-(7.6.26) Father, we lift up the underground church in Algeria to you. Father, may your angels go before them and behind them, guarding the pathways they travel. We pray for blessed fellowship with other believers, and that you Yeshua would join them in their midst. We pray for your covering over your ministers in Algeria. We pray for religious freedom in Algeria. Father, equip your believers with your armor including the belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, for their feet to be fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace, for their shield of faith, their helmet of salvation, and their sword of the spirit, the word of God. Finally, let these believers pray in the Holy Spirit on all occasions. Empower and strengthen your people God to do your will and scatter your seeds on good soil. Let your Christians evangelize through love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.*  Father, we pray over the government and ask for political stability over the nation, and for the administration to submit to the power and presence of the Holy Spirit. Thank you Jesus.

-We pray for you God to pour out your spirit on all people, that their sons and daughters would prophecy, that their old men would dream dreams, and their young men would see visions.** Let them know the Lord Jesus Christ and the free gift of salvation you have for each individual in Algeria. 

-We lift up the poor in Algeria and for your compassion and mercy to pour out upon these individuals. God we know that you raise the poor from the dust and lift the needy from the ash heap, that you seat them with princes and have them inherit a throne of honor. Lord, we pray for your poor and ask for your supernatural provision of food, water, clothing, shelter, and clean sanitation facilities. We lift up the fatherless, and pray that you God would be their father, and teach them the ways of your son Jesus Christ.

-We pray over the victims of human trafficking in Algeria. Father, breakthrough in love and let the chains be broken on the enslaved, on the abused, and on your precious daughters. Lord Jesus, we pray that their hope is found in you. Let your blood bring redemption, and let your love pour out upon them that they might know that you are a God of justice. Father, bring an end to human trafficking in Algeria. We ask for conviction of the Holy Spirit to fall on the guilty, and that you would bring these individuals to repentance and salvation.    

-Father, help your Christians to love you with all their heart, all their soul, and all their strength.**** Let this love release an overflowing presence of the Holy Spirit within Algeria.
