PRAY FOR UKRAINE
TEN SUGGESTED PRAYERS
1. As with Solomon, ask for God to give the Ukrainian leaders (and all leaders in these difficult times) wisdom from above (1 Kings 3:5-12).
2. As with David, ask God to show Himself as Ukraine faces their Goliath (1 Samuel 17). I am asking that the world will see that “some trust in chariots, others in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God” (Zechariah 4:6).
3. As with Gideon, pray God will confuse the Russian army so that they will turn on each other, become demoralized, flee, and desert (Judges 7).
4. As with Hezekiah, ask that “Sennacherib” will return in defeat to his homeland (2 Kings 19:32-37).
5. As with Moses, pray the “chariots” or tanks and all vehicles will get stuck in the mud, run out of gas, and break down. Furthermore, that God so thwarts the Russian army that their rockets, missiles, and bombs malfunction and cause minimal damage (Exodus 14:21-29).
6. As with Elisha, ask God to blind the enemies surrounding the cities, so they are rendered ineffective (2 Kings 6:11-23).
7. As with Daniel, pray God will remove the leader(s) who mocks the Lord our God. I pray that Putin will fear and see the writing on the wall (Daniel 5).
8. As with Peter, pray Baptist Churches (and other churches and relief organizations) will feed the Ukrainian “sheep” in the name of Jesus. Pray that the refugees who are flooding the neighboring countries seeking food, shelter, transportation, and so forth will see Jesus in us (John 21:15-17).
9. Pray to be shown what each of us can do (individually and collectively) to help alleviate the suffering of our brothers and sisters in Ukraine (Matthew 25:35).
10. Finally, pray Ukrainians, Russians, and the entire world will be amazed at what God is doing, resulting in a worldwide revival and awakening (Acts 2:41).
