Prayer for Belarus

This morning, I prayed for Belarus, a former republic of the Soviet Union until August of 1991. Belarus was described as the "last true dictatorship in the centre of Europe" in June of 2005 by U.S. Secretary of State, Condoleezza Rice.

PRAYER:
God of peace and hope, we pray for the people of Belarus, a people under the one remaining authoritarian regime in Eastern Europe. We pray that the Bride of Christ would rise up and thrive there and that you would be at work in supernatural, subversive ways, strengthening your people and using them to speak hope and life and light into the lives of their fellow Belarusians. We pray that you would raise up the Belarusian church to meet the unique challenges of your Kingdom in that particular cultural and political setting.
