There is tenderness being shown the people of Basra to match the terror they have known for decades. But it is by God's mighty power that the forces of darkness will be routed from Basra. Pray for this. Pray for continued success by those liberating Basra in totally cleaning out that city of the thugs and butchers and pray for the people of Basra to have opportunities for justice!!!!

(Welcome, patriciaruth - prayer warrior! Pass the word if you think others would like to join the prayers for targeted locales (among other prayer calls - like the tremendous one you are leading.)
Prayer for Basra bump and for an end to the atrocities in Basra by the butchers there as we ask Almighty God to send the hosts of heaven - His Holy Angels - into that city to set free the captives there! In Jesus' name. Amen.
And by the way - from a man who knows the Koran inside and out - I learned that Jesus Christ and a Messiah are part of Muslim beliefs. This man has come to know that the Messiah that Muslims wait for IS NONE OTHER THAN JESUS - who is honored in their own writings. (I know - another subject) but God loves the people of Basra - and lets remember that the forces of hell have been encamped there a very long time. By HIS SPIRIT HE will drive them out as we hold that city up before Him in prayer. Remember also to pray the full armor of God on yourselves, your loved ones, and on the warriors on the ground and on the people of Basra - and pray that the blood of Jesus Christ shed for all to cover us, our loved ones, all that concern us = and the city of Basra preventing the gates of hell from prevailing against all so covered.
