Praying for Muslims

There are 7.8 billion people on this planet. Only 2.6 billion of them are Christians. We will consider blog post by blog post ways to pray for the remaining 5.2 billion people on the planet. 

There are 1.8 billion Muslims in the world. Today, we are going to focus on praying for them. 

Pray for Muslims to encounter Christ through dreams, visions, and conversations.

Pray for Christians to engage in respectful dialogue with Muslims, where questions can be asked, considered, and answered.

Pray for Muslims to encounter and study Christian resources, such as radio stations, books, and other media.

Each year, there is a prayer guide called 30 Days of Prayer for the Muslim World. This is a great resource for those who don't know what to pray for Muslims.

Books such as Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus by Nabeel Qureshi and No God But One also by Nabeel Qureshi are wonderful ways to learn more about one Muslim's journey to Christ and his struggles along the way. 

As Christians, we believe there is only one way to heaven, namely through faith in Jesus Christ, so we ought to be interceding for those who do not accept Him as Savior and Lord. More than praying for Muslims to become Christians, we ought to also be sharing the Good News with them, building friendships with them, and walking alongside them as we show them who Jesus is.
