The Nations Are Yours: Belarus

Writer: GayleGayle

Belarus is a small country located in Europe.  It has a history of constantly being fought over and divided by other countries.  Russia and Poland have been the most aggressive and oppressive countries claiming Belarus at different times throughout history. 


God, we pray for the country of Belarus, asking You to restore all that the devil has stolen from them.  You created the Belarusians with their own national heritage and country boundaries.  Acts 17:26 says, “He made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined allotted periods and the boundaries of their dwelling place.”


 We ask, Lord, that the Belarusians can forgive the countries of Russia and Poland for oppressing the minority populations within the country, closing their schools, coming against the Orthodox Church, forbidding them to speak their native language, and forcing them to take on the customs of the controlling country at different times from 1795-1991.

 

Heal the relatives and friends of the Jewish population that were forcibly removed, enslaved, or exterminated under the Nazi regime, killing 90% of the Jewish population that were living in Belarus at the time.  Let there be forgiveness, restoration, and closure to the families that lost loved ones, as only 1% of a Jewish population lives in Belarus today.

 

We stand in the gap for Belarus and break the bondages of abuse, oppression, and control that has been allowed to continue against modern day Belarusians, as they now turn on their own countrymen by preventing them from being allowed to change jobs or secure other living conditions without first getting government permission, by oppressing political freedom, by allowing capital punishment, as well as torture and rape against women and children, and by the persecution of non-government organizations.  Free Belarus from the clutches of wickedness and bring life, freedom, and righteousness into the country.

 

We pray for their economy, as currently they are under sanctions from foreign countries due to their involvement with Russia in the invasion of Ukraine. 

 

We pray for those who will share the gospel of Jesus Christ.  Isaiah 52:7 says, “How beautiful on the mountain are the feet of those who bring good news, proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation, who say to Zion, “Your God reigns!”   Amen.
