Bibles for Iran amidst massive turning to Christ

The war in Iran started today.   What many people don’t know is that there is a massive turning to Christ by Iranians living in Iran.  It is unprecedented in human history, to see what is said to be one million, some say several millions of Iranians turning to faith in Christ both inside and outside of Iran.  It seems to be an answer to prayer, and it is growing rapidly.  We have heard directly from Iranians who have come to Christ, that many are coming to Christ in Iran and there is a great need for them to be helped in their faith, to be discipled in their faith in Christ.  We  have also been told that one of the great needs in Iran is for Bibles, so that people can grow in their faith.  Thankfully, there are people who are helping to make this happen.  Not only are Bibles available online in the primary language of Iran (Farsi, or Persian as it is called by some), but also traditional paper Bibles are also in high demand.  Of course there is persecution against some of those turning to Christ, so these new believers need our prayers to stay true to the Lord in the face of persecution.  And we also need to pray for those who are boldly testifying of their faith in Christ, and for those who have been imprisoned for their faith.  We also need to pray for the families of those who have been killed for their faith in Christ.  Let us be praying for the Word of God to spread rapidly in Iran,  and that the church of Jesus will be established there through miracles, signs and wonders, and through the authentic love that God establishes in the hearts of his people.  And let us pray for this critical time of transition, that a government will be established that will allow people to freely worship and follow Jesus.  Let us pray for a rapid end to this war, and that a government will be established that allows freedom of conscience, freedom of religion, and that the new believers will continue to grow in numbers and in the depth of their faith in Him.
