The Arab Spring is pointing out that there are masses of Muslim peoples who are disappointed and disillusioned with life. For these masses it is not surprising that they look to Islam, more religion, as their first default to what their hearts desire. God has placed a desire in us for life, truth, healthy relationships, for Him. Satan comes to kill and destroy. Satan is the father of lies.
Jeremiah 18:1-12 [below] talks about the rise and fall of nations in the hand of God.
Pray that in the Arabian Peninsula more and more people will be disappointed and disillusioned with Islam and an Islamic government.
Pray that Islamic spiritual leaders will express their own disappointment and disillusionment with Islam and that they will do this in humility.
Pray for a movement away from Islam and toward a relationship with Christ.
God is the potter, may God shape the peoples of the AP into beautiful pots that follow Him.
Pray for the peoples of the AP to "repent of its evil." v. 8
This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord: "Go down to the potter's house, and there I will give you my message." So I went down to the potter's house, and I saw him working at the wheel. But the pot he was shaping from the clay was marred in his hands; so the potter formed it into another pot, shaping it as seemed best to him.
