God Answering Prayer in Ukraine

 

God Is Answering Prayer in Ukraine
The following is a tremendous report released recently by Intercessors for America. We will print an excerpt here, with key points highlighted.


PRAISE THE LORD!

Eyewitnesses in Ukraine report God is moving in miraculous ways. Stories are flooding into IFA from our contacts in Ukraine. Let them encourage your faith and direct your prayers. 

I spoke with a missionary, we are calling Yelena. She has asked for her identity to be protected as she works in Ukraine and Eastern Europe right now. Yelena was born in the Soviet Union in the area which would eventually become Ukraine. She moved to America at the age of 11 and later received the Lord Jesus as Savior. 

Two weeks ago when Russia invaded Ukraine she saw the opportunity to return to Ukraine to offer humanitarian aid. She and a team of 4 others went to Lviv and began establishing connections with the local Ukrainian church. “The goal was not only to provide aid and necessities, but to provide people with Jesus Christ,” Yelena said.

Topics Covered Include:

- God granted organizational favor.
- God is blessing the Christians at work in Ukraine with unity.
- God is enabling the Church to demonstrate His power in signs and wonders.
- God used the ministry team to rescue women from traffickers.

Yelena shared these prayer requests and we ask you to join us in praying:

  • Pray for their healing and recovery of team members so that the mission will continue. They are not used to the freezing temperatures. (Ps. 41:1-3)
  • Pray for direction and wisdom as they expand into Moldova, Romania, and different places accepting refugees. (Ps. 32:8)
  • Pray for the local churches in Ukraine to be firmly established. When the teams leave, for the churches to continue to serve the people and share Jesus. (1 Cor. 15:58)
  • Pray for the people who have been traumatized by the bombings, sirens, and losing everything. Pray for freedom from panic, anxiety, and fear. (Ps. 94:19)
  • Pray for the men who have been left behind and families who have been separated. (Eph. 3:14,15)
  • Pray for resources to reach the hot spots such as Kyiv, Kharkiv, Vinnytsia, Irpin, Bucha, Cherkasy, and Dniprio. These spots are not easy to get into. (Is. 43:19)
  • Cover the ministry teams in prayer and ask for God’s protection. (Ps. 91)
  • Pray that God would continue to highlight the vulnerable women and children and uncover more trafficking attempts. (Ps. 82:3,4)

Hearing this team and what they’ve accomplished in spite of what they have seen moved my heart to pray more. This is the kingdom of God! This is the great commission! Prayer increasing, unity in the body of Christ, thousands being saved in the midst of turmoil. That sure sounds like revival to me. I would love to hear more of these stories happening here in America!  (Read more here)
