Because of many internal and external influences, including Iran, Lebanon is politically fragile. Despite this, Lebanon has openings for the advancement of the Gospel. In the area of education, especially, there is tremendous opportunity. With the current unrest in neighboring Syria, Prime Minster Najib Miqati expressed his need to stay completely disconnected from the conflict. The Prime Minister stated, "We are trying our utmost to distance Lebanon from regional developments, especially those in Syria."
Pray that the leaders in Lebanon will recognize the need for change and move in a positive direction that opens the country up for the Good News and that is favorable to the Christian community.
Pray for the Church in Lebanon to be bold in their witness.
Also pray that those opposing the Gospel will fail. (I Samuel 14:6)
