[Field News] The church built on the rock of faith, Jordan

Hello, I am Mariam living in Jordan.

I am a Muslim-Background Christian.


I met Jesus in my dream 10 years ago and had a rough time until I became a Christian.

I was wondering why Jesus appeared in my dream instead of Muhammad and went to a church, but I was rejected because I was a Muslim. This was because it is illegal to share a different religion to a Muslim.


After years of wandering, I was finally baptized through a church that accepted me. However, after receiving Jesus, my relatives tried to kill me because I converted, so now I live alone at home, keeping my faith until the end.


I am afraid there may be personal threats, but I want to break this fear and realize more of the Lord's vision and serve the Church of Jordan together.


Please pray for me that I will overcome all fear and stand up as a witness of Jesus' Gospel in the midst of countless spiritual warfare.


The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? When evildoers assail me to eat up my flesh, my adversaries and foes, it is they who stumble and fall. Though an army encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; though war arise against me, yet I will be confident. (Psalm 27:1-3)

We praise our God who is the light and Savior of sister Mariam. Lord, we thank You that You have met Mariam in her dreams and that you have let her to the way of salvation.

Mariam is in the midst of being abandoned and threatened with her life by her family for receiving Jesus.


Even when an army enlists around sister Mariam, Lord, would You be the refuge for Mariam so that she won’t be afraid but keep her faith until the end as she gets to know more of Your Vision.


May Mariam only trust in the Lord and not bow down to the worldly persecution and challenges and become a child of God who will stand firmly on the rock of faith and plant the church.


Through Mariam, may the Jordan Church overcome all fear and break down the gates of Hades. May this church rise to preach the Gospel to all nations.
