Converts Rejected by Family

[4] prayers in [1] nation have been posted for Aziza and Jibek.

Two women have been abandoned by their families for their faith in Christ. Aziza is 17 years old and was kicked out of her home for placing her trust in Christ. A church allowed her to stay in their building for six months while she finished high school and helped her receive counseling. Aziza now hopes to attend college in the fall. Jibek, who is in her late 60s, was also opposed by her family when she became a Christian. (Her situation was previously shared on iCommitToPray.) Earlier this year, Jibek fell, broke her back and moved to another part of the country for treatment. While there, she could more freely listen to Christian services even though she was bedridden. When her family learned that local pastors have been trying to encourage her, they cut off all contact. Front-line workers request prayer that these women will be encouraged and grow in their faith.

  • Lord Jesus Christ, I pray Jibek and Aziza receive Your plans for their lives. I also ask that front line workers will be able to reach Jibek again, heal her back, and speak to her family by way of Your Spirit. May Aziza succeed in everything she does. May her dream colleges accept her, may she have an steady income, and a place to stay. Amen.

  • Beloved Father: Please pour out Your Holy Spirit upon Aziza & Jibek! Strengthen them in faith. Please heal Jibek that she may walk again. Please provide for Aziza as she seeks to go to college. Please soften the hearts of their family members that many would turn to Jesus & welcome back our sisters. We pray these things in the Holy Name of Jesus. Amen.
