But take heart! I have overcome the world.” — John 16:33.       Recorded live here in London, England, with Reverend Ben CooperThe persecuted church rises in courage today as John 16:33 echoes across the nations. Jesus prepares His people for pressure but promises His peace in the middle of it. Across China, Iran, Somalia, and North Korea, believers whisper worship behind closed doors. The underground church survives on faith, endurance, and the power of the Holy Spirit. Though regimes tighten, Jesus strengthens His people with unbreakable hope.  Today we stand with them, lifting their voices and their battles before the Lord.  “Persecuted church,” “underground church,” and “Christian suffering” remain among the most searched global prayer topics. Millions seek prayer for believers living under threat, surveillance, imprisonment, and anti-conversion laws. John 16:33 brings perspective: tribulation is real, These believers teach the world what true discipleship looks like. They gather in secret, sing in whispers, hide Bibles under floorboards, and risk their freedom for the gospel. Their courage grows from Christ's peace, not from human strength. When their faith is tested, the Holy Spirit becomes their comfort, boldness, and endurance. Lord, we lift China, Iran, Somalia, and North Korea before You. Strengthen every believer under pressure. Protect pastors, house churches, and families living in silence for Your name. Bring courage to prisoners of faith. Let revival spread through closed nations. May Your peace overwhelm fear, and may Your victory shine in the darkest places.Prayer Points Pray for protection over underground churches. Ask God to free prisoners of faith. Pray for courage for believers facing surveillance. Intercede for pastors leading in dangerous conditions. Declare peace over families forced to worship in secret. Pray for strength under anti-conversion laws. Ask for safe distribution of Bibles and resources. Lift up children growing up in persecuted regions. Pray for revival in closed nations. Thank God that Jesus has overcome the world.Declaration Jesus has overcome the world, and His peace sustains His suffering church. Share this prayer and stand with the persSupport the showFor more inspiring content, visit RBChristianRadio.net — your home for daily devotionals, global prayer, and biblical encouragement for every season of life.

Allie and Judd Saul, the founder of Equipping the Persecuted, expose how the mainstream media is downplaying Nigeria's Christian genocide. Thousands slaughtered, villages erased, churches burned by radical Fulani jihadists, while the government turns a blind eye. However, the tide may be turning, as Donald Trump has vowed to take action to protect Christians, while Nicki Minaj brought attention to the genocide at the United Nations. Hope rises amid horror. Join us to pray, awaken the church, and stand with our persecuted family before it's too late.

Send us your feedback — we're listeningPsalm 23:4 — Christ With the Persecuted: Courage in the Dark Valley “Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.” — Psalm 23:4 Recorded live here in London, England with Reverend Ben Cooper. The persecuted church walks through valleys the world rarely sees — yet Christ walks with them. Psalm 23:4 is one of the most searched verses globally for those seeking courage under pressure, light in darkness and strength when faith is tested. Across China, North Korea, Eritrea, Iran and Afghanistan, believers cling to this promise with unshakeable hope. prayer anchors Day 2 in PERSEVERANCE, standing with our brothers and sisters who refuse to let fear silence their faith. For many Christians, faith comes at a cost — secrecy, isolation, imprisonment and constant danger. Yet in every hidden room, prison cell, and whispered gathering, Jesus is present. The rod and staff of Christ protect, comfort and guide. No government, law or threat can remove His presence. The Holy Spirit fills underground believers with a courage that cannot be extinguished. Persecuted believers remind us what courage truly looks like — worship in silence, prayer behind closed doors, Scripture hidden in hearts, and faith held tightly when the world pushes back.Their valley is dark, but Christ's light is brighter. Their path is dangerous, but His presence is stronger. Today, as we pray for them, we also reflect on our own faith: Are we willing to stand? Are we willing to remain faithful? The Spirit strengthens both them and us. We lift China, North Korea, Eritrea, Iran and Afghanistan before You, Lord. Strengthen the secret church, protect prisoners of faith, empower underground leaders and comfort those who worship quietly in fear of persecution.Bring revival in hidden places. Let courage spread, protection increase and Your presence be their constant companion. Pray for protection over secret gatherings. Ask God to strengthen believers facing imprisonment. Pray for Bibles and resources to reach underground churches.Ask the Holy Spirit to comfort families separated by persecution.Pray for courage for new believers under threat.Ask for supernatural protection over pastors and leaders.Pray for prisoners of faith to experience Christ's presence.Ask God to soften the hearts of persecutors.Pray for revival to grow in hostile natiSupport the showFor more inspiring content, visit RBChristianRadio.net — your home for daily devotionals, global prayer, and biblical encouragement for every season of life.

