is tradition for children to return home and ask their parents for forgiveness for wrongs they have committed. Pray that as they seek to honor their earthly fathers, they will see the living God as Father. Pray for the parents approached by their children. Ask God to use this tradition to help them think about the ways they have fallen short of Allah’s holiness and whether they can obtain guaranteed forgiveness from him. Pray that this leads them to the Word and a believer who can share how their sins can be forgiven.
