Field Team Daily Prayer Request:
Let’s pray today for Layla in N’Djamena, Chad, as she leads the home school cooperative network, asking the Lord to prepare the way for a coming harvest.
We wrote a song just for today’s prayer. Listen and pray with us: onemiraclenight.com/songs#FavorOfTheLord
Father, let Your favor rest on Layla, her team, and every family connected to this network. According to Psalm 90, establish the work of their hands. Strengthen what they are building so it becomes stable and lasting.
Grant Layla wisdom in each decision and clarity in each step. Order her schedule, conversations, and partnerships. Bring the right families and leaders at the right time, and open doors no one can close.
Create meaningful connections within this community. Let relationships grow with parents, students, and neighbors who are searching for truth and hope. Give Layla discernment to recognize moments You are preparing and courage to respond with grace.
Prepare hearts among the children and families. Let trust grow, and let this learning environment become a place of peace and spiritual openness. Remove obstacles, and provide needed resources and favor with local authorities.
Establish this network as good soil for a future harvest, steady and ready in Your timing. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Forward this to two others and invite them to come before the Lord with us by signing up at onemiraclenight.com.
I live in Shiraz — a city of gardens, poetry, and ancient memory. For centuries, travelers have come here to walk among the roses of Eram Garden and read the words of Hafez and Saadi, poets who wrote of love, longing, and truth. Shiraz has always carried a softer spirit than many cities in Iran — a place where beauty and art have shaped the soul of its people.
But these days, life feels different. The sound of jets and distant explosions sometimes interrupts the quiet of our streets. During the recent war, airstrikes struck near Shiraz, even damaging areas around the airport and killing civilians in nearby neighborhoods. Many families here now live with uncertainty, wondering what tomorrow will bring as the wider conflict continues across the country.
Beyond the war, there has also been deep unrest inside Iran. Students and ordinary citizens have protested economic hardship and political repression, and the government has responded with heavy crackdowns and internet blackouts. The tension is felt everywhere — in markets, universities, and homes where conversations grow quiet when certain topics arise.
Yet even here, in a city weighed down by fear and uncertainty, there is a quiet search for hope. The people of Shiraz have always loved beauty and meaning. I believe that longing — the same longing that filled the poetry of this city for centuries — is leading many hearts to search for something deeper than politics, war, or tradition.
In hidden ways, God is at work. Conversations about faith happen quietly. Dreams stir questions in the night. And small gatherings of believers pray for this city of poets and gardens to discover the true Author of life and the true Prince of Peace. I believe Shiraz will not only be remembered for its poetry of the past — but for a new story God is writing in the hearts of its people.
Use these resources to help pray specifically each day.
