Friends, we've been praying for Adam (we've called him Abbas in the past) a Christian convert who has lived in Saudi Arabia his entire life. The last update we prayed over was when his wife Hope was called to her parents' home under false pretenses and is now being held there against her will.
Adam has been in prison several times and received beatings for his faith. His perceived crime? Importing Bibles. Rasheed, one of Adam's closest friends explains. "he is open about his faith. He wants other people to know Jesus too. He is very active about sharing his faith openly. Sometimes he leaves Bibles behind in the Great Mosque. He goes to the mosque to pray to Jesus. In a restaurant he shared about Jesus to a group of friends - sadly enough, one of them betrayed him. " For that reason, he's been told to return to court on May 30 to face the accusation of proselytism.
Adam also helped his sister-in-law Eve, leave Saudi Arabia after her family discovered she had become a Christian and tried to kill her. Since hen, times Eve's husband has threatened Adam many times. "Adam is a strong believer," Rasheed says. "He put himself in danger for the sake of others when he helped Eve to flee. "
Adam is afraid of what will happen to Hope and their youngest son if he ends up in prison again. "Last week, he joined us during our meeting as a church," Rasheed shares. "We started praying for him. We laid hands on him, prayed, wept. It was a long time of prayer. I believe it went on for 3 and a half hours. Adam cried. At a certain moment, he asked me if I would help his children go to university. I said we as a church would, with support of many of our brothers and sisters around the world. He fell on the ground and cried and cried. We comforted him and then he started praising and worshiping God."
Pray God softens the heart of the judge on May 30 and Adam is found not guilty.
Pray Hope is released and is able to return to her husband and son.
Pray for provision and peace for Adam and the other believers in the secret churches of Saudi Arabia.
Thanks so much for your faithful prayers for our persecuted brethren in the Body of Christ. May Adonai reward you for your efforts.
