Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani

Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani is currently in custody in the muslim nation of Iran. Pastor Youcef nadarkhani Is on trial for apostasy (the rejection of the muslim religon). Late 2009 the Iran government decided to make it a requirement to teach muslim religon in all schools. Pastor Nadarkhani protested and was arrested then released.. Later he was arrested for spreading the Gospel to muslims., he was placed on trial. He is now sentenced to execution unless he renounces his Christian Faith. Which he refuses to do.. This man has great Faith and courage. He is an inspiration, He has a family and he is still doing the right thing and obeying God's will. So please keep him in your prayers. Pray that God will make.a way for him and that he will give him strength and wisdom This is incredible to me, .This man is standing up for his faith and literally risking his life. I really commend him for that. If he can risk his life can't we risk an ounce of popularity? We should stand up for our faith. Yes, It is difficult to be ridiculed but God has us coverd. Just remember to keep your head high and remember that You are a child of God (which makes you royalty..., just sayin) . And remeber that No weapon formed against you shall prosper!

Psalm 56:3-4

When I am afraid, I will trust in you. In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I will not be afraid. What can mortal man do to me? (NIV)

Matthew 10:26

Therefore do not fear them. For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, and hidden that will not be known.

1 Corinthians 16:13

Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be men of courage; be strong.
