URGENT PRAYER NEEDED for cancellation of execution for Pasto
This Prayer Chain is calling ALL Christians into action NOW on behalf of this Iranian pastor, who faces execution!
Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani never practiced the Muslim faith and converted to Christianity at age 19, becoming a pastor later. But the courts say that since his mother and father were practicing Muslims, he must recant his Christian faith or die. So far, in three court appearances, he has refused to do so - RISKING EXECUTION AT ANY MOMENT. The Iranian Supreme Court often acts quickly in administering the death penalty.
According to a report, when asked by judges to "repent," Youcef replied: "Repent, What should I return to? To the blasphemy that I had before my faith in Christ?"
The judges replied: "To the religion of your ancestors - Islam." To which Yousef replied: "I cannot."
Please pray for our Brother before Christ so that His servant may be spared.

Praying for your servant "youcef'', Father your people are few in that region, so need more Youcefs out there, please Father deliver him from harm. Angels came and rescued Paul from prison, we pray that the hand of our mighty God will save Youcef. Nothing is impossible for our God. The God of Love, who has sent his only son Jesus to save those that believe.
To shine in one light.

Thanks for bringing this up, Simon. A really important post. Will pray for this man of Christ, so faithful to The Lord under the most incredibly testing of times. May The Lord see to it that satan does not in any way have his way with this man.
