Pastors across Afghanistan are asking for urgent prayers after they spent two weeks watching the country fall into the hands of Islamist terrorists.
Josh Manley, a pastor of RAK Evangelical Church in the United Arab Emirates, said numerous church leaders across the country have reached out to him in recent days. He released an urgent call for prayer Monday in a blog post for the Christian ministry group 9Marks…
Manley said the Afghan pastor he was in contact with wrote to him, “This is where I am living. We are hidden right now in different areas.”
The situation is dire for Christians across the country after several officials and veterans have asserted the Biden administration botched the exit from Afghanistan this month after 20 years of U.S. combat operations and occupation…
Christians preaching God’s word across the country also shared their circumstances with Manley, who asked for prayers for them…
Mindy Belz at WORLD Magazine shared on Twitter over the weekend what she has heard from those who are certain to face the wrath of the Taliban…
After one pastor said he would bring up the issue to his congregation, and asked for specific quotes from letters, Belz replied, “One letter I’ve confirmed, to a leader now in hiding. ‘We know where you are and what you are doing’ is a rough translation & threatened to come after him.”…
Manley asked for prayers for those whose mission has called them to stay in the war-torn country, as well as for those who cannot leave as the Taliban prepares to institute brutal Sharia law.
“A number have specifically asked that we would pray for visas to get out of the country. So let me throw in an additional request to you, dear reader: Is helping secure a visa something that you or someone you know are in a position to help with? If so, do what you can,” Manley wrote…
“But pray especially for the Afghans who have no choice but to stay, such as one brother who has already spent time imprisoned for his faith in Afghanistan,” Manley stated….
As Pastor Manley requested, let’s join together and cover our brothers and sisters in Afghanistan in prayer: “We need to pray that our sovereign God would physically protect our brothers and sisters in Afghanistan. Boldly go to the throne of the universe and plead with our God to restrain evil and confuse the plans of evildoers.” “Pray also for physical provision.” Please share your prayers below.

LORD JESUS, I pray that these wicked ppl who plan to kill, would encounter angels round about and light so bright it would frighten them to disarm and to run and hide. We pray for the MIRACULOUS , now in Jesus name.
Jesus we plead for your mercy upon these desperate people.
As David prayed in the psalms, let their weapons be turned back upon themselves. !
Christian persecution worldwide has now hit overdrive. The purge in Afghanistan will be horrific!
Father, we plead for Your Divine Intervention in that region, but also wherever the church is suffering brutal torture, torment, and martyrdom. Have mercy on Your children and those that have yet to know Your saving Grace and Love. With everything that is going so very badly in America, we can still count our many blessings- especially that we still have a voice.
We are now asking for miracles. Human resources are impotent… without You many are doomed! PLEASE rescue all who are in grave peril. For Your Glory alone, in Jesus’ Name- AMEN.

“Human resources are impotent”
I so agree with this Santos. Earlier this morning I was thinking how powerless I felt but remembered “when I am weak, I am strong.” I can pray in strength or weakness but prayer is the power of God within me. He is the Miracle Maker!
God hears our prayers … Psalm 18:6
Jesus made access to God possible…John 3:16-18
Nothing will be impossible with God…Luke 1:37
We must pray and not lose heart…Hebrews 4:14-16
Dear Heavenly Father, I pray for all those trapped in Afghanistan, whether U.S. and allied service men and women, civilians, and our Afghan brothers and sisters who have been abandoned by both their government and ours. Lord, protect them all, spiritually, physically, and mentally. Surely they are under attacks both of this world and the spiritual. Lord, please, if there is anything we as intercessors can do beyond pray, make it known to us and let us act. Lord, a darkness is descending upon the world, not only in Afghanistan, but everywhere, even here. Let us reflect Your light in the darkness, let us move with purpose and courage. Let us all make a difference in Your name. Lord, let those who now walk through the valley of the shadow of death fear no evil, for You are with them. In Jesus precious name I pray, O’Lord, Amen.
Dear Heavenly Father, I pray that the plans of the enemy will be thwarted and foiled. Please provide safety and encouragement for the Afghanistan people and the Americans who are over there as well. You are their protector and shield. I pray that they know You are with them during this crisis and trial. Lord, we know You are a refugee and a mighty help in times of trouble. In Jesus name I pray, amen.
