Sana’a, Yemen

Sana’a, the capital of Yemen, has for many centuries been the chief economic, political, and religious center of the country. According to legend, Yemen was founded by Shem, one of the three sons of Noah. Today, Yemen is home to the world’s worst humanitarian crisis, after a brutal civil war started six years ago. Since then, over 4 million people have fled their homes and there have been 233,000 casualties from the war. There are currently over 20 million people in Yemen who rely on some form of humanitarian aid for their survival. The global Church must stand for Yemen in this hour and believe that the country can live into its legend and receive a flood-like baptism of God’s mercy and grace, transforming the nation through the blood of Jesus.

1. Pray for healing and restoration to come to the nation as churches are planted among the Northern Yemeni Arabs, Tihami Arabs, and Sudanese Arabs.
2. Pray for a mighty movement of prayer to sweep over Christians everywhere so that they lift up this war-torn city.
3. Pray that the Lord would have mercy on the city and bring an end to the civil war wracking the nation.
4. Pray for the Kingdom of God to come through mercy, giving gifts to the poor and opening hearts to His Kingdom.
