<transcy>Pray for us! - Learn to intercede for the persecuted Church (Priez pour nous! - Apprendre à intercéder pour l'Église persécutée)</transcy>
How do we pray for situations that happen thousands of miles from our personal concerns? How to intercede for the persecuted Church ... and persevere? Michel Varton, member of Open Doors for 36 years, including several years as director, draws on his great experience to encourage and nourish our prayer. What to pray? Why pray when God is sovereign? Will my voice change anything? What if God does not seem to be responding? How to do it?
The author shows how God's people interceded, in the Bible and throughout its history. He also delivers a testimony directly from the field. At the end of the chapter, you will find concrete ideas for putting your intercession into practice.
