Dear friends, let us stand before the Lord for His child, our brother Alexander Kostyuk.

Hope to the People Mission in Rovno, Ukraine is addressing all Christians with a prayer request for the people of Iran. 

According to the reports of one of the missionaries of this mission whose name must keep anonymous because of his safety, without any warning the Iranian government tripled the prices for gas. That is gas price increase of 300%! Some people began to protest, and on the second day of the protests, the internet of the whole country was disabled. It was impossible to reach people even on their phones, and in the best-case scenario, the call was dropped after one minute. This is how about 80 million of the citizens of Iran were taken prisoners and no one knows what is happening within the country. 

Nobody is certain of what is going on. The whole world is asking the question of why we can’t find out what is happening in Iran. It is alarming because according to various sources, over 200 protesters were killed during the last few days. Now the people are not protesting the price of gas but the actions of their government.  

Right now, the situation is critical, and no one is protecting the interests of the people of Iran either from within the country or from outside. In a way, the people are left to look after themselves. Therefore, please pray for the Iranian people and ask God for peace and freedom for them. Iran is currently at war with several countries, and it requires a lot of resources. The people of Iran are very tired.  

Here is what the Iranian brothers and sisters are praying for: 

«О, Lord, please hear the Iranian people. Iran and its citizens are paying a high price for their protests. Dear Jesus Christ, You are a merciful God, please forgive the sin of the Iranian people and give them freedom. Amen! Amen!» 

«Yesterday we were in prayer for Iran. Today we are praying for Iran. Our children will also pray for peace and safety in Iran. We will not stop to pray in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ who is the Lord God Almighty who is also our Lord. 

«Drop down, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness: let the earth open, and let them bring forth salvation, and let righteousness spring up together; I the LORD have created it ». Isaiah 45:8.
