This is an urgent call to join an important prayer initiative starting Thursday, March 10. It was initiated by our friend Johannes Hartl from Augsburg House of Prayer and is endorsed by ourselves and many other leaders and ministries across Europe – and that list is growing!
EUROPE PRAYS TOGETHER
…for Ukraine
…for Russia
…for peace
As Christian leaders from all denominations in all European nations we pray for peace. We declare that war can never be a solution. While we stand in solidarity with the suffering people of Ukraine we also pray for our brothers and sisters in Russia.
Europe has a wonderful history of reconciliation, that is now threatened by an ideology of dominionism, revenge and fear. We also see in western nations growing hatred towards Russian speaking people and the wish for a military solution.
As Christians we believe: this is a time for prayer.
For bold, audacious, persistent and faith-filled prayer in unity.
We pray for peace in Ukraine and safety for this wonderful nation.
We pray for the love of Jesus to flood Russia.
We pray for the Russian people to seek God and truth like never before.
We pray for a new spirit of forgiveness and understanding all throughout Europe.
We pray for a new era of cooperation and unity between east and west.
We humble ourselves and ask for forgiveness for where we have acted or thought arrogantly or naive ourselves.
We call Christians all across Europe to take their place in a wave of passionate prayer for the people in Ukraine and in Russia within the next 7 days.
Prayer and fasting can prevent wars – when filled with faith and trust in Jesus.
He is the Prince of peace.
He has plans of salvation for every nation.
He has defeated the real enemy – so we no longer are enemies.
Together we stand against the darkness that tries to drive our nations into a new era of war. United we say NO!
