The presidential election's run off day is on 14th June. The Taliban have already pronounced that they will target everything and anything that has to do with the election. Unknown to the West there were 456 individual security incidents on the last election day April 5th. In spite of those facts the number of casualties were only minor and we trace this back to an increased prayer support. Thank you for having a part in it.
Just in the last day or so there was a suicide bomb attack on the frontrunner in the election, Dr. Abdullah Abdullah. Please pray for his protection and for his opponent Dr. Ashraf Ghani.
Again we need prayer covering for the 14th June, which will decide who of these two candidates will be the next president. Let us pray again most of all for peace and protection during this day and for a fair process of decision-making until the new president is sworn in at the first week of August. Pray that the defeated candidate will recognize the election and support the winner and pray for the new president to be able to keep the country united.
We just received this quote and are sure you will all agree:
The devil laughs when we toil, mocks at our wisdom, but trembles when we pray. (From friends who are concerned about Afghanistan)