Dear Heavenly Father we know you are in control, you are powerful and just and righteous you are a comforting loving God and we lift up all those in Afghanistan our brothers and sisters who are afraid we pray for the innocent and we pray your hand in all of this Lord we pray your hand upon them provide all that they need we pray Lord and we pray for your guardian angels to be around them keeping them safe physically from the evil. We pray Lord that they will know you are with them, in Jesus name we trust you always amen
Dear GOD – You are their protector, their defender, their shield, their strength. I pray to YOU to protect them and equip them with their Faith in YOU. Please provide courage and safety for them. I pray that those who are so evil will see the Light in YOU and change their ways. May we grow stronger in Your image as we stand up for our Faith.
Heavenly Father, In Jesus’ name, protect your children from the evil Taliban and others like them. Hide then in the mighty fortress you provide through your name. “The name of the Lord is a strong tower; The righteous run to it and are safe.” Proverbs 18:10
Father, let Your children in Afghanistan and the Middle East, see the glory of the Lord, and Your mighty hand, at work on their behalf! Cause a great fear and confusion to come on the Taliban and in the enemies camp! “When the enemy comes in, like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against them! We pray Psalm 91 over every believer! Surround Your people here and there with Your guardian angels, your ministering angels and Your warring angels! Give wisdom, discernment, protection, to the pastors in Afghanistan, that only You can give!
Bring those that created this horrendous situation, from this country, this administration, and military leaders, to defeat. Help the American people to wake up and see the truth about what has really happened! Help us to see the evil and the motivation, that is in this government and military leadership (not our military men and women) . This is not who America is! Lift the spirit of fear, over each of Your people and fill us all with supernatural FAITH! Faith in our Holy, Faithful, Loving, Heavenly Father!
I just heard today, OUR COUNTRY WILL NOT TAKE ANY OF THESE CHRISTIAN AFGHANS IN!! Can you believe this!? Multiple other countries will, but, NOT THIS ADMINISTRATION!! What a betrayal!!
Our Father, we ask that You would protect and give great boldness to our Beloved ones in Afghanistan. Send Yo angels to protect and provide all provisions for Christians. Give them wisdom and understanding of what to do and where to go. Blind the eyes of the enemy and open the eyes of Your loved ones to see the Host of Heavens Army which are with them. Encourage them in Your love and protection. Give them Your Peace the surpasses understanding and cover them with Your wings.
Father, the Taliban want to “exterminate” all Christians. I pray Your divine protection over each Christian in Afghanistan. You call Israel the apple of Your eye and I believe all who love Your Son, Jesus The Messiah, are considered the same. You said to Zechariah, “You will crush those who harm Your most precious possession.“ I pray the whole world would see the wonders of Your loving devotion and protection as you hide every Christian from all harm. I humbly pray You will arise, O LORD, and confront the Taliban! Bring them to their knees; deliver Your people from these wicked men. I make this appeal in the Name of The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit. Amen
Zechariah 2:8-9
Show the wonders of Your loving devotion, You who save by Your right hand those who seek refuge from their foes. Keep them as the apple of Your eye; hide them in the shadow of Your wings from the wicked who assail them, from their mortal enemies who surround them.…Arise,O LORD, confront the Taliban! Bring them to their knees; deliver the Christians from the wicked …
Psalm 17:7-9,13 personalized
Dear Lord God please intervene in Afghanistan and protect the Christians and Afghan people and the Americans there, deliver them from evil, and deliver them from the wicked enemy, tear the Taliban down, foil their plans. Please provide for the Christian people financially. Storm the country with your presence. We count on you only to save your people. Help them to be strong in you. Show mercy to them. Don’t abandon them. You say, “ I will never leave you nor forsake you” .
Protect them, shelter them, give them refuge under your wings, command your angels concerning them to guard them in all their ways.
“Because he loves me, says the Lord, I will rescue him, I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name. He will call
Upon me and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him.” I claim Psalm 91 for them.
In Jesus’ mighty name🙏
Jesus, please go there to save their lives.
Lord Jesus, Great Shepherd, Your sheep need Your provision and protection, physical and spiritual. Come to them, send Your angels to their side. The wolves are surrounding them and the false shepherd, our president, has run away. We know You are the make-a-way God and we plead for You to rescue the sheep who know Your voice, the only voice they will follow. Let their faithfulness testify to the lost for you. Bless them greatly in every aspect of their lives. Grant them the peace and courage that no psychology can explain because they are Your supernatural gifts. Grant them the ability to forgive the evil they are threatened with and keep them firmly in Your hand so none are lost. Show Your love for them all the ways You can; let them feel Your Presence always about them. Be Thou their vision whatever befall, Lord God Almighty and Ruler of All. By the power of Your Blood and the authority of Your Name I pray. Amen.
I was on a call last night with someone who’s working to get some Christians out of Afghanistan. Praying often!
