Lord, today our thoughts and prayers turn toward the
Maldives, but not as an island paradise. Today we pray about the fact that “protection
of religion” in the Maldives actually means protection of Islam. We pray the
Maldivian government will recognize the irony of this and become convinced of
the value of true freedom of religion in their nation. We pray for Maldivians
to be granted the right to become Christians and to be known as such. We pray
for expatriate Christians in the Maldives, that you would give them resilience
and hope as they function under close government watch. May your Holy Spirit
clearly prompt them when it is time to share their faith and when it is time to
remain silent. We pray for converted Christians in the Maldives. Give them
special courage and protection as they live out their faith under intense
persecution and isolation. May the Maldives become known as a place of both
spiritual and political freedom. In Jesus’ name we pray, amen.