Send us your feedback — we're listeningRomans 8:28 — God Works in All Things: Perseverance for the Persecuted Church“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” — Romans 8:28Recorded live here in London, England with Reverend Ben Cooper. Across the world right now, countless believers worship Jesus in silence, secrecy and danger. Romans 8:28 remains one of the most searched verses because persecuted believers cling to this truth when everything around them shakes.From China to North Korea, from Eritrea to Somalia, from Afghanistan to India, the church under pressure stands with unbroken faith.This is our Faith Under Fire prayer — part of the Ultra Ecosystem Arc — where courage becomes perseverance. When the world opposes them, Christ strengthens them. When darkness rises, God is still working for good.Romans 8:28 was written to a church facing suffering, uncertainty and hostility — a mirror of what many believers face today. Yet Paul declares that God remains sovereign in every trial. Persecuted believers do not have freedom, safety or visibility — but they have Jesus. And Jesus is enough. The Holy Spirit strengthens them in prison cells, in house-church gatherings, in whispered midnight prayers. What the enemy meant for destruction, Faith under fire reveals the purity of devotion. Persecuted believers do not follow Jesus for comfort — they follow Him because He is truth, life and the only hope that cannot be taken away God is working in all things, even when the battle feels relentless. We pray for China, North Korea, Somalia and India — nations where believers face oppression, imprisonment, intimidation and loss.Lord, surround the underground church with Your protection. Strengthen pastors, house-church leaders and disciples meeting in secrecy.Open prison doors, soften the hearts of officials and guard every family standing for Christ.  Ask God to protect underground churches meeting in secret.Pray for prisoners of faith to be comforted and sustained.Ask the Holy Spirit to bring courage to families under pressure.Pray for Bibles to reach restricted nations.Ask God to break the chains of persecution and injustice.Pray for revival to rise from hidden places.Ask God to strengthen leaders facing threats.Pray for protection for new believers in hostile environments.Thank God thaSupport the showFor more inspiring content, visit RBChristianRadio.net — your home for daily devotionals, global prayer, and biblical encouragement for every season of life.

Why is our reward in heaven great if we are persecuted and reviled? What is the meaning of Matthew 5:12?

What happens when a man who fled one of the world's most oppressive regimes for religious freedom discovers that the country that saved him is now sending others like him back into danger? In this eye-opening episode, host Justin Yentes speaks with Pastor Ara Torosian, an Iranian-Armenian Christian who escaped persecution under Iran's Islamic regime, found refuge in the United States, and now fights for fellow believers whose asylum protections have been suddenly and unjustly revoked. Together, they unravel a story where faith, integrity, and U.S. policy collide, with lives hanging in the balance. Key Moments: Pastor Ara's Origin Story: Growing up Armenian Christian in Iran, finding faith under oppression, and risking everything to lead an underground church. Arrest and Torture: Ara's arrest for possessing Bibles, his refusal to betray fellow Christians, and the enduring trauma of his torture. Seeking Freedom: The journey to the United States through a refugee program and building a new faith community in Los Angeles. Faith and Comfort in America: The cultural shock of Western Christianity and the danger of taking freedom for granted. The Deportations Begin: How Iranian Christians were recently sent back to Iran under the current administration, despite legal asylum claims. Advocacy and Hunger Strike: Ara's peaceful protest at the White House and his call for reform in America's broken asylum system. The Call to Conscience: What faith, justice, and integrity require of those who claim to stand for religious freedom. This episode challenges what you think you know about religious freedom, immigration, and American integrity. It's for listeners who care about human rights, faith under pressure, and the moral cost of political decisions. Learn how one man's courage can still make a difference and how you can, too.

As we look at the last statement Jesus made in the Beatitudes, we will notice that He is preparing His disciples for what they are about to face as they have made the choice to follow Him. This same mistreatment will happen to us as well, as it is not some strange thing happening when people insult, and say all kinds of evil things against us as we put our faith in Jesus.