Lord Jesus, we join with Pastor Manley in prayer. We pray that the sovereign God of the universe would restrain the evil Taliban. We pray that the plans of the evildoers would be confused and foiled. We pray a prayer of Your great protection over our brothers and sisters in Afghanistan. Please, keep them safe from all harm, and give them courage and may their faith be kept strong by Holy Spirit. In Jesus’ name.
Lord God you are their protector. You are their defender, you are their shield, you are their strong tower! I pray for provision physically, mentally, emotionally, and most important spiritually. Restrain the evil oh God, confuse the plans of the enemy.Our trust is in You.
I am an intercessor for the nations. I continually cry out to God Almighty to surround my brothers and sisters in Afghanistan with His protecting Angel armies. My heart grieves for the people of Afghanistan who are now under Taliban rule. I too pray that The Lord will send confusion and discord into the enemies camp.
Lord , how much longer until You avenge the blood of the saints ? Please protect the people of Afghanistan especially our brothers and sisters in Christ who earnestly desire to serve You. I pray You provide a passage for them out. For those who You have called to stay, please give them strength and help them be a light in a dark place. Lord I ask forgiveness for anything this administration has played in this. You know all that was spoken in hushed rooms and I ask that truth be brought out. I pray that all Christians around the world will be in prayer and action for our brothers and sisters in Christ. I pray against the sons of darkness in the taliban whose plans are based on destruction and I ask that you reach their hearts and turn from their ways. If they will not turn , I ask that all the progress they have made be destroyed and the country of Afghanistan will be taken from them.
In Jesus name
Amen
I will pray throughout the day and in the days/ months ahead! May our gracious God protect those in danger and may those who do not know Jesus as their Savior come to know Him through the faith/witness of those who are in danger!
Oh Great and Awesome God, Shame of Face belongs to us. Forgive the United States Government Lord, forgive arrogance, forgive cold hearts, and use this tragedy to turn us toward You ,Father, You see it all. I was so humbled watching World Prayer last night and listening to the Women you have raised up to help those in Afghanistan. They are grieved and exhausted in working on behalf of those abandoned and desperate to leave. One was an ambassador, one, an attorney working with immigration, one a former missionary who spent years there. They all Love You and are Deborahs and Esthers standing in a horrific time for your beloved and all people. One told us that in trying to help arrange for a group ofPastors and families leave they said ThankYou, but NO ThankYou, we will not leave our congregations!
Those Pastors have such love for You and their flocks! They are representing YOU well Father! May Holy Spirit enfold in Your beautiful wings and sing over His people. Father, we ask for protection, wisdom, and discernment for these Pastors.
Yeshua, You know and love these people, Thank You for what You are Accomplishing. May many be drawn to You through this tragedy!
An organization, Spirit of America.org is one organization sending aide in any way they can. We can donate. There are more organizations we will find later today. Praise God,The Christian Church in Pakistan is also helping!
Father God, this situation is dire and is becoming more and more heart wrenching as info. is released from the people who are living this nightmare. Father, I ask You for Your divine protection. Hide Your children who have faithfully served You being the physical manifestation of Jesus in Afghanistan, bringing the Light into the darkness. Father, confuse the Taliban armies just as You did in days of old as You protected Your people. Father I pray for Your Spirit to arise, fill the hearts of Your people with peace and cast out the fear of the enemy. Father, Psalm 103:17 says : but Lord, Your endless love stretches from one eternity to the other, unbroken and unrelenting toward those who fear you and those who now before You. Your faithfulness to keep EVERY GRACIOUS PROMISE YOU’VE MADE passes from parents to children to grandchildren and beyond. YOU ARE FAITHFUL TO ALL THOSE WHO FOLLOW YOUR WAYS AND KEEP YOUR WORD.
Father I put You in remembrance of Your Word, your faithfulness to those who love and serve you, going where You’ve called them and living their lives in service to the King of Kings. I lift them to You Father and ask for Your mercy and protection in this hour. Father, just as You were faithful to bring the Israelites out of Egypt and You called the Red Sea to swallow Pharoahs army, I pray for another mighty miracle for these Afghanistan today. Father, the Taliban is Your enemy’s army. Unleash the Angel Armies of Heaven on this demonic regime in Jesus name!!!
Father as I watched the Pastor’s video on Twitter I was appalled to read so many comments of distain and lack of interest or concern over the plight of these people. Father, forgive them, but OPEN THEIR EYES AND HEARTS, because this is an obvious sign of the times. Your Word says that in the last days that men would be lovers of themselves and their hearts would be cold. Father, May You see fit through the prayers and repentance of Your children to be gracious and merciful for just a little longer. The fields are ripe for harvest, Holy Spirit move over the globe and unmask the eyes the enemy has blinded, awaken the hearts of those who can still be moved in Jesus name. Father we give You all glory and honor for what You are doing and we are so honored to join You in battle. Be glorified and magnified in Your Ecclesia today King Jesus
Almighty defender and loving Father who knows all things. You have All power in heaven & earth and under the earth. Save now! Will you Please cover your children and those soon to trust in your name? Just one word from you and it is done. We call in our day of trouble for our dear brothers & sisters Jesus. May their faith not fail but grow strong in the power of your might. Confident in your great name!
