Pray for Asia Bibi
Draconian laws are on the books in places like Pakistan and in the Middle East and in parts of Africa. They are laws that are shariah compliant. In Pakistan, Asia Bibi was falsely accused of "blasphemy," of speaking against the prophet Muhammad, several years ago. She has been in jail ever since. Efforts to gain her release have thus far proven futile, so this wife and mother of five has been sentenced to hang for her Christian faith.
She would be the first woman executed under Pakistan's shariah blasphemy law. This is nothing less than a grievous human rights violation. Believers in Christ must not allow Asia Bibi to die for her faith.
We must pray for her, surround her circumstances in believing faith as we did for another young Christian woman, Meriam Ibrahim, who is now free from a death sentence in Sudan because we cried out to Jesus in her behalf.
Let us allow our prayers to ring out again! Let all God’s people cry out to Him so Asia Bibi can be saved from execution.
