“The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears are attentive to their cry.” Psalm 34:15
Eternal Father, You are filled with mercy and kindness. Look down today on Zainab and her team as they minister in the city of Ahvaz. You have sovereignly ordained her to lead a movement of women’s house churches, and we rejoice with her in this honor. We ask for her to live with great faith, thanking you, according to Psalm 34:15, that the “eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears are attentive to their cry.” Multiply the women’s groups throughout the city, launching a movement of holy, godly women whose lives are a sweet fragrance to You. As Zainab and her leadership launch a Jesus school for young girls, provide for their every need and protect them from the enemy. In Jesus’ name, Amen. |

As the access to basic necessities and governmental planning worsens, the people of Iran are further disillusioned with the Islamic utopia the government promised. These are just a few of the many factors that are contributing to Iran hosting the fastest-growing church in the world.
Ahvaz is the capital city of the Khuzestan province in southwestern Iran. Due to its dominant oil sector, it is one of the most polluted cities on the planet.
