30 Ways for Muslims to encounter Christ

The Islamic doctrine of abrogation means that some verses in the Quran can be “canceled out” by later verses. This is contrary to the unchanging nature of God in the Bible.

“Because God wanted to make the unchanging nature of his purpose very clear to the heirs of what was promised, he confirmed it with an oath. God did this so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope offered to us may be greatly encouraged. We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure…” (Hebrews 6:17–19)

Today we pray for people in Niger to see the unchanging nature of God, that it is impossible for him to lie, and to make him the anchor for their souls.

Intercede on Behalf of the Lost

“Lucius” had a vivid dream about the son of a Muslim man who runs a small boutique in his neighborhood. In the dream, the boy was reciting Quranic verses that his father, who is an imam, had taught him. Although Lucius has never met this child, in the dream he placed his hand on his head and prayed for him.

Lucius asks for opportunities to share the Gospel with this family and persistence to pray for them.

Pray that the Lord would touch this little boy’s heart and draw his entire family to a believing faith in Jesus Christ.

Liberty to the Captives

Each of us who comes to Christ must repent of and renounce every pact, promise, or identity we held before faith in Christ. Join us in praying for our brothers and sisters in Christ from a Muslim background as they repent of their former identity as Muslims. This prayer is inspired by chapter 7 and 8 of Liberty to the Captives by Mark Durie

We can have confidence in the Word of God. “All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work” (2 Timothy 3:16).

Pray for Christians from a Muslim background in Niger to find their confidence in the truth of the Bible and all that it says about Christ.

Pray for a Nigerien Believer

Pray for “Comrade” a church leader who has an infection that has spread from his tooth into his jaw and cheek. Comrade is experiencing severe pain and the infection is spreading rapidly. Pray that as Comrade pursues treatment, he will be healed from his ailments.

Pray that the Lord would relieve his pain and draw near to him during this time.

Pray Miracles from the Bible

“…an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.” All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet: “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel” (which means “God with us”).” (Matthew 1:20-23)

Pray that Nigeriens will experience the miracle of God’s presence in their lives.

Islam teaches an emotional worldview that Muslims are superior to non-Muslims. Lord, help believers in Niger shed the sins that so easily entangle them and instead put on their "new self" finding their value comes from You.

Muslims acknowledge Jesus as a prophet from God. Let their curiosity be sparked in this season for them to learn all that Jesus says about Himself. Specifically, that He is “the way, the truth, and the life” (John 14:6) so that they may acknowledge Him as Lord and Savior.

Islam teaches that deception under certain circumstances is acceptable and the effects of this teaching breeds mistrust—of God and of others. But the Bible tells us "Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old self with its practices and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator" (Colossians 3:9-10). Pray for people in Niger to be people who pursue truth and feel conviction about deceiving others.

Zakat, one of the five pillars of Islam, requires Muslims to donate a set percentage of their wealth each year to Muslim charities. The New Testament teaches Christians to give generously from the heart as opposed to a set percentage. Pray for the people of Niger to be challenged by the contrast between a religious rule and a heart posture and to want to understand more about the "new heart" that the Bible teaches about (Ezekiel 36:26).

Muslims and Christians use the same Arabic word for "fasting". And similar to what we learned yesterday about prayer, the meanings are fundamentally different. Muslim fasting is rigidly defined as no food, water, sex, or smoking from dawn to dusk. Christian fasting takes on many more forms. Muslim fasting is enforced (or broadly promoted) in Muslim countries during Ramadan. Jesus taught, "But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, that your fasting may not be seen by others but by your Father who is in secret...." (Matthew 6:16-18). Today we pray for Muslims in Niger to come across Jesus' teaching about fasting in the Sermon on the Mount and be challenged to continue to investigate His teachings.

Muslims and Christians often use the same Arabic word for "prayer". The meanings of that word, however, could not be more different. Islamic salat "prayer" describes the memorized recitations that Muslims must speak and the motions they must go through five times a day. Christian "prayer" describes two-directional conversation with God where Christians humbly approach the throne of grace with confidence to present requests and praise, they listen to God, and are thus transformed. Today we ask for Muslims in Niger to have the opportunity to be prayed for by a Christian and for them to have a divine encounter with God through it.

Muslims believe that the Quran is the perfect and final revelation of God. Christians believe that Jesus is. "He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature..." (Hebrews 1:1-4). Pray for Muslims in Niger to read the Gospels and see the contrast between the exact representation of God's nature we see in Christ and what the Quran teaches.

Islam pursues political, societal, and top-down power structures. Christianity teaches bottom-up servant leadership (Luke 22:25-27). Pray for Niger to be transformed as Christians model Christian leadership principles and reject worldly power structures.

There is a hadith (teaching) in Islam that says, "Be good to your mother, Paradise is under her feet." This positive teaching is often negatively used to prevent Muslims from questioning or rejecting the religion of their parents. Today, we pray for Muslims in Niger to have courage from God to honor their parents, but not blindly follow their religion and to instead pursue Truth.

Many Muslims when faced with difficult questions about their religion fall back on the claim that God is unknowable. In Christianity, though we cannot fathom the fullness of who God is, we do believe that God revealed Himself to us in Christ and wants to be known by us. Today we pray for Muslims in Niger to encounter God by knowing Christ.

Islam teaches that women cannot fast or pray when they are menstruating. We thank God that this is not a reality for us in Christ. Pray for women in Niger today who cannot fast because they are menstruating and will have to make up this day of fasting later in the year by themselves. Pray for their hearts to be softened to a God who welcomes them into His presence any day of the year because of Christ's blood on the cross.

Islam teaches that Muslims are born into Islam, inheriting the religion of their parents. Christianity teaches the opposite, each person must make a personal decision to follow Christ and His teachings. Today we pray into this issue and ask for God to give grace to Muslims in Niger to question this teaching that they inherited their religion from their parents.
