XINING

CHINA

Go Back

Xining, capital of the Qinghai province, is an ancient city located on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Xining played an early role in promoting Chinese trade after the opening of the Silk Road during the Western Han Dynasty (202 BC – 8 AD). Today, it remains a bridge as the starting point for the Qinghai-Tibet railway.

China, having more than 4,000 years of recorded history, and occupying nearly the entire East Asian landmass, is the largest of all Asian countries and the most populous nation on earth. Often mistaken as ethnically homogenous, China is one of the most diverse and complex countries, hosting an array of indigenous peoples.

Despite experiencing one of the greatest Jesus movements in history, with over 100 million Chinese coming to faith since the advent of communism in 1949, Chinese believers, as well as Uyghur Muslims, are facing intense persecution in this hour. With Xi Jinping’s vision of “One Belt, One Road”, and reach for global dominance, an opportunity presents itself for the nation of red and its leaders to fully surrender to King Jesus and wash the earth in the blood of the Lamb.

Prayer Emphasis

Pray for the advancement of God's Kingdom throughout the 6+ languages of this city, especially among the Uyghur and Hui unreached people groups.
Pray for leaders as they identify and train the next generation of church leaders and pass on to them the mantle of church planting. Pray for them to have supernatural wisdom, courage, faith, and protection as they risk their lives for the sake of the Gospel.
Pray for a mighty movement of prayer to be birthed in Xining that multiplies throughout the country.
Pray for followers of Jesus to walk in the power of the Spirit.
Pray for a resurrection of God's divine purpose for this city.
