PRAYER FOR THE NATION OF SUDAN

Last Updated on July 31, 2021 by Pastor Ikechukwu Chinedum

Today we shall be engaging in prayer for the nation of Sudan. Ever since the Nation gained her independence from Anglo-Egyptian rule in 1956, the country’s government has been an Islamic oriented military regimes. Sudan is a country predominantly occupied by Muslims. Months after the impeachment of the country’s president, Omar al-Bashir, the country is still unstable as the fight for civilian rule continued still following the take over of a Transitional Military Council (TMC).
For the nation Sudan to know peace and transquility, we as men and women should say a prayer for the Nation of Sudan. When things go wrong in a country, the answers and solutions should not be left to those at the political sphere alone. We (Christians) at the center of spirituality should seek the face of God concerning our nation.

The book of 2 chronicle 7:14, says if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land. Maybe, the unrest upon the Nation of Sudan was brought by sin, don’t you think it is time we raise an altar of prayer for the nation of Sudan?

WHY SHOULD I PRAY FOR SUDAN

With years of active service in ministry, I have discovered that, most people know that they are supposed to pray for their nation, but they don’t pray, because they believe that only one man prayer can not solve the problem of an entire nation.
Allow me to correct this wrong perception. God doesn’t need all the people to pray before he answers, He only the need the sincere intercession of one man. The book of Genesis 18:22-26, 22 So the men turned from there and went toward Sodom, but Abraham still stood before the Lord. 23 Then Abraham drew near and said, “Will you indeed sweep away the righteous with the wicked? 24 Suppose there are fifty righteous within the city. Will you then sweep away the place and not spare it for the fifty righteous who are in it? 25 Far be it from you to do such a thing, to put the righteous to death with the wicked, so that the righteous fare as the wicked! Far be that from you! Shall not the Judge of all the earth do what is just?” 26 And the Lord said, “If I find at Sodom fifty righteous in the city, I will spare the whole place for their sake.”
This passage of the Bible made us understand how one man (Abraham) stood in gap for a whole nation, interceding on behalf of Sodom. Your prayers and my prayers might just be what God need to save the Nation of Sudan.
When you want to pray, make sure you structure your prayers in the following categories:

PRAY FOR THE GOVERNMENT OF SUDAN

Presently the government of Sudan is being led by the head of the Transition Military Council, Lieutenant General General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, he vowed never to release the government to a democratic one until after two years. Meanwhile, the people of Sudan are clamouring for a democratic leadership.

Pray that the present government of Sudan sees the need to heed the people’s cry. Over last few days, death count in Sudan has been on high side after series of protest by the democratic movement group.
If all of these should persist, it wouldn’t take time before the entire sudan populace is wiped out completely. If there was one country that needs Jesus, the Prince of Peace, that country is Sudan.

PRAY FOR THE ECONOMY OF SUDAN

As long as there is unrest in the country, as long as the lifeless body of Sudanese still floods the street after protest, the economy of Sudan will never rise. The economy of a nation will not thrive until the people are in peace.
While praying for economy of Sudan, pray that the peace of God Almighty should dwell in Sudan. The Grace to steer the wheel of the nation’s economy in the right way, God should grant it to them.
PRAY FOR THE CITIZEN

While saying a prayer for the nation of Sudan, do not forget her people. If Sudan will be great tomorrow, it is in the hands of people who dwells in Sudan. The people consist of the government and the governed, pray that the love of God Almighty should dwell in the heart of every man and woman in Sudan.

Not until the love of Christ dwells in the heart of Sudanese will they see themselves as one, and try to help one another. The underserved people in Sudan are going through a whole lot of stress, a prayer for Grace will help them scale through.

PRAY FOR THE CHURCH

Sudan is in a state of desolation, when people turn their mind against God Almighty because of tribulations. Do not forget that a consistent war is waged against the Christians in Sudan. Pray that the light of God Almighty wipe out in entirety the darkness in the mind of people.
A prayer of revival for the church, the fire of revival that will spring forth from the church and will spread across the length and breadth of the country until the entire nation come to the realization that Christ alone is God.

At this perilous time, the church needs strength, the strength forge ahead not minding the circumstances that may arise from opposition. It will be a catastrophe if darkness overcomes the church. The Bible says the light shines and darkness comprehend it not, the light of God should shine so bright in the churches in Sudan. Light that will confound the enemy, God should bring it forth through the fire of revival.
Without much ado, brethren, believers and saints. This is a clarion call to us all, our faith will stand in Sudan, but it all depends on how much prayers we can say for the nation of Sudan.
