With the outbreak of violence between Kyrgyz and ethnic Uzbeks in Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan finds itself caught in the geographic middle (a thin arm of Tajikistan runs between Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan). That narrow piece of Tajikistan is also suspected of harboring Islamic militants, some of whom have sought refuge there from Afghanistan (a neighbor to the south).
Pray for this troubled, poverty-stricken, potentially violent nation.
Ask the Lord to establish and maintain peace throughout this region, restraining terrorism and genocide, and providing peace and hope for the people of Tajikistan.
Pray for the Good News of Jesus Christ to be preached and demonstrated by Believers and for those who are suffering from the effects of war and ethnic hatred to put their hope and trust in Him.
Invite God's Kingdom to come to Tajikistan during this critical time, as it is in heaven.