We pray for the children of these Christian families to be rescued by You Father God, to witness and give first-hand accounts of your love and compassion for them. To experience your miraculous saving power that your church will grow and expand.
Cast down the evil. Bind the evil inside these people set to steal, kill, & destroy like their father the devil. Free them Holy Father by your great love & mercy.
It is a time for action saints! Write and/or call your senators and representatives and insist that joe biden and obama be arrested immediately for treason! Biden knew what would happen when he ordered the military out of Afghanistan! He left Americans and Afghanis to fend for themselves. This would also happen in our American streets if we allow these filthy thugs to defund our military and police! WAKE UP PEOPLE! OPEN YOUR EYES! IF YOU DON’T BELIEVE ME ASK GOD IF WHAT I AM SAYING IS TRUE!
This plan has been in the making since obama freed the taliban leader that has taken over Kabul! Yes, he was in American custody and obama freed him and other terrorists to be free to eventually attack America again. (Remember 911!) We are the ultimate goal of the taliban. It is time to wake up the MIGHTY men and the Wailing Women to cry before our GOD day and night until these, vipers and snakes are behind bars for life! Our LORD called them these names and so do I! 1 John 4:17 “Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as HE IS, so are we in this world! Ecclesiastes 3:8 “a time to love, and a time to hate; A TIME OF WAR, and a time of Peace.” It’s TIME FOR WAR SAINTS! Contact your senators and representatives, both democrat and republican in the states and federal government daily. Contact your governors and city governments. Insist that action be taken to secure our borders! Insist that illegal immigrants not be allowed in your cities! The taliban and other terrorists are flying into Mexico and entering into America illegally across the border. Citizens may have to patrol the borders to protect America just like during the Revolutionary war! Insist that our military and police be NOT defunded! Let your voices be heard loud and often! Fear not! For GOD is with us! FATHER GOD please send YOUR angels to protect us and to fight this battle for us here in America and for those people in Afghanistan! We have no might against these wicked people dear GOD, so we will stand still and see the salvation of the LORD for us; with the whole armour of GOD covering us, our families, our nation, the Cubans, the Haitians, the Afghanis, and many other countries as we stand in the gap and make up the hedge for those that are weak and/or don’t know YOU yet as LORD and SAVIOUR. Please send laborers to the people across the world that don’t know JESUS as LORD as we claim salvation for them in JESUS MIGHTY Name! Amen!
This breaks my Heart. I’ll will commit to fast and prayer for God’s church. Jesus is there with you.
Father God we make supplication for your children Lord, we ask for miracles at this time that these executioners will have revelation that You are the true God, just like Paul on his way to Damascus. Freeze their swords in place Lord that they are not able to proceed. Let your children sing songs of worship to You. We implore you for a miracle that their bodies supernaturally be protected and lifted up to Heaven that no blood is shed. That the world will witness the power of the Almighty Supreme Authority that we serve. There were 4 not 3 in the fire , Lord hold their hands that they feel your presence, your love and peace, I know You will not abandon your children, protect them Jesus by the power of your Holy Spirit who lives in them. Your will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. In Jesus name .
Eloquent call to battle Ana! This situation is being compared to the tragic withdrawal from Vienam, but it also brings to mind Dunkirk in World War II. When you speak of the 4 in the furnace please read this article by George Will.

That miracle was also fruit of Smith Wigglesworth’s obedient Intercessory prayer movement in England.
The debacle in Afghanistan is satan’s deliberate attempt to cover the real culprits of the 911 attack in New York City – the Saudis – as the 20th annivesary draws near.
Excellent article. Our son is in a Christian classic school where he is reading the classics that are no where to be found in the public schools. As a 6th grader we read George Orwells Animal Farm last year. Whenever I hear the msm tell lies I keep quoting “Four legs good two legs bad, four legs good two legs better.” Those whom have never read the book have no idea what I’m saying. I encourage them to read it. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the input Lisa. I recommend getting a copy of “The American Patriot’s Bible” edited by Dr Richard Lee as a resource for your son as he starts learning American History. Also Guttenberg.org has a lot of older books digitized that can be searched and downloaded free.
Have a Blessed