The author of Hebrews tells us to remember those who are imprisoned for Jesus as though we are imprisoned with them. We are to remember those who are suffering for the sake of Jesus as though we are suffering with them. Today I want to give us three reasons why we remember the persecuted.

   US Pressure on Xi Jinping May Lead to Release of Jimmy Lai. Mark Simon is encouraged that President Trump plans to raise the fate of persecuted publisher Jimmy Lai with Xi Jinping. Simon believes China must resolve the "Jimmy Lai problem" but will likely demand concessions, such as sanctions relief. Lai's release, potentially via a humanitarian or commuted sentence route, would pave the way for the release of hundreds of other Hong Kong dissidents.

Continuing to look at the Beatitudes, we examine those who are persecuted from Matthew 5:10 https://longhollow.com/theforgottenjesuspodcastshownotes

“I just want the Bible. How much does it cost?” First, the young Druze woman tried to access and read her own religion's holy book. But she wasn't allowed to read it. Then she tried to find a Quran. Finally, she came to a church and asked to purchase a Bible, worried she wouldn't have enough money to pay for it. The pastor told her that God's Word is priceless, but that he would give it to her without cost. Shocked, she took the Bible and began to read, eventually giving her life to Jesus. Brother Michael, a gospel worker in the Middle East, will share more of this young woman's powerful story and the Christian persecution she faced from her family while standing firm in Christ. In spite of persecution, even locked in a room, she continued to share the gospel. Learn what it's like to live as a Christian in the Middle East, and what believers face after leaving Muslim or Druze backgrounds to follow Christ. As believers engage in conversations with family and friends, they carefully plant spiritual seeds while testing their listeners' hearts to see if they are ready to go deeper. Brother Michael also shares how he trains and leads discipleship through Discovery Bible Study groups, which are multiplying as new believers share their personal testimonies with family and friends. One group started with nine believers, but today has multiplied into more than twenty groups with 150 believers! Hear how you can pray specifically for Brother Michael and our persecuted Christian family in the Middle East. The International Day of Prayer for Persecuted Christians (IDOP) is next Sunday! The Voice of the Martyrs offers resources to help you and your church pray for persecuted Christians on November 2–and throughout the year. Be sure to watch the new short film telling the story of ongoing Christian persecution in Democratic Republic of Congo—and how God is bringing healing to Christians who've suffered attacks and trauma. Access all the IDOP resources here.

More and more people are talking about Christian persecution in Nigeria, but reports are often conflicting. Some Nigerians--even Nigerian Christians--claim the reports are entirely false. Others claim it's only an ethnic dispute, not a religious one. Some say U.S. leaders are blowing the story out of proportion in order to work our way in and take mineral rights. Still others say it's just a sad story of "bandits" taking advantage of people for financial gain...not anything resembling a Christian-targeted genocide. What's actually going on?In this episode, I sort all of this out with Judd Saul, Executive Director of Equipping the Persecuted. Judd has been on the ground in Nigeria over a period of 10 years and shares his firsthand knowledge of what the reality is. Mentioned in the Show:This episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/xcmibUjT2s8Equipping the Persecuted site: www.equippingthepersecuted.orgTruth Nigeria: www.truthnigeria.comFollow Judd Saul on X: www.x.com/juddsaulFollow Equipping the Persecuted on Facebook: www.facebook.com/EquippingThePersecuted

This past summer, Mark Reiswig, Northwest Christian's 8th grade Bible teacher, travelled with Voice of the Martyrs to Nigeria.  Over the last few years, the encroaching influence of Islam in northern Nigeria has produced a hotbed of persecution -- and, tragically, martyrdom -- for the minority Christian population.  In travelling to Nigeria, Mark knew this would be an intense and insightful trip...but he was not prepared for the things that God showed him..."Kingdom Culture Conversations" is a podcast created through Frameworks, a Biblical worldview initiative of Northwest Christian School.For more information on Frameworks, please visit: https://frameworks.ncsaz.org/For more information on Northwest Christian School, visit: https://www.ncsaz.org/To reach out to Geoff Brown, please email gbrown@ncsaz.org or you can reach him by cell phone: (623)225-5573."Kingdom Culture Conversations" is a podcast created through Frameworks, a Biblical worldview initiative of Northwest Christian School.For more information on Frameworks, please visit: https://frameworks.ncsaz.org/For more information on Northwest Christian School, visit: https://www.ncsaz.org/To reach out to Geoff Brown, please email gbrown@ncsaz.org or you can reach him by cell phone: (623)225-5573.

