Convert's Family Faces Spiritual Attack

The family of a new Christian is enduring unexplained health issues believed to be a demonic attack. Zaynab and her family fled violence in Iraq in 2017, and she became a follower of Christ through the kindness of Christians. (Her story was shared in VOM’s December 2025 magazine.) But her former Sufi community has continually pressured Zaynab to revert. Members of the mystical Sufi community wanted Zaynab’s daughter to marry the son of a Sufi imam. Zaynab and her husband refused, and she believes the Sufis used witchcraft to cause several family members to become physically and emotionally incapacitated to the point of hospitalization. “Please pray for her and her family, as we believe they are under a demonic attack,” said a front-line worker. He also asked for prayer for Zaynab’s husband to become a follower of Christ and for the entire family to experience the love and power of Christ.
