Day 3 - Lasting Peace

On Day 3 we pray for a lasting peace and unity over Muslims.Transcript:Day 3: Some Muslims commemorate the peace treaty of the “Battle of the Camel” between Aisha and Ali on this day. The Sunni and Shia divide was held off here with a temporary peace. That peace did not last and to this day tensions between the two sects draw a sharp line down the face of Islam. We know that peace can only be found in the One whose name is Prince of Peace and God with us. Let’s pray for Muslims to find true peace and unity in that Name. Father, we pray today for the Name of Jesus to be high and lifted up over Muslims. We remember that no amount of fasting and religious rigor could ever bring the peace and unity that our hearts long for. We pray for Muslims to seek your face and find peace from their striving, tension, pain, and sins. Jesus, You broke down the wall of hostility with your own Body- bringing true unity to your followers. We pray that you would do the same for Muslims today- uniting them to your Family through your own blood. We pray this in the name of Jesus. Amen. Today, consider meditating on Ephesians 2:14. If you know a Muslim, consider asking them with the intent to listen: What divides people from others and how can there be lasting peace?
