[2026 Ramadan] Day 3: Lead Them to Springs of Living Water and Wipe Away Every Tear

This is the final age. Amidst news of struggles, wars, and disasters occurring throughout the world, God is swiftly accomplishing His work through the constant worship and prayers of the church chosen by His grace.

In January 2026, anti-government protests sparked by Iran's severe economic crisis have continued for about four weeks, resulting in unprecedented casualties due to large-scale bloody crackdowns. Under the brutal high-handed response of the Iranian government and the Islamic system, Iranian souls who cried out simply longing for freedom are weeping bitterly, bound by the yoke of suffering as their wounds grow deeper.

Furthermore, Iranian authorities are currently strengthening street patrols and launching a massive arrest operation to prevent further protests, posing a threat to the citizens. In addition to demanding exorbitant fees from bereaved families in exchange for returning the bodies of those killed during the protests, the government is taking harsh measures such as arresting participants and their families and holding them in unofficial detention facilities. A spirit of grief from losing family and a broken heart with nowhere to lean is heavily covering the souls of Iran.

They shall neither hunger anymore nor thirst anymore; the sun shall not strike them, nor any heat; for the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne will shepherd them and lead them to living fountains of waters. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes. (Revelation 7:16-17)

However, the Lamb on the throne hears the pain and groans of the nations and is becoming the shepherd for the 2.1 billion Muslims who have lost their way and are wandering, leading them to the fountain of eternal living water where they will never hunger or thirst again.

The world turns away from God the Creator, blinding the eyes of the nations with false whispers and temptations, holding onto human knowledge and ideologies, and failing to follow the Lord's commandment to love one another. Nevertheless, God has never abandoned His children and has healed all mourning hearts through Jesus Christ, the true King of Peace.

And God is still restoring and saving the nations in His good ways. Despite persecution and hardship directed at Christians under the terrible Islamic dictatorship, Iranian underground believers have not stopped putting Bibles in mailboxes or evangelizing to those they meet. Even amidst protests, crackdowns, and imprisonment, they are boldly preaching the gospel without fear.

Hallelujah! We declare that the Way, the Truth, and the Life that will eternally set free all nations who were captives of the world and longed so much for freedom is in Jesus Christ alone!

Lead them to springs of living water and wipe away every tear.

Through this winter's short-term teams, God has brought many who thirst for the truth of the nations back to the Lord and has shown great works unlike any before. News from Indonesia of a paralyzed Muslim sister receiving Jesus; news of the Hazara people receiving the gospel with tears as they experienced the healing of the Holy Spirit while praying fervently for their ailments. News from Jordan of someone who met a short-term team by chance after dreaming of Jesus, realizing it was Him and receiving Him. News from Pakistan that the young Muslim generation is rebelling against the Islamic religion due to hearts emptied by secularization, depression, and ongoing terrorism by Islamic groups.

Specially, amazing news is coming from Israel that Jewish people, whose hearts were as dry as the wilderness and whose eyes were blinded, are opening their hearts, showing interest in the gospel, and becoming curious about Jesus Christ the Savior. As they shouted for peace and praised in Jerusalem, a Jewish soldier brother received Jesus with tears. Our faithful God is showing mercy to the souls of the nations and granting the hope of the Lord's kingdom to those sitting in the shadow of death!

In this situation, the month-long Ramadan period returns from February 18 to March 19 this year, during which the 2.1 billion Muslim community worldwide observes fasting, reflects on their Islamic identity, and bows before false idols.

However, during this Ramadan, as the global church unites and prays, our Savior Jesus Christ will lead them to the springs of living water from the thick darkness of death, pain, and conflict binding the nations, and He will wipe away all their tears!

Let us move forward to the throne of grace with one heart every day for all nations and for the Muslims who are still suffering because they do not know the truth. Through the spiritual alliance of the global church that will break down the strongholds of Islam, the spiritual atmosphere of the nations will be shaken, and 2.1 billion Muslims will be born again with the joy of salvation, rising as a holy multitude that follows the Lamb, the hope of truth, with joy!

Lead them to the springs of living water and wipe away every tear of the 2.1 billion suffering Muslims!