Hundreds of thousands of people have been displaced from their homes and their countries amidst war and upheaval in the Middle East. Pastor Abraham and Sara are living as representatives of God's love to displaced people in the Middle East. The ministry can be messy and difficult, yet they persist in demonstrating love in practical ways. And they are seeing great fruit for their ministry. Abraham and Sara will share how one woman—the widow of an imam—had heard all kinds of negative things about Christians. But when she came to the church, she found something very different: people who loved her and helped her. Listen to hear the story of how God answered the woman's prayer within 24 hours, and how a dream led her to commit her life to Jesus. Leaving Islam behind to follow Jesus comes with a cost, though. Abraham and Sara will also share what Christian persecution looks like in the region, including pressure from families or tribes as well as Islamists or government authorities. “We are planting seeds,” Sara says, “we are the tools for His Kingdom.” Pray for Abraham & Sara's ministry as they serve lost and forgotten people in the Middle East and seek to reveal Christ's love for them. The International Day of Prayer for Persecuted Christians (IDOP) is only a few weeks away. The Voice of the Martyrs offers resources to help you and your church pray for persecuted Christians on November 2—and throughout the year.

Today I am talking to a special guest, Annabelle Vaughn, who watched her father get dragged from the front door of their rural Tennessee home four years ago, for the “crime” of conspiracy to protect the unborn. Paul Vaugn, who was interviewed a couple of times on Crosspolitic, was one of the Nashville 11 who was later arrested for helping the others who committed the “crime” of peacefully blocking the entrance to a (now closed) abortion clinic while praying & singing hymns. (BTW, I interviewed four of the Nashville 11 in July of 2024 just BEFORE their sentencing in Nashville, and you can find those episodes in the podcast archives.) As you listen, think of how you might better pray both for the persecuted, as well as the families who are often forgotten, yet also suffer in many ways. . .

Last but not least, to learn more about our ministry endeavors or get one of my missionary biographies, visit PrayGiveGo.us! Why the Prison Pulpit? The goal is to remind everyone to pray for persecuted believers as Hebrews 13:3 teaches us to do (“Remember those in prison, as bound with them, and those who are mistreated, since you also are in the body.”). I’ve done this by sharing imprisoned Pastor Wang Yi’s writings in China, but since we have none of his writings from WITHIN prison walls, I’ve turned to other persecuted ministers who have gone before, such as Richard Wurmbrand, to give us a voice, or reminders, or sermons, from prison.

In Malaysia, every citizen carries an ID card that includes religion; every person is classified as either “Muslim” or “Non-Muslim.” The Malaysian constitution promises religious freedom and the right to choose one's religion. So what happens if a citizen changes their faith? “Brother Samuel” will answer that question this week on VOM Radio. Born into a Muslim family, he came to know that Jesus was the Son of God, then chose to leave Islam behind to follow Christ. At first, he kept his newfound faith quiet, knowing that being publicly identified as a follower of Jesus could bring all kinds of trouble. But as he grew in faith, he felt convicted about his silence. Jesus had died for him. How could he be unwilling even to acknowledge Christ? Learning of his conversion, Samuel's family encouraged him to dive more deeply into Islamic training and activities. Wanting to honor his father and his family, Samuel agreed to attend Islamic classes. But instead of bringing him back to Mohammed, the training forced him to become more rooted in Biblical truth and more capable at explaining and defending Christian doctrines. In 2018, Samuel began the process of applying for a new national ID card, changing his religion from “Muslim” to “non-Muslim.” Seven years later, his court case is still dragging on. While the most famous case of Christian persecution in Malaysia is the abduction of Pastor Raymond Koh, Samuel says there are hundreds of Christians right now in the same situation he's in: trying to get the government to issue them new ID cards that accurately reflect their faith. Please pray this week for Samuel and for other Christians in Malaysia. Next month is the International Day of Prayer for Persecuted Christians (IDOP). The Voice of the Martyrs has resources to help you and your church pray for persecuted Christians on November 2 and throughout the year, including a new film telling the story of ongoing persecution in Democratic Republic of Congo.
