Thank you that your church there continues to grow. May it not be overcome by evil but instead may evil be overcome by good.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Iran executes more people per year than any other country except China, including many members of religious minorities. Ask God to intervene and stop this.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Remember those members of the church in Iran that have been detained and interrogated. Pray for their release and protection.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Pray for families affected by arrests and interrogations. Ask God to bring healing from the emotional and psychological impact that these detentions have upon the whole family.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Pray for the Christian leaders who serve the church in Iran. Ask God to strengthen and uphold them that they would continue to be a bold and courageous witness.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Lift to God all those Christians who remain in prison. Pray that the Iranian Church would overcome any fear by keeping their eyes firmly fixed on God in all circumstances.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Pray for peace inside Iran and with its neighbours. Pray that Iran would become a nation where each ethnic and faith group can live in peace with its neighbour.<\/li>\n\n<\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Iran has experienced a year of persecution, with arrests of Christian leaders especially pronounced.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"template":"","regions":[148,145],"class_list":["post-26080","prayer","type-prayer","status-publish","hentry","regions-iran","regions-middle-east-north-africa"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.csw.org.uk\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/prayer\/26080","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.csw.org.uk\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/prayer"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.csw.org.uk\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/prayer"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.csw.org.uk\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.csw.org.uk\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/prayer\/26080\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":40750,"href":"https:\/\/www.csw.org.uk\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/prayer\/26080\/revisions\/40750"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.csw.org.uk\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26080"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"regions","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.csw.org.uk\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/regions?post=26080"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
