A place where church leaders were arrested and places of worship demolished. That was the story for the Sudanese people, as the country endured decades of Islamist military rule under the leadership of former President Omar al Bashir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The al Bashir regime was overthrown in 2019 following nationwide protests, and for a couple of years there was hope for change. We celebrated signs of progress, such as the abolition of the crime of apostasy (leaving another religion \u2013 in this case, Islam) and some positive steps taken by the civilian-led transitional government to reform laws and policies enacted by al Bashir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But last October the military took over in a coup, and a deeply uncertain future lies ahead. Repression that was commonplace during the al Bashir era is returning. We\u2019re especially concerned for Sudan\u2019s citizens of all faiths and none, who have faced discrimination, harassment and violence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u4e86\u89e3\u8be6\u60c5\u8bf7\u8bbf\u95ee <a href=\"https:\/\/www.csw.org.uk\/zh\/our_work_country_sudan.htm\/\" target=\"_blank\">csw.org.uk\/sudan<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 700\">Every day this week, pray the following scriptures over Sudan:<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But let justice roll on like a river,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">righteousness like a never-failing stream!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>Amos 5:24<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Lord bless you and keep you;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">the Lord make his face shine on you<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">and be gracious to you;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">the Lord turn his face towards you<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">and give you peace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>Numbers 6:24-26<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><u><span style=\"background-color: rgb(248, 248, 248)\"><a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/2022-05-28-prayer-diary.pdf\">\u4e0b\u8f7d\u672c\u5468\u7948\u7977\u65e5\u8bb0\u7684\u53ef\u6253\u5370\u7248\u672c\u3002.<\/a><\/span><\/u><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Daily prayer points for Sudan.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":8391,"template":"","regions":[152,157],"class_list":["post-26598","prayer","type-prayer","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","regions-sub-saharan-africa","regions-sudan"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.csw.org.uk\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/prayer\/26598","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.csw.org.uk\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/prayer"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.csw.org.uk\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/prayer"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.csw.org.uk\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/prayer\/26598\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":41268,"href":"https:\/\/www.csw.org.uk\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/prayer\/26598\/revisions\/41268"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.csw.org.uk\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8391"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.csw.org.uk\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26598"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"regions","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.csw.org.uk\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/regions?post=26598"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
